AS ONE SOCIALIST FOUND Il

In an address delivered during
the campaign. David Goldstein
once capliiate for mayor OF
Boston. told the people more truths
about Socialism than most Of them
had ever dreamed. says the
Tonopah Nevadan. Mr.. Goldstein,
a cigar-maker by trade, said he
Joined the Socialist party because
he, like many others was discon.
tented with existing conditions.
He won leadership in his own city
and became his party's candidate
for the highest local office He re-
jected Socialism when he found out
what lay behind the smooth talk OF
Socialist orators and what Social
ism really is, as defined in the
words of Marx and Engles and its
other founders and creative
thinkers For he found that
Socialism denies the existence of
God, regards a future life beyond
the grave as childish myth,
looks with complacence on promis.
Guilty in the relations of the sexes,
and contends that physical comfort
is the only source of happiness
and the only aim worth pursuing.
He proved the accuracy of this
description by copious citations
from the writings IF Socialism's
leading thinkers, the men who
gave socialism any sort of intel
ectuaI standing and make it more
than the whining of children cry.
Ing for the moon.
Such truthful expositions of
Socialism are, of course, not pleas
fng to it's advocates who seek
public Office and personal profit
by promising milleniums if we
will only vote the Socialist ticket
and give Socialists power in gov.
nment to apply its principles.
Many socialists get quickly and
ex 7trenmly angry when reminded
what are the fundamental princi
iples of their political faith. The
popular Socialist orator usually
prefers to reserve the principle
or the inner circle of comrades, -
and sssheers off from their real
discussion before mixed and
general audiences.
However, such expositions OF
Socialism as Mr.. Goldstein's
happen TO be the.truth. And it is an
ancient and wise saying that the
truth hurts only those who deserve
to be hurt.

health and happiness Of its young
men. This is practical Christian
ity. This is not the Christianity of
any Sectarianism or denominations
alism or Of creeds or tenets or of
iron-bound religions, but it is the
Christianity that is moving the
world today, and that the world is
demanding. and that is the only
Christianity which will meet the
out-stretched hands of thousands of
men and women who are seeking to
raise the corner of the veil of life,
and find the truth. And so great
credit is due men, like Mr.. Green
field, who realize these necessities,
and these aims, and who are live
enough, and wise enough and big
enough to start such movement
in this community, and by honoring
him with your assistance you honor
yourselves and deserve the name of
being the best little community in
this state. Thus do we practice
the precepts of that great Teacher,
who founded Christianity along
these lines, although that
Christianity may have become
ohscured by the mist of creeds and
technicalities which have been in
troduced into it. So say, as ]
said in the beginning, we all travel
haltingly and blindly along the
"street called Straight to the house
called Beautiful" There is an
aspiration in each one of us. We
are willing to serve our fellowmen
if someone will show US the best
way in which to do it and in serv-
ing them we add to the sum of
our happiness. This little church
and this hall shall will point that
aspiration as it raises its spires
towards the quiet stars and out
through its gates will pour flood
of light and life and hapl mess for
our children and their fair children
yet to be.
So let me place in this corner
stone all your hearts, all your
pulsating hopes and all your best
and tenderest wishes for the
success of this institution and in
the coming years, when you point
out this edifice and the monuments
of your progress to the stranger
with your gates your bosoms will
swell with proper plide, and future
generations will arise and call you
blessed and. thank you for the sub.
scription you are about to make
to the building fund?

This is all brought about by the
fact that the majority of the private
cars in the United States are now
equipped with Western Electric Tele

each stopping place to the telephone
line by means of a line pole. Over
the telephone circuit thus established,
the official transacts his routine busi-
ness as well as takes care of any
emergency which may arise. He die

In the daye before the telephone
bega to supplant the telegraph for
dispatching the message work on rail-
roads, this would not have been pos
sible, for even If a temporary teie-
graph circuit had been rugged up, it
would have been necessary to employ
experienced operators at both ends.
This would have meant that a per-
sonal message between the General
Manager and the Superintendent
would have had to pass Though two
intervening minds, which would of
course have detracted from the per-
sonal-touch element. This is one of
the many points wherein the tele-
phone is vastly superior to the tele-
graph for use on railway systems.

tied in Cherokee county last Sunday.
Cherokee was once Mr.. Gault's old
home. We attended church services
as Rehobeth. This is an old church
seat, but they have a new church
building, the old one being too small
for the congregation. The old church
building is now the school house. The
new church is large one, 40 by 60
feet, and will be nice building when
painted and finished inside. A good
sermon was preached by Rev. Mr..
Thomson, the Baptist preacher from
Gaffney.
After preaching we met a good
many of the congregation, among
them being the Robersons, Fosters,
Mabreys, Garners Jeffries, Vaughans,
Harrises, Hughes, whom we had met
before, and Mr.. Munro Kirby and
Mr.. John A. Hames. We, with Mr..
). E. Gault and Rev. Mr.. Thomson,
were invited to the hospitable home
OF Mr.. John A. Hames, where we
were served to bountiful dinner.
After enjoying several hours with
Mr.. and Mrs. Hames and others we
returned to our homes, hoping that
we might take another such trip
sometime in the future.
1t seems it is hard to settle the
election. We believe in law and Or

were for God and would work for
that end like they do for getting
their man in office, what a great rev.
olution would take place and sure
we would see some good.

