Answer.
Mr.. Bugg's letter is very interest
ing. There are three reasons why I
have not had much to say about the
Howling Dervishes of Socialism, re-
Gently:
CD We are selling the book which
exposes them, confutes them, and
reduces them to the absurd;
CD They have lost so much
ground, during the last few months,
that they have ceased to be a ma
tional menace;
CD They have shifted their ground
so often and so much that I am wait
ing for them to get located, before
shifting our batteries to get the
range.
A1c1l 10 huOWo FC1y WCl1 WudC was
meant by 'the dirty work" That has
always stumped the Socialists, just as
the Money Question does. To put
''the dirty work" problem in different
language
Who will act as scavenger, under
Socialism? Who will be ordered to
the sewer, the sink, the cess-pool?
And suppose that the men and women
assigned to the nasty jobs refuse to
go? Will they be coerced? If so,
how, and by whom?
Mr.. Harris knows as we'll as [ do
that the Moses of Socialism, Her
Bebel avowedly wages relentless war
on our marriage system, and boldly
breaches Free Love. He, Bebel, like
wise maintains that under Socialism,
religion would "quietly disappear.
The European Socialists demand a
new order of things, in which there
would be no laws, no courts, no jails.
no legislatures, no officers of the law,
no Presidents, no Governors. In our
large cities, the American Socialists
go as far as their European brethren.

Dear Sir: In the advertising mat
ter in one of your pamphlets on So
cialism, you ask why the Socialists do
not come into your magazine and dis
cuss Socialism. I would be glad to
have that opportunity. Please inform
me if you will publish few brief ar
ticles on Socialism from me, and let
me know the length of the articles
you mostly prefer. Yours truly,

answer came there none
The great cafe with dawn was gray. the ancient

Then rose they all throughout the hall, in awe
each head was bowed.
Their glasses filled. while each was thrilled, nor

But each belated tribute paid to jake Wiener

AS outlined exclusively in The
Mirror, changes will be made in the
lineup of the M. s. P. team. Old
Repeater having shown the proper
credentials we gracefully step aside
and he will now display his ability
as au organizer. That dissension is
rife among the players is truly con-
ceded on all sides. We can no
longer conceal the facts. The team
is split into two factions: those FOR
and OPPOSED to Old Repeater as the
man to lead them. Members of the
opposing factions do not speak to
each other when they meet on the
street. With the famous first base
man at the helm the ak will be
welded with neatness and dispatch.
Members of the team are wondering
who will be the first to draw blue
envelope. Old Repeater calmly as
serts that only one man is absolutely
sure of retaining his job and he is
Old Hutch the ground keeper.
The big trade of players by the
Chicago and Boston clubs has set
the tongues to wagging in these two
cities. The Boston club received
King, Weaver, Griffin and Kaiser
in exchange for catcher Peaches"
Graham, pitcher Cliff Curtis, and
outfelders Goode and Collins. The
indications are that Chicago gets
the better of the bargain. Graham
is reliable, hardworking catcher
and good batsman while King has

who can swear to the truth of every

and perhaps several voters Sunday.

Tailor Shop Notes
By Pc reg.

It is rumored that there will be
no more of the checkered cloth
purchased for second grade suits
and that all the inmates will be
dressed in the gray with cheyron
on the arm to designate the grade.
Tailor Nelson was somewhat af-
fected by the heat during the past
week. but has recovered and is as
genial as ever.
It is rumored that guard Burns
very kindly offered to take charge
of the tailor shop squad at drill on
Sundays, providing Tailor Nelson
would secure permission from the
Warden to let him do 50. Mr.. Burns
thinks if this were done the tailor
shop bows would surely cop the ex-
ira plug.
Mr.. G. J. r. is little nervous in
his new duties as supervisor of the
laundry, but is getting out the work
in very creditable manner just the
same.
Roller towels have been very
scarce article during the past two
weeks owing to the failure of mate
rial arriving which was ordered
some time ago.
Business is little slack just now,
but prospects are good for big
crop this fall and that will start
things booming again.
1t is a very rare occasion to have
visitors call at the tailor shop. But
Rev. and Mrs. Budlong and two
of their friends dropped in last week
to see how we do things here.

has not forgotten US, and that The

Now you printers: If you cut out
any Of my copy this week Til start
writing for the Gazette, and tell
them the reason we buy tooth brush
es, toilet articles ETC., because they
don't seem to understand what we
want with such things. Course, if
a fellow is used to wearing wooden
shoes and cleaning his teeth with
gunny sack, he never would know
what we buy them for.
1T is easier to drive some men to

provided.
Artesian wells not in use should
be partially plugged. To plug a
well completely so that no water
can escape will very likely ruin
it in short time as the water
will find some other channel and
either refuse to flow through the
casing or flow with greatly dimin-
ishod volume. On the other hand
to allow the well to flow full vol
ume all the time is very wasteful
of water and will likely ruin con
siderable land making the ground
near the well Toggy and cold. In
early days San Luis valley farmers
used to irrigate with a small
stream of water, all the farm
ers along the ditch would try to
irrigate at the same time. OF
late years, however, it is usual
to use large streams and flow the
water over the ground as quickly
as possible, each farmer taking
water from the ditch in turn. The
last method is found much more
satisfactory as the ground warns
up soon after watering and crops
make much faster growth than
under the old way.
