SOCIALISM BORN
OF SOCIETY'S NEED,
SAYS DR.. WATSON
Rector of ST. Stephens Church
Addresses Members. of
Mems Club.

Socialism as a social philosophy
rather than a political program was
the subject of an address by Rev. Dr.
Edmund A. WATSON, rector of ST.
Stephens Episcopal Church, at the
first meeting Of the season of the
Mems Club last night. 1t provides for
the characterization of government
and industry, DR.. WATSON declared.
Our government makes a perfect
shoe for the army at cost" said Dr.
WATSON. why not give us all a
chance to buy it? The Star wishes
New Jersey to catch and sell the fish
on its coast to the people. Good
Carry that same principle and prac-
tise through and you have the people
producing, distributing and selling to
themselves the necessary staples of
life. Let who will produce the luxu-
ries, the vanity bags the patent leath-
er shoes and the sunbursts.''
DR. WATSON spoke in part as fol-
lows:
while Darwin and Wallace were
studying living forms to find the prin-
ciple of their growth and changes.
Karl Marx and other thinkers were
studying social forms to discover the
principle of their growth and changes.
The principal of evolution. working
through the struggle for existence,
was discovered to account for this
history of living things, and the prin-
cipal of specialization through an
analogous struggle for existence. was
discovered to account for social move
ments.
Socialism is, therefore, more a
philosophy of society than a political
M ic M a n For
ture worked out according to the spec
ulations of it's authors. 1t is discov-
cry, not an invention. The law of the
past is projected into the future, and
this law it is that gives us a program.
1.-THE law revealed by the past is,

Free governments have 'unloaded the

Governments must be further

Every argument against
democracy in business holds just as

Granted that the most efficient bust

the most efficient government of this

have a society in part bossed and in
part free. 1t will become all one thing

has been at 1t for ages Give us time
to learn by our bunders.

raey. The owner of land sites is not
a producer, yet he receives. He must,
therefore. receive what others pro-
duce. This, through some fair ar
rangement, will be stopped and then
the producer will not be subject to

get everything; otherwise they will be
getting less than they produce and
somebody will be getting more than
he produces. Let him who makes

MAN DROWNED Body Found Lodged Against Canal
 Gate.
  u-ak.kY. D.. :u uf,.a~ 4 a- na.4-
Probably Been in Water or Days.
 No Marks of Violence.


 The body of an unknown man was found lodged against the gate in the tail race al the mill of the Manhassett Manufacturing company early We'd nesday. Medical examiner J. B, Kent estimated .that the body had been in the water at least four or five days and decomposition had just set in. The body was discovered by Ar sene Benoit, employed in the mill Of Hammond knowlton & Company which also shares the power from the tail race, when he went 10 clean out the rack in front of the gate.
 There were no marks of violence upon the body and as no one has been reported missing itis probable that the man is one of the army of wandering workmen that pass through the mill towns. It was evident that the man was laborer. He wore cheap but good clothing. He had on a dark brown striped suit, an outing shirt NhtA n haS RaNN etA'tNt ' R'PNN st' necktie and new shoes. He was ap- parently forty to forty-tive years old, light brown hair, bald on the front of the head, clean shaven and would weigh about l60 pounds. In his pock- cts were found three pipes, two cigars, package of tobacco and fifteen cents. Nothing in the pockets gave any clue as to his identity and there were no marks on his clothing. The skin was beginning to peel from the top of the head, one hand ard the face and 1t ap- peared that the body might have fioated for some distance and had just come to the top. The medical ex- aminer gave permission for the re- moval of the body to smiths under taking rooms and if relatives cannot be located it will be buried by the town

COMMON COUNCIL
Votes to Lay Out FarrOwS Street and
 to Enforce Ordinances
Mayors Recommendation for Inspection
 of Fire Department Adopted

The regular monthly meeting of the common council was held Tuesday evening with Mayor Macdonald pre- siding. Aldermen present were Dady, Johnson, Marcy, Byrne, Davert and Bouthillette. The police report show ed eleven arrests during August of which four were sent to jail. X per init was granted J, Herbert Marsh to erect a garage on Grove street.
 Mayor Macdonald stated to the council that in years past it had been customary to hold an inspection of the fire department but none had been held for n number of years. He said Chief Maynard was trying to keep the efficiency of the department at high stan dard and thought il would create beneficial interest if a public inspec- tion was held the only expense to the city being the furnishing of horses to draw the apparatus. The mayor rec commended that the inspection be held and it was voted to authorize the chief to call an inspection at such date as he sees fit.
 It was voted to lay iout Farrows street in accordance with survey sub- mitted by the city engineer and the abutters will be given a hearing at the council chamber Oct. 9th at 7.3U AL derman Duvert reported that the fire engine house on Smith street was in need of various repairs and the com mittee were instructed to get an esti- mate of the cost and report at the next meeting.
 It was voted that the chief of the fire department be instructed and di- rected to see that all cellars are clean ed of rubbish and infammable mate- rial and that all fire hazards are abated.
 It was voted that the ordinance which requires that all awnings over sidewalks be seven feet from the walk be strictly enforced.
 The following were among the larg- sr h la d.
