COMMUNISTS organizations are in
creasing in cities. l, is SAID that they
seek TO bring about an equal distribu-
tion of property. Ii an equal distri-
button of property were to take place
20 morrow, in less tEan six months these
people would spend their portion, and
then would be just where they began.
To keep them gong it would be neces-
sary to make distribution every few
months. They are people who accu
mulate DO property. They d. not
strive TO cultivate the virtue of con-
tiuuous eff,rt and economy, so as to
become property holders and tax pay
ers. The most of them are gamblers,
rum drinkers aud loafers, and if the
people were like they are, relapse to
n state of society such as the Indian,
the South Sea islander, and the jungle
negro OF Africa enjoy, would be ours
They are good ST tearing down, not
building up. Paris, in France, is an
illustration. Their ideas of govern
,nent, as far a. known, are contrary to
the ideas of American government.
The idea or which this government is
founded is that all men are equal be-
fore the law; that all men have the
opportunity to business. to ofice, and
to the acquisition of property, and that
what man acquires honestly as prop
erty is bis own, and that the State has
no right over it further than to impose
.uch tax on it as is necessary TO give TO
the owner complete protection OF per-
con. .ud ownership {" property
