streets. this afternoon with his address
on The Call of the Century" The
gatnerlng was conducted by the Young
MEMS Christian association. and a musi-
cal program. preceded the address ;,
This is to be strenuous century,
OF the times. "A young man of the
twentieth. century gave US the watch
word OF the age, a strenuous l1fe. We
nave made this world very small TO
reach around. 1t has been made small
by the discoveries man has made, and
these discoveries have made us all Ia
borers.
There was time when a man knew
what his politics were If he lived in a
certain locality. For one locality held
one way, and the next another. When
the Roosevelt regime passes no man
Will know what he is in politics.
some say democracy means equality;
1t does not mean anything of the kind.
1t means growing inequality, that the
men who can do things may rise.
The music was under the direction of DR..
Q. s. Dean, who sang a tenor solo. Rev.
A. w. Palmer of the Plymouth Congre-

fOR-PURITY
IN CIVIC AFFAIRS
Rev. H. j. Vosburgh Denounces
Corrupt Corporate Interests
and Purchased Press

OAKLAND May 24.-"The Christian
citizens of this country must learn to
vote with their eyes open and TO put
their trust in no political information
except that which they know comes
from straight source. Everywhere
today there is great moral movement
In politics." declared Rev. HI. J. Vos-
Sburgh In discourse tonight at the
First Baptist church. The clergyman
scathingly denounced the fragrant as-
gressions of corporate interests upon
the rights of the common people and
bitterly arraigned the purchased press
Our age is thaObeginning of q great
epoch in the history Of the world, ne
continued. 'It is period of industrial
and economic emancipation. Every,
where we look We see great morai
and civic movement toward the reailza-
tion of higher ideals of human living
PLEA FOR SQUARE DEAL
Then there are the great movements
against racetrack gambling, against the
saloon and for the Improvement or the
marriage laws and the preservation
OF the home. Summing up the motives
every man q square deal.''
AS long as we have laws Wnicn
allow any man or party OF men 10
control the common possessions Of men.
man Is free until the truth has made
him free. The movement for civic purity
is fundamentally a religious movement
Some political parties are so tough
that they can turn aside from the prin-
cfples which lie beneath this movement
and still continue to lead a miserable
existence But history will. repeat itself
and the f1ttest shall survive.
SCORES PURCHASED PRESS
I'm many parts of the country it is
we'll known fact that newspapers are
bought by corporations and politicians
If not to take an active part in fight
ing the forces of civic righteousness
in political campaign, at least to
keep silent and thus blind the people
to the iniQuities for which they are
asked to vote. I do not want 10 IN
dulge in general or rfotous condemna-
ton of the local press. but the truth
cannot long be concealed.
THE love OF money is the root OF
all evil. We are today in the presence
Of an ancient foe--a foe as old as man.
In. this country we have acquired un-
paralleled wealth. We have grown
rich with amazing rapidity and the
whole world has gone crazy over
money.
Money has made the corporations.
and the corporations will do things for
which, individuals would be sent to the
penitentiary, because they know that
the responsibility for their acts is SO
divided that the officers Of the corpora
ton need not fear the punishment
which would be meted out to them as
individuals"
