Tho Danville Advocate nad a nice
little fit of its own last week because

Senators, and while they have not
the right to do so under the present
law, we believe as rule popular
primary should be held to determine
the peoples choice for this office. But
the present case is one in which We
think the State Committee did exact
IS right in not including the senator
ship in the primary. When the OPP
ponents Of Senator McCreary saw
that the committee would call pri-
mary, they made a fierce demand for
d senatorial call. too. Their cslcula-
lions were transparent 10 all but the
vriest tyro in politics. They figured
tfrat with Ollie James. an avowed
johnson man, running for senator,
and considering James popularity in
western Kentucky. they could easily

tremendous strength which McCreary
has with the people. They yelled
first because a convention was not

similar combinations In that to de-
feat McCreary. And when a primary
vas ordered. they saw but one hope
left In defeat the peoples choice for
governor, and that was by forming an
alliance OF their gubernatorial candi-
date with a candidate for United
States Senator.
Our good friend OF the Advocate
seems to have swallowed without due
rejection. a goodly portion Of the
dope handed out by Ollie James and
the anti-McCreary people at Louis
Vile last week. We do not believe
that the State Committee was con.

the Yellow Pine Manufacturers as
sociation that controlled prices. He
said the only curtailment of output
recommended by the association was
that of 1904 mentioned yesterday by
R. A. Long, of the Long-Bell Lumber

Mr. Keith explained there were 9TH
er business reasons for company
curtoiling its output. For instance,
he said that in 1906, the company
could not get the facilities to handle
its regular output and was forced to
crrtail it rather than pay labor to cut
timber that could not be shipped.
Mr.. Keith denied there was any

of yellow pine, or to limit competition

Collective Ownership.

Collective Ownership.
The collective ownership as pro-
posed by socialism does not mean di-
viding up the ownership among all the
citizens. It means that every citizen
will have an interest in the collectively
owned property just as he has an un-
divided and indevisible interest in the
collectively owned public street. This
insrres to every citizen the right to
laror because it gives him access TO
ard use of the machinery Of produc-
ton. lust as he has access to and use
of the public streets.
Socialism does not mean the COL
lective ownership of all property. put
only Of that property whose private
ownership gives the power of exploita-
tion and oppression.

anarchy or dividing up. We are not
