TALK ON SOCIALISM.
Howard J. Caldwell, of Philadelphia,
rollnea This Party's Belief, Points
Out DlfTeronco Between, a Soclnllst
nml an Anarchist, and Tells Wlmt
the Socialist Would Do t'o Banish
the Trlnls of tho Worklngman nnd
Olvo Him Moro of What He Pro
duces Small-Sized Audience in
Academy of Music.
Tho members of tho recently orfran
Issetl fJoelallHtlc. parly In this elly path
orcd In tho Academy of Music last
nlfrht to listen to an address on social
ism and wherein ,t differs from nn
archlsm, with which It Is so frequently
associated In the public.
Tho speaker was Howard .1. Cald
well, of Philadelphia. Mr. Caldwell Is
a lecturer, or speaker, under the direc
tion of tho state organization of the
National .Socialistic party. He has had
connection with trades unions since
his youth, particularly In Philadelphia,
where ho was an active worker and a
leader In tho light led by tho labor
unlom or that city. He Is also gen
eral orKanlzer of the American Feder
ation of "Labor. Ho Is a powerfully
built man, ho Is Intensely earnest and
would impress one as being a man of
force In organizations to which ho
might attach himself.
Mr. Caldwell spoke for over an hour
to a somewhat meagre aUondance.
After being Introduced by F. C. Hert
xog, of tho Central Labor union, leader
In this city nt the Socialist party, tho
speaker dwelt for over an hour on the
definition of socialism, of Its opposition
of belief to anarchy and what the
socialists hope to achieve nnd how
they propose to reach their ends.
Mr. Caldwell made a lengthy review
of labor conditions, suggesting nnd af
firming that the trials of tho working
man, the "wage slave" ho dubbed hlin,
were duo to a surplus of labor, this
being tho consequence of tho change
from ihe domestic system of labor of
years ago to the "commercial" system
of today. Tlie trade unions' movement
was the effort of tho worklngmen to
meet this condition of under consump
tion, caused by tho laborer not getting
his share of what ho produced. Tho
aim is to remove tho competition of
labor by demanding tho shortening of
hours ami thus Increasing wages, be
cause of tho demand that would bo
created for help.
Mr. Caldwell argued that tho "wage
sbivo" was getting but lfi per cent, ot
what he produced, and that he could
hope for no more while the "com
mercial" system prevailed, tlie system
that permits of such enormous profits
for the capitalist, while the laborer is
forced to be content with about one
seventh, according to statistics, of
what ho hits produced.
Trusts are a good thing, said Mr.
Caldwell, that i. if they arc public
trusts, trusts In the prollts of which
the worklnginnn could share to the
extent to which he has produced them.
This could only ho brought about by
tho public ownership of nil Industries,
tlie toel industry, the mining industry
and tho rest. Tho items of rent, Inter
est, etc., would be thus removed, what
they represented would go to tho
"wage slave" who produced tho money.
Flo pointed out the success of the gov
ernment's ownership and control of tho
postal affairs of tho country as an ex
ample of what could be achieved by a
public trust. This be alllrmed was tho
greatest of trusts; and If a citizen
could scud a letter to tho Klondike for
two cents, tho actual cost there was
no reason why under tho same system
over Industrial concerns tho working
man could not have the necessities of
life nt cost, and tints got back an
equivalent, or nearly so. of what his
cost produced, instead of 1,1 per cent
as now.
As proof of the government's suc
cessful management of the postal af
fair, ho pointed to the fact that of the
millions handled by this department
last year, but two hundred dollars
were unaccounted for, vvhllo in ono
bank alone the loss yearly might bo
thousands of dollars.
Uncle Sam, ho continued, is a friend
of labor unions; ho recognizes them
and In tho government printing olllco
tlie men are better paid than else
where and tho work produced Is got
ten out at ciKst. There is no deduction
for interest, rent, etc, and a conse
quent loss to tho producer. There
would have been no steel strikes or
other strikes had I'ncle Sam been in
charge nf these industries, nnd the la
bor unions would not he crying for re
cognition as llicy arc at the present
time. '1'lie labor unions, Mr. Caldwell
insisted, were not in an oppressive
movement, but a defensive movement,
the outgrowth of necessity lo pieservo
tlie woiUlngman's rights and to see

