we know when TO fly and also know
when and how to go after you and
your ideas. You have often heard
when the bees swarm in July just let
them fly, but am month ahead OF
that and Butterfly" is two months
ahead and we all are ahead of you.
We belong to that band that is work
ing today for ourselves. but there are
some that when they get little start,
they don't know what is for the bet
ter. Can we take your word for thisr
No, we cannot. Has either the de-
mocratic or socialist party ever done
anything for us, or will they ever be
any benefit to US. You may say yes,
but how do you know itf We can't
take guess work hoping for success.
What do you know about it. 1t is
only theory. Can you make any
thing else out of it but dishonesty,
trying TO lead the people intoa thing
that they don't know anything about.
If preacher gets into pulpit and
don't preach the truth, what will be-
come of him at the Judgement We
must look back and think. If we
don't what will become of usH So,
''Uncle Tom, please don't further
preach to the people anything you
don't know yourself. You cannot
preach such policy and make fulfilling
success to the good honest working
class of people. There is no doubt but
what we all can make a good, honest
living when we try. Do you really
believe such policy would aid and
further help the poor, hard working
man if he would seat himself down
and wait until this comes to himf
Do you further believe you can make
people believe in such policy No,
we all can see a little ahead. We are
not so blind or so weak in our know
ledge to take such example as this.
We know where the United States
would go to if we would pull off on
such examples as these put up. There
is not proof enough yet for us to make
a change. We don't want to change
our living prosperity for dead issues.
''Uncle Tom, you say there is no
good policy in putting people to tramp
ing. What ground have you to think
such3 You can seat some men down
with fortune and they will bust up
and go tramping. There is no sense
in any such proposition as that. You
,an pump and keep pumping and
you can't pump such in our mind. |
You might preach it into some of the |
people, but hope they will find out |
better before they get into it too deep.
We hope they will realize and consid-
II the matter.
Democracy and Socialism are not
what they are represented to be when
t is summed up.

''Uncle Tom" / don't believe you
