KEEP 1T UP.

The State, as political institution
has moral purpose. 1t is to pro-
tect the weak against the strong.
Thus the State grants charters to
corporations; declares the rate of
freight and the passenger fare for
railroads; determines the issue of
stock and the dividend; maintains a
compulsory school-law, factories or
no factories; carries on sanitary in
spectlon, and, in short, sees that
matters are conducted as they should
be, The State has just started on
its true Office. The legislature of
Massachusetts has "authorized"
manufacturing corporations to issue
stock to ''their operatives. The
State can not only authorize" them
but oblige them to dos The wage
slave system is an old relic of the
past. The State can abolish it by
recognizing the workers as legitimate
shareholders and co-operators. Thus
the State simply legalizes that which
is justice anyhow. The workers are
citizens and voters. OF this they
were reasonably and practically aware
at = !. the tn. last election. They can carry
on their own independent nomina-
ting and electing. They have started
right and they can certainly keep it
up, without the questionable assist
ance of either oily politicians or
raying anarchists. UNo.

THE DEGRADATION OF ART.

On all hands there is abundant
evidence that the ideas which Social
Democrats have been preaching to
the men in the streets for the last
five years are permeating the general
thought of the time. Over and over
again have we pointed out that the
sense of beauty must inevitably be
crushed out of the workers by the
hideous conditions of life into which
they are driven by our relentless
competitive system, and that these
conditions react in their turn even
upon those who cause them and
profit by them, in that low views of
life and debased ideal are forced
upon the nation generally. Without
high ideals there can be no real art
in any shape or form. Given a low
standard of national life, and race
of artists is gradually evolved, who
seek in vain for the Eight that
never was on land or sea-"
A most humiliatlng confession in
proof of this, and of what Social
Democrats are always saying, was
made by Sir Frederick Leighton
at the Academy Dinner. Speaking
of the years pictures, he said that
in the field of sentiment and imagin-
alton, and the pursuit of beauty,
there was lull and slackening of
pulse, and he partly attributed this
to the hesitation which accompanies
periods of depression in the national
prosperity. Our artists sense must
indeed be worthless when it is dulled
and diminished by depression in
trade, or stimulated by the hope of
gain. cart slongand life is short, -
is paraphrased by our modern artists
into "The purse is short and for us
true art is dead" If it depend for
its revival upon full purse then it
deserves to die.

LEADING TO POLITICS.

If there is amy virtue in the peace
full labor agitation that has been 90
ing on in this city and vicinity for
the past year or SO, and If the
thousands who have tlockcd into
labor organizations are to be pcrma-
nentIy benefited 10y taking the first
steps towards their liberation, there
must be something more attempted
than mere organization, involving as
it does, eycr-growing complexities in
It's management.
There is little satisfaction to the
workman, in the long run, to find
that he is but an individual cOnstit-
uent of society Legislators with very
circumscrIbcd spheres of activity
whose cnactmcnts cannot bccnf0rccd,
and are therefore of no benefit The
bare educational features of mina-
ture legislation will not long hold
the masses in combination. They
look for results, and to obtain results
means activity and interest in the
work of gaining advantages.
Now, the capitalists have spccula-
ted much upor the possibility of
labor'S interference in political mat
tiers; and to the thoughtful it evil
IDENTIFY seems natural that the work
ers should at no distant day combine
as citizens AMI exert somc infr,,llcl
IN their own government.
If the organized workmen ant

reasonably able to succeed in routins

pIinary effect; and it has been ar
gued that it would be easier to unite
upon abstention than to unite upon
candidates and policies,
On the other hand, if the evil of
wlrcpulllng and oflice-seeklng could
be eliminated by a well-deyiscd plan
a plan so cminently fair and above
board as to challenge criticism, it
would seem that even at this day
the worklngmen Of New Haven and
vicinity could exercise the right of
suffrage to some purpose; and the
exercise Of that right would not only
be disciplinary, but its results en-
couraging.
Next weeks issue will contain the
outlines Of II plan which was consid-
cred by a committee Of the Trades
Council some years ago, and which
it is believed would answer the de-
mand.

