VINCENT ON SOCIALISM. -
Whatever D. F. Sweetland writes i
read with qualification, although l
may not agree much. with him. He
explains that socialism does not kill
incentive This is true. But does
socialism afford the largest opportu-
nifty possible for the development of
individual incentive? That is the
real question.
Socialism proposes to make us all
partners in these tools of production
and distribution which must be So
ciaIy used or operated. Partnership
does not destroy incentive if it is vol
untary. But is socialism a voluntary
partnership, Mr.. Sweetland?
1 am supposed to be governed by
my consent in this country But in
reality l am governed in spite Of my
lack Of consent. Now under social
ism the majority rules the minority.
l am in the minority now and have
not consented to the present form
of rule. 1 will, as a member of the
minority, be compelled to accept the
rule of the majority under political
socialism. In other words l will be
a partner against my, will. Disprove
it, Mr.. Sweetland and company, if
you can?
Voluntary partnership affords I'M
limited opportunity for incentive, but
compulsory partnership is a sitting

From Zurich.

Rome, Nov. 81. - Dispatches from
Zurich assert that the Austrian en-
peror's condition is worse and that
he has asked for the papal benedic-

eagerly awaited.
An official report just received here
says the Emperor's condition, although
somewhat more serious, is not alarm
ing. The Emperor suffers from bron-
chial irritation, slight temperature,
and frequent and irregular pulse,
which has caused his medical attend
ants some uneasiness.

WITHDRAWAL NOT ISSUE;

ty of Frontier Towns.

Atlantic City, Nov. 21.-Luis Cab
rera and his colleagues on the Next
can-America1 joint commission will be
formally told today by Secretary of the
Interior Lane, chairman of the Ameri-
can commission, on just what terms an
agreement providing for the withdraw
al Of the American punitive expedition
and the protection of life and prop
erty along the International border
may be reached.
Fortified by President Wilson's ap-
prevail back of efforts to reach an
agreement, Secretary Lane returned
here. He Immediately went into con-
ference with DR.. Mott and George
Gray, the other American commission
ers. The formal meeting with the
Mexicans will take place today
Air of Uncertainty Is Lacking.
The atmosphere of uncertainty and
even hopelessness which has been ap-
parent for many weeks is entirely
lacking. The Americans propositions
have been reduced to writing and it is
understood will admit of little debate
The Mexicans appeared not to take
a pessimistic view Of the situation, Mr..
Cabrera assuring neWspapermen that
he was very hopeful of an amicable
adjustment.
Withdrawal Is Not An Issue.
The question at issue is not the
withdrawal of General Pershing's
troops. They will be called back when
the American government is convinced
that it can be done without jeOpardiZ-
ing the safety of the border.
The Mexicans will not be permitted
to place restrictions on the manner in
which the American government may
protect it's border nor on the manner
in which it may punish marauding ban
dts.
Troops to Be Unrestricted.
The Mexicans have objected to Unit
ed States troops i'm Mexico, but have
been more insistent that in case troops
are sent they be moved subject to GER
tain restrictions.
The Mexican commissioners will be
told that American forces will be used
to run down any raiding band, regard
less of where they may have to go or
of how long they may have to stay in
Mexico.

is possible that nothing may be done
