SoCIALLSTS IND FARMERS.

The Arch Fiend would neither be shrewd nor
successful, If he should appear with his hOofs
and horns in public. The evil spirit of So
cialism lacks satanic cunning whenever it
suffers its real purposes to be seen. Masking
under all sorts of disguises as lnflatiOnist,
Labor Reformer, or enemy of National Banks,
the Socialist gains the sympathy of many.
Whenever he pulls off the mask, and shows
the real hatred Of all property rights which
moves him, intelligent and conservative men
recoH. The platforms of Socialistic parties
are prepared for public inspection therein the
Socialist puts on the best mask he can. But
the speeches of orators and the sayings of
Journals in that interest are sometimes in
cautious and uDmasked, so that whoever will
may see the hOofs and horns. At Philadelphia on
Saturday the Observation-Disclosures party, so called,
held its first campaign meeting, and Henry
Carey Baird, a writer who believes in the un-
limited issue of greenbacks, spoke for time,
not wisely, but with some cOncealment OF the
purpose of movement which, to 30 him JUS
tice. he probably does not understand. Then
came a Labor RefOrmer named Charles s.
Keyser, who poured out passionate euogy
of Kearney, the California revolutionist. Hav-
ing pOrJfdyeU tno pOWeI VI PiOFOl'J lhVciOS0o,
he declared: "By whomsOever--by one means
I" OF another--by Kearney or Carey-by high
intelligence or brute force-by the ballot or
"by the bullet, it must be destroyed And
"let us remember when that one more cruel
4" war shall be over, in that happier future
which shall surely come, that Kearney was
" the frst-rude, violent and vulgar though
she was-the first man to strike decisive
al blow against this huge dem oralizing power"
kearney Is the most notorious, because the
most extravagant and violent, of all the men
in this country who declare war against all
rights of property. The blood-stained assas-
sins of the Commune of Paris, who have
refuge here in this city, are more laxative,
but not more extreme in their ideas Of the
social revolution which they desire, and not
more reckless in the means which they would
employ. All talk of the ballot first, because
they fancy that the farm-owners and farm
workers of this free country can be enlisted
to aid Socialistic revolution. But all think
of the bullet, also, and mean to use it as the
rioters did at Pittsburg and elsewhere last
Summer, whenever the forces of established
order appear likely to prevail. We may as
well face the fact that the American Commu-
mist, who calls himself Greenbackern OF
Labor Reformer," is great deal nearer ac-
tual riot and revolutionary revolt against the
existing order of society and its laws than he
is aware.
The same notion that farm-owners can be
enlisted in this revolution against rights of
property appears on every page Of The AdvO-
cate, a paper which has gained large circula-
ton as am organ of the Greenback-Labor
or "National movement In this paper dec

earn less than they think they ought to earn
or who dislike to pay taxes to meet oohga-
lions of the Nation, State, county OF
town, or who want to seize the rail-
ways and telegTaphs. and to control the
public works, in the hope of gaining
some advantage, are persistent and adroit'
Yet this paper, making war upon nights when
farm owners have more interest than anybody
else to defend, and sowing the seeds or
bloody and destructive revolution to the
utmost of its power, appeals specially to Mas
ters of all Oranges In the country, Offering
them special rates because of their position.
They, it holds, are teachers OF the people,
and have influence with the largest working
class in the country, and this class 1t Is hoped
that they will influence TO the adoption OF
doctrines subversiye of all order and destruc-
tive of all rights Of property.
II is important that the farmers OF this
country should be right If property is TO DC
assailed, they hold majority OF the property
If labor is to be helped, they represent a
majority of the labor. Cooperative farming
is not necessarily bad; but it involves
change in the ownership of the farms which
have been created by unreasonable patience
and toll. Those who have laboriOusly created
and those who hold from them, imagine that
they have some rights which the State VIII
defend. A SOcialistic revolution makes war
upon rents as well as upon interest; 1t strikes
at farmers as well as bOndhOders.
More broadly. this movement makes war
upOn all property and all its rights under ex-
listing laws. 1t is not reputation only, but
something deeper. There is no conceivable
obligation, affecting values savings, or the
rights of those who have saved, which it does
not aim to break Whenever the mask Is
dropped, by orator or newspaper, the same
destructive and revolutionary spirit appears
The Master of Grange who dallies with this
spirit is the worst foe of an that the owners
of landed estate should most jealousy guard.
The substantial and conservative citizen,
whatever his business, ought TO look upon
every approach of this demon of Socialism
with dread. 1t has caused streets to run with
blood in Europe, and there is no interest IN
civilized society from highest to lowest,
which it has not caused TO suffer terribly.
The sooner this country sets foot on 1t the
better.

THE JULY EXOD Us.

