Socialist ideas ignite Algona talk with barbs and forecasts
An Algona audience heard a Socialist orator critique both major parties. He labeled Democrats as decadent and out of date while praising Republicans for political savvy, accusing them of graft under the banner of "The old flag and an appropriation." He warned capitalists will move into land investments later, and claimed Socialists alone can curb predatory capitalists and protect the people's inheritance.
