SOCIALIST CANDIDATE
.coRREcIS AN ERROR

Dickinson. N. D.. Oct. s, 1912.
To Editor Dickinson PRESS.
Dear Editor =
In your issue If October 5th, I see you
have an account of my meeting in
Dickinson on October list. There are
a few errors in that that I desire to
correct. For instance, you state: HE
(Mr. Bowen) has radical socialistic
ideas, and stated that he believed the
government should stamp money and
buy up the Standard Oil Company and
like millionaire corporations. lands,
etc.
The statement that l have radical So
cialistic ideas is likely true from the
standpoint of a conservative. I believe
that the people in their collective ca
pacity as government should socially
" and operate in a democratic man.
ner those socially used tools known as
trusts or monopolies. l plead guilty to
''radicalism'' if this be the definition
of the term.
l did not favor the government print
ing money or anything else to purchase
land that Is used by the What
l did say was simply this. THE gov
eminent which is the people, could &C.
quire the trusts, %monopolies and lands
held for speculation by issuing bonds
in a similar manner to the bond issue
during Roosevelt's administration when
the Panama canal property was ac-
quired that those bonds could be used
in payment for debts or to purchase
goods by simply printing on each bond
the statement which at present appears
upon or paper money. This shall be
receivable at its face value in payment
for all debts due in the U. ST." etc.
This would make the bonds legal ten
der and would be in strict accord with
the constitution of the U. S. which
guarantees to congress the power to
Coin money and fix the valuation there
off,"
Il furthermore said that back of those
bonds would stand all the gold and sill
yer in the country and also every dol
lars worth of taxable property in the
country, the very credit of the American
government.
Il did not favor stamping a few
carloads of paper into legal tender bills
Immediately making sufficient for every
body, for as a matter of fact if every
trust and monopoly in the land should
be purchased by the government. the
bonds given in payment would be given
to the owners and would not find their
way into the hands of that 80 per cent
of the American people. who, according
to the last federal census, do not own
ny interest in any of those things.
What l did declare to be the duty OF
the people as government was to find
employment for themselves. work for
the unemployed. because the saddest
spectacle immaginable as an able bod
led mar able and willing to work and
denied the right to apply his labor
through the machinery of production to
the God given resources of the country.
II want every man to have the right
to work, and to secure the equivalent
Of what his labor produces.
my entire talk that night could be
summoned up in these words:
Give us political Democracy
Give us industrial Democracy
Let the people rule"
Thanking you for this space in your
paper. ! am,
Very truly yours,
Albert E. Bowen. Jr.,

WILL APPEAL TO MORGAN.
Withdraw Of His Loan 10 Wu-

LONDON. Jan. aG,-Thc authorities OF

greatly disturbed about the Withdrawal
Of the magnificent collection OF ar, OBJ
iects loaned for many years 10y J. Pier
pont Morgan. The director OF the mu-
scum Sir Cecil II. Smith, Is now absent
ami It is reported that he has gone to
Egypt to attempt to persuade Mr.. Nor
gan to reconsider his decision. In the
meanwhile the curators of the museum
are packing up the collection.
The newspapers to-day comment on
the British red tape and official short
s'ghtedness" which they hold respon-
sihlc for what they describe as a ma
uonal loss"
A story that j. Pierpont Morgan
was about to bring his art collection
from London to New York because hs
resented the way in which the collec.
ton had been treated by the British
authorities was denied to-day by j
pierpont Morgan ir.
1T Is annoying" said Mr.. Morgan
"to have stories circulated that my
father has had trouble with the All.
thoritles In England. As a matter oi
fact, every ono who has had anything
to do with the collection has been fair
and nry fathers feelings toward them
is the best.
"A statement In the London Times
that the collection IL being brough,
here because OF dissatisfaction OF tn,
manner In which II has been treated Is
incorrect. MIR. Morgan was satisfied
with the care and attention. but nat.
urally has for a long time desired tc
have his collections In America"
