The cry Of outcast London is rising more
piercing and bitter every day. In Ire.
land they are still turning families out
Of their wretched homes TO freeze and
starve by the roadside. From everv
country in the world the meanings OF 9
suffering people rise from under the
piled-up grandeur and wealth which Is
that countrys boast. Everv day more
and more men 4rethrown out of employ
ment. and every day the aggregate
wealth Of the world is increased; but
increased IN elevators and warehouses,
not where it is needed.
The problem of distribution is forcing
itself to the front. Ministers, lecturers
and teachers are forced to notice these
vital questions whether or no. and
though they sometimes endeavor to turn
the subject into wrong channels, and
puzzle rather than clear the minds OF
their hearers, they are helping the pro
gress of the mighty march Of the new
civilization, though they do not know

Human beings cannot endure exist

years longer. A change, great Revolu-

tion goes on I'M the right direction, and
as working people everywhere prepare
for 1t, the Revolution may or may not
be comparatively peaceful one.

THE editors of Denver's daily press
have a weakness for lamp-posts. They
are always writing som thing about
hanging radical labor sgitators" to a
lamp-post. This is probably due to the
fact that they nearly all have weak
ness for the posts when going home,
about 8 o'clock in the morning. "Hang-
