The HouseFly And B. B.
One of the characteristics of the
present-day campaign for the preven
tion of diseasq is the homely, practical
way in which facts are being placed
before the public. Many of our state
boards-through bulletins-are doing
excellent work in this direction. As
a result, some popular ideas are being
sadly shaken. The little house-fly,
for instance, has been for years the
subject of household poetry, and has
been referred to as the harmless and
innocent companion of man. The
bedbug, on the contrary, has been
looked on with speechless aversion. He
has no social standing. Even the
mention of his name has not been con
sidered good form in our best circles,
while the least suspicion of a speaking
acquaintance with him has been re
garded with horror. In the May num
ber of the Bulletin of the North Caro
lina State Board of health, Dr. Cyrus
Thompson, in an article on "Flies and
Filth,'" says: "Now as a matter of
unprejudiced fact, barring the sting
of the bite and the odor of the en
counter; the bedbug is a much more
eligible companion than the house-fly,
whether of bed or of board. But if
bedbugs, comparatively cleanly of
habit, crawled all over our plates,
table and food just as the house-flies
crawl, fresh from the foulest filth of
pestilential kind, who could eat or
even sit at the table for a moment?
I am not making a plea for the eleva
tion of the social status of my noc
turnal friend, who loves darkness
rather than light; but I am declaring
that his deeds are not nearly so evil
and destructive as those of the house
fly." Put this statement before every

of the typhoid fly iv sealed, up The

Cubs Lose To Miles
In a rather loosely played game at
Miles City last Sunday, the Colonial
Cubs lost to Miles City by the close
score of 5 to 4.
Parker and Bartlett were the bat
tery for the Cubs and did good work.
Only one earned run was made off
Parker's delivery, the other four
scores resulting from errors. Miles
has a bunch of good classy players,
and it is hoped to arrange one or more
additional games before the end of the
season.
Americanism And The Red Flag
Indicating a desire to learn more of
the socialist movement, and pledging
that he will investigate the subject
impartially and without bias, the edi
tor of a country newspaper in Eastern
Montana writes to us very frankly un
der date of April 30th. The editor in
question concludes his letter as fol
lows:
"I can never adopt the socialist
idea as long as they adopt the red flag
as the symbol of their creed, nor do I
believe any loyal American citizen
can. The red flag is the emblem of
anarchy, and as long as the socialist
party flaunts that as their color they
are doomed to defeat."
If the country editor who writes the
above will investigate the meaning of
the red flag as impartially as he prom
ises to investigate the principles of
socialism, the chief obstacle to his
conversion to socialism will be re
moved, and speedily.
The color red in the emblem of so.
cialism represents not violence, war,
murder nor a archy, but exactly the
opposite. It is typical of the red blood
of all humanity that fows through the
arteries of the men and women of all
countries, and represents the only
world moen that has for its pur
pose the international otherhood of
ma.
Socialism the world over stands as
th.most powerful oppoeat co war
ad national and iat moruinal disoder
of ever .st. Anothe isv years of
socialist growth, and wars will be
ended forever. Less than a year ago
war between England and Germany
was averted because the socialists of
Germany and England served notice on
the trouble makers that five million
workers of those countries would op
pose war to the extent of a general and
prolonged strike if necessary.
Our editorial friend has accepted
his ideas of socislism, and of the red
flag not from a study of the socialist
movement and the sociaeist philosophy,
but from the ignorant and prejudiced
mouthings of a venomous capitalistic
press whose owners are vitally inter
ested in misrepresenting and lying
about the socialist movement.
Country editors are generally dis
posed to be fair and reasonable in all
matters. As a rule they are free from
capitalistic influences, and do their
thinking for themselves. For that
reason the country press is turning to
socialism to a greater extent than
ever before.
Our editorial friend from the Mus
selshell country will be fighting the
battles of socialism as soon as he
learns the meaning of the socialist
philosophy. -Butte Socialist.
