Socialism and Democracy

socialism and Democracy
The extremes to which the Social
lists of Europe are going should be
warning to those who sometimes
listen to our soap box orators
All through Europe the Socialists
are expressing their hatred of what
they call the bourgeois class
The bourgeois" is defined by the
dictionary as person of the com.
mercial or middle class. Practically
1t means anyone who has thrift and
energy enough to lay up a little
money. The hard working grocer
who drives his little Ford around
the corner to deliver you your ten
cent box of cereal. is a hated "bour
geois," because he has a bit of
money ahead. Down with him"
Tne toilsome mecnanic who has
saved up money enough to buy a
few Liberty bonds would probably
be called a bourgeois"
In Russia, where Socialism has
had free rein, the so called "bour-
geois" class has been deprived of
all share in the government. The
gang in power dissolved their legal
ly elected Constituent Assembly by
decree as autocratic as the Car
ever issued Apparently there will
be no universal suffrage, because
the bourgeois are not likely to be
permitted to vote Even in Ger
many the drift seems to be to ex.
clude the bourgeois" classes from a
share in forming the new govern
ment.
The Principles of Amarica de
mOcracy teach that all men are
free and equal, and all entitled to a
! share in the government Russian
Bolshevism, which our Socialists
admire so heartily. teaches that the
man IF prudence and thrift; who
helps TO create the means of pro
duction, is the enemy of his com.
munity, and must be excluded from
share in the government While
this is a country of free speech. and
it never pays to confine not air, our
people should realize just what
Socialism means and what it would
do if it could

Navy Wants Men

Lieut. F. M. Wilson in charge of
Navy recruiting in Missouri has an
uounced that the Navy recruiting
headquarters in ST. Louis was re-
ceivine applications for enlistment
in the Navy. Tne enlistments are
for the regular four.year term.
Lieut.. Wilson announces that
men are especially wanted for the
following branches: Fireman, ma
chinist's mates, radio electrician.
shipwriehts, boilermakers, cooks
and hospital apprentice seaman.
The age limits are from Is to 35.
Applicants must pay their own
transportation to ST. Louis where
they will be examined at recruiting
headquarters, 7th & Chestnut SITS.
Those who pass the physical ex-
animation will be sent immediately
to the training stations

Antiquated Sustem

The American people elect their
governors and legislatures in most
states on the Tuesday after the
first Monday in November. In
most states these officers take their
posts soon after January 1 The in
terVening time is ample.
We elect our Congressman and
Presidents on the same date The
Congress, unless called in special
session does not meet until 13
months after it was elected. Could
anything be more ridiculous? And
the country has to wait four months
before a new president takes his
seat.
In these days we are trying to put
government on a business basis. If
you hire a man to do some job fer
you in your own business. you don't
want him to wait Is months before
going to work In most cases you
would kick if he demanded a month
to get ready for the change.
The original reason was that per-
haps in the days before railroads,
ii took people some me nths to max e
the journey to Washington by stage
There is no use in running the gov q.
ernment to-day on the stage coach
principle.
This arrangement interferes with
the work of Congress. After the
election has passed, the Congress
men feel much less interest in the
performance of their duties, part,
icularly those who were defeated
They are inattentive. Ii is notori,
Gus that little business is done iu
the session after election.
1t would not probably be Difficult
to get the state legislatures to ratify
an amendment changing the times
when the Congress meets and the
president take Office, if Congress
would only give some thought t
the matter and pass it
Washington people might objec
to January 1 inauguration on the
ground that it is not a good time o
year for professions But the coun
try can not hold up its busines
merely because Washington want,
a blow out,

The Hungarian government has
decided to intern the whole of Field

MT. and Mrs. Robert E. Lee, who were quietly married here on May 9th, are enjoying their honeymoon in sunny California. Before returning to Nogales, Mir. and Mrs. Lee, nee Miss Anna Louise Ohlbach, will visit the lady's mother and other re- latives in Denver, Colorado. They will make their home at 2O6 Crawford street, Nogales, Arizona.
 Last Monday about one o'clock. fire destroyed the major portion of the roof on the east half of the Nogales Public School, and water damaged much of the plaster in the big building. The loss is estimated at about five thousand dollars, covered by in- surance. An overloaded chim- ney was the cause of the blaze. Within a very few minutes after the alarm was sounded, Chief Bracey Curtis and his splendid fire fighters, were on the scene and by prompt work, soon had the flames under control, thereby preventing the total destruction of Nogales' fine big public school building. The work of the vol unteer fire fighters, would have done credit to professional fire fighters in large city.
