WAR TEACHING SOCIALISM

The Italian government gives boost to socialism by
the seizure of ten million eggs that held in cold
storage, and is selling them at half the market price in
order to reduce the hgh cost of living that has struck
that country as well others. This is following
the example set by Germany, and is simply socalistic
that the necessities of war conditions have
forced the warning nations After the war the ques
ton will rise up to why conditions be regulated
in time of peace well during war; and it will be hard
to find any but affirmative answer 1t might be added
that business conditions in this country tending
force public thought along the same lines. The great
corporations have stated and say they have proved that
no matter how large they they can be run more
cheapy by becoming still larger and hence insists that
mergers and other of growth are in the interest
of economical production and the making Of products
cheaper
This theory followed to its ultimate conclusion means
government ownership and socialism. To go back: if
government seize eggs it of can seize any
other article and fix its price just the Italian govern
men fixed the price of eggs at half what they sell
ing for in the open market 1t will be admitted without
dispute that if food products the farmers stock in trade
be seized and the prices of the different products
fixed by law, it would be unjust to the farmer unless
everything else placed under the law and made
subject to seizure and price regulation 1t would be
just to fix the price Of his products and also fix the
price of the things he is compelled to buy When this
condition arises is but step to the governments taking
charge of everything.

Herman ROsenthal, advertising man
ager for Sears, Roebuck & Co.. of Chi
cago, recently told the members of the
American Ad club one of the methods
by which that company extended its
trade. He said: 'We have a bureau
whose duty it is to read each week the
country newspapers from all over the
country. There is not paper of any
consequence in our territory that our
bureau does not get. This bureau looks
over these papers and waen we find

1912 MAJORITY FOR
WILSON AT SPOKANE

Spokane, Wash, Sept. lS.-Thc In
terstate fair furnished an unexpected
jolt to the Hughes leaders of this part
of the state when the totals of the
straw ballot taken at the turnstiles
were computed, showing that out of
A, SOS votes cast, Woodrow Wilson had
received a majority of 5372
The arrangements for the straw bal
lot were made with elaborate care. At
the entrance gate were four turnstiles
through which the general admission
passed Big banners were put over each
turnstile, two bearing the name of
Wilson and two tnat of Hughes.
The people, as they came to enter
the gates, had their attention called to
the fact that straw vote was being
taken, and each person of mature years
passing through the turnstiles was
asked to pass under the Hughes ban
ner if he was supporter of Hughes,
or under the Wilson banner if he was
supporter of Wilson.
Much prominence was given to the
balloting in the Spokane press and
much interest was aroused over the
outcome In view of the fact that the
registration OIL DdllOt was dulolhdllc,
and that it cost the price of an admis-
sion to east one, it was generally con
ceded that the totals would he fair
index of the sentiment of the masses
of people who passed through the
gates.
At the close of tae first day Mr..
Hughes had a majority of six votes
over Mr.. Wilson, but after that for the
rest of the fair Wilson took the lead
with steady climbing majority.
The last days balloting gave Wilson
1888 and Hughes 1916, while the totals
for the entire week of the fair gave
Wilson 25,l26 and Hughes l9,74S votes,
a majority of 1912.
