WHAT SOCIALISTS STAND FOIL Pti-Miiial lniriinH of Disputed (rounil in Itulkans. Sidney lxw In London Dally Mall. I had come down by train from Xiah. In S.'rvla, bound for that town of Uskub, where now two Turkish divisions are assembled breathing fire and slaughter against the sub jects of Klug Peter. But ray train wag full of Serb peasants going down to work In the Turkinsh prov ince. That was a thing that at once threw a ray of light upon the "Mac edonian problem." I saw that the political boundary is not geographi cal or ethnumologlcal. The Serb under the Crescent is brother or cousin of the Serb under the Cross. The Turk, the Bulgar, the Wal lach, who Is his local neighbor, is a stranger; his friends and kinsmen are his coreligionists who may live far away, perhaps among the fat I-lgs and fat piunia of the kingdom, perhaps In the wild glens of the Sanjax of Nov! Baiar. perhaps eye ing Austrian officials askance as he moves about the well-made military roads of Bosnia. They are one peo ple, these Serbs, under whatever king or emperor the may chance to dwell. Through the long, hot morning we creep down into the Macedonia land. Our course lies through a green champaign, bounded on either side by n range of great hills, beyond which the dark serrated summits of the higher mountains tower into a sky clear and blue as that of Italy. There Is a little snow still in the gullies, but the mountains are soft with verdure and the trees toss tbrir blossoms In the copses. The valley Is alive with busy one would say happy life. Men and women are working In the fields, teams of oxen are drawing long, narrow drays over the rough paths; one sees strings of pack ponies, with here and there a horseman perched with short stirrups on a high Kastern saddle. The men are mostly in the wide drawers and Jackets, their legs bound up with complex putties of string or straw, the women In red petticoats and white hoods. Of many types are the peasants. There are the Albanians, lean and hawk-eyed and fierce, a turbulent, truculent folk. Even on this spring morning we have newt that a num ber of them have raided a Christian village, and a deputation of the in jured Inhabitants is on Its way to the town to ask protection from bis excellency, the Vali who la not supposed to be too anxious to re dress Christian wrong. But the Al banians before me are, for the time at any rate, peaceable artisans and tradesmen Intent on business. They beset me as I move about the bazaar and produce ancient pistols and swords from evil-looking rags, In the faint hope that the unwary Frank may buy. I do not buy, and they go away quite cheerful and polite. Everybody Is polite In Macedonia, even the Turkish oppressor, who In deed Is the politest of all. And nearly everybody seems cheerful 1 do not know why, but that Is the impression I gain as I lounge about the narrow, Irregular Eastern-look lng lanes. Perhaps the least cheer ful person Is the Hulgar, who Is apt to be rather squat and square, with a brown face and sometimes a Tartar cast of the eye. He is si lent, tenacious, a little dour, but a good workman as well as a good fighter. It Is easier to get on with the Servian, for your Serb Is converse tional, even garrulous. Give him a glass of water and a cigarette and he will talk for an hour. He Is a good-looking fellow, too, tall and lithe, and sometimes with blue eyes and a northern whiteness of skin. As a .rule, he Is well-dressed and seems quite comfortable, well fed in excellent humor with himself nd the world, even with a world which includes Turkish palmakans and Anatolian soldiers. Hm Business Man Who Considers Holf Rather Than the Country. Concluding his campaign tour of Montana, Gov. Marshall said: "My quarrel In this campaign Is not with the business man, big or little, simply because he happens to be a business man. But there Is no menace to the country's wel (are so disastrous as the business man who will sacrifice every In terest of the republic In order to advance his prtvate business affairs, I know of no character, commerci al or otherwise, so petty as that of such a man. For a few thousands or hundreds of thousands of dol lars he will sacrifice deliberately the best Interest of his own off spring In the unreasonable and ul timately useless pursuit of dollars. ' "This Is the type of man whose pernicious activity in governmental ii f fairs Is speeding the republic to a crisis that means revolution. Whether the revolution will be peaceable or otherwise I am not prepared to say. But the business man who lives for business and nothing else must go. This nation does not want him." A Great Building Palls when Its foundation Is undermined, and If the foundation of health good digestion is attacked, quick colUpse follows. On the first signs of Indigestion, 'Dr. King's New Life Pills should be taken to tone the stomach and regulate liver, kid neys and bowels. Pleasant, easy, safe and only 25 cents at English Drug Co. Hell Is full of good meanings and wishing. Herbert. SM'akrr Here Saturday Mailt St I Pi.rth the Aim anil lrlmiile ut I lie Party IH-irrs to Abolish In trrtstM, IhntM, Profit ami all Other Iteturnn of Capitnl. Probably the first Socialist speech i-.cr made here was delivered in the court h on ce Saturday night by Mr. Kendall, an organizer of the party assigned to work in this State tor the past several weeks. He spoke at Marshvitle In the after noon. A very good audience greet ed the speaker here. The Socialist speakers are different from the speakers of other parties In that they organize local camps or lodges wherever they secure enough mem bers for the purpose. And every one who joins the party does so not merely as a voter, but as a worker and contributing member pledged to do all he can to