ANOTHER VICTIM

The latest victim of the Post
Office censorship is The New
Times, a Socialist weekly news
paper published in Minneapolis,
MINI. The usual Kangaroo farce
is staged. The victim is cited
to appear on a certain date to
answer charges that will be
made known at the time of the
hearing, on which the publication
has been prejudged and con-
demned.
Regarding this matter The New
Times says:
"The inevitable has happened.
The New Times has learned that
we are fighting for democracy
in Germany. The information
came through the Kaiser's I'M
derstudy in Neutrality-suspicious.
master Burlescn. We have re-
ceIved notice that a hearing will
be granted 2 p. m. on Friday,
April 18th, 1918 ''to show cause
why the authorization Of admis-
sion of The New Times to the
second class of mail matter should
not be revoked upon the follow
ing ground: This publication be-
ing in conflict with the Act of
June Is, 1917 Espionage Law"
mo specific charges are made
we are asked to prepare de-
Tense of charges that are not
stated. German autccracy could
not be worse than this. If this
is an example of the kind of de-
mocracy we are trying to bring
to Germany, the German people
can not be blamed for spurning
it,"

lean flag was obtained and, with
this as a background, Mr.. Buell.
mounted an improvised platform
and began his address.
Mr.. Buell had just gotten start
ed when Town Marshal Courtney
stepred up and declared that Mr..
Buell. was under arrest. The ar
rest supposedly was for attempting
to hold a meeting forbidden by
the so-called "war board" although
there was no warrant or pretense
of legal procedure. The veteran
justice of the peace, whose prem
Uses had been invaded in this
manner bv the town marshal, de-
CARED that if the marshal at
tempted to arrest Mr.. Buell. or
break up the meeting, he-Ver-
D'ank-would arrest the marshal
for unlawful interference with
a reaceable assemblage." At
about this time the sheriff ap-
peared in the crowd and ordered
the meeting stopped.
The farmers were boiling an
"rv. Their Indignation could
scarcely be restrained. They con-
trolled themselves, however, and
an attempt was made to convince
the marshal and the sheriff that
they were taking an indefensible
and illegal position. AS spokes-
nan for the farmers, Mr.. Buell.
again explained to the peace Of
ficers that the "war board" had
10 legal basis; that, even if an
attempt was made to carry out
he order stopping the meeting,
here was at least no basis for
The arrest Of the speaker. The
sheriff at least saw the force of
his, and no further attempt was
'2ade to arrest anybody.
Smarting under this denial of
heir rights and the violation of
he law and constitution of the
tate, indignant to the degree
'vhere it was difficult for them
20 control themselves, the farm
us decided not to hold a meet
ng. They decided not to stand
on their rights. They reached
this decision in the interests of
0eace and order, and decided to
determine their rights later by
egal methods.

on not for profit but for consump-
ton, when socialized production
will be carried on by society; in
short, when society at large will
be the master of its own eco
nomic destiny. Such a revolu-
ton in economic life demands a
radical revision and REIMBURSEMENT
of our moral conceptions; it de-
mands a clear vision of the drift
of our time and a great deal of
enthusiasm in the cause of hui
man welfare.

FARMER MEETING
BROKEN UP

st. Paul-Farmers of Waseca
county, Mimi, decided to hold a
big meeting at New Richland in
the interest of the Minnesota la
bor-farmer candidates for state
offices. and to discuss the issues
Of the campaign. A committee
CT the farmers waited on the coun-
ty sheriff prior to the meeting,
and was assured that no attempt
would he made to prevent the
gathering. and that ample pro-
lection would be afforded if hood
lums, inflamed by Nonpartisan
League enemies, attempted any
disorder.
AS a speaker for the meeting,
the farmers obtained c. j. Buell.,
a man widely known in Mime
sofa for more than 80 years.
New Richland was full of farm
ers from the surrounding coun-
try on the day that the meeting
was advertised to take place.
Just prior to the time that the
big meeting was to assemble, Tom
Courtney, town marshal, waited
on the committee in charge of
the meeting and presented an or
der, signed by Sheriff Bernard
Fischer. commanding that the
scheduled meeting be cancelled,
and further ordering that no
farmers meeting should be held
at any other point in the coun-
try.
Investigations showed that the
sheriff had been ordered to stop
the meeting by a so-called "war
board" which had been hastily
assembled the day before and had
notified the sheriff to stop the
meeting. The first notice that
the farmers ana Mr.. buell. mad

THE PASSING
OF CAPITALISM
By Isador Ladoff

why QOeS capitalism flOurlSh IN
our midst like a venomous fun
gold? Why did the greatest
achievement of the human genius
in the conquest of dead matter re-
suit in the actual return of bar
barism? Simply because our phil
osophy of life is behind our prog
gress in the domain of purely
material or industrial activity.
Simply because the modern meth
DDS of production and distribu-
ton of wealth are far more ad-
Vanced than our ideals and con-
"eptiors about right and wrong.
Our methods of economic ac
tlvlty are Incorporating (although
incompletely) the progressive
principle of Socialism, while our
philosophy Of life, our moral
ideals, remain still Individuals
tic or anarchistic.
In this incongruity, in this con-
tTadiction between our conception
of human irter-relations on the
one hand and actual material con-
ditlons on the other, is concealed
the center of gravity of all So
cial problems of the day. This
incongruity and contradiction is
felt instinctively by everybody.
Very few, however, have a clear
vision of the hidden causes of
these phenomena. Deep is the
general unrest, broad is the gen

u. S. Officer Held
With Two Others
In German Plot
Secret Federal Papers Are
Found in Brooklyn; Movie
Promoter Held

A captain in the United States army
has been arrested, it was learned yes
terday from Assistant United States
Attorney Beer, and is held in Washing
ton following the discovery of govern
ment documents Of the highest impor-
tance in the Brooklyn home of Felix
Malitz, who, with his secretary. Gus
tave Engler, is under arrest charged
with spreading German propaganda in
this country.
Malitz, who until few weeks ago
was president Of the American Cor
respondencc Film Company, Of Rector
Street, was arrested with his secretary
on the charge Of attempting to snug
gle rubber out of the country to Ger
many. When arraigned before Federal
Judge Chatfeld additional charges of
spreading German propaganda were
made against him. and he was locked up
in the Raymond Street Jail in default
of $4,000 bail.
A few days ago Federal officials
searched his rooms. The documents
that they found there were at once re-
turned to the War Department at
Washington and the arrest of the army
captain followed. Mr.. Beer said yes
terday that Malitz had obtained these
papers with the help Of the officer.
The Federal attorney also charged
that the captain had acted as go-bc-
tween for Malitz in his purchase of
the picture rights Of Ambassador
Gerard's book, "My Four Years in Ger
many"
Malitz has been producing a moving
picture, BATTLES of Nation.' This,
Mr.. Beer said is clever piece of Ger
man propaganda. He added that he
believed Malitz to be one of the most
dangerous pro-Germans in the country.
1t is understood that the captain re
Gently obtained his commission in the
National Army. He is said to have
made a speech, very German in
tone, since he entered the service.
The War Department at Washington
would not discuss the matter last night.
