The INCREASE OF SOCIALISM IN GERMANY
Up to 1860 socialism hardly existed in Ger
many. AT that time man rose who, favored
by circumstances, succeeded i'm transplanting
the novel doctrine from Paris 10 Berlin DR.
Lassalle, young scholar OF uncommon gifts
ambitious, passionate and born agitatoT by
his feryid writings and speeches, managed 10
create the nucleus OF party. What assisted
him in his daring enterprise was the conniy-
ance Of governmental and conservative poll.
uclans, anxious to set wOrkingmen against the
middle classes, who, I'm the parliamentary con
ToverSy then raging, had rendered themselves
Objectionable.
u. Without dwelling upon the sad feature Of
the inclplent agitation, or entering at this
Stage upon other and more natural causes at
lne root oil the evil let il suffice 10 speak here
OF The rapldlty with which the cOnfiagratiOn
spread when the igniting spot had once kim
dled. Alter abortiye attempts made in two
preceding elections, the socialists i'm 1871 sue
ceeded in collecting 10000 votes and return
ing two members TO the German parliament.
In 1874 they had $40 90 votes, and nine men,
bers; in 1877 they registered 497 900 votes, de
putting II members TO the national legislature
The Importance OF these figures will be appar-
ent from comparison of the numbers of
voters. In 1871 the total of enfranchised elec-
tors In the German Empire amounted 10 S,943,-
W0 Of these 5,557, 200, or about 90 per centum,
having voted, il follows that nearly One-tenth
