6ldlcSluen III IHt VdTiOuS COuHtTlcS were watching us and looking at what we were doing and were considering the methods with which we had tried to solve the different problems before us. They said they were interested in us because the things we were doing today were the things they would have to do tomorrow, or the day after. You are the pioneers in solving social problems in America and for the whole world.
 Spirit of Democracy
 Tt is for you to solve problems in the spirit of democracy. I need not say that that imposes a very grave responsibility on us.
 Two other things impressed me. One was that the ordinary man. the man to whom life was pretty hard, was looking to us to realize the possibility of hap pipess on earth. The man who suffers in justice is looking toward this country as the place in which he would be free from the pressure of much injustice as the place where the ordinary man could have a chance in life.
 There is another side to this picture. Everywhere I went there was a certain astonishment mixed with a much less pleasing feeling. felt over the accounts or business and political corruption that come to Europe as to what happens here In America. I think you will acquit of any great admiration of the mere nlultimillonaire at home. But I like him even less abroad. want to call you attention to the fact that l have said the mere multimilionaire. There are a good many men in every walk of life and the man who is a good American, who has done his duty and has a great fortune. ;c IaA t< kAor rtxr nnk Hd Is unworthy of any one to deny him if he deserves it.
 Trust in Riches
 T am speaking of the same class of multimillionaires of whom 1t was said 2000 years ago that 1t was more dini- cult for them to get to Heaven than for a camel to go through the eye of a needle. It Is the rich man who trusts to his riches that am speaking of. the multi. millionaire whose sole title to distinction is the fact that he Is multimillionaire. Such a one is a poor Christian and is a very objectionable American exhibit abroad I was always ashamed when
 l saw that type of a man accepted abroad as the typical American and I felt even more ashamed when things happened there which gave the impression abroad | that corruption in business, in politics and lawlessness and brutal violence ob- | tained here more than they did in any other countryq. Every act of corruption | in our business or political life and acts | of violence by a mob Is a blow at demo- cracy, 1t Is blow at seif-government The mob in lynching criminal puts it. self down on the same level of infamy that the criminal stands on. The big man | of business who swindles the public or debauches a legislature. the grating | politician who blackmails corporation, are all enemies of democracy and self government. Reports of such corruption
 and lawlessness bring joy to the heart | of every reactionary in Europe who
 wants to see self-sovernment fail and
 who Is glad to sec that government by the people on a large scale cannot suc- ceed."

DAWSON SPEAKS
AT LABOR TEMPLE
Candidate for Congress Attacks
Representative Hayes as
"Vile" Politician

On a special train of six coaches and
400 strong, the San Jose boosters of
Mayor Charles w. Dawson, candidate
for the republican nomination to con-
gress from the fifth district, pulled into
the Valencia and Twenty-fifth streets
depot and made demonstration
through the Mission last night. Led
by a brass band and flaming retire,
they paraded to, the Building Trades
temple, Fourteenth and Guerrero streets.
A Forster introduced Dawson, who
attacked the record of Congressman
Hayes in Washington and the politics
of Hayes in San Jose. He declared that
Hayes was an insurgent and had no
right to ask the republican nomination.
Moreover, Dawson said, Hayes was an
enemy of organized labor.
Republicans are not insurgents, -
said Dawson. 81 don't believe in that

Tariff Taxes.

Republican spellbinders, headed by
Mr.. Roosevelt, have felt compelled
TO misrepresent the revenue produc-
ed from the new tariff law. Like
lot of parrots they are all repeat
ing the criminal delusion OF the pub
licity bureau Of the Republican par
ty that "the new tariff law has turn
ed deficiency into surplus. Yet
the Treasury Departments daily fl
nancial statement shows that the eX-
cess of expenditure Is increasing as
the fiscal year advances, though less
than in 1908 and 1909. The report
for October 21st shows the deficiency
since July 1st to be S25. ,9S7. in
Guiding the Panama expenditures of
S11. .SG6,G54. The customs receipts
for the month, and including Octo-
ber 21st. were $17.779.234, whereas
for the same time in 1903 the re-
ceipts were s1S,430.615. But sup
posing the Republican contention
we're trne, and that the customs re-
ceipts had increased enough to wipe
out the deficiency of revenue, it
would only show that the tariff taxes
paid by the people are heavier than
ever before.

The Crook" and Jackass Club.

The Colonel has organized new
club to supersede the old Ananias
Club, which, as a political asset, ha:
become stale and Improbable. The
new club has been organized espec-
tally for crooks and jackasses'
and the Colonel has named Judge
Anderson, Of Indiana, as presi lent,
who, he declared, Is an adept In both
characters. Other members nomi-
mated by the Colonel are, former
Justice Baldwin Of Connecticut, nov
Democratic candidate for governor;
John A. Dix, Democratic candidate
for governor of New York.. Judge
Holt; Judge Holmes, and some other
Justices of the Supreme Court, with
plenty more candidates in view. All
Of these have not been formally de-
clared "a crook and a jackasS", but
they belong to the same category,
and an appropriate name for the
club-from the Colonel's standpoint
would seem to be the Crook and
Jackass Club. All who oppose Mt
Roosevelt are crooks, and all who
do not do his bidding are jackasses;
so, a, to mum bers, the future Of the
club is assured.