promote the cause. The Socialists are peaceable folk and believe in securing their reforms by argument. They say that since mil itary war is foolish, commercial or economic war is also foolish, and they would substitute co-operation in the place of competition. Their numbers are growing rapidly in this country and they are counting on polling a million votes in the elec tion today. The speaker was intro duced by Prof. Hendley of the Grad ed School, and spoke for something like two hours. He did not attempt to organize the party here, but of fered party literature for sale. His speech may be summed up about us follows: Socialists are revolutionists, they admit; but they would remind us that Patrick Henry, Benjamin Franklin, George Washington and scores of other American heroes were revolutionists. And the revo lution demanded by the Socialists does not necessarily mean civil war. The weapons of the modern revolu tionists are the school house, the printing-press and the ballot box. Moreover, the Socialist would re mind us that he is not the greatest revolutionist of the times. Machinery and big business organization have revolutionized the world's Industries. The great revolutionists are the In ventors, the scientific discoverers, and the great captains of Industry. The Socialists are simply demand lng that we adjust ourselves to the new conditions that these greater revolutionists have caused. Many examples were given to show how the working classes are suffering from these changed condl- tloos. Machinery has multiplied the producing power of men many times; yet tUe worker does not have much more of the wealth than his ancestors who used band tools. The farmers' products are bought from him at low prices and sold to the consumer at greatly increased prices. The actual labor cost of a $10 chill' ed plow has been shown to be less than a dollar; the actual labor coBt of a $75 buggy Is about $8; of a $60 sewing machine, about $5 or $6. The remedy proposed by the So cialist Is that all Industries, that have been socialized, by machinery, shall be owned and controlled by the workers. For example, In order to make cloth in modern times It is necessary for large numbers of peo- pie to work together In lurge facto ries. But the man who owns the factory absolutely controls the dis tribution of the wealth that the factory produces. Let the workers own and control the factory. Let the foremen and managers be selected by the workers. Let the products be distributed to each worker ac cording to the muscular or mental labor he does. This change Is to be made In the same manner that public schools, public roads, streets, public light lng, public water works, street rail ways, the postofflce, the Panama ca nal, the State test farms and num erous other public Industries have been built up. The logical develop ment of the parcels post will do away with the express companies. The development of the postal sav ings department will make private banking unprofitable. The good banker then will work for the pub lic Instead of for Mr. Morgan. The Socialist also demands the control of public industries by the persons who do the work. For ex ample, the postofflce department would be managed by representalves of the postofflce employees, subject only to the general regulations made by the general public. The gist of the matter Is that the Socialists propose to do away with interest, rent, and dividends. Labor produces all capital, and capital must be absolutely subservient to labor. This Is, Indeed, revolution ary, and explains why those who have an Income from capital feel un easy at any mention of Socialism. To the charge of being unjust, the Socialist replies that standards of Justice vary as conditions vary. Slav ery was once considered just, and was Just under the conditions then existing. PREMIUMS FOU THE K.UK. Dr. Gilbert T. Rowe of Charlotte will speak at Central Methodist church Thursday at 9:30 a. m.. In stead of Wednesday evening as here tofore announced.

Iceman, became the bride of Dr. R. Bennett Gaddy of Charlotte. The church was most artistically decorated under the direction and Sine taste of Mr. D. C. Morgau. Down each of the two main isles were bowers formed of pink chrys anthemums. The arch way was lighted with electric jets hidden in the clustering floers. The wood work of the pulpit and choir loft were covered with pink and blue drapery, while over this chrysanthe mums and ivy vine twined in profu sion. Palms and feras added much to the already elaborate decorations. Prior to the entrance of the brid al party, Mr. Henry Falrley sang a bridal song in his most finished manner. He was accompanied on the pipe organ by Miss l.ura Heath and on the violin by Mr. Walter Strauss. The ushers entered from opposite Isles, while Mendlessohn's wedding march was being played. They were Dr. Wakefield of Char lotte and Messrs. J. C. Sikes. John Scott, Frank Marshall, Cecil Meach um and Clayton Laney, followed by the maids and groomsmen. The maids were exquisitely gowned in pink and blue chiffon over pink and blue charmeuse carrying shower muffs and wearing picture hats to match costume.

The dame of honor, Mrs. V. D. Sikes, sister of the groom, was quite handsome 'In lavender charmeuse trimmed In hand painted chiffon and pearls and carrying white car nations. Cbas. Iceman, Jr., enter ed from the side entrance bearing the wedding ring on a silver tray. The ring used was the wedding ring of the groom's father and mother, the late Mr. and Mrs. Gad dy of Anson county. The bride now entered with her uncle, Mr. Robt. Iceman, who gave her to the groom who met her at the altar with bis best man, Dr. E. H. Green. Dr. J. H. Weaver pronu,nced the impressive words of the ring service of the Methodist church.
