Under Rule of the Socialists; Had Expensive Experiment The Same Thing Here Proved Costly for the City. By FRANCES DE SAXES RYAN. Mr. Kopelln's efforts to prove the lat tice or Socialism in last Sunday's Wash Ington Herald consisted In the main ot an expose of capitalistic evils. This poller is followed by all defenders of Socialism. Ask for a demonstration of the 'Justice or practicability of Socialism and you will hear an attack on cap! tallsm. In each of my articles In this series I have emphasized the fact that we vigor ously condemn existing evils and stand ready to support any social-reform move ment that Is bated on sound moral prin ciples and that can convincingly demon strate its practicability. Its freedom from tyranny, and Its Justice to all classes. Socialism possesses none of these qualifications, and Is not only farci cally Impracticable, but Is outrageously unjust and tyrannical. Socialism, there fore, must be condemned. W freely admit that the social body is sick and In need of treatment, but we know that the proposed remedies of the Socialist doctors would be worse than the disease. Mr. Kopelln based his entire defense of Socialism last Sunday on the state ment that "as a result of the private ownership of the means of production and distribution the masses are com pelled to work for less than half of what they produce:" and "when a worker (under Socialism) Is able to get the full v alue of w hat he produces a system that does Is Just." This Is a fair sample of the Irresistible logic of Socialists. Mr. Kopelln's party wishes to give man "the full product of his labor." and this In the name of Jus tice. How can It do so? Supposing a man makes a number of watch springs In a dav. Is he entitled to the watch springs or their equivalent In money value? Certainly not. Whose product. Mr. Kopelln. is the watch spring? Thousands shared In pro ducing it. Miners excavated the ore In the regions of Lake Superior. Labor was emploved in transporting It There was wear and tear of machinery. Finally the ore was smelted by worklngmen. It was refined by worklngmcn. It was tempered Into steel by worklngmen It was made into natch springs by worklngmen. It is obvious that the last link In this chain of workers cannot claim the watch spring as his full product because the latmr of many preceded his own efforts He H entitled only to that particular (hare of the product which he has con tributed. His share, consequently. Is ex pressed In wages. 0 crest Imnte Workers Shore. Socialists make a practice of thus over estimating the workers' share In pro duction by dividing the gross production of all wealth In the manufacturing estab lishments by the wage hands employed. The cost of materials, coal to operate the plants, the thousands of workers who are clerks, foremen. &c. are all lsnored. and the effort Is made to make the working class believe that they pro duced the raw material, dug and trans ported the Coal, &c Isn't It a gross form of Justice to thus deceive the work ing class? What can honest. Intelligent men think of such tactics? Mr. Kopelln cites the safeguarding of machinery and occupations, the use of the Initiative and referendum, and a sys tem of "rule by the people" as Socialistic proposals This Is news If Mr. Kopelln will look up some of the legislation passed In Congress during the past ten j ears he will find that remarkable prog ress has been made in the safeguarding of machinery and the protection of em ployes In dangerous occupations, and In the enactment of this splendid legislation Socialists plajed no part whatever. As to the Initiative, referendum, and recall, they are advooated by many of the leaders of the old political parties, and the ideas are in no sense associated with the doctrine of Socialism. The talk ef "rule by the people" is political cant. Our present voting svstem In America furnishes "the people" with the power nf ruling at all times. Under Socialism there would be tyrannical boss rule, for bociallsm stands for bossism. "The people" (under Soclallm), sas Mr. Kopelln, "will safeguard the rights of alL Bossism or autocracy cannot thrive where pure democracy obtains Greed and graft cannot thrive where NOTES OF THE SCHOOLS Dr. William M. Davidson, superintend ent of sCiooIs, called the heads of school instruction in conference at his office last Friday afternoon. He em phasized the duties of a principal and pointed out the aim and purpose of In struction on the part of the teacher. "It is the duty of a principal," said Dr. Davidson, "to see that his school approaches the ideal in Instruction to the end that In the relation of Instruc tion to both teacher and pupil aimless, pointless, and Indefinite teaching shall jleld to orderly and systematic work." A party of foreigners, members of the International Congress of Geography, In session here during the past week, at tended by A. T. Stuart and Miss Eliza beth V. Brown, supervisors of instruc tion In the public schools, spent Thurs day at the Force School In Massachu setts Avenue Investigating methods of teaching geography at the Capital City. Gen. Shokalsky, In charge of the study rf oceanography In the Naval Academy of Russia, and Jules DoubianskL cura tor of the Imperial Botanic Gardens of St. Petersburg, were particularly Inter ested In map outlines and school gar dens. The j oung ladies of Normal School, No. I. are proving the desirability of teaching girls marual training, under the instruc tion of E, L. Santmeyer, lockers, wood boxes, tables, chairs, and desks have been made for "Nature Lodge." the school recreation camp up the Potomac near Sycamore Island. It Is the Inten tion of the girls to make, with their cwn hands, all of the furnishings of the lodge. Prof. Spanhofd. head of the depart ment of modem languages In -high schools, met the teachers of languages at Central High School. Wednesday after noon, and plans for uniform work were antlined for all high schools. Children of the practice room connect ed with Normal School.

