SOCIALIST SPEAKING

| S. w. Motley, of Twin Falls, is
making Socialist speeches in this part
Of the state, and spoke at the Com
mercial club rooms on Tuesday and
Wednesday evenings.
Mr.. Motley was the Socialist can
didate for governor of this state in
1.-THE last campaign, and .iokingly re-
marks that he. did not get elected
for the same reason that Mr.. Brady
did notlack of votes. '59s
Mr. Motley discusses very interest
ingly the questions of socialism, in
volving always the matters looking to
the betterment of the conditions Of
humanity without leaving anybody
the worse for the changes that might
be made. 1t is such deep subject
and contemplates such radical
changes, bringing society to work on
SO much simpler plans that the tend
ency of the practical man is to scout
the IDEAS advanced rather than to
get in sympathy with it and look inn
partially into it,
II we were working on the socialis-
tic plans now, and somebody should
go about proposing the present COM
plicated way of doing things, what
a howl there would be for room
for him in the Asylum!

Only a few days ago ar
entire block of the thriving
little town Of Carlisle, KY,
was entirely destroyed by
fire, entailing a loss of $3.50,
600, and had it not been fol
aid from nearby towns the
entire town probably would
have burned. Had they had
the facilities for erecting wa.
ter works that we have, and
taken advantage of them,
ninety per cent of this loss
would not have occurred.
Water works for West
Liberty would not only be a
protection but would be a
great convenience in other
ways too numerous to men
ton, and besides it would be
a paying investment.
The same power t h a t
would pump the water into
the tank would run a laun-
dry or an ice plant or both,
conveniences and enterprises
of which we stand badly in
need and which would pay a
handsome dividend on the
invested.
Let the enterprising citi-
zens of West Liberty think
Of these things and talk
them over with their neigh
bors until the sentiment be-
comes so christalized that it
will be nothing short of a
demand and then the man
and the means will not be

Protection From Fire For West
Liberty. -

On these hot, dry. days,
and especially when there's
a strong wind blowing, we
naturally think Of the dam
ger from fire and wonder
what we would do in case, Of
a coptiagration in West Lib
ertN at a time. when most. Of
the fire fighting population
were absent. These thoughts
are not inspired by pes8inl-
ism but are the result Of a
real soiicitude>for tie safety
Of cur own and our neigh
bors homes and places Of
business.
That which goes up in
smoke is lost and the burn
ing Of a business house,
dwelling or barn is a loss to
the. entire community, al
though it falls heaviest on
he owner Of the burned
property or some insurance
company.
West Liberty has the best
natural facilities for fire pro-
lection Of any town in the
mountains, ii her people
would only avail themselves
of them. Think what a pro-
lection water works. would
be to us.if we had a tank OF
sufficient size on the Mcclure

ces of business. How many

will tell things Mr.. Horton has
done that has endeared him in
the hearts Of ALL APPRECIATIvE
PEOPLE, but Of course there are
people who never look at both
sides Of things and are always
for a man who stands in for
cliques, combines and lawlessness
in general. Now, my dear Pig
head, don't be surprised when |
inform you that Mr.. Horton was
chosen Chairman of the Demo-
cratic Campaign Committee of
Wolfe county couple of years
ago and by his unceasing and
untiring efforts caused the big
geStDemocratic vote to be cast
in that county that was ever
known, thus bringing victory
and honor to his party. Mr..
Horton has always contributed
to charity and is a friend to the
great common people, worthy of
their support and admiration, re-
CARELESS of politics.
Now Pighead, what has Mr..
Dyer ever done for the people or
party? George, no doubt, was a
good soldier and was advanced
to the lowest Office in the ranks
Of the army, and no doubt if he
were still there he would have
been General by now. Did he
ever fire a gun in defense of the
stars and stripes? Did he ever
bring victory to his party? Did
he ever do anything for the peo-
pie in general? Because a man
has been in the army and held a
petty office does it qualify him
to represent rs, 000 honest noun
taineers in the legislative halls
Of old "Kaintuck?" 1t is true
he is good barber and farmer
and an honest man, but voters
he is not the man you want to
send to make the laws that gov
ern you. Mr.. Stamper is next. |
