— FRIDAY, DECEMBER 96, 1910 ea oes ~ BISMARCK DAILY TRIBUNE x LOWDEN URGES CONSERVATISM IN GOVERNMENT; Governor of Illinois Declares the Pilgrim Vathers Set Precedent PURE DEMOCRACY FAILURE Executive Cites Unsatisfactory Results in Plymouth Rock - Colony New York, for the preservation of a represent tive form of government, Governor Frank Q. Lowden of Illinajs addressed the New England Society Forefathers’ dinner here last night, and pointed out the early failure of pure democracy as experimented with by the Pilgrim fa- thers at Plymouth Rock. In part Governor Lowden said: 1Ht ig doubtful if so small a’ com- munity ever made so large an impr upon government as have the Pilgrim Fathers. Almost three centuries have come and gone since they landed at Plymouth Rock. And yet the lessons they learned and taught in the earliest years of their pilgrimage are as fresh and sound today as they were then, They were tree to form such govern- ment as they wisher. There was no government ubove to prescribe the form which their ttle community should take. ‘They were bound togeth- er by a common religious faith; by the hardships they had endured. At first the land and all things were held in common. It was inteed a tiny so- cialistic community they founded. If ever, anywhere, all things conspired to make a communistic state u success, it was at Plymouth Rock. But in less than four years the Pilgrim Fathers found that this idealistic form of so-- ciety was’ not suited to their work-a- day world, Listen to William Brad- ford, the quaint historian of the’ Pil- grims: “me experience that was had in this common ‘course and condition, tried sundrie years, and that amongst godly and sober men, may well evince the vanitie of that conceite of Platos and-other ancients, applauded by some of later times; that the taking away of propertie, and bringing in commuhitie into a comone wealth, would make them happy and flourishing; as it they were’ iwiser than God.’ “Phere are some professors in our universities. there are some writers in our magazines, aye, there are some ministers in our pulpits to whom I would commend these simple words of William Bradford. He adds: % “or this communitie (so far % it was), was found to breed’ much co fusion and discontent, and retard much imployment that would have been ‘to their benefite and comiorte. For the young-men that were not able and fitte for labour and service did repine that they should spend thetr time and streingth to ‘worke for other mens wives and children, without any rec- ompence. * * * And for mens wives to be commanded to doe service for other men, as dresing their meate, washing their cloaths, etc., they deem- ed it a kind of slaverie, neither could many husbands: well brooke’ it.’ “While many of our people evidently have forgotten this lesson taught by. the\Pilgrims, Lenine and Trotsky must have had it in mind when they provid- ed for' the nationalization of .women. They foresaw that as long as the in- stitution of the home was recognized; and its integrity protected, men would not be content with common ownership of. property. And so’ with ruthless logic they sought to destroy the home. “There is another lesson applicable today which the Pilgrim Fathers learn- ed almost three hundred years ago. Listen again to Bradford: “«The strong, or man of parts, no more in divission of yvictails and cloaths, than he that was weake and not able to doe a quarter the other could; this was thought injuestice.’ “any form of society in which’ the individual shall not be rewarded in proportion to his merits, retards pro- gress, produces discontent and ulti- mately must fail. This presents one of the problems which organized labor hag yet to solve. Some plan must ‘be worked. out by which. the . superfor had * workman shall have a larger reward an than the slacker on the job, Bradford also says: S: « “The aged and graver men to be ranked and @ualized in labours and victails, .cloaths, etc., with the meaner and yonger sorte, thought it some in- dignite and disrespect unto them.’- “It may be inferred/ that these were men who, by reason of their larger ex- perience and apility, were capable. of planning and of managing the joint enterprises. In cataloging the factors in production, brains are too,often left out. One of No alee ma ywell have contributed mdre to the joint pro- duct of the community than ten ordi- nary 'men. Of-course, such individuals were not satisfied, and, therefore, the common enterprise failed. For, with- out rewards commensurate with abil- ity and effort, we lose private initia- tive, and private initiative is the con- dition of true progress. 2 “The New England town meeting BACK ACHE Limber Up With Penetrating Hamiln’s Wizard Oll A harmless and effective prepara- ition to relieve the pains of Rheuma- tism, Sciatica, Lame Back and Lum- bago is Hamlin’s Wigard Oil, It pen- etrates quickly, drives out soreness, and Wmbers up stiff aching joints and muscles. é ‘ You have no idea how useful it will be found in cases of every. day ailment or mishap, when there is need of an immediate healing, anti. septic application, as in cases of sprains, bruises, cuts, Burns, bites and.stings. « zh Get it from druggists for 30 cents.