In the language of the day. "listens well." but let us see how It actually works out. Let us take the case ot Milwaukee, where the Socialist have been thrown out after an absolute control of the city for twq years. .The experiment was tried under conditions as favorable for the test as could possi bly be asked. Mayor Seldel was a man of the highest reputation In private life, anu he took office with the determina tion to purify the city administration and deal honestly with all men. But conditions were too much for him. Mllwaalcee Experiment. He found, to his disgust, that his Socialist fellow office holders and his supporters were as greedy for the spoils ot office as the worst machine poli ticians and ward-heelers of the old parties had ever been. He could not keep down expenses and his special board of civic economy was the most costly and useless that Milwaukee ever saw or paid. He could get no support from those who had put him In the mayor's chair unless be paid them with offices or Jobs at the city's expense. Socialistic Ideas did not work out In practice, and the taxpayers were simply robbed. Although the Socialists were In office but three and one-half months during the present year, ct in that time they spent SLS30.606 56, leaving a balance to run the city for the remaining eight and one-halt months of but 33.40,- 037.35. In some-ot the funds City Comp troller Louis M. Koteckl. who has been Investigating the city's finances, has found deficits showing that the Socialist administration In three months expended all the money It had appropriated to tske care of certain works during the entire year. The evidences of graft and misman agement on the part of the Socialist purchasing department staggers the Im agination It left the present adminis tration, for example, 10.000 barrels of tar. representing about 132,000 of the tax pa) ers' money. It Is said there Is enough tar on hand to last the city six years, but In this time It will have greatly de teriorated. It is packed In thin metal cases which quickly oxidize. In one case the tar' ran all over a city lot Other "souvenirs" of graft, mismanage ment, and plunder left behind by the purchasing department were: One hundred and eighty thousand pa per napkins, parlor matches sufficient to last ten years, a twenty-year supply of carpenters' chalk, mop handles enough to last fifty vears, eight boxes of axes, thirty cases of metal polish for use In the city hall, twenty-four cases of can dles, twelve dozen garden hose, ten dozen street-cleaning shovels, many dozens of small coal shovels, coal scuttles, three barrels of file handles, twenty-two gal lons of white lead, which. Is never used by the city: Tour large rolls of packing rubber, that will rot before It can be used: half a car load of nails, dozens of pencil sharpeners, many large boxes of, talcum powder, shoeblacklng brushes by the score, and many barrels of useless lard oil Against the catchy but meaningless rhetorical periods of Debs, as quoted by Mr. Kopelln. I submit these actual re sults of Socialistic rule, or misrule. In Milwaukee. The story of the Socialist administration In Milwaukee Is one of the most sensational stories of greed, graft, and theft of modern times. It Is well that the Socialists had full control of the city's affairs for only two years. Had it been for a longer period they would have made the Tammany "opera tors" look like Sunday school directors by comparison. If the Socialists gained control of this country the Socialist bosses would run the government machine Just as they now run their political party machine and Just as they ran things in Milwau kee, onlv there would be more tactions. more fights, more poverty, more misery, and more unhaPDlness. Socialism Is a doctrine or oos"im. roD berv. and Injustice, and the voters of America should feel It .1 duty to their flic and country to deliver the repre sentatlves of the creed a crushing defeat at the coming election.

