Hankem and George Bertrand
took the chance and got OFF
wrong. The two Georges are
wood choppers at Boring, Ore
gon. They said that they did
not know how TO rest themsel-
yes on last Sunday afternoon so
decided TO go fishing. Neither
had a license and they met War
rem Cornelly. one Of the special
deputies appointed some weeks
ago by District Warden Erwin,
and their arrest followed. They
were brought to the town of Mil
waukee and told their story TO
Justice of the Peace Kellogg who
fined them twenty-five dollars
each. After explaining to the
court that they only earned one
dollar and sixty cents per day.
they were let off by recommended
tion of District Game Warden
Erwin. A man may go out a
number of times but generally
the time when he expects to save
one dollar he pays about thirty.

and are on the look out the same
as the regulars and are liable

A Disguised Listener

Editor Review: Hearing that
there was to be a Socialistic lee
ture given on the street corner
last Friday evening. at which
prominent speakers of the So
cialist party were expected to be
present. decided TO make il u
point To be present and hear of
what the true principles of
Socialism consisted to hear if
something better in the way of
government than the present
would be advanced. But | was
greatly disappointed. The bur-
den of the talks was raillery
against public officials and pub
lie men. We were almost led To
imagine from the talk that this
country was scarcely ft to live
in. that nearly all men of wealth
were thieves. that practically all
public officials should be behind
the bars. that patriotism was
nonsense. that all working peo-
pie were slaves. and harangues
that might be likened TO the
rawlings of diseased minds. /
had wondered why Socialist
Leach was driven from Bandon.
Oregon. and had felt some
sympathy for him before, but
after hearing him speak the
wonder was lessened. His re-
marks were unpatriotic. and
! could not help but wonder how
long the people would have stood
for il were the country in
state of war. A speaker preced-
ing him was so coarse and dis
gusting in his attacks on Gov
ernor West and other officials as
to be nauseating. He also emp
tied some of his venom on the
Oregon Journal. The harangues of
the speakers were demoraliZing
instead of eleyating and helpful.
The only definition of Socialism
gathered from the remarks of
the speakers was 10 make the
working people discontented and
dissatisfied with the country
and the officials at the head of
the government. But there was
nothing offered in its stead.
The principles of Socialism We're
not explained-only one TRADE
of abuse after another. II would
be much better if the Socialist
party would recall such speakers
if they expect TO gain in num-
bers. Disguised Listener.
