found that the heavy curtains and

he burned up a new pair of gloves

Senator Pacon' S statement came as
tLr concunicn of an appeal that the
rresidcL; he allowed opportunity to
peacefully settle the existing crisis. 1t
was called forth as the result of a re-
fusal by Senator Clark that his demand
that the senate inquire into Mexican
affairs be referred to the foreign com

with having no definite policy toward
Mexico, saying;

Socialism Not Cure-All.
Having enumerated the symptoms and
diagnosed the disease, Berger prescribed
Socialism as the remedy, though he does
not regard it as cure.all. He believes
that 1t is the next forward step Of the
race and in time shall be superseded by
something better.
Berger does not believe II will be dif.

ership. He declared that throughout
history IL would have been cheaper to
have paid double the intrinsic value Of
an institution in order to take IL over
for the people, than pay the price Of
blood plus the staggering cost Of war.
Cheaper TO Give in Peacefully.
BY way Of illustration he said that
in France in l775 it was proposed to
purchase the lands Of the church and
the nobility for their valuation Of 500.
100000 francs, or even pay double If
necessary The proposal was rejected
aud the reign Of terror came in 1893,
followed by the Napoleonic wars, which
cost $lO,OOO,OOO,OOO and $5,OOJ,OOO
In lsl2, he said, Henry Clay propos.
ed that the government free the slaves
by paying $sOOOOO,OOO for them, or
double their value. Instead, the civil
war was fought at a cost of sl2,OOO,.
100000 and the lives Of 100000 men.
Berger contended that the way is
clear toward the purchase of public
utilities. And he believed that the ac.
tual consummation will not be difficult.
He said that II could be done issuing
bonds, as was done when the railroads
and other utilities were originally built.