is latent and needs education to
make it effective. Their school is
the union and assembly, and unless
they study their parts well they will
continue to fail.
Above all, workingmen must get
out of the habit of relying entirely
on few leaders. They must edu-
cate themselves to understand what
their leaders want, and then they
can rely on getting the leaders. AT
present they are an undrilled army
vast but eomparatIv ely useless in the
face of a compact, cohesive foe. -

HELP YOURSELVES.

Show us any labor reformer who
has made money out of his efforts,
and who has kept persistently at

hearty and generous support, the
road to emancipation would be clear.
Instead of this, too often the slick
tatker, who appeals to the sympathy
and prejudice of his hearers, takes
the cake, while those who appeal to
reason, and scorn to present case
except on its merits, are defeated.
Workingmen must learn the lesson
thoroughly before they can be Veto
rious. Every defeat they encounter
is brought about by lack of knowl-
edge and preparation. Their power

WITH INTENT TO DECEIVE.

There is an evident desire and in
tent to deceive in nearly all the news
IN the daily press relating to the la
Dor movement. Even though an
honest publisher should wish to give
his readers correct and unbiased re-
ports of the doings of the labor az
my, he is forestalled by that gigan-
tic fraud, the Associated Press. The
news furnished by this scientific liar
is doctored for the occasion and
dlshed up to suit the monopoly com
blnation which has sworn to crush
labor. In the dispatches every day
we read of the defeat of the eight
hour movement and the discomfit-
ure of organized labor in every sec
ton. These false reports are sent
out to discourage workingmen who
are struggling for better condition
in life.
Not only in news by wire, but in
our local struggle, everything fur
nished by the boss builders is given
out as gospel truth, and the people
are fed on such mental pabulum as
the bosses cook up in secret con-
clave.
Another thing is also obseryant in
our mighty engines of intelligence.
Heretofore the press, almost with
out exception, have fought organic
ed labor-Openly, secretly, any way
and every-and now that labor or
CARNATIONS are thriving on abuse
and have developed their own advo-
Gates, the monopoly press have
brought into use another weapon

DANGER TO DEMOCRACY.

Gradually, using as pretexts the
various. disorders accompanying the
plumber OF the people, there are Or
dinances and laws being made and
fastened upon us as people, that III
their workings are crimes against
democracy. But the good people are
lulled by promises of security; their
fears are first worked upon, and pie
lures of bloody Iawlcssncss are held
up before them, Those who possess
wealth are frightened by the spectre
of the midnight robbcr, and they
welcome the deceptive "security"
that is furnished by the uniformed
servants Of corrupt and ambitious
politicians.
The science of controlling the
many by the few is made an import
ant study to-day. Already the be-
neticent results of the general posses
sion Of eqHa'iyiHg arms are fading.
When each citizen was. 10y the aid of
mechanical means. the physical equal
of his neighbor, when the "demo-
cratic musket" broke the power of
tory rule in America, our forefathcrs
were so full of appreciation of it that
they made it constitutional duty
for all citizens to carry arms. That
would imply the most approved and
effective weapons. This. together
with the franchise, faithfully OBJ
served, would keep an intelligent,
brave people, free; and freedom, re-
ciprocatlng, would guarantee intclh-
gence and bravery.
But what have We? We have
wage-slayery, and an unarmed pro-
letanat. The most holy rights of
property have been tramplcd upon,
and the workers property, their la
Dor, is exploited by a few who in
their turn blasphemously claim
protection to propcrty'-stolen
property. Robbed of their freedom,
with dulled perceptions, it is
proletarians that are hired-body
and soul-to defend the robbers in
their possessions,

There should be no quarrel be-