After being piled with ginger ale
highballs until he was helplessly
drunk, Robert F. Dyar, a flagman of
the Southern railway, was carried, on
Saturday night, into a vacant house
back of Magnolia street and robbed
of $50 and watch and chain worth
So, according to sworn statements
made before Magistrate A. H. Kirby
yesterday morning
Herbert Bullock "a telegraph opera
tor, was accused of the crime, and
committed to Jail on a charge of lar
ceny from the person. He was later
released in 5000 bail furnished by
William Tinsley and ]. P. West.
Member of Georgia Family.
Bullock said he was member of
the well-known Georgia family of
that name and formerly lived in
Georgia, but had married in Virginia.
Bullock and Dyar both live with their
families at the home of Mr.. Rhine
heart, near the Southern depot.
According to Dyar, the two men
started out about o'clock Saturday
afternoon in search of recreation.
When they were near the Franklin
club, Bullock, he said, remarked that
he would get some whiskey. He went
up a stairway and returned with a
pint, for which he paid, according to
Dyar, 81. They took the liquor to a
restaurant and drank it with ginger
ale, the purpose of thus mixing it be-
ing to get quicker action"
Got Liquor Three Times.
When the liquor was consumed,
they obtained more, and even got a
third supply. Dyar was by this time
very unsteady on his legs, and Bull
lock, he said, carried him to a vacant
negro cabin back of Worsley's restau-
rant on Magnolia street.
Dyar said that as he was lying on
the floor Bullock turned him over and
rified his pockets, getting $50 and a
watch and chain. Dyar said he was
dimly conscious of what was going
on but could not resist.
When Dyar failed to return home
young Mr.. Rhinehart started in
search of him. Several people had
seen Dyar and Bullock go to the ne
gro cabin together and Bullock re-
turn without Dyar. Rhinehart went
to the cabin and found Dyar. His
pocketbook was lying near him emp.

Auto m obiIs Regulation.

To the Editor of the Free Press:
1t is quite likely that some measures
more adequate than those now existing
for the regulation of automobiles will
have to be provided very soon or we
shall lose entirely what few street or
highway rights we have yet, by the
grace of the motorists, vouchsafed to
US. A state of terrorism exists in
many parts of our city, caused by the
reckless speeding of every conceivable
contraption, some as large as railway
switch-engines, by irresponsible cranks,
kids and "show offs" of all ages and
degrees of mental vigor. A gentleman
driving along Colchester avenue was
obliged to turn his horse quickly into
the college meadow to allow a race to
be pulled off, by couple of sports in
big machines. This avenue is a very
important and much travelled street.
Another man proceeding along on the
right side of the avenue on his bicycle
was assaulted by one of these gasolene
switch engines and lett lying on the
highway, man and machine much dam
aged. By the time the man was able
to rise the reckless driver and his in
strument of murder was doubtless a
mile or two away. Very few indeed
are the drivers who comply with the
law, twenty or thirty miles an hour is
the common speed along the lengther
streets and avenues. We who yet en-
ploy the old fashioned expedient of
walking, would certainly like little
assurance that we may after venturing
abroad, return to our domiciles with, at
least, whole bones. Then there are our
children. Shall we be obliged to employ
a guttersonian trainer to enable them to
jump, not in to danger but out of it?
What is the solution of this problem,
how may we circumvent this devouring
monster who is certainly stealing away
the common rights handed down to us
through the ages?

Auto Runs Into Wagon.

Parker Freeman, son of Benjamin
Freeman, warden of the town farm,
and Thomas Beverage were run into
Saturday evening on the Warren road
by an automobile. The young men
were driving a horse, the personal
of the warden, hitched to a
new buggy, and were on their way
home from Warren. When near the
road leading to West Brimfeld station
they heard an automobile coming from
behind and pulled over to the right side
of the road. The automobile instead of
passing to the left, kept to the right
and ran into the rear of the buggy, de-
molishing it. The boys retained con-
troll of the horse and escaped personal
injury. The autoists failed to give
their names, but the car was 1920

cupants failed to render any assistance
and might not even have halted had it
not been necessary to back out to clear
the wreck. The boys had light on
their buggy and are sure they were
fully out on the right side of the road.
There seems to be no valid excuse for
the accident or failure to assist the
boys after the accident. Springfield

long been recognized as one of the
most progressive men in the state, and
one of the leading dairymen and
breeders in Jersey stock. He built up
Laporte Dairy Farm, which has the
reputation of being one of the most
productive in the state. Mr.. Smith has
always been the first one in the COM
munity to adopt all up to date methods
and machinery. He is the oldest living
silo man in the State, and he it was
who bought the first horse corn planter
and cream separator in the county. He
has also been quite an extensive dealer

first bill that was passed regarding it.
In 1895 he was elected president of the
State Dairymen's Association and was
reelected in 1896. He was the first
master of the Lamoille Grange, for
eight years was overseer of the State
Grange and at the present time is
serving his fourth year as master of
the State Grange. He has held various
town Offices and is much interested in
educational matters having had seven
children to educate. He is now a men,
Der of the Board of Agriculture and
Forestry. AS may not be generally
known Mr.. Smith was the first one to
set the ball rolling in the state press
which resulted in our "Morrill Hall'' at
the State University. He is a Metho-
dist in religion and has been a steward
in his church from his twentieth year
and for many years superintendent OF
its Sunday school. He has always been
recognized as one of the strongest tenn
perance men in town.
