the next Legislature. Enforced idleness is
terrible punishment and when combined
with confinement almost solitary, can not

problem of providing employment will not be

with only periodical exceptions, we are one
of the most sad, mOrOSe, cadaverOus looking
specimens of humanity in existence. In
view of this explanatory preface, we sim
cerely hope that the reader will not consider
us as saying something remarkably funny
when we quote that the average editors life
is not bed of roses; that our lot in partic-
ular is full of thorns. 1t was only yester-
day that a delinquent subscriber politely in
formed us that he was ''mouty'' glad we are
where we belong, and further added that if
we desired our money, why don't we come
and collect it; besides. he still further says;

hind" We tossed all last night in restless
ness and bitter reproaches over that wicked
letter. We still don't wish to be considered
funny, when we say that as go-as-you-
please contest newspaper subscription list
takes the cake. These delinquents, who
appear destined never even to reach the
half-mile post. entirely overlook the tact
that editors must eat-even though it be
but p. Since our advent to the editorial
chair, we have from the goodness of our
heart compiled dainty book of our sub
scribers' names. but it is with longing regret
that from day to day we are compelled to
scrutnize the space reserved for cash entries.
The go-as- you-please roadsters appear a
long time coming in. However, take note
of our motto. which reads 1T is never too

Kingdoms and intellectual beings of the

pseudo moralists will hold these same
Beings. to whom they grant the undoubted
possession of soul. accountable for their
violations of the laws of our country. This.
TO Cur mind, is not only unfair, uni
and enchristian. but shows want of that
faculty so necessary in our Judgment of our
fellow man-reasOn.
In order to be an accountable being be-
fore the law. man must be capable of distin-
gushing right from wrong; must be able to
reason; must be sane. Then can it be
claimed for an instant, that there is a being
upon the face of the earth who knows the
right from the wrong, but never does, and
olever will do the righto Such a being is
an incorrigible.
AS the term is applied. it might be claimed
that one who violates the laws from choice,
who pursues criminal methods as calling,
who disregards property rights, ETC., is an
incorrigible. Then more appropriate
term had better be applied, for the term in
corrigible does not fill the requirement. In
the application of the word it is made to
cover all forms of habitual criminalty, but
it does not apply to any form of insanity.
Why is this? If there is such a being in or
out of prison as the term would imply. he
is ct subject for the insane asylum. In
fact. if it sought to find an incorrigible we
would advise the seekers to 60 to the asylum
:and not to the prison. for he is not here.
No general term known to our language
can be applied as this term is. One who is
following thieving in any form as all avo-
cation may be distinguished from any other
by saying he is forger. a burglar. a pick
pocket. an allround thief. etc., but when
you seek for general term that will cover
all these and the ravishers and the MUIR

purpose if you would by its application sig

nal is criminal, the further fact that he is
beyond correction.

only false but shows the philosophers to be
utterly ignorant of the subject under con-

A CONUNDRUM.

The labor press is never without copy
of some circular or other calling upon
"your valuable paper to give space to
matter of boycott or strike or lockout,
etc. From accounts that reach us from
many parts of the country it would ap.
pear that many labor papers are allowed
to langnish and die from lack of support
from just such people, who are to be
benefited by the publication of said cir
culars. DO the people who send such
circulars to the labor papers expect the
publishers to run paper in an interest
from which no support is derived: Who
is to maintain press that is arrayed
against powerful influence, both politi-
cally and as to capital, if those in whose
special interest it is published do not

The Central Labor Union Gives an
Exhibition of Its Ignorance.

The delegates of the Socialist Sections
were recently expelled from the Boston
Central Labor Union ON the ground that
the Socialist Labor Party is political
party. This action caused considerable
indignation among the Socialists who,
at large public meeting held at Cod,lan
Hall last Sunday, presented a set of res
olutions denouncing the action of the
Central Labor Union as outrageous I'M
warranted and unprovoked, thanking
their delegates for their unseltish work
in the past, and declaring that notwith-
standing the intolerance and ignorance
displayed by the Central Labor Union,
they would continue their work in the
interest of the trades unions and all other
organizations of labor, including the
Central Labor Union. The resolutions
were adopted by the meeting by large
majority.
After the adoption of the resolutions
Mr.. J. w. Badger delivered a powerful
lecture on ''The Iniquities of the Present
Industrial System" in which he cited
statistics from the United States census
showing the rapid increase of crime, in
sanity, pauperism, prostitution and
drunkenness, and charged this sham
democracy with the crime of deliberately
perpetuating these evils to maintain the
capitalist system. The church and the
press were held up as dishonest and in
league with the upholders of the system
of robbery.

THE RICH MANS FIX.

We should wipe two words from our
vocabulary: gratitude and charity. In
real life, help is given out of friendship,
or it is not valued; it is received from
the hand of friendship, or it is resented.
We are all too proud to take naked gift;
we must seem to pay if in nothing else,
then with the delights of our society.
Here, then, is the pitiful fix of the rich
man; here is that needles eye in which
he stuck already in the days of Christ,
and still sticks to-day, firmer, if possible,
than ever, that he has the money and
lacks the love which should make his ac-
ceptable. Here and now, just as of old
in Palestine, he has the rich to dinner, it
is with the rich that he takes his pleas
ure; and when his turn comes to be
charitable, he looks in vain for recpi-
ent. His friends are not poor, they do
not want; the poor are not his friends,
they will not take. e.-Ftom "Begydrs," IN

who also owed rich man. The hog was

and disputed their progress inch by

numbers and arms. And these were
massacred by thousands in cold
blood by the revengeful d0urgeoisis
the following May.
The Commune brought forward
more than one noble figure, but none
that are more worthy of remem-
brance and honor than
LOUIS CHARLES DELEsCLUZE,
whose portrait adorns our columns.
He was not youth but a man with
grazing hair, become aged in the
service of the revolution. He heed
ed no invitation; "the people arose,
the storm broke" and found him
faithful and fearless at the head of
the fighters. The citizens of his
reimbursement almost unanimously
elected him to the Council of the
Commune who placed him upon the
Executive Committee and finally at
the head of the Council of War.
Wherever he was placed, obscurely
or prominently, he proved himself
careful, energetic, faithful and fear
less, above all suspicion an honest
workman in the service of the
people.
Did he err in his work? Perhaps.
Even Delescluze was not infallible.
But he was irreproachable as a man
of character. Delescluze died the
death of hero in the last days of
the struggle. He did not wish to
survive the defeat of the Commune.
An eye witness relates the circum-
stance as follows.
cat quarter to seven o'clock we
saw Delescluze, Jourde and about
hundred Communists marching in
the direction of the Chateau d'Eau.
Delescluzc was dressed in his usual
habit, black hat, black trowsers and
overcoat. the invisible red sash about
his waist. He was unarmed, and
walked with a cane. We followed
at short distance. When about
fifty metres from the barricade the
guards who accompanied him were
scattered-the air was thick with fly
ing projectiles. Delescluze, without
looking to see that the Others were
with him, marched forward. lie
was the only living person on the
street. When he came to the barri-
cade he turned to the left and mount
ed the paving stones. For the last
time we beheld the earnest, gray
bearded face turned towards death.
Suddenly he disappeared A Yer
sailles bullet had pierced his heart.
ole had confded his intention to
no one, not even his nearest friends.
Silently, his strict conscience only in
confidence, did he step upon the
barricade. The long labor of his
life had exhausted him. He had
but one breath and breathed it. The
Nersalllese sequestrated his corpse,
but his memory will be buried in the
hearts of the people. He lived only
for Justice-the talent, the con-
science, the pole star of his life.
