The explosion took place at II o'clock

THE DESTRUCTION
OF INDIvIDUALIsNI

The international conferences OF
Socialists, held In Paris In Septem-
ber. 1900. declared:
"That II Is the duty OF all Socla,-
lists to make clear to all the value OF
municipal activity. to recognize In
all municipal forms the Importance
which attaches 10 them as embryos
OF collectivist states, and TO endeav-
or 10 mnnicipalize such public serv-
Ices as urban transport service, edu-
cation. shops, bakeries. water sup
ply. ETC."
Thus the issuels drawn between
Socialism and individuallsm. There
Is no halfway ground. as the ex-
perlsnce OF English cities abundantly
proves. Glasgow engages In "a diff
ferent lines OF business; rabbits are
bred by Torquay; Liverpool raises
beets, and one English town actually
raises chickens. A momentum Is
gained from the munlcipalization OF
larger utilities that inevitably carries
the city into further trading, thus
competing directly with a large num-
ber of inhabitants.
A fundamental error In the belief
that leads to the Soclallstic pro-
gram is that all persons have the
same needs aud desires. The adyO-
Gates OF the doctrine overlook the
fact that as the complexity OF mems
lives increase their needs and de-
sires increase; that II may be neces-
sary for one man to use a phone,
while his neighbor has no possible
need for II.
In an indiyldualistic community
the government may be an unpre-
iudioed arbitrator, but in a Social
istie one IL must always fight for It's
own rights. Its natural tendency Is
TO rush out all competition. The
oyergrown. evilly administered cor
poration may do harm in an individ-
ualistlc community. but when the
corporation and the government are
one the combination has Infinitely
more power to injure. and does not
fail to use IL. In the former case the
people may divorce corporation in
huence from the government. but In
the latter the two are combined and
may crush the people.-Professor
Frank II. II. Roberts on Municipal

MINUTES
FILLED
WITH JOY

Boston, Feb. 9.-Some remarkable
demonstrations were given in public
today by L. T. Cooper, who is intro
ducing for the first time in Boston
the preparations which created a sen
sation in other cities recently visited
by him.
Cooper Is a remarkable character,
with peculiar and original ideas. and
the announcement of his coming to
the Hub City created widespread in
terest.
AS q consequence, when Il was
learned that he would appear in pub
lie, the place selected for his head
quarters was crowded, some coming
merely to get glimpse of the man
himself, others to test his skill in
overcoming disease. AS nearly as
could be learned the facts in regard
to the demonstration were these:
| At o'clock In the afternoon the
young man agreed to show what one
of his remedies would do for deaf
ness, and agreed to make any one
present who was afflicted with deaf.
ness hear in less than three min.
utes.
There were many deaf people pres
ent, and about a dozen OF these were
given the demonstration, consisting
OF single application OF one of the
Cooper preparations.
The hearing OF these people was
then tested after an interval of be-
tween two and three minutes. The
test consisted OF questions put to
them in an ordinary conversational
tone at distances varying from five
to thirty feet.
The results were remarkable In
the extreme. Some of these people
who were treated had been deaf for
nnmber of year when the first
question was asked, look OF amaze
ment would spread over their faces
and they would forget TO answer the
question. AS the questions were re-
peated the surprised look would
give way TO one OF delight. Many
were so affected that they burst into
tears and were scarcely able to an
swer the question.
In no single instance. so far as
could be learned, would an individu.
al fall to hear. Many were able TO
hear a finger snap at distance Of
thirty feet. At the request OF Mr.
Cooper, questions were put to them
by their friends. or by various spec
tators. in an ordinary tone OF voice,
and the questions were readily an
swered
In giving an account OF these dem
onstrations. Mr.. Cooper said;
THE preparation used is not the
one with which accomplish most,
as my New Discovery. as II is called,
and to which owe my success. is for
the treatment of all forms of stomach
trouble and the general breaking
down of the system that follows in
the wake OF diseases OF this charac-
ter
THE stomach Is the seat OF great
many troubles; for instance, my rem
edy will relieve thousands OF people
OF rheumatism in this city. simply by
getting the stomach in working or
der"
Many people seen who were pres
ent at this demonstration assert posi-
lively that Cooper undoubtedly made
these deaf people hear again.
