when ' he noticed tha tnan'a head on the

Much to hla surprise Palmer waa found
to be only suffering from three cuta on the

Palmer waa conveyed to hla home nearby

said ha had no serious clrtlclsm to make
of the plans as It appeared to him that
the city engineer had given' tha plana
thought and time. Ha admitted, however,
that ha would probably suggest soma
changea.
In answer to a question If he thought
that tha plant could .be constructed ac
cording to Mr. Etnyre's plans for the sum
estimated by the city engineer, Mr. Bryan
said he thought it could but ha wanted It
underatood that thla waa only an off hand
opinion and that he eould not give a defl
nle one until ha had checked over hla
fig-urea and the data he had obtained
while In Council Bluffa.

Theoretical Socialism.
Two thousand people gathered at the
big tabernacle tent on the Bellevue chau
tauqua grounds Sunday afternoon to hear
the address of Dr. Frank Dixon of Wash
ington, D. C, on the subject, "The Man
Against the Mass." Dr. Dixon is tna
younger brother of Thomas Dixon, Jr., the
noted lecturer and author of "The Leop
ard a Boots" and the "Clanaman." Dr.
Frank Dixon beara a atrong resemblance
to h!s famous brother, both In his physi
cal appearance and manner of delivery.
The Chautauqua closed with this meeting.
I have never been able to determine
the advantage of being a younger brother,"
said he, "and ss doubtless many of you
here have seen and heard my big brother.
find that I am constantly crossing Ills
path. But I want to say right here for
the benefit of you that have not yet heard
me, that I can beat Tom lecturing all to
pieces, but I don't like to do It. I have
not written a novel yet, but I am going
to and it will knock tha spots oft Tom's
Leopard's Spots.' But of my subject. Let
me first say that I am not a socialist. A
socialist la a man who Is hunting for
trouble, and of courae a man hunting for
trouble ia sooner or later easily accommo
dated. Wa ahould all be- Interested In the
question of socialism. It Is aa old as
human experience and aa wide as the his
tory of humanity. The man who calls
himself a socialist does not fully unusr-
stand ths thing he calls socialism.
Deflaltloa ex Socialism.
'What Is. Soclallam? It does not mean
the aelaure and equal distribution of all
properly. Socialism Is not anarchy. But
both aim at the aame thing the equality
of law. The anarchist says that law la
an ordinance paaaed by one aet of people
to hold the weaker In subjection. The
rich can buy the construction of the law
for their benefit, while the poor are made
subject to the letter of the law. Hence,
tha anarchist claims that all- law should
be abolished, ahd that all government
based on law should be abolished. . The
socialist holds an entirely different view.
Ha believes In enlarging the sphere of tha
government and that the commonwealth
ahould be cared for exactly as an army,
all fed and treated alike. Tha liberty of
the Individual Is dead In the army. This
then ia the foundation rock of socialism.
Socialism would sacrifice ths Individual to
the government, while snarchy would sac
rifice the government to the Individual.
Democracy upholds the Independence of
the Individual, and this Is precisely for
what anarchy contends though In a more
radical sense.
Politics aad Baslaesa.
"SjciaJWra contenda for paternalism in all
things, and cites the Postofflce depart
ment as a sample. Admitted. Yet there
haa been more scandal and corruption in
the Postofflce department than all other
departmenta of the government combined.
Yet, no department of the government la
closer to the people, nor as a rule are
there any more honest officials than those
of the postofflce department. The method
of government la politics, and the domi
nant principle of politics Is the crest of
popularity. The dominant principle of
business Is efficiency. How much do
you-suppose it is going to " cost -US to
build the Panama canal? How much
has it cost us to build court bouses and
stats capltola? See New York and Penn
sylvania for further partlcu'ara It coa;s
600 per cent more to build for the gov
ernment than for the Individual, and by
business methods. The Panama canal will
coat ua two btlllona of dollara before It ia
finished, and It will take twenty years to
finish It, and then there will ' be twenty
more years of scandal Investigations In con
gress, growing out of It. To dig a ditch
with a ballot la different from business.
But we must dig that ditch at any cost.
Wall Street vs. Debs.
"The tendency of the modern world Is
to crush out the individual. Monopiy is
crushing out Individualism. Wall atreet ia
the real socialist, not Eugene Debs. Un
less this socialistic monopiy of Wall street
la overcome theoretical socialism will oome
Within the next generation. We have got
to restore competition. Soc'aliats declare
monopiy as the arch criminal of modern
times. Yet, I csnnot agree with this merci
less arraignment of capital and capitalists.
Aa a rule the capitalists of the modern
day waa born In humble circumstances.
"Socialism Is growing. It has become
the third party. Ten years ago It polled
dui o,uw votea. Today it will poll over
half a million, t'nconsclous socialism is
the universal peril. It believes In the right
of the weak man to ride on the strong
man's tack. There are times when the
principle of Brotherhood must be severe,
and when kindness should know no pity.
The true principle of brotherhood Is first
to do the best for yourself and voluntarily
whst you an -for your fellowman. The
nation with the fewest laws Is the most
enduring nation. Respect the conscience of
your neighbor. Blessed be the man that
win mina nis own - business. This Is a
nation of Individual responaiblllty. No gov
ernment has a right to Intrude upon my
Individuality. My soul Is responsible to
God. There Is no obligation without a cor
responding right. You can pauperise any
man who will accept your aid. Soclallam
would pauperise every man. Self reliance
la the supreme virtue. The Individual Is
ths savior of man In every cr'ala of humin
history. Every evil haa Its remedy.
"If there Is a burden on the back of
humanity, some man has put It there. It
ia our duty to take that burden off and
give humanity a chance. Remedlea will
bs found by Individual effort. Everything
Ilea In the virtue and Intelligence of the
Individual.. The faith of man la in the
maas ot men."

