LIKE AN IM BEC1LE OLD FATHER," Sayn Weaver, "rias riainherited its Children, Bat They'll Break theWilL" To a symposium entitled ?"Socialism in America," and published in the New York World, General James B Weaver of Iowa contributes the fo> lowing To tne Editor of the World: The movement toward a clallsm in the Unlaced States and elsewhere fs strict ly defensive and abnormal. It re sembles the movere ents of opposing armies in the field. The socialists prefer that the multitude shall own and operate everything rather than 2 that a few shall absorb all. It is economic war, and lying hidden with in it; are dislocations fearful to con template. The same plutocratic faces wbioh engendered socialism in the old world have begotten it bere and are giving it growth, strength and vitality Senator Hanna's prophetic visicn was dear and accurate if his econo mic and political theories are to con tinue. He c mtempla'ed a continu acos of the present plutocratic re girre and he had at that very time been slated by monopolistic wealth for eight years' service as president of tb United States. Visions of gigantic trait combinations and sh'p subsidy schemes controlled his great brain. Under suoh conditions, of course, nothing culd avert tbe socialistic i-.- j sue in 1912. He would have forced' exactly .that issue had be lived and j succeeded In his ambitions. He, his I conferes and asscciates have precipit ated a Ufe-and death struggle between artificial persons created by tbe state, called corporations, and natural per sons of flesh and blood created by the Almighty. The former, reinforced by an allied army of speculators, have driven the men of flesh and blood into the overcrowded market of day labv-r-! era, have absorbed the sources of wealth, including the sol!; have set' the laboring men at war with them iselres, while the government in all its branches is used chiefly as a police force to keep tbe peace while the cor-I pomtionB get in their work. I The allied corporations say nobody j shall do business but themselves and ' that competition shall be eliminated. They have forced labor to say that a mm who does not belong to tbe union soa-i not work, and they will say whether or not he may join. The past generation, like an imbecile old latner, naa disinherited its children. They will break the will. Tbe nenate of the United States at tills moment is creating socialists faster than they can be organized and equipped. It is a great socialiseo re cruiting station and Is destroying pa triotism faster than Abraham Lin coln ever built it up. Nothing but a sudden bait in political affairs, state and national, and a- change In public policy, can avert the struggle It is an ugly condition, but the conflict, as was once before *mq case, ia again irrepressible if present conditions are to continue. Fortunately there are signs of an awakening, and it Is na tion wide. It Is adumbrated in the skies. Something is shaking the conscience of tbe nation ai d It is not socialism. It is simply tbe mighty tread of true democracy and Christ lanity walking hand in t and. Do not be alarmed. Tbe alliance is woolly holy. There Is neither excuse nor necessity for socialism in this count r> if the government will honestly and conservatively align Itself once more with the pe pie. But let me assure the reader that the safety of both pr.rsons sod property demands that this sbail be done speedily and without sham. How to check the growth of so cialism: First?There must be less money spent for military and naval estab lishments and more for reclaiming our unwatered empire, thus furnish ing homes for destitute people, and we should help poor settlers if need be to get a start. Our policy in this particular must be broad, liberal, ag gressive and must be inaugurated at once. The army of foreigners dally landing upon our shores can then be consistently required to settle upon and cultivate this reclaimed land. Second?We must take up the ques tion of land reform, nationally and in Btates. Land monopoly is monstrous, unChristian and unclvllzsd. Third?There i3 but one way to control the railroads, lb is not neces sary that the government shall own and operate our vast railway system. The tentative way to approach that problem Is to pass an act author, zing the government to construct or pur chase three transcontinental lines? north, south and through the center of the continent. If suoh a law were passed tbe present lines would be Quick to sell at reasonable rates. Questions of connecting with these lines ana all subsidiary and collateral matters would be easy of adjustment. OUR BUSINESS. If a man loves a maid, If a maid loves a man, ? If they marry, That's their business. f That's his business. I That's her business. 1 i m ? But When They Want Sash, Doors, Blinds, Lime, Cement Plaster, Hay, Corn and Oats in Car Lots, Rice Flour, Wheat Bran, Field Seed. THAT'S OUR BUSINESS. We carry the largest and best stock and at lowest prices. ? Ayers & Williams. ? Fourth?We must eleot United Statas senators by popular vote. Fi'in?Tne struggle for community control of public utilities must con i tinue?and it will. Restore tbe com petitive equilibrium even if we have to discourage corporations for private i gain. If they will insist on destroy ing competition and crushing tbe lu dividual, to that extent destroy them by recalling tbeir charters If it is a question of which shall live?the cor poration or tbe man?let the man j survive. Tbe duty of the state is to the Individual. The remedies will be tried first before the nation takes tbe Cimmerian leap into socialism on , the wide scale ontemplated by your j question. Sixth?Finally,nominate and eleot a conservative ticket in 1908 whose very names will .inspire confidence in ail classes. It will not be bard to find such a ticket, but it will have to be selected with a view of tackling living and vital lssnes. No namby-pamby administration at war with itself can possibly grapple with the mighty problems now pressing for solution. J,ames B. Weaves. Golfes. Ia..

