KIRKPATRICK SAYS SOCIALISM
is REMEDY FOR EXISTING ILLS

conditions were hell, but said that there
We're just as good men among the cap
ltahsts as among the working class,
but that the whole system was wrong
He stated that the money power was
urging the increase of the standing
army, the development of the militia
and the development of rifle practice
even among school children for the
purpose of checking the laboring classes
when those classes shall rise in their
might and demand the right to steady
and lucrative employment. He informed
the audience that the capitalists would
have no sentiment IN their treatment
or the workingman, and that the work.
ingnan must look out for himself Mr.
Kirkpatrick then stated that the only
remedy for existing evils are the prin-
ciples of socialism.
After the address collection was
taken up to defray the expenses of the
meeting.

Professor George Kirkpatrick, who
addressed d meeting held under the
auspices of the Socialist party last
night at the library assembly hall. says
that this is a hard world, and that it is
getting harder every day. Mr.. Kirk
patrick was introduced by Rev. William
t. Brown, and said in part that pres
ent conditions are the result of the law
OF evolution which can neither be re-
pealed nor amended by man. Every
thing that grows will outgrow some
thing, and that society is now out
growing its present habits and customs
Society has outgrown many of its re-
ligious customs and beliefs. and also in
dustrial educational and political be-
liefs- He stated that society has out
grown chattel slavery and serfdom, and
It is certain that il viii outgrow pres
ent conditions and industrial methods
Mr.. Kirkpatrick stated that in the
present era everybody is seeking after
success, and showed by the statements
of Hugh NJ Rose of the American Bar
association; Andrew Carnegie. Richard
T. Ely of the University OF Wisconsin,
and John Mitchell, president of the
United Mine Workers of America. that
success is harder of achievement now
than ii was twenty years ago for men
of moderate means. Slavery and serf-
dom were necessary for the develop
ment of mankind. and the capitalistic
system has also served its purpose in
human Development, but he stated that
capital was not entitled to immortality.
and the capitalistic system must give
way 10 newer conditions.
1t was impossible TO push or force
society into this new order OF affairs.
BY the laws of evolution society will
gradually proceed into the new order.
Mr.. Kirkpatrick then went on TO show
that should all the factories and manu-
factories of the country run at full
capacity and give work to all who de-
sired il, the over-production would
swamp the market. He estimated that
there are 1000, 900 workers out of en-
ployment at the present time. and that
there are 100000 women and children
dependent on those workers He an
nounced. however, that he was bring

as true the statement of the newspaper
that James s. Sherman, the Republican

president of the match trust, Mr.. Bryan
openly corrected his mistake. into which,
he said. he fell by inadvertence, declar-

Republican Desperation.

From what we have learned from the
reports sent to us and from reports that
come directly from the Republican or
ganization, you are already prepared to
vote, and you have given such strong in
timation of how you expect to vote that
the Republican national committee finds
1t necessary at the last moment to turn
all its guns on Ohio to save the candi-
dates own state to him. 1t is worth
something for US to know that the plat
form of the Republican party has already
been repudiated by the Republicans of
Ohio; that the Republican candidate has
already been repudiated by the Repub-
hcanS Of his own state, and il within two
weeks Of the election they become so
frightened that they have to devote their
energies to the rescue of this state from
the opposition; If in his own state where
he has lived, in Ohio, which has been the
citadel of Republicanism, they have to
make this desperate fight in his behalf
what chance has he in other states where
the conditions have not been so favor
able TO him and his party? If, my
friends. these gigantic efforts are neces-
sary in Ohio, what hope have they in In
diana? If these efforts are necessary in
Ohio, how desperate must be their chance

Trust maanate Did Preside.

But. my friends, I am not yet through
with the incident 1 believe the editor of
this paper does not deny that the presi-
dent of the match trust did preside at a
Republican meeting Mr.. Roosevelt said
that the law-defying corporations had no
reason TO fear my election. and when
challenged him to give the name of one
trust official in the United States who
was supporting me he scanned the coun-
try and found not one. He found law
yer in St Louis who in a case was the
personal attorney of the president of a
subordinate branch of a trust, and within
twenty-four hours it developed that the
Republican national committeeman from
the state of Missouri was the attorney
for the trust while the Democrat was the
attorney for the president of the trust
company. 1t developed that Mr. Taft
himself had about three years ago rec

Appeal to laborinq Men.

After again speaking of the notice Civ
en- by the New York Central to the en-
ployes of a cut of 10 per cent in case of
his election, Mr.. Bryan concluded with
the following appeal to the laboring men:
''Laboring men, the ballot was given to
you. not to the railroad superintendent.
and it was given to you because you have
a right to protect yourselves and your
children, and if they can threaten you
with a reduction of wages, if these men
at the head of great industries hold their
employees as their body servants and their
retainers and vote them in bunch. how
can the American people secure redress
against any grievance, however great?"
