 Quite clearly those ideals would be ideals of development along the line of personal enrichment, pro fits, exploitation of raw material labor, natural resources for the per sonal benefit of property owners as distinct from the indirect general benefit might accrue even therein to the collective well being.
 The interests of such society are identical in all respects with the interests of property and au- thority in the main is devoted to the upholding of those property rights.
 Now that sort of a society is tonishingly general throughout the world. It is the only one hu- man society has up to this known.

FOUND YET LOST"
IS BRAKES LAMENT
New Suit Stolen at Benson;
Found on Man Here Who
Escapes

Chief of Police Stanley Ryan and
Deputy Roger Casey are looking for
William Fiser, of Willmar, alias
"Bil" Murphy, as an undesirable
character and one of Conductor Nc
Cleary's freight crew is looking for
Murphy, to recover $50 suit of
clothes, shoes and hat that were stolen
from the caboose of McCleary's freight
train at Benson, last week. The
brakeman's chances of regaining his
best suit are almost nil. for Murphy
has not been seen since Tuesday night.
The brakeman, who is one of the
crew of the Great Northern local
freight that runs between Morris and
Willmar, was at the Homewood bow
ling alley Tuesday evening in company
with Conductor McCleary, and noticed
| Murphy, with whom he had a slight
acquaintance, CARRIED in blue serge
suit, hat and shoes that looked identi-
cally like the missing wearing apparel.
To the brakeman's query of where he
got the clothes, Murphy replied from
clothier in Benson for SIS. This
sounded bit breezy to the brake
who started to call an officer but re-
Trained from doing so when Murphy
said he would explain things salts
factorily after he made off an appoint
ment for the evening. The brakeman
and Conductor McCleary accompanied
Murphy to John Days residence, two
blocks south of the Merchants hotel.
Murphy told then: to "wait minute,
until he fixed things up when the
minute heightened into a half hour,
the brakeman raped on the front door
and learned from Mrs. DAILY that Muir
ply was not known to them. Murphy
had gone around the house and had
made his getaway"
Chief of Police Ryan and deputy
Casey were unable to find any traces
of the missing Murphy other than he
had registered at the Exchange hotel
as William Fiser and that he was al
one time driven out of Benson for
Bookkeeping. He has been in Morris
on several occasions during the winter
and has given his name as Murphy
He is young, of smooth and suave
appearance and is dark complexioned
And as for the brakeman. "The next
time l have the bird in hand, watch
me, " he said Tuesday night.

Baby Mary Osborne Comes Back

Baby Marie Osborne lost her anna
teur standing as a guileless child and
assumed the professional dignity of
an honest to goodness leading lady
in "Little Mary Sunshine, Pathe
Gold Rooster Play that propelled US
with an urgent, though delicate touch
back to the free spaces of the "never
never-land.
Now she is to be seen at the Strand
Theatre on Monday in "Shadows and
Sunshine" one of those "once upon a
time" butterflies through the gauzy
wing we see life in rare and delight
full tints. Five reels isn't a scene
too long for Baby Marie who, thank
Heaven, doesn't realize the charm
of her chubby little self and never
overdoes the "saccharine stuff. :"
Her utter inconsistencies of herself
is revelation in art, particularly in
one so young, and points encouragingly
to brilliant stage career. Director
Henry King deserves more than pass
ing notice for his mastery handling of
the child, and his delicate, knowing
touch on play that was woven of
Fancy's wool. King will be remem-
bered as the male lead in the famous
"Who pays?" series and former
Pathe features releases. His hand
ling of the "Little things" the
tremendous trifes' in the direction
of this feature, shows him an artist
of depth and certainty. adv.

and If there was anything unlawful
in the wording on their banners, that
the machinery of the law should
have been set in motion, I emphati-
cally disapprove of their being sub
jected to violence and mob-law. I
see nothing "brave-hearted" about
the men who insulted them and mis-
handled them, whether soldiers, sail
ors or civilians.
AS for the report that one of them
made a threat that they would use
"something more forceful than yell
low banners" it is possible that in a
moment of great excitement and In
dienation, she made that hasty re-
mark; but I absolutely refuse to be-
lieve that she meant threat against
the life of anyone, or that any OF the
nailitants consider such action. 1t Is
unbelievable and unthinkable.
. l depreciate violent methods of any
kind. It makes me seem sad when
think Of the naughty men who once
New Britain herald., 1917-08-30

turned the pure waters of Boston
harbor into good strong tea.
l do not constitute myself the
prophet, apostle or Judge of the
"militants"-it is within the bounds
of possibility that they may do
something meriting condemnation,
but they should have fair treatment
in any event. 1t is sheer nonsense.
moreover, to say that they have done
anything, which, in the widest flight
OF Imagination could be called Urea
sonable."
AS for the cause of Woman Suf-
frage, it is just. I have believed In
it, hoped for 1t, and occasionally
struck a blow for. it, for twenty-fiv
years. Ridicule and disparagement'
of it go over my head, for there is not
a sound argument against it. It is
coming all over the world, and the
words of Americas great women are
at last about to be fulfilled.

WHERE. THEY'RE GOING.

AS the crow fies Aver, Massac hu-
sets, where our recruits for the new
national army will be trained, is slight
ly less than ninety miles from New
Britain. Over the railroad route 1t is
considerably a longer journey,-about
one hundred and twenty-five miles.
In the census of 1910 Aver is rated
as having a population of 2,797 which
is a growth of three hundred and fifty
or so over the population ten years
nrevious In less than a fortnight
the population of this same town will
be jumped into the forty thousands.
This Is the one example of an Amert-
can village becoming a city over night.
To be exact, it has taken some three
months to make-over Aver from a
town to a place Of prominence. Three
months and an army of carpenters,
plumbers, bricklayers, and laborers of
all kinds. In that time there have
been erected more than one thousand
buildings, twenty miles or so of high
ways, eleven miles of water main, and
twenty-five miles of sewers. ALI the
conveniences of a modern city are
represented in their pristine state in
Aver There is no provision for a fire
department other than what the boys
themselves may form when they get
to the training camp. What policing
must be done will be left to the pro-
vost guard.
This is the place where our five
hundred and thirteen New Britain
boys will spend the best part Of the
coming fall and winter. 1t is twenty
eight miles northeast of worcester,
and, of course. within comparative
easy access. The journey is a little DIT
rough in spots, especially after the
train leaves Springfield; but such a