Tbe.ftrst wic u wmtai ecoarta far the Louis Kopelin, in Discon tinuing His Articles, Charges Abuse. To the Editor: When the agreement to discuss me suoject ot socialism in the columns of your paper was made between Mr. Francis De Sales Ryan and myself it was distinctly understood that no personalities or offensive language would be used There were several slight fractares of this rule on the part of Mr. Ryan In his first two articles, but In his third article, the one published In your last Sunday's Issue, he said, "The Socialist Is a veritable quack." In other words my comrades and myself are called lm posters and charlatans. Now this Is not argument. It Is abuse. It was Mr. Ryan's duty to oppose Socialism with logic and rea son. If he had riddled our philosophy, the readers of The Herald would have drawn their own conclusions. But as Mr. Ryan In addition to calling us "rentable quacks" hss used offensive and Insinuating language throughout the discussion I cannot waste my time an swering such uncalled-for remarks. Nothing pleases a Socialist more than an opportunity to discuss Socialism. But we never argue long with one who Ig nores the Issue. As to my own conduct In arguing the question of Socialism It can be Judged best by the readers of your paper In reading my three articles. I have too much self-respect to answer a charge of being a "veritable quack." So I will not continue this debate much as I would like to use the opportunity to get our principles before the general Public. LOUIS KOPEUN. October IS.

One hundred dollars has been donated for this purpose. A hotly contested debate took place at a meeting of the Daniel Webster Club of the Business High School on Friday, October 18. The question was: "Re solved. That there should be an addition of one hour to the regular high school hours." The negative which was upheld by Miss Smith. Leopold Frudberg. MIm X. Grossberg. snd Miss Mlmmel. won the decision, while the affirmative eon- sited of Mr. Vanderllp. Mr. Shlpply. and Mr. Lucas. First honors were given to Miss Smith. Miss K. Grossberg, and L. Frudberg. An excellent extemporaneous speech was delivered by S. Shlpply on the prospecrs of football of the Business High School. Miss Clark read a very Interesting Issue of the Mercury. The most striking article was the criticism of the present campaign. It was decided by the club to hold Its meetings on Wednesdajs during the high school football season. TEXAS EEFUSES TO TREAT TUBERCULOSIS SUFFERERS WHO FLOCK TO STATE Texas, Is not anxious to entertain suf ferers from tuberculosis, and is adver tising the fact. The Governor of Texas has so advised the Commissioners by bulletin and letter, and has asked them to tell the people. He wants everybody outside of Texas to know that free hospitals In the Southwest are there for citizens of the Southwest: and that because one is a penniless stranger and comes to Texas to recover from tuberculosis Is no reason why special charitable associations stiouia be organized In bis behalf, and nnaiiy that the patience of all Texans has been exhausted by appeals from indigent pilgrims afflicted with the dis ease.

