Sociafism Was ‘ Atly Discussed -tmm cwu “kuuvâ€"v :At‘tfie close of the thoughtful ad- Kylie «closed by asking all thosai wt to consider these qpestions, , -race largely determined Social. con- ditions, 'which could never: be rem‘ edied by changes in the lair alone. The speaker developed a construc- tive policy which could be substitut- ed for Socialjsm, the framework of this}: Was the improvement of edu- -c:tion.i public ownership, profit -fiating andthehigher spirit of pub- lic service: .‘In some of the late W *the employees are given the opportunity of stock holding, M Kylie Lecmres on the Subject at the Academv of Music 0.0 of the most interesting lectur- a hoard in this town fbr some time. “that on “Socialism” delivered 3pm the fair performer, as also did avocalsoloby Miss Fleuryand a violin selection by Miss Cairns. Prof. Kylie commenced his address by a general definition of Socialism He dsscribed it as either robbery of religion, the confiscation cf the goods of the rich or a faith in hu- manity. Socialism had increased conâ€" :siderably during the last few years, iespecially 'in the European coun- tries, such as Belgium, France and England. In the latter country it has made rapid strides, especially +nrnr divided Socialism into Ida: the auspices of the C. L. S. h the Academy of Music on Tues- iu evening by Prof. E. J. Kylie, tucker of history at Toronto Uniâ€" vu'lity. The attendance was fairly ‘hrgc, but not so large as the occa- don deserved. Those who attended, turer divided Socialism into .three classes, the first known as among the working class. The lec- “Popular Socialism,” and the sec- mid, “Intellectual Socialism.” The ‘itonner class is spreading rapidly mong the lower classes, and is preached continually on the street corners. It was, in effect, revolution, and was based on a misconception of the true relation between capital and labor. There is only one class however, heard a very concise and vell- delivered presentation of one of the most interesting subjects of th day. It. Peter Kennedy occupied the chair, and before introducing Pro- !essor Kylie, he called upon Miss Kingsley to render an instrumental 8010, 'which was done in a. manner that the socialist calls a laborer, and that‘ is the man who has his coat off and is made to work by the sweat of his brow. The man with his coat on. according to the Socialist, idea, is not a lahlorer. Where, then, does the doctor, the teacher, the druggist, etc., come in? Are they not laborers also ? Unfier the So- cialist scheme, all wag-es will be equal, the wages will be paid by the state. How many officials would the state need, asked the speaker, if all the business were to be looked af- eye on the wealth and think if they mark their [ballot for Socialism that that wealth will be within their grasp. What was described as the intellectual and saner form of Socialism was next considered. Its chief defect, said the speaker, was that it attributed too much importâ€" ance to laws and institutions and not enough to human nature and the proper spirit of public service. The moral standard reached by the equal, the wages will be paid by the state. How many officials would the state need, asked the. speaker, if all the business were to be looked af- ter by them. Under ithe conditions of today a man is forced to work or starve, but by the Socialist state they are not bound to work, but win he kept up, just the same as the rthat the wealth of the land is be- coming‘defused and is gradually sift- ing down among the people. The Mist today is an enterprising .man who is opening up the channels of wealth, not the tyrant Who is trying to rob his employees. Social- ism is growing among the working class today, because they have their man who works all day. An import- ant point in the consideration of_ so- ciological questions which was em- ployed by Prof. Kylie was the fal- sity of the statement often made that capital was only in a. few hands. The statistics today show PROF. EDWARD KYLIE. were not worth the to say that care should be taken in the selection of the variety sown. Among the several varieties sown in this country the. old reliable Wild Goose is undoubtedly the best, par- ticularly so since it can be sown several days later than the other Looking toward Chicagb. the great wheat trading centre of America, we see $1.07.: offered for September wheat and while this may appear to some as a money making scheme on the part 01 tne speculators, yet J. J. Hill states that if the wheat crop of the United States were to be delayed one month in ripening, the republic would have to import wheat; thus showing that the actual supply of this staple cereal in America is ex- tremely limited. Beerbohgn‘ the great English trade statistician, gives it as his opinion that there will be .8. marked narrowing of the world’s supply before the new crop is . har- vested. All these facts considpred and with them the possibility of un. favorable conditions in any of the wheat producing countries of the world, make the wheat growing. [ques- 1 tion one worthy of serious thought. The farmers of Victoria county should give this matter some thought and not miss the opportun- ity of increasing their yearly profit by adding to their rotation a field of spring wheat. In view of the late- ness of the spring it might be well to say that care should be taken in Fumigate is ' The Watchword Moreover, there may have been tu- berculosis in the outgoing family and that disease, unless it is far advanc- ed, more easily than any other es- capes the notice of health authori- ties. Valuable Advice for Those Who are Changing Place of Residence 7 Soon will come the time when many families change their place of real- dence. It has been suggested by the health department of some cities that all who move will serve themselves well if they see to it that the rooms which they are about to occupy are thoroughly fumigated, so that any possible disease germs may be des- troyed. mg then closed by MS Save the King- -__‘,, If the health laws were never evad- ed in any community, such precau- tions would ’be unnecessary. But un- fortunately there is many a. case which is concealed from the authori- ties, and subsequently fumigation is omitted and germs of the disease re- main. The general tearing-up process or moving stirs up the dust and the possible germs which it holds. The ordinary cleaning with . scalp and water, mitigates the danger, but does not always remove it entirely. Fum- igation alone can accomplish the dos- truction of all germs. It is a precaution easy to take and if. mav be the means of averting it may be the means c sickness and even death. The Association Holds Annual Meeting and Discusses Various Topics Sturgeon Point Club Meeting A meeting of the executive of the Sturgeon Point Cottagers' Associa- tion was held in the oflice of Messrs. Hopkins Hopkins Tuesday, when matters relating to the plans for the comingse-ason were considered. Auditors were appointed to inspect the secretary’s accounts and it is understood that everything is in ex- cellent condition. The question of the annual regatta was also discussed and the advisabil- ity of securing first-class paddles as DOLLAR WHEAT FOR THE EARLIER ity of prizes D The need of a first-class pavilion at the point was also touched upon. A general meeting of .the association will be held on Wednesday, May 12. The present indications are that wheat will remain, for some time at least, one of our high priced com- modities. The statistics given by the Dominion Government some time ago state that in March of this pne- sent year, a little over 20 per cent. of last year’s crop of wheat was in Canadian granaries, and while this appears a large number of bushels, yet when we consider the visible sup- ply in the other wheatâ€"producing countries, it will easily be seen that this small 'surplus will soon find its way to market, and especially in view of the high price of wheat at the present. Moreover, we expect an addition to our population of at least 75,000 souls, most of whom will be in our country before the new crop is threshed, and will have to be provided with food. in some of the events was sug- tearingâ€"up process 0’ varieties, such as Red Fire. hung-ar- ian, or Calorado, and still give good. yields. Its excellence is further borne out by years of test in" the ex- perimental work at the experimental farm, Guelph, where it has always yielded from 5 to 15 bushels more per acre than any_ other variety.
