With eloquence and skill,
And wakea them all, both weak and

To a responsive thrill.

He wants to change his mind.

Letter from Mr.
M. H. Connor
Editor Herald:
My attention has been called to the
urgent request of the Hon. A. M.
Knight, chairman of the Democratic
Executive Committee of Wars eoua-
ty, in which he polnto out the neces
sity of all Democrats turning out on
tho 14th to rote for W. H. Buchanan
for representative to fill oat the unex-
plred term of the Hon. J. M. Spence.
Mr. Knight appenn to be laboring
under the impression that the Bocal-
lats are attempting to deceive the vot
er* of Ware county Into voting -the
Socialist ticket by the use of the word
"Democratic.” Now for the facte, 1st:
it earner about partially. by ah- over-
tight, aud partially from the fact that
lu the state of New York sad WJe-
consln the Socialist Labor party hav
ing become an official party and hav
ing been given a place upon-the official
ballot denied the Socialists (or Debe
Party) the use of the name unices
some other word of distinction was
added. We had n similar occurrence
In 1898, when the Palmer and Buck-
her Democrats had to.add.the word
‘fcold.’’
We are only straight Socialists and
stand ready at all times and places
to defend our "colors," The wprd
Socialist has ceased to be a bug-bear
but 1s synonymous with progress, and
the party Is composed principally of
the best writers and thinkers of all
nations.
The Socialist party does not wish
to tear down but is the only construe-
tlve party, having a well defij
finite International program,
we invite all to Investigate befori
demnlng. Now, we never go
looking for "available" candidate
nor seize upon the mistakes of our
enemies or Issues upon which to wage
a campaign. Our campaigns are per-
petual and educational, and will con
tinue to be, until the brotherhood of
man, and the fatherhood of God Is re
cognized the world over—where all
may work without let or hlnderance
and receive In return the full proceeds
of their labor. A “sane" system
where the success of one does not
mean the ruin of hundreds and thous
ands of others.
