lice ambulance.
According to witnesses, Jafer com.
mitted the deed and was saved from
the clutches OF mob, only by the
timely arrival OF Officer Irving r. Pat

In Detroit Pulpits

Gods first call is look up and His
second clean up" said the Rev.
George Edgar Cullen, in the West
Grand-blvd. Methodist church, Sunday
evening. discussing Modern costumes
and morals"
Many modern habits OF dress are
decidedly immoral as is all slavish
following OF fashion," said Mr. Cullen.
THE altar of the goddess OF style
smokes with the sacrifice of the
bodies of thousands Of victims. How
frequently do we see on our streets,
warm furs fashionably unclasped TO
reveal a beautiful bare throat on
nights when the temperature Is down
to zero Then we build charitably In.
clined tubercular sanitoria. What
travesty on plain common sense.
Many OF our salarfed men are dying
OF nuns. diamonds and camel's hair
shawls. At their funerals they ex-
pect the minister TO speak of them as
though they were victims OF early
piety. I DO not wonder that Socialism

"The church is far from being ade-
uuate to meet the needs OF the pres
ent day" said the Rev. Willis A..
Moore, in the Church of Our Father,
"An adequate church must have a
definite program Of work and place
for every man, woman and child in
several distinct lines that converge
upon the kingdom OF God. IL must
also have trained workers or special
lists to assume the leadership in each
important line OF work"
Asserting that the church does not
forbid healthful pleasure or a good
time" the Rev. Frank F. Fitchett, in
he Grand Riyer-ave, Methodist
church. Sunday. said: There is
pleasure to be had in the world still.
but II Is a kind OF pleasure out OF
which benefit will be derived. Men
should plan their pleasure with the
idea of its bringing TO them as much
benefit as their work. 1t can be a
rest and relaxation from work and be
both pleasurable and beneficial"
! The tenth year of his ministry was
observed, Sunday morning, by the
Rev. J. Percival Huget, in the First
Congregational church. The pastor
reviewed a bit of his personal history
as 1t touched upon his preparation,
entrance and service, in the ministry.
Or. Huget said circumstances many
times diverted him from his studies

returned TO his work OF preparation.

 For The
 drn1cr

At Harmonic Hall on oct. 1st., Lena Morrow Lewis, who is supposed to be iii Alaska oil Ter own business and the business of some one else, gave all add ress, i'll honor of August Rebel, the gre at Marxian Socialist, who died recently iii Switzerland, which would have been good address had she not mixed ID religion with it and told of new kind of socialism socialism for the farmer.
 AS stated in the first issue of the Alas Ks Socialist, all sides Of the question of Socialism would be discussed The far mers of the middle states, who formerly belonged to the Populst party, which was gobbled up by the Democratic party are held by the throat and are at the rnercy of the railroads and can get no relief from the tvo old parties, which are owned By tile railroads, wherever they are in power Since the Popu1ist party passed away there is only one other party that looks, to the farmer, AS if they were going to get into office and that is the Socialist party. The farmer sees in Socialism The abolition cf Wage slavery which does not concern him a>he simply wants to advance his class inter ests and exploit the class beneath him.
 The Socialist politicians h that part of the country where the farmer vote is strong are very willing that the exploit ation of the farm wage slaves shall con- tiaue, 50 that they can get into office, hence, socialism for the farmer.
 Socialism for the farmer is de1l- ial Of the class struggle betrayal of tue workers, and E altogether polite ian's scheme. Here is what Marx CO., worker, Frederick i.ngels says about it:
 By urging more and more the conver- sion of the large already socialized ne ans Of production into State property, fl [capitalis.n1 points tie path for the acc omplishme,lt of this the LSocialistl re- yolution, The proletari2t seizes tlle machinery Of the State and converts the means of production first into State pro- perty. But, by 50 doing, it extinguishes ali class distinctions and classcontrasts3 and along with them, the State as such.