An Appeal to Unite Against t?n Dlr penoary System. Tbe address below has been sent to The News and Oc urler for publication It will be observed that It In signed by a number of gentlemen wbo have oeen conspicuous In their opposition to the State dispensary. To tue Democratic Voters of South Carolina: As citizens of South Caro lina opposed to the present State dis pensary system, we, the und? rsigoed, call upon our fellow oltlzens of like opinion to unite for the purpose of or ganlzing the opposition to the dispen sary system So nearly "?! one mind concerolng the dispensary system are the p sople of the State, that it is only by their failure to unite for action that the dispensary can be preserved. It U only by default that the dispensary can win another victory, before tht electors or in the Legislature, and it will be foolhardy for those who desto its overthrow to sit supinely by and see the pernicious system again en throned in power in ou* Common wealth. Every sincere, patriotio oitfzer must regret that this issue should b< again the paramount question in a South Carolina campaign. But so long will it continue to be the paramount issue, and it should, therefore, be tbe desire of every thoughtful citizen tc see this festering sure removtd and a healthier c mdicio 1 secured. To this end we invite the co operation of all those who believe the State dispen sary system to he- an evil and propos that, other d tiering policies for tbe time being la'.a aside, the demind, first, now, be nude that the State dispensary system shall be des royed. Oi trial now for thlrte. n years, forti? d all the time by strong tup port an-1 as truly protected bv un oeasiLg criticism and watchfulness, there is no need to point cut the evils which tne State monopoly of the whh.key traffic has bred. Corruption aj the k uotain hea'i and in its branch va, drunkeoues* and murder, wue and misery have been its products. A pernicious political machine of gigan tic proportion^,, with a beavered looby In Columbia, ?ud a willing rlrg in every county, the monster has waxed fat, insolent and defiant. Tne will of the people has been perverted and suppre.^Sid, and when finally demand ing expression that demand has b?eu thwar.ed and circumvented by appeals to the trlval technicalities of the law. In eignteen counties the people have spi ken and in all these except two thir voice has in tnunder tones repudiated the systim. In other coun ties they are now reaay to give cxpies aiuu to their will awaiting the sum mer mlmary. In this primary, where the life or the death of the dispensary will be and should be decided, It Is vitally necessary shall be active and united. It is only by action and un ion that the dispensary has been vot ed out of sixteen counties under the Brlce law and by no other means than action and union can the system be up rooted from the State. The people are decided. It merely remains for them to make their de cision effective. Thtv must choose representatives who will repeal such laws as they desire to have repealed, and who will enact suoh laws as they desire enacted. Then they must put in office men who, in full sympathy, will enforce jistly and vigorously whatsver laws are upon the btatute books. The people have shown, by their eager acceptance of the only op portunity accorded them, that they believe in tbe prinolple of local self government, and now, lest they have this inalienable right again wrested from them, the free citizens of South Carolina must make tbelr sovereign power felt. There must be eke red a Legislature which will not renounce this principle, whlob will not yield to tbe dspensary machine there must be eleoted executive and prosecuting officials who will not permit tbe law to be made a rrr ckery for its un lo in;:. We tuggeBt consultation and co-op eration in every county and through out tbe State that these ends may be attained. J. S. Brioe, J. C. Otts, D. B. Ook er, James A. Hoyt, Louis J Bristow, W. L.

It saved me from worse than the tortures of hades, about the year 1900, with 'tching on my scalp and temples, an^ afterwards it commenced to 1 -k out on my hands. Then it brc jut on my limbs. I was advised to use salt and water, which I did, to no effect. I then went to a Surgeon, who commenced treating me with a wash of borax. This treatment did me no good, but ralher aggravated tlie disease. I then told him 1 would go and sec a phy sician in Erie. The re ply was that I could go anywhere, but a case of eczema like mine could not be cured; that I was too old (80). 1 went to an eminent doctor in the city'of Eric and treated with him for .six months, with like results. I had read of the Cu ticura Remedies often. I was strongly tempted to give them a trial, so I sent for the Cutlctira Soap, Ointment, and Resolvent and continued taking the Resolvent until I had taken six bottles, stopping it to take the Pills. I was now getting better. I took two balhsa day, and at night I let the lather of the Soap dry on. I used the Ointment with great effect after washing in warm water, to stop the itching at once. I am now cured. "The Cuticura treatment is a blessing and should be used by every one who has itching of the skin. I can't say any more, and thank Clod that lie has given the world such a curative.
