In looking for a word which may express the general
nature Of the movement of society in Europe at tho
present time think diluted socialism Is the only ono
which is nc once correct and simple comprehensive aud
significant All the tendencies Of thought and cOntro
yeIsy in religion, politics. and social economy are moro
or less tlnged with the progressive aspirations Of by
gone socialism, under one or another of it's universal
aspects ALPHABETICALLY administered, socialism acted
strong emetc the body polite, but being trtu-
tuIatcd and diluted on the homeopathic principle IL
seems to have improved the health aud temper of
cley amazingly. lsay amazingly for myself am really
surprised to see the change which has been brought
about within the last ten years, even for 1913 il
only five years past and every question now discussed
in theory, end even practically dealt with Ia the halls OF
legislation is question Of reform and progress in tho
constitution of society England never happy and
prosperous 10 all appearance, within the period OF
my recollection, it is at the present time. Not that
oil that is desired desirable In the way Of progress
and reform, has been already realized but general opn-

To return TO the question Of Slavery and slave

a concliatory and progressive point Of view. 1 be-
