A "P, 6, O, Az PLAY.

In "this great free country" there is
class of people who are eternally boast
ing of the liberties for which OUR
fathers fought, bled and died" who don't
know what liberty means who think
the only distinction between slave and
freeman is that of color.
Denver has more than her share of
this cattle, and the way they below
at times would make one think some
body had twitched their tails or the in
visible Ito them yoke of their drivers
was pinching uncommonly hard. AS be-
fore stated, they seem to take monu-
mental pride in the boast that America
is the land of the Free where every
man has the right to free speech, free
thought and free action-so long as he
doesn't infringe upon the rights of an
other. Yet these "freemen" in their zeal
to toady to wealth and aristocracy will
raise their cracked voices against free
expression of opinion when that opinion
is derogatory to the rule of cold-blooded
aristocrats, tyrants and despots. I refer
at this time to a preamble and resolu-
tions adopted by society in this city
styling itself the "P. S. o. A."-which
letters applied to the document in ques-
ton might be taken to mean "pusillani-
nous simpering of animalcula."
A short time ago the irish agitator, Mr.
P. J. Sheriden, delivered lecture in this
city, in which he advocated practical
measures for the relief Of his enslaved
and oppressed people in Ireland. Upon
that occasion Postmaster Morris acted as
the president of the meeting and made
the customary remarks of such a posi-
ton.
Now, here comes your "P. s. O. A."
with an assumptions, insulting string of
slush censuring Mr.. Morris for his horri-
BILE conduct upon that occasion. These
lovers of freedom; these perpetuators of

Civilized WARFARE.

A telegram dated London, March Is,
referring to Egyptian affairs, says: "The
troops returning to Saukim cheered
greatly the personal heroism of Adams
Frazer, the largest man of the Black
Watch regiment. Twelve Arabs were
laid low by his bayonet." England re-
joices over the brutality of this man,
but flushes with indignation at dyna-
mite explosion, which kills only one or
two and in the latter case she cries out
against the cold -blooded murderers who
perpetrated the awful crime.
1t Is time this miserable hypocrisy
which makes such distinctions in de-
fense of its own crimes was well under
stood There is, however, great differ
ence between the acts of Adams Frazer
and the perpetrators of the dynamite
outrages," and to the clear headed hu-
manitarian the weight of preference
rests with the dynamiter.
The British soldier does the butchering
of his tyrannical master for pay and he
nor any of his countrymen have any
business in Egypt if they are there upon
the mission which takes him there. He
is the throat-cutting slave of a tyrannical
master, who bids him murder slaves like
himself and he receives his reward in
the shape of money. His ignorant and
brutal associates, and his despotic and
red-handed rulers cheer him because he
has taken the life of twelve fellow-b beings
in one charge. This is civilized warfare.
Note the difference: A man whose
back is Scared by the slave-driver's
whip, but whose heart swells with love
of freedom and country and whose only
wish is to sacrifice himself that his
brothers may live and be free, attempts
to blow off the head of tyrant or bring
him to his knees through fear, and all
the world cries shame on such brutal
and inhuman warfarew Without hope
of personal reward taking his very life
in his hands, the enthusiast makes what
he considers strike for freedom, and he
is called an assassin, though only one
life may be taken in his onslaught. The
"ciyilized" soldier drenches his bayonet
in the blood of dozen slaves con-
tinue the slavery-and great, Christian
England calls him a hero and loads him
down with honors and medals.
Look upon these two modes of warfare
from any standpoint you choose, and if
you are an honest man, with three grains
of sense, you can but commend that
waged against England. and condemn
that carried on by her. The former is
intended to be in the interest of freedom
and takes fewer lives than the latter
mode The latter is for the purpose of
subjecting people and results in whole
sale butchery.

cite that the object of the combination is
to eliminate from society q destructive
element called anarchists" but the
federal council of Switzerland sees
through the thinness Of this; it under
stands that it is to throttle growing
sentiment of Freedom, and it refuses to
be a party to the devilish work.
The refusal of Little Swiss" to take
part in the scheme has the appearance
of an insurmountable barrier In the road
of the crushers, and it is more than prob
able that the plan proposed will have
to be abandoned. So long as Switzerland
refuses to become party to the tyran-
nical plot it will serve as place of
refuge for the prosecuted apostles of
Freedom of other countries, and under
the international laws it will be impos-
sible to take the refugees from there to
the scaftold or knife of any of the des-
pots, upon the simple charge of Social
ism,-"a desire for better form of gov
eminent"
If the class Bismarck and his bloody
harded colleagues are hunting is COM
posed of the fiends they would have the
world believe, they can easily be brought
back for punishment from Switzerland.
But the simple fact that the refusal of
Switzerland to join the confederation has
stopped its work shows conclusively
what the move means.
1 hope my readers will think over this
matter, and probably some who have
been taught by the capitalistic press and
politicians to look upon Socialism as a
horrible thing, will find good reasons
why it should have the hearty support
of every producer in the world who
loves Freedom.

