From mans earliest history the race
has been divided into two classes the
class that lived by labor and the class
that lived from labor. This latter class
has been the most intelligent, the most
aspiring class always; in every sense Of
the word, the better class; better because
realizing more nearly in theory and life
the principle Of freedom. Il j. freedom
that makes the man; and everything that
initiates with mans freedom degrades
him. Toll binds moro than any other
master; and the man who refuses to toll,
though ignorant of the cause, even as-
cribing the fact to laziness. and deplor-
ing it all the time, is governed by mo-
bier sense Of freedom than he himself
knows. Il is the sense Of freedom in
grained in his Very flesh that restrains
him from work, and makes either .
vagabond or q freebooter of him. What
ever binds hinders, and whatever
hinders degrades. Nature proclaims
the truth above al creeds or dogmas
that man should be free; and, in the
fact that boys delight in stories Of wild,
free life unrepressed by Law, we find
confirmation Of this. We destroy the
stories Of banditti our children bring
in our homes lest they should become
contaminated, rs indeed they would,
becarse the law Of justice 20 far in
tho history of the world has not gone
hand in hand with the desire for free
dom, and our children cannot discrimi-
nate. They can only realize the sweet
intoxication of beautiful freedom even
while their consciences, their sympss-
thies, their humanitarianism il too un-
developed to trust them with it. The
time is now rapidly approaching when
men shall realize cultivated and glori-
fed freedom, as distinguished from ita
shadow, iawlessness. The thousands of
tramps now filing the land are examples
of the iniquity Of our present money
system but the fact SO much wondered
