paper as much as they produced or as much as they need. When, as some times happens, the workers ask for an extra dollar in wages and it is given to them. we hear that prosperity has arrived, but when the worker gets down to the market with his extra dollar he finds that these captains of industry have put up the price so that he gets off just where he was before, which is one station this side of the poorhouse
 fixing of the price of the essentials of life, you can't beat this game.
 The average voter of the other par ties is being fed with the belief that the trust is the outcome of the cum ming or the avarice or the greed of Rockefeller or Guggenheim or Morgan, It isn't so. said the speaker; but de- velopment of modern industrial growth which he illustrated by the change from the old stage coach to the rail- road.
 You can't destroy the trust by break ing up the railroad and going back to the old stage coach, which is like the remedy proposed by some of the old parties
 Candidate BeardsIey Arrives.
 At this point the arrival of Samuel B. Beardsley, the candidate for gov ernor, brought the speakers attention to him for a moment and the new ar rival was applauded.
 The Remedy.
 In resuming, MT. Carey declared that we should not throw bricks at Gug genheim and the others. for they are only doing what the working class ano the people have voted they should do We haven't used our brains for oul own benefit. The first remedy Is tC think and then to go to the ballot boz and there get control of the machin- cry of government. We can vote our selves into possession of the govern 1 ment and use its power to transfer from MT. Rockefeller and Guggenhein and Morgan the means of production of the necessities of life. Then shal we be free from poverty and the feal of poverty. Politically we are free but industrially we are slaves; bu' with the change which the socialis party proposes we shall have nation wholly free, for the socialist party stands for the end of the economic monarchy which has it's fingers at thu | throat of the American people. 1 MT. Carey's quiet yet forceful way of putting his points made a strong l impression upon his audience and they gave him generous applause.
 Candidate Reardsley. Candidate Beardsley was the nex | speaker. He began with mention o1 | the growth of the party in this state and then charged Bryan F. MahaI with being one of those who stated if the senate that platforms for politica parties were necessary, but that h. l did not believe they should be binding upon the individual. MT Banks sub scribed to the same opinion, the speak CT said, and the only man who ha6 I the sand to take exception to 1t va! Jerry Donovan of South Norwalk. MT Beardsley charged that both the ol( l parties failed to make any honest at | tempt to pass workingmen'soe oeompen sation. act in the last legislature. Th' cards were stacked against it from thu 1 start.
 | He urged that the whole gang mus | be wiped out in order to correct con l ditions, and he asked the voters pres ent how they expected Simeon E | Baldwin to do anything for the work l ingman when he had one million in vested in the New Haven road. IT l the Bull Moosers who were hgurlng ol l beating the old machine he said For I get it!
 The one remedy urged by socialism is to get hold of the tools of produc l ton.
 He criticised the compensation ac | in Massachusetts which protects onl 1 about 50, 900 of the workingmen in tn state, and pointed to the compensation act in Germany as ideal.
 l One thing the state had done, h said. in passing the public utilities act but why haven't we got something ou of it? MT. Ford, civil engineer, bes customer Consolidated road, MT. Hale
 peach dealer, getting rebates from tn Consolidated railroad, were reaso I enough why we got nothing out of i If the socialists could put one man O that commission they would eithe
 make 1t effective or wipe 1t out. N
