DON'T ROCK THE
BOAT; SIT TIGHT
Ex-Mayor Sweeney Gives
Advice On Reconstruc
tion To the Kotarians.
Jos. C Sweeney, exmayor of EI
Paso, recently returned from a trip to
V. ashmeton, told El Paso Ro tartans
Thursday at their weekly luncheon
m Hotel Sheldon that the greatest
danger following the war Is that of
rocking the boat" too much Bolshe
rickism, as he said.
Judgre Sweeney was the principal
speaker at this, the first raeetlngi
since before the Influenza quarantine.!

trfmely large.
Judge Sweeney eald:

' The ertemal war is won and end

smoke of battle, now looms more
threateningly even than before.
"The defeat of Prussianized Ger

against a tyrannical reaction, what

Tikv anarchy?
"The great question of the future,
with which all others are connected,
is the economical production and the
just distribution of wealth? This Is
universally recognized to be the one
ermastering question, but we must
fuliv

nents that enter Into it None will

ealth, and that the laborer is worthy

it an ever present part of our con
- eptions, that organized society Is
equally essential and that without
such society all production must nec
essarily cease?
Society, the Plamt.
"In the broadest, and yet most ac
curate sense, organized society Is the
plant" which the workman uses as
be Instrument of his production: he
an no more dispense with it than he
can with the vast aggregations of
instruments and machinery that are
assembled in the various factories of
the V nited Steel company.
TVIthout this plant' of organized

cured, distributed nor enjoyed and

innovation or utonlan theorv. trans

erations, is xne enemy oi uie work

machinery of all the factories In civi

"We have the assurance of the gos
pel that in the days Just preceding
the mi lien i urn. false prophets trill ap
pear everywhere upon the earth
preaching new doctrines and each as
serting that in his alone is to be
found salvation and so we must ex
pect that the frantic apostles of In
novation, who have destroyed Russia
and who are now threatening what is
left of Germany, will find many imi

by the aid of that providence, whose
handiwork Is seen throughout the
ages, and never more distinctly than

ote ourselves to our duties that in
this case are also our interests, man
kind will again be victorious, but per
