Finally, am a Socialist because in these days
one has to be for or against Socialism. We

In England many people believe that the

The aigrette is a long, exceedingly slender
hlmy plume and is made up In punches rang
ing from six to six hundred These clusters
are easily taken apart and rebound To count
the individual feathers in an ordinary aigrette
bunch is delicate and tedious operation In
the Webb amendment what would there be to
prevent any plume dealer from dispatching
agents abroad with thousand punches of
aigrettes which he could state were legally
owned in this country before the third of last
October, when the tariff bill went into effect?
These agents upon returning from their buy
ing expeditions abroad could bring back
punches containing thousands of egret plumes
in addition to those taken abroad.
Even If the various sprays were counted, the
law could be beaten in this way. In the large
egret colonies in South America, where birds
are killed in the nesting season to get the
feathers, hunters continually find feathers
which the birds have shed. These are known
as dead" feathers, and the South American
hunters are paid only small fraction of the
amount they receive for live" feathers, or
feathers taken from a freshly killed bird
These dead feathers are very cheap on the
market They cannot be dyed and are very
easily broken
Under the Webb amendment to the tariff
act feather buyer might take 10000 dead
feathers to Europe and bring back. with him
10000 live feathers and clear something over
$4,000 by the transaction.
Aigrettes are worth more than twice their
weight In gold In New York to-day, and those
of us who have been In actual contest with the
feather interests in this city for many years
know that there are dealers in the feathers of
these birds who would go to any length to
beat the law and make money. The present
law was enacted only after a prolonged and
bitter fight in Congress, and 1t, of course, has
its enemies. Should this amendment be seri-
ously considered, it would mean again opening
up the whole subject for debate and possible
revision. 1t is always bad thing to consider
amendments to a good law. at least until the
measure has been in operation long enough to
thoroughly test its ACCESSIBILITY
This new Federal law against the importa-
ton Of feathers came as climax in the cam
paign waged by the Audubon Society ever
since its first formation, in 1886. At that time

national Socialism will conquer by long-drawn
patience and unwearying action It must con-
quer. England is not the country In which its
conquests can be disputed. They have been
overwhelming If We look at this great British
Empire as a whole We see Socialism firmly es-
tablished at those points where a new civiliza-
ton gives facilities for it's advent, in Australia
and New Zealand. The idea that anything and
everything may be claimed as private property
belongs to the dark ages of humanity. and Is

Of essays have been written to show that brood

his murderer.

JUDGE EWART GIVES EFFECTS
OF HENDERSON co. DOG Law.

S7O.16 for Education.

1888
The views of Judge H. G. Ewart,
author of the dog law which was en-
acted at the 1911 session of the Cen
eraI Assembly when he represented
Henderson county, will doubtless be
of interest to every citizen of the coun-
ty, regardless of politicaI views.
Judge Ewart declares that there was
no popular demand for the repeal of
the law, but that it was repealed as a
result of the clamor of politicians and
owneds of ''yallor' dogs, and that the
necessary relief will not come to Hen
derson county until the people elect
legislators who have the courage OF
their convictions.
The details of the law, the funds 1T
raised for educational purposes and
how it induced the farmers to raise
more sheep rather than worthless dogs
are set out in the following interview
given a representative of the Hustler
Democrat:
THE repeal of the Henderson coun-
ty dog tax law by the last General
Assembly was a grave blunder," said

any excuse or justification.
