The labor put into the manufacture of text books should bewcll paid for, but when the price charged is so high that it becomes graft it is time that our State Officials stop it. Atty, Gen.

We wish - to show aspirit' of fairness. and while e do not entirely agree with/Mr. Larson. we are giving him space in our editorial page. m Noah Shun newtoIMtfl: gun SIR-’It was with a good deal of interest I read the edito- rial by W. B. on the lecture by Mr. ,Carr on "The Fall of Capital- ism." and am glad to- note the spirit of fairness in which it was written but there are several state- ments In that editorial to which I, for one, take exceptions. . To begin with Mr. Carr has never before been characterized as an orator of the stump order. He is a popular Chautauqua lec- turer and has always been able to command ‘high. fees for his lec- tures. which he is now sacrificing for the cause in which he believes. I fail to understand wherein he depai'ted , from his subject and to my mind the application was quite clear. The statement that ”in choosing ‘capitalism for his theme he 'found ample ~3cdpe for his de- clamatory powers. but in; doing :0 he had no time to show the way outfit, hardly seems ”justifiable in view of the fact that Mr. Cart declared the capitalistic system to be built on a foundation of rent, piotit and interest which socialism proposes to destroy and replace by giving the produce: the full product of his labor. .‘The issue between Capitalism and Socialism is clam cut. Rent piofit. interest and labor- -saving machinery has been the means of concentrating the means of life into the hands of afew and en-' sleving the many. SATURDAY, JUNE :9; I909 A Cheaper Education; Anal-did: to the chiglist phi; H. P. DAVIDSON. 2mm- TH“ SHO E SfLETTEK HIGHLAND PAxx. June 5.1909. _______,_ ‘ . - 1...»? a ' losopby there ‘is plenty in the world for all and that by doing away "with rent. profit and interest, giving theproducer the full prod- uct of his labor, all will have an equal opportunity at the start and will findtheir true level according" to their ability. It is quite'evi-‘ Ldent that some more practical thing than preachiugagainst greed will have to be done to bring about the salvation of the human race. Greed and selfishness have been thundered against by the press and pulpit ever since‘the eivilization of our race began but conditions _are steadily getting worse. There are never less than two million unemployed in the United States and this figure jumps to ten millions whena financial crisis strikes us. > In regard to capital being neces- sary'to production, of course it is, but it is not necessary that capital be controlled by a few. our great college professors to the contrary. (See ‘article by Bolce in Cosmo- politan for June, 1909.) The great crying need of: our time is the education of the masses} which gigantic task the Socialists have undertaken to accomplish and will accomplish because they are inspired by the righteousness of their cause, by the fact that the foundation on which Socialism rests is instice, and by the spirit of rebellion that caused om: fore- fathers to rebel against the tyranny of King George. So far as the laboring man is concerned capitalism IS competi- tion in that he must compete not only with steam and eleétricity, but also with the unempioyed "above referred to. . In conclusion let me say that the idea conveyed in the last par- agraph is the old idea that a cor- rupt system can be reformed from within. This is a fallacy. The old Must be replaced by the new when the old has outlived its use- fulness. ' Yours truly, , C. A. LARSON. 123 McGovern St. City.
