WHAT SOCIALISM is

(From the Encyclopedia Britannica
Socialism is that policy or theory
which aims at securing by the action
OF the central democratic authority
better distribution, and in due subor-
dination thereunto better produc-
ton of wealth than now prevails. So
cialism has been, and still is, very
frequently associated with irreligion
and atheism. The same remark ap-
plies to continental liberalism, and
partly for a like reason; the absolute
governments of the continent have
taken the existing forms of religion
into their service and have repressed
religious freedom. On religion, as
on marriage, Socialism has no special
teaching"

The unemployed of Vancouver
functions and raided several stores
and helped themselves to the good
things lying around. The police were
called to the scene and the raiders
disappeared. The government has
since stepped In and taken the re-
sponsibility of feeding these unem-
ployed. This is the kind of prosperity
Canada has received CD on account
of the removal of the single tariff.
The tariff should by all means be
put on these shingles as soon as the
Republicans suggest, and thus give
the prosperity CD to America that is
now Canada's.

WHAT is SOCIALISM g?

Socialism is the public ownership
and the popular management of the
means of production and distribution
which are now used to exploit the
masses of the people out of the bulk
of the products of their honest toll.
* y Socialism stands for the pri-
yate ownership of everything that
ought to be used in private. 1t stands
for private property in everything
except those things which can be used
to exploit others.-John NJ Work.

THE RED FLAG
(By Frank B. Norman.)

(By Frank B. Norman.)
The red flag is a sympol that red
blood is sacred. That it shall not he
shed nor exploited.
1t is a prophecy of time to come,
when all creatures with red blood in
their veins shall live in love and Sc
renity and lie down in peace together.
It's adherents proclaim the brother
hood of man. .o
While it may be foreign in origin,
coming from far off Calvary, yet it
shall in time encircle the earth.
1t shall be a canopy oyer the earth
at rest, at last, in peace, when all
other symbols shall have crumbled
INTO dust and been forgotten.

MARRIAGE FRUSTRATED
White Lake Couple Not Old Enough
for Marriage.

P~lankinton, July 24.-That the
course of true love sometimes does
not run smoothly was discovered by
Earl Meyer and Miss Leona Faber,
we'll known young people of White
Lake, when their plan to elope and
be married was frustrated by a cold
blooded clerk of courts, whose action
was backed up by the law. Eluding
their parents the young man and girl
appeared in Plankinton and the for
mer applied to Clerk of Courts Stem
Ter for a marriage license. He was
told that he would have to have a
witness. After some effort he seeur-
ed a witness. When asked as to his
e he was compelled to admit that
he was not yet 81. He was informed
that before the license could be is
sued he would have TO secure the
written consent of his parents or
guardian. AS this would have been
impossible the intended groom was
forced to give up in despair, and him
self and the girl returned TO White
Lake on the first train, and will have
to wait until they are older or their
parents give their consent to heir
marriage.

ROAD TAX RULINGS
ATTORNEY GENERAL SAYS COM.
MISSIONERS MUST MAKE
LEVY GENERAL.

Pierre, July 24.-Attorney General
Caldwell has ruled that although the
law provides for a method OF first OBJ
tanning the general sentiment of a
community about a raise in the tax
levy for road tax, county commission
ers are obliged to make the levy uni
form in the organized townships OF
the county. A great sentiment for ii
in one portion and none in another
will not bring about a raise in the
tax levy. The sentiment must be gen.
eral enough to warrant the raise
above the allowed 2 mills. A vote on
the question must decide the matter.
The attorney general also rules
that auto clubs or other similar or
CARNATIONS or individuals have no
right to incur indebtedness for the
Improvement of roadways which
county commissioners would be
bound to pay. The law of 1913 con-
corning the county motor vehicle
road fund, from which such expenses
are met, and the amendment of 1915,
leaves the county commissioners
clearly the right and power to pay
from that fund after a survey of work
done up highways has been made by
them and meets their orders and re-
quirements.
A further ruling on roads says that
IL roads are so bad that children IAN
not be transported on the regular
route, mileage can be collected for
such transportation over the shortest
and most direct road. which car be
travelled, to the schoolhouse. The
law intends and says the mileage
should be collected for the shortest
route, but Caldwell rules that IL must
mean a passable road.