Bj-yce's Impressions : Of South America ' Ambassador From England to United Statm Writes of Present and Possible Future Of Latin-American Countries, A position of commercial and political importance among the nations of the world and a population not far short of UO.OSO.OOO before the close of the cen turythese are the possibilities along the lines of orocress that South Ameri ca Is pursuing to-day. according to that keen observer In international auaurs. Ambassador James Bryce. Mr. Bryce recently returned to this country from a Journey through Western and Southern South America, from Panama to Argentina and Brazil via the straits of Magdellan. From his boy hood, he tells us. fired by the accounts of primitive American people as given In Prescott's "Conquest of Peru," and ot travel In the Andes ss portrayed by Humboldt he has longed to visit these countries. To this early Incentive for visiting South America he writes, "there was subsequently added a curiosity u learn the causes which produced so many revolutions and civil wars in Spanish America, and. still later, a sense that these countries, some of them Issuing from a long period of turbulence, were becoming potent economic factors In the modern world." Having accomplished his Journey, dur tar which he visited seven of the South American republics Panama. Peru, Bo livia. Chile. Argentina, Uruguay ana Brazil he has written on exhaustive sc- count of what he has seen. ("South America: Observations and Impressions." published by the Macrollan Company.) which seems destined to rank as an authoritative work on the subject treat ed. From an advance copy of this book The Washington Herald is able to pre sent some of Mr. Bryce's interesting "forecasts" of the possible future or tne South American republics. Tljese lore casts, he tells us. "are not meant as pre dictions, but rather as suggestions of possibilities which may serve to set oth ers thinking." Chances for Settlers. Of first Importance among these forecasts Is the view that South America may solve the problem ot the rapidly increasing population of the world. "If we omit" he tells us. "the trop ical countries Inhabited by savages peo ples. (Central Africa and the Islands of Southeastern Asia). It will appear that should the present Increase of the civilized peoples be maintained, the rest of the world will not suffice for their agricultural expansion for more than a short period, that is to say. a period shorter than the four centuries which have elapsed since the outward movement of the European peoples De gan with the discovery of the New World. "What then, of South America It Is the only continent containing both a large temperate and a large tropical area capable of cultivation which still remains, greatly underpeopled. It Is, therefore, the chief resource to which tho overpeopled countries may look as providing a field for their emigration, and to which the world at large may look as capable of re-lnforclng Its food supply. That It has not been sooner oc cupied Is due largely to the political dis orders which have given It a bad name, partly to Its being less accessible than North America. Both these adverse con ditions no longer apply to Its temperate regions. , "Considered as a field for emigration. boutn America may oe aivraea inio three sections There are. first the trop ical and f oret-eov ered regions of Co lombia. Venezuela, Guiana and Eastern Brazil; secondly, the temperate and grassy or wooded regions of Argentina Uruguay, and Southern Brazil outside the tropics: and lastly, the great central plain of the Amazon and Its tributaries which the Brazilians call the selvan (woods). I exclude 'altogether the moun tainous parts of Ecuador. Peru and Bo livia, because they are already as well Inhabited as they deserve to be. A very small part of them 1 fit for stock or for agriculture, and the climatic conditions (except In a few valleys), are repellent to persons not accustomed to great alti tudes. Not even Italians can be expect ed to cultivate fields 12.000 feet above the sea level. "The other three sections Ju"t men tioned are much underpeopled. The first Is better fitted for negro or Indian labor than for that of white", jet there are many parts of It where men of South European stock can work In the open air and thrive In an area of about two millions ot square miles. It has about seven and a half million inhabi tant", of whom a small minority are pure whites, tne rest Indians or negroes mixed. Four or five times that number could easily find accommodation. White Maun Reslons. "The second section is the one pre eminently fitted to receive white men. Its area may be roughly conjectured at 1,500,000 square miles, but so much of the Argentine part of It Is desert that it would not be safe to reckon more than two-thirds of It as available for settle ment. As there are now only 12.000,000 of people In this 1,000.000 square miles, there Is evidently plenty of room for more. "This Is the part of South America which has drawn most Immigrants dur ing the last sixty vears. Southern Brazil leading the way. Argentina and Uruguay following. It Is also the region which will chiefly continue to attract Europeans for many je-.rs to come. "In Argentina and most of Uruguay, as In the prairie States of North Amer ica and the Canadian Northwest, there are no trees to be felled, so the land. extremely fertile, can be brought under crops Immediately. The estates are at present large, but if there were settlers with enough capital to buv small lots, these could soon be had. and already some Italians are establishing themselves as peasant cultivators. "After making all allowances, both Argentina and the other tracts I have referred to are capable, supposing Immi gration to continue at the present rate, of providing work and homes for Immi grants for at least sixty or seventy years to come. The estimate that before the end of the century 'Argentina may have 50.000.000. Uruguay 10,000.000. and Southern Brazil 20.000,000 of people (assuming the birth rate to be maintained) need not seem extravagant to any one who knows how rapidly settlement has advanced In North America, and who realizes that before long the stream of agricultural Immigration will cease to flow Into the G.