Socialism Against Anarchism.
Mr. Caldwell epokc with some
warmth of the popular misapprehen
sion of socialism nnd of Its being con
founded with anarchism. One, he
Urged, Is diametrically opposed to the
other. Socialists believe, In their Idea
of public ownership of all Industries In
the furthcrest extension ot tho govern
ment, sto make It of tho people, by tho
people and for tho people. Anarchists
are opposed to all government; they
bollovo that government Is coercion.
Thoy do not believe In a unity of gov
ernment, nor In a unity of nnylhlnnK
every 0110 Is for himself. An example
of this Is tho case of tho man with
the disordered brain who made tho
whole nation grieve In carrying out
his belief that ho could remove tho
condition about him by striking the
rulor of the land. "This man was cer
tainly a fool," exclaimed tho speaker.
AVhllo tho audience was a small one,
It was enthusiastic nnd tho speaker
showed approbation of his Rcntlments
by hearty applause.
OBITUARY.
UIKIO AVHITK, whoso expected
death was spoken or In the Tribune
yesterday, passed away at 3.30 In tho
morning at his home at AVhlto's cross
ing, tho placo which boars his name,
A general breaking down of his sys
tem manifested Itself several weeks
ago and he declined rapidly until death
came.
Mr. AVhito was a pioneer resident of
Carbondale and was a greatly es
teemed resident of tho community. Ho
was a native of Ireland, where he was
born in the county of Koscommon, 6S
years ago. Ho came to America In
1838, and settled in Honesdale. He re
sponded to the call ot arms In 1861, and
achieved an honorable career In tho
defense of his adopted country. Mr.
AVhlte located In Carbondale when the
war ceased, and later engaged in part
nership with B. J. Murphy, at what Is
known as AVhlto's crossing, a ottle
inent which was owned almost wholly
by Mr. AVhito. Ho was more than or
dinarily successful in his business ven
tures and was noted for his honesty
and fairness In all his dealings, a rep
utation which spread through these
valleys and which ho happily enjoyed
to the day of his death.
Mr. AVhito wedded Miss May Murphy
of Honesdale, who departed this life
many years ago. His survivors are two
sons, Rev. John AA'hlto, of Denver, Col.,
who was ordained In June last, and
Lawrence AVhito, ot this city; one
daughter, Mrs. John AVhito, also of
Carbondale, and one brother, James
AVhito, of Forest City. Mr. AA'hlto was
a member of AA'illlain H. Davics post,
G. A. R.
The funeral arrangements depend on
the arrival of Rev. John AVhlte from
Denver, but will likely take placo Sat
urday morning, with services in St.
Rose church.
JOHN J. FORBKS. one time city su
perintendent of schools of Carbondale
for years, died somewhat suddenly
Tuesday at his home in New York
city, whither ho wont a few years ago.
Heart trouble, from which he suffered
attacks for years, was probably tho
cause of death. His age was 59 years.
Mr. Forbes was for many years be
fore tho public eye in this city and
was always conspicuous as a citizen
of high purpose and honest convictions.
Ho was a teacher In the city schools
and later was elected city superinten
dent, a position which he filled with
signal results during his term of sev
enteen years. He was an able man
and he served In tho Interests of edu
cation with zeal and dellgence and
with tho high aim of making the pub
lic kcIiooI system the best that was
possible to achieve. In every direction
in which his influence could be felt,
he displayed the same .splendid quali
ties. Mr. Forbes was an earnest advo
cate of total abstinence and he was ono
of tlie most active workers in tho
Father 'Muthew movement. Strong so
cial ties bound him to his friends and
lii death will be sincerely mourned.
Mr. Forbes is survived by his "wife
and tho following children: Frank, ot
New York city; Frederick F., editor
of the Scranton Republican: Maurice,
of Now York city; Harry, of Omaha,
Nob.: John, nt tho Asbury Park
Herald: Paul, Floyd, Roy, Basil and
Miss Mary, of New York city. Ono

Cure lor Catarrh, '
Ot catarrh remedies there Is no end,
but of catarrh cures, there has al
ways been 11 great M'atclly. Thcro.are
many remedies to relieve, but very few
that really cure.

very little, if any, better than tho old
fashioned salt water douche.
Tho uso of inhalers and tho applica
tion ot salvos, washes und powders to
the noso und throat to euro catarrh Is
no more reasonable than to rub tho
kidney trouble or hcumatlsm and it
Is Just as much a blood disease as
kidney trouble or rhsumatlsf and It
cannot bo cured by local treatment
any moro than they can be.
To euro catarrh, whether In the
head, throat or stomach an internal
antiseptic treatment is necessary to
drive tho catarrhal poison out of tho
blood nnd system and tho now ca
tarrh cure Is designed on this plan nnd
tho remarkable success of Stuart's Ca
tarrh Tablets Id because being used in
ternally, It drive out catarrhal infec
tion through action upon stomach,
liver and bowels.
Wm. Zimmerman of St. Joseph, re
lates an experience with catarrh,
which is of value to millions of ca
tarrh sufferers everywhere. He says:
"I neglected a slight nasal catarrh un
til It gradually extended to my throat
and bronchial tubes and finally even
my stomach and liver became affected,
but as I was able to keep up and do a
day's work I let it run along until my.
heurlng began to fall me und then I'
realized that I must get rid of catarrh"
or lose my position as T was clerk and
my hearing was absolutely iioccssary.
"Some of my friends recommended
an inhaler, another catarrh salve but
thoy were no good in my care, nor was
anything else until I heard of Stuart's
Catarrh Tablets and bought a pack
ago at my drug store. They benefited
mo from tho start and in less than
four months I was completely- cured
of catarrh although I had suffered
nearly all my life from It.
"They are pleasant to take and so
much moro convenient to use than
other catarrh remedies that I feel I
cannot say enough in favor of Stuart'i
Catarrh Tablets." . ,
A little book on cause and cure: of
catarrh will be mailed free by address
ing F. A. Stuart Co., Marshall, ailch.,
and the tablets are sold by all dmgr
gists in tlie United States nnd Canada
and are ready to receive considerable
patronage. Cory Green, of Fleclville, is'
