Gau!sStad 5 and
 His Ma tes

MT. o. P, Gaustad. who is run hing for senator on the nondes- cript ticket called non-partisan acknowledges that he was in q movement last fall to cut wages, for the reason, he says that liv- ing had become cheaper, but the excuse he gives for abandoning ,he idea IS rather fame. Because of the advance in prices last spring the crcrctors, he, says, came to the conclusion that it would not be right to cut wages; out he did not explain why if the operators could pay $5.OO day with high prices fer supplies, they coald not do it with low prices.
 Mir. Gaustad claims much cre- lit for always employing white" lien not because he likes them better but for the reason that they are better workers,
 He also claims credit fer pay ing S7. day during the strike a few years a2C--not however from altruistic motives, but as he says, in order to get the 'best men. /" And he always worked 10 hours. 1 Altogether Mr. Gaustad is 8 typical operators association man with the requisite ideas, and full purpose to get as much as he can for as little as he can. He is fit running mate for Driscol! and Collins, whom we already know too well and for Maltby, the al legged lawyer and Snow, the req 4x-deputy marshal.
 Gaustad, Collins, Driscoll, Aaltby, Snow, Ye Gods! what z joke somebody has attempted te } perpetrate upon the workingclass : voter (and all others for that mat ) .er.D Labor legislation wo Id re. ceiVe short shrift if that bunct of unbranded political mavericks 7 get "a whack at it. If Wickershan has millstone of like dimen 5ions and density about his neck in other Divisions he is a gonel sure. Saltpetre couldn't save him
 We would like to call attention to the warning to Socialist voters against political tricks, issued by the Socialist Campaign Commit. tee printed on the first page. Ro1 ways that are dark and tricks that are vain, the old party poli- tician like the haat!len Chinee, is peculiar, 50 it behooves everyone who would vote the Socialist tic ket to be on the lookout, If enough Socialists are elected tc the legislature this fall, at next election we will have a ballot that can't be monkeyed with.

IHGIe iS prlnCeQ on the tlrSt page of this issue . letter addr S. sed to the workers of A. aska which we would urge every work ing man and woman to read. and having read it give it sob,r an6 earnest thought:
 As the letter states u,e are a. gain about to be calIe>l upon to (: ercise the right of franchise (. right that las been torn from ru- ling classes through centuries of turmoil and struggle, and having been won at great cost, should be appreciated and saerediy used. The voice of the political charl;. tan Is heard again in the lano sounding in our ears the same old song, with little variation from those we have heard since the time when the memorg of man runneth rot to the contrary. We are given the usual bombas- tic, soreadeagle slush, we hear parties and men glorified, we are told of great achievement, of great resources of great wealth, and if we are listening to those in power, of great prosperity. We can acknowledge there has been great achievement: and that there are great resources and great wealth; but must deny that there is great prosperity.
 The working class which con- stitutes the vast majority of the people, never did enjoy prosperi- ty. and under the present econo- mic system of society, never will, and while this condition lasts there can be no real prosperity. The great wealth we hear SC much about is in the hands of g few and will remain there. A working man here and there may get up in the world in a material way, but there is no doubt but the working class as a whole is steadily losing ground and prac- tlcally face to face with starva- ton. This is absolutely true and all the politicians under the sun cannot alter the ugly fact. The Socialists while in minority can not alter it, nor do they pre- tend that they can. They can and do however, stand for principle, the principle of the co-operative commonwealth, the workers ow- nership of the earth and one. they are in power we will see the fruition of that principle. We will see the end of poverty, of war, of crime and despair, and not till then. We will see the earth an Eden as it ought .c be; and in the meantime the Social ists will do all they can. and more than capitalist politicians will do, fo liphten the biriirdin bear;no sc

proved by the taxpayers as well as
automobile owners. It is reported
that the plan of the court Is to ex-
pend the fund for permanent roads

There was something sinister in the
