How Uncle Jerry Managed to Get A1on.

Down in the Maine woods half-a
dozen miles away from any other hab

fertile farms. A down-country man
who for some reason wished to 60 tc

chase of one of these farms, which lie
all in a row; and he asked the people
who We're trying to sell to him what

Am sorry that cannot send you list OF
names. The blacklist prevents knights
from getting employment. Even around
the city men who are known to be mem
bers of the order are boycotted by the
class who control the means of produc-
ton. .. M.
Yes, and while the above is an out
rageous fact, it is also lamentable truth
that there are many worklngmen who
are able to help along the labor press,
but who refuse to do anything them
selves, and, in great many cases,
through jealousy, envy or what not, do
all in their power to keep others from
supporting it.
The BLACKLIST as an enemy of honest
labor, is equalled by the fratricidal con-
duct of men in the ranks who nave axes
to grind or imagined debts to paw; and
the labor press is a heavy sufferer from
this. The would-be assassinator of the
labor press, under the guise of the "con-
servative," is a foe to the cause, and
should be made to shut up.

A SPECIMEN CRITICISM.

Mr.. George is very popular because of
held in common. Everyone is pleased
with his books; but he is no entirely
consistent, for while preaching that
property should be held in common, he
copyrights his books, and makes all that
he can out of their sale. Like many
other preachers, he does not follow his
own pleCepts. Republican.
The above is an average of the know
ledge and truthfulness of the prostituted
editor of the capitalistic press. Those
who have read Henry George to any
purpose know that he does not advocate
the holding of property in common.
He is not far enough advanced in this
direction to be accepted by the Social
lists, and they do not believe in the com-
mon ownership Of private property
that is, what is produced by private eff
fort and destined for private use.
To sum Mr.. George up, he believes III
the abolition of private title in land, and
in the abrogation of all tariff laws. b 1t
if he was an advocate of what the Re-
publican charges, is that any reason why
he should disarm himself entirely in a
battle where everv other person in the
world is his foe? A man may live un-
der monarchy and advocate republi-
canism; and yet he WoulI be set down
as lunatic if he attempted to run lit
tie one-man republic. The editor OF
this paper believes in the abolition of
the competitive wage system; yet be
has to conform to the custom and pay
as other publishers do for the work on
his paper.
AS logician the editor of the Repub-
lican, who is always writing about .ther
folks being "impracticable," will never
startle the world Of thinkers ami rea-
soners-he simply disguSts men of sense.

{
nese labor, hence the purpose ofemploY-
ing armed man"
The statement that white labor is
scarce is lie; and the company and
Swain know it is, as did the Republican
when it repeated it. The west and
northwest are literally alive with idle
white men seeking work. This move OF
the Pacific company is the first step In
carrying out the programme of running
Coolie labor in to work on the railroads
of the west, that was pre- eiicted by The
Esou1p a few months ago. The Chi.
namen at present work for less than a
white man can sustain decent exist
ence with; but expense is not such a
factor with the corporations as is the de-
sire to supplant tie white men and es-
tablish the Coolies in their place. The
Republican says $50 Cinnamon are at
work. and they are guarded" by the
several hundred armed men under
Captain Swain )" so it is easy to sea that
if the Coolies work for nothing, the ex-
pense of keeping the guards makes
the move temporarily verv costly. But
the managers of the company see
future ahead of them, when they Will
have the Cinnamon doing their work at
so cents, or less, day, and the white

although no open quarrel has &C.
Cured, it is charged that the white
laborers, urged on by certain parties in
Seattle, are preparing to rout the Chi
nese with dynamite, and it will doubt

1t may be necessary to urge" the
white laborers to use dynamite on the
Cinnamon; but if they need any urging
to put some of it under the guards,
they are unworthy of the title Of Ameri
cans. If this be treason, then throw
open the doors of your bastile.

A REACTION.

Right after the Chicago trial(?) there
was great deal of excitement and yell
ing. One Chicago paper suggested that
"the Anarchists should be blown up
with dynamite bombs" and fend IN
the same city thought "they should be
sliced and sated;" but all that has
stopped. These kind of uttefances have
put the people to thinking, and the great
majority of them have begun to remem-
Der that the capitalist class and its press
have been wont to speak in this manner
every time there was a labor distur-
baDce" during the past ten wears. This
refreshing of memories is being follow
by queries as to whether such utterances
Of the capitalist class were not "accesso-
ries before the fact"
The people are now questioning if the
threats of the McCormicks and Pinker,
tons to break up the peaceful organiza-
tlOns of WOrkingmen; the belligerent
attitude of the police on the night of
the haymarket episode, and long before,
were not accessories before the fact"
The people are wondering if there is
not great deal of truth in all this quiet
talk about thier constitutional right of
free speech and press and public assem-
blage being Interfered with
The people are beginning to ask
whether the police are their servants,

press is continually warning the WORK
ingman against those who preach doc
trine called radical should be guaran-
tee to the workingman that radicallsm
is a thing which has in 1t something OF
good for him.
If the raw recruits in the labor paper
ranks could conce nitrate their In.
tellects on certain portions of the "declar-
alton of principles" of the K. of l., they
possibly could read or spell out the car
dinal principles of that much-despised
Socialism which they combat. with ven
geance eaualled only by the capitallstlc
press. -... (.
They apparently cannot realize that
the world is moving upward and onward
only by following the lead of radical
thinkers.
The fathers of the old abolition move
ment were radicals whom no one at
first followed and whom everybody
desplsed, but they fought their way
through the swamp of ignorance until
their ideas were engrafted into the very
constitution which they at the start
we're accused of endeavering to break
and endanger.
Henry George put forward, a few
years ago, ideas of such radical nature
that great many of this same kind OF
labor editors hooted him as poor fool
ish crank, but to day they are shouting
for him for mayor, congress and presi-
dent
And thus it is, that the men who lay
the track for the car of evolution are al
ways denounced when they get out o
the old rat and push on into the unex'
plored regions of thought there to dis
cover the gem of human progress.
