Eastman, the lec- turer at the Chautauqua last evening. — Showing the progress of the Demo- cratic ideal of government and _ its gradual unfolding as time after time ‘these races have blended producing Phoenicia, Greece, Rome, Spain, Eng- Jand all at their greatest, Mr. East- ynan dwelt at length upon the fallacies of the Soviet ideals which threaten democracy and represengiitive govern- ment. He announced himself as opposed to direct popular government and to the initiative and referendum, because ac- tion taken by a great body of people is taken in the heat of passion and Is/ likely to be the opposite of the ac-, tion the same people would take after careful thinking. The representatives of the people must and do think and discuss all legislation before arriving at a final conclusion, To illustrate he referred to the de mand of the people that the senate ratify the League of Nations covenant, and the gradual change in public opin- ion since that demand swept the coun- try in response to the president's ap- peal. A democracy, Mr. Eastman declares, is the form of government which re-| sults when men blend themselves to- gether for the common good. Representative government in a} democracy compels people to stop and) think and prevents mob rule, It is im- possible for the man in business to be sufficiently acquainted with the prob- lems of government to know the best procedure, and while a representative ~ government, is no better’ than the citi- +ieSbSMARebhbat.ccp3omtes jt, jt can be. better, if the people are careful ways to select the better men. “Mr. Eastman then raised the ques- tion as to the difference between man and the animal world about him and declared that when in the development of life a being acknowledged the ct of a creator and called it deity, mav} was. And when that hour came the force was released which compels, man to create. This ability and desire to create for himself will always prevent the real- ization of socialistic and communistic wick Newell Company Entertaining ma A Ot. al-|around our Dr. Charles 8. Price ine Martino, New York Prima Donna A democracy enables every man to say: “With my creative force I build a@ state.” He pointed out that six months aft- er the overthrow of the Russian dem- ocracy and the establishment of So- viet. government, the leaders acknowl- edgéd that the new system was a fail- ure. The factories were not produc: ing and industry was at a standstill. The reason lay simply in the fact that since time began in every association of men, one man has led and one has been led because no two men are alike. Russia found that bureaucratic gov- ernment would not work. That there must be a central will. Anarchy has resulted. Strikes are settled by ma- chine guns. An absolute dictatorship has supplanted the dream of liberty and freedom. There is little differ- ence between battalions of labor and battalions of slaves. ‘ To turn the channels of production in America over to the government, Mr. Eastman pointed out, would ne cessitate the raising up of a man big enough to direct the entire business— an utter impossibility, considering the size of America and the limits of the human brain. The present sugar shortage is due ‘to someone's mismanagement of such a public trust. “I'm glad they didn’t have control of the rest of the food,” Mr. Eastman said. “The Socialist says: Uncle Sam, you take care of all the production we'll work about three hours a day,/; You Geer at noon, and -life will be one grand and glorious loopa- da-loop. “But it won't.

SMITH Casper Typewriter REMARKABLE PICTURES OF ALASKAN BIG GAME Doctor Price Comes to Chautauqua With Illustrated Lecture. A fascinating story of the Far North is brought to Chautauqna audiences on the fourth night, when Charles s. Price presents his splendid illustrated lecture, “Hunting Game In Alaska.” It is unquestionably one of the fore- most travel lectures of the platform, ind it is illustrated with probably the finest set of Alaskan big-game pictures in existence. You will see the great fur-seal herds of the Priblof islands, whale-harpooning, and be brought face to face with timber wolves, mammoth Kodiak bears and grizzlies. ‘Chrough- out the lecture runs a strong vein of humor that will delight you. a pow You can't be satisfied to stay still.” The immense power which ment boards have for good or evil Mr, 3astman illustrated by pointing out the effect on society of the action of the Federal Reserve board recently in fixing interest rates. The Interstate Commerce Commis- sion, considered unimportant when created affects the entire country when it now makes a ruling. He closed with an appeal for a high- ler conception of the responsibility, of being Americans and the presenting of a united front against ideas which threaten American democracy. The Fenwick Newell company which gave the musical prelude both afier- !noon and evening is a company com- posed of real musicians, Mr. Newell has a tenor voice of exquisite qualitv, smooth and flawless in tone and with la fine range. He sang several songs govern which John McCormack has made fa- Imous, including “I Hear You Calling Me" and “Mavis.” Miss Hober, the violinist, has a perfect mastery of ber} instrument, and produces a delicacy of tone which is exceptional. Some of ther most delightful numbers were “‘Romance” by Lieurance, “Souvenir” by Drdla, and “The Bee" by Schubert. Miss Ruby Page Ferguson, dramatic reader, gave the delightful comedy, “Green Stockings” by A. E. W. Ma son, as the principal feature of the programi yesterday afternoon. The storm somewhat interfered“ with the performance, and some people, becom- ing frightened at the viotence of the ‘wind, left the tent. However, Boy Scouts and members of the crew care- fully watched the stakes and tent poles, and those who remained to the end of the performance were well re-| paid. a Remember the good old Republican days when you could buy a pound of coffee for fifteen cents and find al piece of jewelry in the bottom of the package?
