They regret that they are Socialists,
Is the way that David Goldstein left
the members Of that party last even
ing after an able discourse on the rela-

was anticipated in advance, that in
stead of arguing the term cellar"
would be used with reference to what
he said, and the calling Of everything
he said an untruth, such as Editor

pected, showing how conclusive were
the arguments OIL Mr.. Goldstein and
how they went home beyond con|tradic-
tion, save for the only argument, un-
truth, which was all that could be said
against him after he read from their
own literature, part of which Devils
Lakers paid to circulate according to
the points brought out in Mr.. Gold

That the destruction Of the home as
wrought by the party was hard for the
Socialists present. to relish but was
proven very true, pictures Of immoral
ity encouraged by socialistic literature
being pointed out in rapid succession
There was no stopping Mr.. Goldstein-
he had the facts in black and white
although the facts are not generally
known by the majority Of the Social

Even the candidate for Governor OF

to Mr.. Goldstein that he never read the
foremost book on Socialism, his concep

as it benefits labor. Mr.. Bowen has 9

hardly probable that he will be anxiou:
