INCREASING POWER.

THE ENQUIRER shows evidence of in
creasing power asa Resotntionary jour
nal this week, by the presence of num-
ber of powerful contributions from the
pens of women. When our mothers,
wives and sisters become thoroughly
aroused nothing can stand against us i'm
our struggle for,economIc independence.
No great chnn1rhas ever been effected
without H8nfSeance of woman, and
though she has been slow, at times, to
take hold, when she has done so, 1t has
OF been half-hearted work but a
labor to which she brought earnestness,
patience and hope. So say the move
ment for the emancipation of the people
is increasing in power, when our women
are coming in large and able numbers to
its support. s- -....I....,-.s
And why should they not be in the
front rank of the slavery -emancip alton
army2 Woman has been and is slave
in double sense: like her lord she is a
slave to the economic system, and be-
sides this she is, through social custom,
treated as the inferior of enslaTed man,
by the slave himself. Woman was the
first human being held in bondage; she
tasted slavery before the slave existed.
She can only be free when.men learn to
understand and appreciate freedom, and
then all mankind will know what Lib
erty means. Then let the women un-
derstand that their salvation must be
accomplished with that of their hus-
bands and brothers; and let the
men be made aware that no move
ment for improving the condition
of humanity can or should succeed, if it
excludes those who by an acci lent Of
birth are of the weaker sex"
Sisters, give your help to establish the
Brotherhood and Sisterhood of mankind;
help us to overthrow present iniquitous
social and political systems, and tie
emancipation of your sex will be as,
sured. The solution of "the woman
question" is impossible under present
conditions. But with the help, which
THE ENQUIRER shows we are to have,
these conditions must and will be

What a mysterious thing is profit. 1t
is virtue in private hands, aud a sin in
governmental affairs. What a crime for
a government to pay 80 cents for a guam
tity of silver, coin it, and dispose OF it
for 100 cents. How much would pri-
vate mint charge for coming ? Many ar
ticles in private trades bring 100 to 1000
per cent profit Perhaps the 20 per cent
asked by Uncle Sam is an outrage, but
where is all the holy horror which
should be felt for these private sinners
We'ought to make Uncle Sam virtuous
by insisting on 800 grains of silver in a

Dying in the Siberian Mines.

LONDON, Jan. ga dispatch from St
Petersburg confirms the report of the
death of DR.. Weymar IN the Siberian
lead mines. His history is sad and pc.
culiar. He had at one time the most lu,
cratiye practice in Russia. He was the
chief court physician under the late czar
and the confidential medical: attendant
of the czarewitch, now Alexander III.
His favor and influence at court was
boundless, but it is alleged that for years
he led dual existence. While fawning
upon the court, basking in its favor, and
getting its secrets, he was said to be the
most active partisan in all the great Nj.
hilist crimes of recent years.
One day in 1880 all Russia was
shocked by the murder of General Mes.
sendoff. The crime was surrounded
with 1.-The deepest mystery. The only
clue found by the detectives, after
months of search, was that the carriage
in which the assassins made their es-
cape was owned by DR.. Weymar. The
docter was arrested and confined in the
prison ofSt. Peter and St. Paul for MANY
months. He protested that he knew
nothing of the plot to murder General
Messendoff, and that his horses and car.
riage must have been stolen by the
murderers. ,.n,f,.--s. -.. ....1t '.- ~
/ While DR.. Weymar was in prison the
czarlwas murdered. When the doctor
was tried it was shown that he had be en-
an intimate friend of saloneff, who was
supposed to be the actual murderer of
the car, and who was hanged for that
crime: DR.. Wevmar was promptly con-
yicted, / Is estate was confiscated, and he
was exiled to- Transbaikalia, In eastern
Siberia. u In October, 1884. a Nihilist
named Lapatin was arrested for the
murder of General Messendof. He was
convicted and hanged. His last words

norance. Some would say sel6shness il
at the back of greater part of the ep
position. but say no; for if there wert
universal intelligence upon the subject
self-1nterest would urge the adoption Q
the ideas of the Socialist.
Advanced ideas must inevitably meet
with stubborn opposition 80 long as ed
ucation and intelligence are confined te
their present low level. and so long al
these advances involve the necessity o
encroaching upon vested interests they
will be bitterly resisted. The represen
tatives of vested interests feel that thelr
security lies in turning popular preju
dice against the new idea, and, owing tt
the ignorance of the majority and ths
venality of large part of the minority
it is no hard matter to sway the preju'
dice for time.
Y Every advance made by mankind hal
been led first by DETAINED, ridiculed
persecuted minority, butln time the mi
nority has become the majority, and the
hitherto unpopular idea has become
reality, firmly established, and ever
afterwards jealously guarded against the
inyasions of, those who would still fur.
ther advance.
The anti-slavery agitation in this
country was one among numberless ex,
amples in proof. The prosecutions Of
the early anti slavery agitators has been
the history of every material advance
made in the world. and the Socialism Of
to-day does not expect an exception in
its favor. But the Socialist is not dis.
couraged by opposition; it rather tends
to enthuse him to more earnest and Wig
oroug agitation; he remembers that
Christianity was once the creed Of very
insignificant minority, and that Christ
was put to DEATH. 81

the assurance that man will progress

ridicule and malicious perecutions.

CORPORATION BENEvoLENCE.

railroad company has created a new de
partment of its service, to be known a.
the "Relief Department; the object be
ing to tax employees a certain monthly
sum, and to pay an insurance in case O.
death or relief in case of accident. The
Republican says, "This is in the highest
degree commendable, and it will doubt
less have the effect of more closely than
ever uniting the employees and the com.
pany."
1t is in the highest degree atrocious
it is another species ofrobbery, and the
''unity" it will effect, will be to give the
blood suckers another opportunity tc
draw the life from their slaves. Look al
the thing with sense, and this is what
YOU will see;
The company makes this new rule
without consulting the employees, who
are to furnish the money, and each en-
ploye has to contribute of his meager
earnings, whether he likes or not. The
amount Of the assessment is deducted
from his pay each month. The absolute
control ofthe "Relief Department" rests
with the company officials, They select
their favorites for physicians, and they
are usually directnrs' dude relations, who
know no more of the science of medicine
or surgery than can be. learned from
reading an almanac, and they (the Off
cials) fix the salary of these poisoners
and butchers. If any emploYe refuses
to allow himself to be murdered by
these dudes, it makes no difference; he
has to submit to the deduction from his
wages, anyhow. =
If the attendants were competent and
under the control of the employees, the
scheme would still be robbery for the
amount exacted from each employs
monthly is out of all proportion with
the sum paid weekly in case of sickness,
or to the family in case of death. The
