LUKE LEA TALKS
o. SOCIALISM
SAYS SAFETY FOR TOMORROW
LIES IN TODAYs RADICAL.
ISM,

ST. LOUIS, Jan. lot is the du-
ty of everyone who references the
traditions of the past to do his part
in making the redoubts against So
cialism secure" said Senator Luke
Lea, of Tennessee, addressing the city
club here. This can be DONE" he
continued, "only by each contributing
his part toward the success of the
radicalism of today in which lies our
safety for tomorrow
Discomfort and unrest have walk
ed abroad. For the last ten years
signs have been evident that foretold
of period of conflict. Such period
can be postponed only by some leader
coming into power with a knowledge
of the investments of capital; with
sympathy with the requirements Of
labor; with courage to deal frankly
and even harshly with the people of
his environment and with the conf
dence of those who are seeking a cor
rection of the evils that made them
restless and disconnected.
Viewed from a nonpartisan point
and measured by the patriotic needs
of the hour, our present president is
such man.
There can be no real prosperity
when a nation is divided by law into
two calsses, those who spend their
time in planning how to spend their
swollen fortunes in enjoying tomor-
row, and those who plan how to earn
sufficient to live tomorrow"
Senator Lea, in an address at the
Jackson day dinner of the Tennessee
society, predicted that this or the
next generation will see international
disputes settled by an International
court of arbitration, with power to
enforce it's DEGREES.
"Battleships will be built" he said, |
"and navies maintained, but they will !
be the police to keep peace between |
the nations Soldiers will be enlisted !
and armies modified, but they will be
the marshals or the international !
court to enforce it's orders"

runs. "the proposition to secure a law
which, according to the explicit state
ment of Mr.. Gompers, is to prevent the

destroy a business, and which will
legalize a blacklist and the secondary
boycott, both of them the apt instru-

WEDDING SECRET LEAKS
Policeman's Daughter a Wife
Is Months Despite Objections.

John F. Dougherty, clerk in an in
surance Office in Newark, went to Traf
fc Policeman Cornelius c. Bonfer, of
that city, twenty long months ago and
asked for the hand of his pretty daugh
ter. Bonfer gave him the sign to
move on.
He moved-to the marriage license
office, and on Christmas Day, 1912,
while Bonfer was eating his roast tur-
key and cranberry sauce in blissful
ignorance, Dougherty and the police
mans daughter were married in the
Holy Cross Church, in Harrison, N. j.,
by the Rev, Thomas J. Gallery.
Eighteen months and until yester-
day did they keep their secret. Dough-
erty is still an undesirable citizen in
the estimation of Bonfer, but Mrs.
Dougherty says that just as soon as
her husbands mother, with whom he
lives, gets well she will go there, too.