"The traveler In Sooth America who confines himself, as many do, to the larger cities finds them so Ilk thos of Europe and North America In their pos session of the appliances of modern civi lization.

In the volume of business thay transaet I might add In the aspect of the Legislatures and In th administra tive 'machinery of their government that he is apt to fancy a like resemblance In the countries ss a whole. But the small towns and rural districts are very far behind, though least so In Chile and Argentina. "It one regards these various nations as a whole, one Is struck by the want of such an 'atmosphere of Ideas, If the phrase Is permissible, as that men breathe In Western Europe and In North America. Educated men are few. hooka are few. there Is little stir of thought little play of cultivated Intelligence upon the problems of modern society. Most of these countries seem to lie far away from the stream of Intellectual life.' hearing only Its distant murmur. The, presence of a great Inert mass of Igno rance In the native population partly accounts for this; and one must remem-. ber the difficulty of providing schools' and the thinness of a population scat tered through mountainous or desert or forest-covered regions. These auadvantagea may In years to! come be lessened, but In the meantime those who are born with superior talents' are born into an ungenlal environment, Ill-fitted to develop and polish such tal-j ents to their own and to the pubiio bene fit The traveler finds, now and then tal . -a a ..-. -- 4l . .Am' 1 would be remarkable In any country. Oaa whom I knew In Mexico years ago was as brilliant and as accomplished In many lines of knowledge as any person I have ever known. But It takes a large num ber of such men to Influence a nation and guide the course of Its opinion. . "There are plenty of men of ability, but their talent like the system of In struction of the country. Is directed al most exclusively to practical ends, and does less than It ought either for politi cal progress or for the expansion of the national mind. Their Interest In science is almost entirely an Interest In Its ap plications, and their hero Is the great In ventor. Science and learning; pursued for their own sake, have not yet won the place they ought to bold. Those In whom a taste for philosophical specula tion or abstract thought or any kind ap pears, seldom devote themselves to pa tient Investigation. They are apt to be captured by phrases and formulas, per haps of little . meaning, which seem to give short cuts to knowledge and truth. One Is told that the European books most popular among the few who approach abstract subjects are those of Herbert Spencer, whose Influence was always greater In the South European countries and in Russia than In England or the United States. Those few are unwilling to believe that he Is not deemed In his own country to be a great philosopher. ' Old Spirit Still Strong. "The fiery vigor of that extraordinary group of men the Conqulstadores has often blazed out In their descendants. It Is the appearances In almost every state of men of tireless energy and strenuous will that gives their chief Interests to the wars and revolutions of the last hun dred years. Few of these men. besides the heroes of Independence, such as Ban Martin. Belgrano. Miranda, Bolivar, and' Sucre, are known to Europe, and of those ' who are known, some like Francla and Artlgas and Rosas and Lopez, have won fame by ruthlessness more than by genius. Of late years the leading figures have been more frequently statesmen and less frequently soldiers. Both types are honorably represented to-day In many of the republics. There Is plenty of strength In the race, and Juarez, of Mexico. Is only one of many examples to show that Indian blood does not necessarily reduce Its VJallty. Into what channels its force will be hereafter directed, and whether It will develop a gift for thought and for artistic creation commensurate with the activity which It has shown In other fields.

Police of the Seventh Precinct are searching for a negro who robbed thirteen-) ear-old Maud Corcoran, who Uvea at 3132 South Street Northwest of a 31 bill, about 9 o'clock last night, at Thirty-first and M Streets Northwest Scores of persons were in sight of the transfer station, and a policeman was Just a block away when the negro snatched the bill from the hand of the child and fled. The girl made no out cry, and there was no pursuit of the thief. Maud Corcoran told the police that she left a store carrying the bill In her hand. She dropped It. and when she turned to stoop and pick It up the ne gro said: "Here: give me that bill. It's mine." The girl ran In a store and waited for fifteen minutes. Then she started home. At the In tersection of the streets the negro stepped from the dorway of a store and grabbed the child by the hand, taking away the money and running. ASKS AIR INSURANCE. From the New Tort Tribune.
