road, beginning at Hickman Switch,
in East Hickman, running south Of
town and terminating in West Hick-
man, was let Saturday to Pat Brady,
the contractor who Is just finishing

In the east part of town, the sur

the wagon road will make the usual
crossing.
The old track leading out on the
north side of town has been in bad
shape for some time. and the travel

There can be no absolute private
title to land. ALE private titles,
whether called fee simple or other
wise, are and must be subordinate to

strives to prevent land from being
used for The purpose of exploitation
and speculation. 1t demands the COLI
lectfve possession, cont rol or manage
ment OF land to whatever extent may
be necessary to attain that end. 1t is
not opposed to the occupation and pos

Revolutionary force.
The all significant thing in the
social revolution is the fact that the
working class is slowly and surely
conpuering the world. Not as Alex
ander and Napoleon conquered. for
they conquered but to enslave and
exploit, and victory to them meant
only the degradation of the working
class. But the twentieth century is
destined to see this working class
conquer the world. Not with bayonet
and knife, not with cannon and gat-
ling gun, not by spreading death and
desolation over Il devaSted land as
ever in the past, but through an Or
ganized political movement that is
international in its scope and charac-
ter and that Drecludes the possibility
of competition, war and industrial
strife.
Already we are far on the way
towards the contamination Of this
great hope. Already natures forces
have been cnslaved and made to
turn with tirelcss arm the count