THE GIFT RENEFIT.

The enterprise for the relief of THE
ENQUIRER bids fair to be a perfect sue
cess, though it is now certain that more
time will be required for it's fulfllment
than at first counted upon. All the
friends of the cause speak encouragingly
of the scheme and great many have
backed up their opinions by buying
tickets themselves and taking others to
sell
If the people who should take an in
terest in this work will only do so, the
tickets will all be sold by the first of
April, but if they are luke-warm or care
less it may take the whole summer to
dispose of them. That they can be sold
there is no doubt, for the investment is
not only laudable from the standpoint Of
the benefit iAgoes to. but it is also good
one from business point of view. The
prizes are quoted at the rea! market
value and the number of chances is SO
limited that every dollar received for
tickets is represented in the gifts. The
lots are worth to-day $3.50, and the
probabilities are they will be greatly en-
HANGED in value during the coming sum-
mer.
A syndicate has been formed for the
purpose of reviving the Swansea smelter,
and l understand steps are being taken
for the immediate carrying out of that
programme. If such a thing is done it
will increase the value of all the prop
erty in that vicinity. This is perfectly
clear to everyone; but l do not base my
hopes of quickly filling the gift club
upon that ground. hope no such argu-
ment is necessary. The paper needs
help to keep it going; the friends Of the
cause ought to be willing to render that
help. Mr.. Vinot has donated the lots
to the fund and, as they are useless to
pay bills with, this method of converting
them into money has been adopted.
| would like to see every ticket taken
by workingmen and women, and am
willing to move little slowly to accom-
plish that idea; but must ask that our
friends bestir themselves as much as
possible in the next two weeks.
The drawing will take place in pub
lie manner, and the date will be duly
announced, when the tickets are sold, so
that all holders will have an opportunity
to be present. The holder Of the lucky
number will be given warrantey deed
to the lots-ta1es paid for this year-as
soon after the drawing as desired. l
still have some tickets in the Office,
which l will deal out to those desiring
them; either singly, in groups or to be
sold bv those taking them.

the principles for which OUR fathers
fought; these Fourth of July liberators,
come out in the Tribune censuring Mr..

I haven't even speaking acquaintance
with him. But there is principle in

interested in, and which l am ready to
lay down my life for, without any of the
silly conceit and hypocrisy of some Of
the boasted liberty-lovers. And for this
reason desire to say to my readers that

people of another country have the same
God-giyen rights.
Bah! the subject is disgusting, and l
leave it for the present, with the remark
that l am sorry to see the names of two
or three gentlemen used in connection
with the resolutions for whom l haye

Aldermanic,

Two friends of THE ENQUIRER, out of
three announced, received nominations
at the aldermanic primaries P. Nc
Philomv, in the Ninth ward, md A. H.
Root in the Sixth. Mr.. McPhilomy has
been chosen as their candidate by the
democrats of the Ninth, and Mr.. Root
has received the nomination of the re-
publicans of his ward, and it now rests
with the voters at the general election
to see that these gentlemen are placed in
the city council.
The fact that the gentlemen belong to
different political parties evidences that
this paper does not support them be-
cause they are "the nominees" but upon
personal grounds. Now, what are these
grounds This is workingman's paper,
and will have nothing to do with party
politics. In fact, as a general principle,
it is opposed to ballot box agitation and
combination; but much as the editor
feels that the ballot as at present mis-
used, is powerless to effect much lasting
good for the workers, so long as there
are elections and friends Of workingmen
will run for Office. he feels it a positive
duty to support such men.
Mr.. McPhilomy is workingman he
was elected last spring by the working
men; be has been the workingman-alder-
man during his term, and has demon
strated that he desires nothing further
than opportunity to represent and serve
them. WOrkingmen of the Ninth ward
should remember these things on cleo
ton day, and not allow any kind of pref
udice or influence to prevent them from
doing their plain duty.
Mr.. Root was the nominee of the
workingmen in the Sixth ward last
spring. He was supported by this paper
because Of his past record as a member
of the council and that record still
stands good to-day, which entities him
at this time, not only to the support of
the workingmens paper, but to the votes
Of all the workingmen in the ward.
When a member of the council some
years ago Mr.. Root opposed an attempt
to reduce the pay of city employees and
it was almost entirely due to his firm
stand and unfinching devotion to the
cause that the measure was defeated. A
more extended account of this transac-
ton will be given in the next issue of
THE ENQUIRER. In the meantime it is to
be hoped the mechanics and laborers of
the Sixth ward will make up their minds
to vote for Mr.. Root and show apprecia-
ton of firm friendship for them and
their cause.

opera to which Denver has been treated