New-York never probably looked so vacant
in July as during the present season. The
stampede out of town during the hot weather
has been more general than ever before,
partly because accommodations in all classes
of Summer resorts are, as a rule, cheaper than
they have been for years. and partly because
there is so little business to detain men in
town. Retail dealers miss the midsummer
tourist trade from the West, which used to be
a certainty of no insignificant value, and find
it to their advantage that their clerks and
statesmen should take longer and earlier vaca-
tons this year than usual.
Another reason why the hegira from town
to country increases in volume with each year
is that our people are learning to take
their vacations with more good sense
aud economy. It is no longer con-
sidered necessary even by women who
ape the fashion, to show Themselves hot,
overdressed, and perspiring at seaside and
mountain hotels. The number OF unpreten-
tious Summer homes increases annually; the
most secluded valley and the highest noun
tain peak are invaded by townspsOple, eager
for scenery and cheap board; many families
have tried the plan of camping out; our col
lege boys are adopting the habit of German
students, and make up pedestrian parties for
the vacation bands of ragged, villanous look
ing tramps who 90 on foot about the State,
haunting dusky mountain defles, turn out to be
eminent divines and doctors with murderoui

PEcENT KAILURES.

II is not surprising that the number Of failures re-
ported for the first half of 1873 is 5S25, against
only 4, 749 during the first half of 1877. As the
number during the first quarter was larger than 1t
has been in any similar period preceding, 80 the fall
ures of the second quarter number 2,47O, against
1 $50 during the first quarter of last year. The
chief causes Of this extraordinary commercial NOR
talty are well known, and it is the less painful TO
describe them because they have ceased for time
10 have effect. Expectations Of changes of Tariff
undoubtedly caused heavy losses to manufacturers
and to importing merchants; and even where both
were united in interest, the same legislative fascO
caused loss to both, by prompting delay of pur-
chases IL is not likely that this curse will come
again before January next but the actual repeal of
the Bankrupt Law, taking effect in September may
cause disasters almost as numerous as were caused
during the last half year by the expectation Of
repeal.
The liabilities Of firms failing during the first half
OF 1879 have been $3.50. $50, 1906 an increase of
more than 30 per cent sine last year. In this city,
however, in Philadelphia and Pennsylvania. in
Massachusetts, and Boston, in Illinois and Chicago,
the increase was still larger aud in Boston over
200 per cent and in Philadelphia about $50 per
cent. Failures at San Francisco and St. Louis were
relatively small. The half year has fallen much
more heavily, as is natural, upon the manufacture
ing and trading than upon the agricultural regions
though there have been numerous and heavy fail
urcs in some of the farming States.
The average Of liabilities for each failure has been
unusually low during the last quarter, and this
might be considered good symptom, but for the
fact that very many of the failures within that
period have been designed only to escape proceed
ings for debt. During the half year, the average
liabilities have been larger than they were during

Eden before them, and behind them VIII be
left in the Fall wilderness sown with
empty paint tubes, old novels, broken croquet
maIlets, torn founces, and country people
greedy for more town fashions and town
bOarders.
Meantime. while we talk of town being
empty. it is as well TO remember that there
are a million of people left in 1t. IL Is
the fashion in these dog days TO talk oil tne
stay-at-home as creature whose wretehed-
ness can be matched only by an oysters IN
August, or an eel alive on the kitchen
range. But he has his cOmpensations. III the
thermometer marks go, and Broadway is
baking, it is the era for him of cool, vacant
rooms, wherein he saunters and smokes, the
sbirt-sleeved monarch Of all he surveys OF
immunity from crying babies, public dinners
dress-coats domestic tea parties, or any sur
felt OF connubial sweets. He does not 1oun-
der half the day waist deep in slippery
stream for one miserable two-inch front, but
lies in bed while Betty buys them by the
pound and serves them-a dish for the gods
for breakfast. He does not Inhale the odors
of the salt sea wave, neither does he smell
the farmers pig-pen his couch is not the
needles of the fragrant pine, nor the we'll
peopled feathers of a bed in an unalred
garrett He does not commune with Nature
perhaps, but neither is he forced to
listen at every meal to the cackle
of lady tourists over their fancy work
or the number of pounds they have gained
since they left town. 1t is true he lacks the
tonic of fresh air and absolute rest but care and
temperance will 90 far to take their place.
Brick walls shut him in from the great world
of beauty, where God has written messages
that he who runs may read. But of what use
is it to go up into the mountain top with
Moses or into the harvest fields with the Great
Teacher, if we are too shOrt-sighted to see any
thing but crochet work and the register OF our
own weight by Fairbanks's scales ] II our
stay-at-home has an eye clear enough to read
the real meaning in Nature, there Is not weed
in the park, nor a wisp of sunlit smoke
overhead nor a ripple in the bay, that will
not give him keener pleasure than all the AL
leghanes or the sea could give TO his pur-
blind neighbOr. There are ruts of meanness
and sly ways and slOughs of nastiness which
he can climb up and out from in his own
house as well as in the Adirondacks; and
heights beyond any in the mountains which he
can reach without leaving home.

DRY they all agree upon is desire to

they would do if they got in. And upon
the whole the best thing for the people to do IS
to let them fight out their differences outside,

sented that they should be brought to this

be powerless when parents voluntarily sur
render their offspring to lives of misery.
