the preeent order of society thrills
the souls of tho&e who hear him
with the hope that the end of op-
pression and s 1 a ve r y is near at

of local eomrades
Owing to the river being up aud
the unusually busy time among
the Farmers not many were able
to attend Saturdaydut those who

siDging and speakingand hd an
enjoyable time
Sunday morning the farmers
with their families began to drive
in and toy ten oclock quite a crowd
had gathered Comrade Ottiopen-
td the service with music and rev
olutionary songs which were well
received he being called upon se-
veral times Ye Sunlight editor
gave a talk upon the land question
howing that it was not Socialism
that is breaking up tha homes but
the capitalist system of mortgages
and the concentration of the land
in the hands of a tew people
The noon hour having arrived
' a temporary table was er" ted and
the Ladies got busy the good thi-
ngs tliey brought forth to eat was
ample proof that they had been
reared to be useful members of so-
ciety us well as ornamental-
A Bpixit of comrade-ship paeva-
ced the entire assemblage ae we
gatbeted around the splendid spr
ead prepared by h u m a n beings
that irost democrats and republic-
ans accuse of not having sense en-
ough to vote for better conditions
for the children whioh they had
seusts enough to wiae
After dinner comrade Wilson
addressed the crowd for an hour
and a half holding his hearers in

Returning to Cherokee Sunday
evening a meering was heid in
the court house though it had bean

hud all the room could accomada-

the significance to hu m a n it y ol

ent dsy chnrchianity by poc r i s y
brought vividly to miud the story
' of the carpenter driving the non

in unmistakable terms pointed to
' the present system as the result of
two thousand years of false teach
ing by professed Christians
There ia uo doubt but that hit

The fact that the voices cpn be
