LABOR'S INCENTIVE.
(Annie BeSdnt, in London Justice. )
 (CoucludCd.)

(COuCludCd.(
 The idea that men will only work, or work their best, under the con- stant fear of starving if they slacken their exertions, Is one which is op- posed alike to reason and to experi- ence. It may be admitted that many forms of manual labor directed to the production of commodities ne- cessary to sustain life are of the na- ture of drudgery, monotonous and unlnterestlng; whereas work that engages the intellectual creative faculty is accompanied by a feeling of delight which renders the labor it's own reward. Just because much of the work of production Gin the marrow sense of the word is dull, everyone should have his or her share of 1t. We all consume the necessaries of life, and the loftiest brain-worker of us all has the same lowl ly bodily needs as the most un- skilled laborer. Surely 1t is grossly unjust that one class should arro- gate to itself the "higher" work, the mental labor, always rewarded with pleasure, and throw on to another all the duller and less inter- esting tasks, calmly assuming that it is to have it's bodily wants sup piled by others, without lending a finger itself in aid. There may oc- casionally be some surpassing genius whom it may be worth Society's while to keep in exchange for work that he alone can do, and if so, let us by all means keep him; but I take leave to doubt whether the lof tiest of them all would be any the worse for dscharging his quota of manual work. The only incentive needed to produce the necessaries of life will be the imperative need of them, and when no man can com- pei his neighbor to provide for him he will, willy-nilly, be obliged to provide for himself. But even Tn dealing with such work we must not overlook the desire for his fellows approval and good will, the force of public opinion felt by every normal man, and this, where needed, will reinforce the stern pressure of nat ural necessity.
 The incentive to the forms of work that call into play the creative faculty, the intellectual and artistic capacities of the human brain, is, as we have suggested, the delight of the work itself. There is no need to force the artist to paint, the sculptor to model, the scientist to experiment, the thinker to write: spurred by hunger they do their second-rate, not their irst-rate work: they manufacture "pot-boil- CTS" instead of creating master pieces. For the perfect work of the artist needs leisure, and patient ex- pertinent and quiet thinking, and even fanciful dreaming; and all

The conflict is not between the ideal and the real, between Utopia and Utili- taria, but between ignorance and intelli- g ace, darkness and light, falsehood ard truth, between the rule of the sabre and the rule of the pen, between dog matic assertion and scientific demonstra. tion, between divine right, so-called, and human right to live, to love, to labor and to enjoy.-J.

dividual possesses and the indiyid- ual controls. This has been rccOg- nized as important by the pioneers of "co-opcration' as 1t was under stood in Germany and England thirty or forty years ago, and when the cooperative societies were eStab- lshed the leaders in the movement thought they had solved the labor question. Nevertheless, that QucS
 tion is more pressing than ever. The fact is that their idea of cooperation was far too narrow and limited to accomplish the emancipation of the working people even without the de- velopment of modern means of pro- duction. To be sure, their eXpcr- ment has not been entirely in vain 1t has served as a means of convey
 ing the knowledge of chow not to do it'--yes, and more, it has hel ped to suggest the right course to be fol- lowed. Possession of the means of production simply settled the qucs- tion for those who possessed as long as that possession lasted; but the People still remained subject to the owners of land and capital.
 The Socialist movement aims further and encompasses ill it's scheme the absolute possession of the means necessary to life and the pursuit of happiness by the People. But in order to bring this about the people must have knowledge of their right to possess, and it is therefore the present duty of the Socialists to call the attention of the people to the issue in the most ef- fectlye manner, Organized effort being most potent, they have organ. ized for the purposes set forth in their platform, and in order tc spread their ideas they have used the press and the rostrum. But they have not always pOSsessed these means. They have borrowed them, or they have, as possessing indiyldu. sls or groups, voluntarily served the Party. But since the Party as a Party were not the possessorS in these instances, their control as a Party was limited to the extent of the good will of the real possessors.
 Later on the Party found 1t necos- sary to have means for agitation and propaganda under its complete con trol, and the establishment of two regular weekly papers and a pub- fishing house was accomplished Thus through concentrated effort the Party can control not only these means of agitation, but can also di. rect the policy to be pursued. Now a demand is made for daily news. paper which is to represent socialist ideas and enhance the socialist prop aganda. Again, the Socialist Labor Party will find that in order to bt able to control such an i'm portan mouthpiece, 1t must poSSeSS It. Tn, Party must be competent to say il what city such daily paper shall b' published, and what it's policy shal be. The more influential the dail press, the greater the necessity fo

OH PSHAW !

Now that the election Is over it will not do for revenue reformers to let up agitatlng Congress will again meet next month, and it be- hooves all who are in favor of free raw material to keep the matter be- fore the public. We should all bear in mind that protective tariff reduces wages by limiting the de- mand for production. It increases the cost of material on which mil lions might be proftably employed in a great variety of industries, and shuts out our producers from the markets of the world, thereby ne- cesSarlly limiting the employment of labor. Production being re- stricted here by protection, fewer workmen are employed, and the number. therefore, on the profits of whose Ia Dor the manufactu rers grow rich, is much less, and the profit on the work of each laborer Is greater than would be possible without the tariff.
