SEIDEL BREACHES SOCIALISM
Former Mayor of Milwaukee Ex-
pounds His Party's Doctrine.
LAMBAsTs THE BULL MOOSE
Accuses Roosevelt of Stealing the
Socialist Platform and Trying to
steal His Way Into Third
Term.


EMIL Seidel, former mayor of milwaukee,
and candidate for vice president on the
socialist ticket, damned the everlastln'
tar out Of the bull moose movement and
the progressive Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt at an enthusiastic meeting al
Washington hall Saturday night.
HE pleads for honesty" said Mr..
Seidel, addressing nearly 400 comrades,
this man who was in the president {
office for seven and a half years and
discovered that he had to form an
honest party oniy when he couldn't get
back In.
And is 1t an honest party? Mr.. Roose-
velt has pilfered twenty-one planks OF
his platform from the socialist party
He had to call In socialist to help him
write planks that would appeal to the
workingmen.
"A few years ago Theodore Roosevelt
.raked together all the sins Of modern
society, all the greed, the lewdhess and
prejudice. and put 1t into an article and
published 1t in the outlook and said. See.
TINS Is socialism.
And today Colonel Roosevelt, who
charged Eugene V. Debs with supporting
a policy that embraced all the conceiv-
able Vices and was too good to be his
friend, walks up to this same Eugene ".
Debs and says My brother!, He has
stolen our platform and our principles,
but there Is, we must admit, something
Of virtue in such theft, But he has not
only stolen our thunder ffe has gone
to every party and taken something
from II.
There is story told to the effect
that young relatives Of the scientist,
Charles Darwin, went into the fields and
found many bugs and they took all the
insects they gathered and using part
of each made them into composite bug.
Then they went to Darwin.
See what bug we have found Tell
us what 1t is,' they said.
Darwin examined 1t carefully and
asked the boys II 1t hummed when they
caught 1t, and he was assured that the
way II hummed was marvellous
g Then 1t is humbug.' said Darwin. \
And so has Roosevelt done and the
humbuggery Of that platform he framed
in Chicago Is still humming and will
keep on humming."
Seidel raked the other two parties Inn

Canadian Serves
Term as Judge in
South Dakota

PIERRE, s. D., Oct. 6-(Special )-It
Is reported from up in Harding county
that lot of homesteaders in that section
are wondering just where they are at, all
because of the actions Of County Judge
George H. Jackson of that county, who
has held that office for the last four
years and Is now candidate for state
attorney 1t appears that while Jackson
has held the position. that he has for
all that time been citizen of Canada,
and this has just been brought out by
his application for citizenship papers at
this time. In the four years that Jack
son has been county judge he has taken
hundreds of final proofs, as Judge of a
court of record, and those who have made
such proofs are fearful that they may
be voided. Jackson up to the time he
applied for citizenship papers had no
opposition for state attorney, but it is re-
ported that an Independent candidate will
be put in the field by petition.
