Since this orcanl'.n- ilon, namely, the Dobsltes, or social democ racy, was llrst organized Its name, as we novo stated, has been changed from social democracy to social democrats, and on Julv 19. 1901. at a unity conference, held In Indianapolis, Ind., while opposing tho so clnllst labor party at overy turn In tho road.
