ing, the best opportunity for educa-
ton, leisure for travel, recreation and
pleasure.
Socialists claim that II is brutally
unjust to reward the drones of the
human hive with the wealth which
the workers alone create, and expect
the workers to forever submit to the
robbery and starve in silence.
Socialists demand that all the
means of life. upon which all the
people depend for a living shall be
owned by all the people collectively
and democratically managed by its
owner, which would guarantee work
for all, but no drudgery; Jobs for all,
but no masters and no slaves.
Socialists demand that the workers
stop voting for their. masters, and
elect members of their own class who
know what Is the trouble, and have
a certain remedy for II.
Socialism means equal opportunity
for all.
Socialism means cooperation with
all other workers in obtaining by the
least labor the necessities OF life.
Socialism means that profit in its
many forms will cease, and all things
will be made for use. not to sell,
crime, vice, drunkenness and the
school evil' will ultimately cease
because the changed social conditions
will cease breeding them.
Socialism means worldwide peace
and plenty. Wars are for profit.
There will be no profit, hence no
war. Nation will not lift up It's
arm against nation, neither shall they
learn war any more" But instead
I'VE will build houses and live in
them, we will plant vineyards and
eat the fruit thereof" For the first
time in the worlds history every
human being will be above the fear
of want. A world full of happy beings
redeemed from the age long cures OF
green and poverty will fill the earth
with Joy, laughter and song, and life
will have become a worthy and a
noble thing.

ing times OF the campaign, when II
seemed that organized labor would
oppose him unless he receded from
his position, few people in the coun-
TRY doubted that President Taft
would at the proper moment use ex-
ecutive influence to bring about an
honest revision of the tariff down
ward. This confidence was treasured
by the statement of Secretary Mac
Veagh in his Chicago speech. when
he systematically expressed It that
the revision would be "down, but not
down and out" In other words, the
principle of protection would be ad-
hered to, in accordance with the
views of an immense majority of the
people; but the Republican party's
pledge OF an honest revision down
ward within the bounds of that doc
trine would be kept.
Some, however, wavered when the
senate took the Payne bill from the
house, and the finance committee
raised nearly every item. They
thought that when the senate finished
it's consideration. that would be an
end, and 1t would remain only for
the president to sign or veto the bill.
The president knew better. He left
no doubt in the minds of anyone
where he stood; but he did not re-
lieve the senators of any of their re-
sponsibility. He assumed none him
self that did not belong strictly to
his department. He permitted Aid
rich and that group Of Democratic
senators. who represent the sugar,
oil and cotton industries to go to the
limit of their perfidy unrestrained
He gave to the Republican senators
from the middle west an opportunity
to prove to their constituency their
courage in opposing a majority of
their party organization.
Then the bill went to a conference
committee, composed of representa-
tives of the senate and the house,
who will try to agree for their re-
spective bodies on the schedules. It
became incumbent on them to ascer-
tain how the president stood Now,
remember. President Taft never in
vited those conferees to discuss the
schedules with him. He knew they
would try to "feel him OUT. That
gave him his opportunity. He told
them "plain out" that they must en-
act a tariff, revising the schedules
downward and putting raw materials
including oils on the free list, with
the house maximum and minimum
schedules, eliminating the senate
joker that would raise all schedules
% per cent next March. and provid-
ng for a corporation income tax. He
stood pat on that declaration. and he
will win, and Aldrich and Bailey and
the Louisiant and Oklahoma senator's
who Joined with him, will be, not
only discredited for their perfidy, but
beaten.

Manufacturers Record ON Kentucky
Roads.
Referring to a recent editorial in
the Manufacturers Record, "Preach-
ing the Gospel of Good Roads" Gov
ernor Augustus f. Wilson, of Ken
lucky, writes: "The editorial is a
very Interesting and persuasive state
ment of the case, much more effec-
tive than some / have seen that were
more in detail" That message Is in
dieative of the aroused interest in the
question of improved highways, upon
which bears a letter from Hon. NJ. c.
Rankin, commissioner OF agriculture,
labor and statistics, to the Manufac-
turers' Record, in which he says:
1--WE have had a system of road
working in Kentucky that has not
been satisfactory. II has been done
by free labor of the counties. | mean
by free labor that the people owning
the property and living in the state
and all voters between the ages of
21 and As years were compelled by
law to work as many as six days In a
year on the public roads. This sys-
TEN has been done away with. and
we have been working the roads by
taxation in the last few years. We
find that the money raised from this
source is not sufficient to keep our
roads in repair and improve them.
Now we propose, at our next state
election in November. 1909. to so
amend our constitution that we can
lend the credit of the state to the
counties and the counties can bond
themselves TO the extent of 5 per cent
Of the taxable property in each coun-
ty to build more roads and improve
those that they already have. We
are having this question discussed.

amended SO that we can

Washington, July 17.-Those In
diana literary fellows are causing the
National Press club of Washington
no end of worry Newspaper para
graphers may all scribe squibs about
the multiplicity of the Hoosier au-
thors and talk about the luxuriant
growth OF literature on the banks OF
the wabash-it sounds funny and all
that. but the library committee OF the
Press club is up against a real prob
lem and isn't inclined TO treat the
over-production OF Indiana writers
with laughter. -,
The trouble came about through
the agency Of one Thomas II. Shipp'
who used to be city editor OF the IN
dlanapolls News and who, although
now respectfully above the newspaper
game as secretary OF the Joint com
mlttee on conservation. still has a
warm regard for the correspondents
When the Press club moved 10 It's
new quarters a month or 30 ago, a
big library was planned, wherein
hard-worked newspapermen might
seek surcease from the tariff and 9TH
or dry subjects. A library committee
was accordingly appointed to seek
contributions and install about sixty
feet OF books.
Tom Ship. who happened 10 be
one OF the leading lights Of the club
and who. incidentally. halls from In
diana. Informed the committee that
he thought he could persuade a pub
fishing house In indianapolis, one OF
the members Of the firm heing known
TO him personally. 10 donate a set OF
Indiana authors TO the club. The
committee was overjoyed. and told
Tom to do bis worst.
Ship made a successful touch. lie
got a letter from the book frm stat
ing that they'd sent a complete as
sortment Of Hoosier literature that
n all the volumes by Indiana au-
thors they'd ever pubhshed The as-
sortment totalled up 70 30 books II
included George Ado. James whit
comb Riley, Booth Harrington aud
other famous writer's. Tom Ship
was so pleased that he tipped on
some OF the Indiana correspondents
and they wrote nice little pieces about
II for their papers.
Right there tr0t BILE butted In, The
FIRST mail back to Washington
brought the library committee this
letter:
Dear S.rs;---I notice that an In
disrapolis publishing house has do
mated a set OF books written :, lndi-
ana authors TO the Press club. beg
TO state that that collection Is not
complete. My own work does not
appear 10 have been sent YOU. II
wasn't printed by that firm. and I
haven't any doubt but that they pur-
posely neglected mentioning my au-
thorship out OF revenge-at any rate
they refused to publish my book. and
/ had II privately printed later. In
order to make your library complete
and remedy the glaring deficiency In
not having my work. am forwarding
you copy under separate cover
Yours, etc"
The next day another misslve
couched IN similar terms was re-
eelved Then came more Books
fairly flowed In on the library com
mlttee. and letters arrived by every
mail-they all roundly berated the