We Have Planted Tomatoes On
1,200 More Acres
This year we've added 1,200 acres to our tomato patch. Just to raise tho
tomatoes for making the sauce that goes on Van Camp's Beans.
The demand for Van Camp's Beans is growing by
leaps and bounds. It is now larger, by several times
over, than for any other brand in the world.
Yet It is only beginning. There are millions of house
wives still baking their own beans. They will all let us
bake for them when they know Van Camp's.
And thousands are still buying other brandssimply
because they don't know. Some time they will get a can
of Van Camp's. Then they'll be our customers, too.
So we have planted 1,200 more acres to tomatoes, to
upply your demands next year.
other beans cannot compare with Van
reason why
Camp 's.
Another reason lies in the beans themselves.
We buy only the choicest Michigan beans, grown on a
soil rich in nitrogen. They are picked over by hand, so
we get only the whitest, the plumpest, the fullest-grown.
,We often pay for such beans seven or eight times what
other beans can be bought for. But you can see the re
sult if you compare other beans with Van Camp's.
"We have told you about our tomato sauce.
We make it solely from whole, ripe tomatoes, grown
close to our kitchens, and ripened on the vines.
We pick these tomatoes just at the crest of their ripe
ness when the juice fairly sparkles. That's how we get
that superlative zest in the. sauce that's baked into our
beans.
Some sauce is made from tomatoes picked green and
ripened in shipment. Some is made of scraps from a
canning factory. Such sauce is not rich ; it lacks flavor.
But such sauce costs only one-fifth what we spend to
make ours. That's why it is often used. And that is one
F
Our beans are baked in live steam, heated to 245 de
grees. We bake in small parcels, so that the full'beat
goes through.
The result is, the particles are separated, by the fierce
heat, so that the digestive juices can get to them.
That is not so with home-baked beans. Not half so
much heat gets to the center of your baking dish. The
result is, your beans don't digest. They ferment and
form gas.
Then we bake the beans, the tomato sauce and the pork
all together and get a delicious blend.
In these ways we prepare, after 47 years of experi
ence, the finest beans ever baked. The millions of peo
ple who know these beans never will use any other.

Have you begun to use Van Camp's? If not, ask your neighbor about
them. Learn for your own sake what you are missing. Millions are
now enjoying this delicious, economical, ready-cooked dish.
We don't need to argue about other brands of beans.
If somebody claims that his beans equal ours, simply try
them and see. We are willing to abide by your judgment.
Bytwe dd wish to argue about home-baked beans.
Beane to be good for you must be digestible. And, to be
diges'tjbie', they must be factory cooked.
You don't want to eat beans that ferment and form
gas that don't digest, don't nourish.
. You don't want some beans crisped, and others less
than half baked. You want them all baked alike.
You don't want them mushy and broken. You do want
them nutty, mealy and whole.
You can't bake beans as they should be baked. You

"What I have done haa not been for the
purpoae of making money," he ssid, "but
simply because matters were becoming

someone to try to make a bsd situation
better. Some of us do not believe that It
will be a good thing for the country gen
erally If more rallroada go Into the hands
of receivers, so ws are doing what we can
to prevent thla In the Intereat of self-preservation.
That Is sll there is to It. In fact,
things havs become ao complex that I
scarcely know where I am. I am going
out to the Blsklyou-mountslns to think over
the altuatlon, and when I come back I
may be able to talk Intelligently concern
ing the future.
"But In the meantime I ahould Ilka to
have It underatood that there ia no deep
laid plot back of lt..,The matter of Wheel
ing A Lake Erie. notea waa simply a trans
action necessary to aave a railroad, and
thereby benefit all rallroada alike."
"Will the Erie gain an entry Into Pitta-
burg over the tracks of the Wheeling aV
Lake Erie?" he waa asked.
"I do not know anything about that,' My
Interest in the Erie Is the same ae my in
terest In the other affair, that ot making
better things in general." . ' . ; ;
"What effect will the change in condi
tion have upon the proposed Gould outlet
to the seaT"
"Oh, I fancy that there Is a good dsal
of moonshine In that, but I do not know.
There la no telling what the effect will be,
but we hope it will be for the general
good."
Mr. Harrlman said he had no intention of
retiring.
"I would like to get away from It, but I
can not Can you point any way In wbch
I can escape? I almply muat go on."
