The island had been for yours TT tor-

slders, and never appreciated by those
who know its existence. Mr. Stokes
bus polished It 1111, to be sure, but. Its
Inherent bounty had been there all
the time.

So much has been printed about the
sea walls, and onusoways. and things
that Mr. Stokes was going to build,
that it seemed as though it was some
sort of a fort which was in course of
construction. As an actual fact, the
privileges which he opened from the
Legislatl re and (without having got-
ten In t e headlines) from the War
llcpuitmont, ware very harmless so
for us the general welfare of this
community is concerned, hilt have
been used In such a way as to be of
noticeable. advantage to the surround-
,Iug shore trout. The bill for 11 conso-
way. which utilised such a flurry when
It came 1111 in the Legislature, isn‘t
going to rob the community ei‘ any
l'lpitl‘iitll rights. The island 1s now
reached by 11 Wooden bridge, which
was built sverul years ago, and Mr.
Stokes wishes to replace this by 11
stone structure, which will be of u
more permanent nature.

lie. used the word causeway in his
petition because It is used in some ol’
the old deeds relating to the. island.
As 1111 actual fact, the Island used to
be reached by u causeway of loose
stone. Work on the stone. hildge will
not be commenced for the present. A
good deal of sea wall and 11 break-
water. It those terms may be used
without causing undue alarm, were
built under authority from the War
Ilepurtiiient. The Legislature, bow-
eT'or, also gave. the authority. so
there is a good legal foundation for
every stone that has been set. it may
he said here that the chief objection
against tile sea wall gr,1111ts asked t'or
by shore. property owners in recent
Tears, has been the knowledge. that
there 11eT-orwas to be a sea. wuil
erected. 111 such cases, the. grants
would be. simply deeds'oi‘ the shore
from. between low and high water
marks. Aside from the sea walls and
breakwater, Mr. Stokes has built a
landing. at which there are five feet
of water at. low tide. 'I‘Iie develop-
ment of the island has been carried
out with the utmost taste, with the
result that its natural qualities have
not. been in the least marred, but

is a T-oml'orlubie-lookiug structure, al-

111er Mr. Stokes has lived in it, and he
expects to make it his permanent
home. Mr. Stokes and his wife
spend :1 number at weekends at the
Island last. winter, and will be, there
all of the coming winter. excepting

“ilut don't you think it is utterly

“No: l decidedly do not," replied
Mr. Stokes, with 11 flush at that slu-
cerity and honesty of conviction
which TTl1uructeri'I.eti the entire iulk.
“i do not. believe it Is hopeless." be

ed an enormous sum to match the re
sources of the state, which not only
had almost unlimited funds. but had
the machinery of government hack
of it. Organized labor saw one of Its
members unjustly accused of crime,
and it gave him the means to prove
his innocence. That is all It did for
Haywood. Regarding the jury sys-
tem, socialism does not condemn it.
If individual socialists have pointed
out defects in it, that Is no more than
many who me not socialists have
done. We merely take the stand that
trial by jury is about the best meth-
od to bring about the ends sought
that; has as yet been evolved "

“is there anything In socialism on-

tagonisilc to denominational reilg~
Ion?"
"Nothing: absolutely nothing. so-

ciullsm hours the some rehtion to re

omy. You may find non- rbelievors
among the. socialists. but you will
Tits find them in other political par-
ties. ’I‘hon, perhaps. some bitterness
has been occasioned on the part of
some who have felt the sting of the
present regime, and who have thought
they saw 11 relation between church
authorities and capitalist classes."

When the talk got urop’ud to So-
ciallstlc papers, Mr. Stokes was asked
It be thought the average of these
would appeal to intelligent ptople.

"i do not," he replied, “but you
must not judge. socialism by the pa-
pers supporting it. Take the Sun. for
lusty no. 11 is vehement In Its ut-
tucks 011 Roosevelt. Well. now, It
would not be fall it one were to
judge the attitude. oi the whole Re-
publican party by the editorial page
of the. Sun. although It Is a Republi-
111111 paper. And so it Is with the So-
cialist press. .I 11111 free to say that,
as yet, the Socialist press has not. at.-
tuiued 11 higimliterary standing. The
same reasoning Would apply to So
ciulist oratory, The whole cause.
should not be judged by the utter-
ance. of some. individual who go to
excess in their denunciations, but in
most cases you will find that such
persons have felt themselves a touch
of the hardships and the bitterness of
the present regime."

Mr Stokes will devote neaily all
his time to the propaganda work of
the Socialist party. Last winter he
spoke, on an average. five times 11
week, and this included a. monitor of
open-air speeches. That. sort. of
speaking, however, is not. well suited
to Mr. Stokes‘s style, and for that
reason he will not be, heard in Stone
