ECHO AN SWERS YES.

Talking about echoes, Colonel Ogee-
chez claimed that he had one on his
place, few miles from Savannah,
which beat anything he had ever heard
or read about; one, in fact, which would
clearly repeat whole sentences. The
party of gentlemen were interested, but
incredulous, and arranged to accompany
Colonel Ogeechee home the next after
noon, to test the wonderful echo.
The Colonel found, on getting home,
that in the heat of the discussion he had
Gained more than the facts justified.
Determined not to be beaten, he called
his Irish laborer.
pat, says he, "some gentlemen are
coming home with me to hear the echo.
Now want you to 60 across the river
before the time for me to arrive, so you
can answer back whatever we may call
out"
You name for me to play echo, sorr?'
asked Pat, grinning.
That S it, exactly" said the Colonel.
Nov, do you thoroughly understand,
you arc TO answer back exactly what we
say"
"Oh, yis, sorr; ye can depind on me,
entoirely."
Next afternoon the Colonel took his
friends to the river bank, and all were
ready for the experiment.
Making speaking trumpet of his
hands, the Colonel roared:
Are you there"
Back came the echo with startling dis
tinctness:

editorial wiseacres say not one word
about it. Yet Liebknecht's triumph
is extraordinary. Every effort was
made to prevent fair vote from be-
ing taken. Meetings were sup
pressed, all literature, placards and
pamphlets seized, the leaders of the
people arrested right and left, horse,
foot and artillery were called in to
second the rutfianly brutality Of the
police. And yet-yet Liebknecht
polled $4,000 solid votes in this one
district, against 1900 cast for all
his opponents put together. Bis

that vote, and so does the Kaiser, if
Messrs. Buckle, Mudford, Lawson,

are neither better nor worse than
the platforms of their respective par
ties, and they, no doubt, represent
the intelligence of their adherents in
economic politics.
Against their ignorance and plat
tudes let us place the scientific utter
ance of the Platform Of the Socialist
Labor Party which, based upon his
tory and acknowledging existing
facts as factors, declares that:
"The present system carries within
itself the germs of new organization Of
humanity in the modern industrial
States, both economically and morally.
'I}y the evolution of this system to
the last stage, the proletarianized masses
Of workers will have opposed to them
comparatively few industrial despots,
and by reason of the unbearabl3 uncer-
tainty Of living conditions the former
will be compelled to abolish the wage
system, and establish the cooperative
society.
And the trusts are accomplishing
just what the socialist philosophers
predicted would be accomplished by
the operation of this system Of cap
talism and competltion-its own de-
struCton.
Progress and civilization, how
ever, demand more than the dcstruc-
ton Of evil systems, and evolution,
with the educational human mind as
Il factor in it, tends toward the con-
structlon of IA new system, based
upon tirmer basis than the compe-
tltion of Individual interests.
The teachings Of Socialism carried
out will prevent anarchy, and it is
to Socialism that civilized humanity
will, in the near future, turn as to
the competent savior Of society.
In the light of history and mod
ern economic philosophy, what mis-
cradle figures the great little men of
the dominant parties present to the
eyes Of progressive and intelligent
people.
But even the SIN is in Il mist.
Must Socialism become fact before
the mist is dispelled?

AS OTHERS SEE US.

The frank remarks by Mr.. Charles
Wittgenstein, Principal Director of
the Iron Industry Society of Prague,
after a tour of investigation and
study in this country, may be inter
esting to our readers from the fact
that it enables them to see them
selves as others see them in their
industrial relations. His report,
which was published in the Vienna
Neue Ereie PresSe, contains the fol-
lowing;
"The differences between American
and European industry are considerably
less than one would imagine from the
usual descriptions. OF course, one must
not understand by industry the system
of small manufacture which still plays n
great part with us, but is absent in
America, The small operator who in
our country employsa couple of journey
men and an apprentice or two, and who
spends his day in buying his raw materi-
ais and visiting his customers, produces
costlier, because he cannot use machin,
cry, because his own power of labor is
wasted, ana because he occupies his
time with things he does not understand
Such small producers do not exist in
America. There we usually find factor
les, buying their raw material in large
quantities, and using machinery where
ever possible. 1t seems natural that
margins should be small, in proportion
to the sales. The workman remains a
workman, even if he possesses ten times
rs much as many of our employers.
THE busy intelligence displayed in
the adaptation of machinery in America
Is singular, 1t is natural. under these
circumstances, that the American manu-
faCturer does not hesitate at investitures
that would be thrice considered with us
These fortunate circumstances also make
possible specialization in the factories.
such as only appears to us as an ideal.
have previously mentioned machine
factory which turns out 10000 moving
machines. About mile from this one
found another factory which tnrns ont
$4,000 lawn mowers per year; and close
10y came upon an enterprise exclusively
devoted to the manufacture of plows.
This extensive division of labor is only
possible in view of large consumption,
and has the advantage that products can
be made cheaper even under more ad-
verse natural conditions than in Europe
under more favorable conditions"
a favorite remark of the proprie-
tor of one of the largest hardware
factories in America is to the effect
that American workmen turn out
more work than foreigners, and con-
sequently he was willing to pay them
higher wages. OF course, this did
not prevent him from filling his fac
tory with cheap italian iaborers; but