 The Issue

For some time there has been cousid erable comment ill the Socialist press relative to the shrinkage in the meIn-- bership of tn Socialist party. There have been various causes assigned for the loss. Of membership and some of the comments should arouse the real Soc ialists to take such action as will remove the causes that have caused thousands of men and women to cease paying dues into organization, some of whose prominent members have lost the con- fidence of that element wIo believe in keeping the party clean and who believe ill the solidarity of the workers econom- ically and politically
 The Socialist party has permitted it. self to became pasture upon which the Industrial Workers of the World have fed for the past several years. Men who were members of the Industrial Workers of the World were likewise members Of the Socialist party, and these members used all their efforts to make the Social ist party the tail Of the I. ". w, kite
 The members of the Socialist party who ceased to pay dues to the organiz- ation did not withdraw because the Soc ialist party was raising funds to fight the battles Of labor, but because some of those funds were utilized for other pur- poses than to feed starving men, wom- en and children who were involved i'll a battle against heartless greed. The funds that were raised for the free-spee- cb fascos at Spokane and San Diego and the revelations that were made con- corning the manner T which those funds were misappropriated by the fin ancial jugglers of the I.

COMMUNICATION
TO ALASKA SOCIALIST:

h the first issue of The Alaska Socialist, under the heading There's q reason for the Alaska Socialist, I notice some comm unications, sent by people living i'll the outlying precincts Of the Fourth Div ision, urging the publication of SOC lalist paper in Fairbanks. It appears strange that they are tue first to real ize the necessity of having q Socialist class-conscious paper published ill Fair banks. But suppose in order to see the full grandeur of . mountain or building we should stand at some dis lance away from it.
 Now I would like to ask, are there pot many reasons for The Alaska Soc ialist?
 If the voice of the workers of the rTanan2 Valley is to be heard. or their cause honestly advocated, if can be done orly through the columns of paper devoted entirely to their interests
 Now, have we at present got such journaP The thoughtful worker will readily answer, no. The politician and ti'e wirepul!er will answer, why, yes, all .,hc papers are devoted to tlie inter rst of tue workingne1, and only glad to lend them assistance at any time. But they are always very carefull to conceal just what kind of workingreu ehey have reference to. The liorsethief y the burglar might claim to be wo- rjingnlan They work tIaeir victims, i'll lbout the same nauncr that the gang il and around Fairbanks have worked .ile toiling 1naSses of TaraJa Valley, Work the workers has always been tic game of the gang, and they have been ably assisted! by the kept press Of Fair tanks whose motto has always been, if yo1 can't boost, don't knock. The "a rbanks newspapers have done their share of the boos ting ard the result is .llat tI1e great majority of the innabit- 4nts of Tanana Valley are busted, as evidenced by t!lc number of idle mining .:ldi.l:s upon the different creeks, the number of empty business houses 1T l'airbanks and outlying places the number Of people leaving for tl.e outside hy steamboat ard overland trAil completely busted to return no more; and 2 knowledge ot the fin anc;al condition of those that reniain
 Strange :tlat the newspapers of Fair hanks fail to notice or mention what is go:t;!, ou under their own eyes. And comment upon the effect of it, They still continue to boost, but according to biblical lore: 'The ass was the first to sec the angel p. Il is high time to dis continue the boosting and deal more with actual facts. Facts will be more instructive to our people We have had entirely too much of the booster, sone- thing akin to too much Johnson. "
 l. may be I good christian idea to sing Glory, EIalleIujah when tie ship IS sinking. But 1t is much more sen siblc to scramble for the Iifeboats
 When the workers Of Panama aredri- vetl ont, or starved out the booster will soon follow. The newspapers of Fair hanks have decoyed many people into tiiis country from the outside by nlis- leading reports, but they are powerless to do it any longer. The people on the ogtsidc are onto their game How long before the people al hcr1e catch on?
 II Is always we'll to advertise the re- sources of Alaska, but 1t should be ad- xertised as t is, and tlen it will sand investigation.
