AN EDUCATIONAL QUESTION.

The Dispatch, of Montgomery,
Ala, is very much exercised and in
terested in the effort to disfranchlse
ignorance by prescribing an educa-
tional qu LITIGATION for voting. 1t
gets excited and fairly raves over the
subject. If it is so much in dread
of ignorant suffrage and so DESTROYS
for the State to "pfescrlbe' an edu-
cstional qualification for voters, why
does it not do something in the way
of urging the State to "provide' an
educational quality IN the voters?
Instead of Furnishing the ignorant,
why not enllghten them? Why
wrong voters in their youth, by rear
ing them in ignorance, and then roo
them of the ballot in later life ?
Close the doors of the schools to
them in childhood al then close
the polls to them in manhood by
way of compensation. Affecting
them with the curse OF lncapaclty IN
youth and stamping them with the
badge of inferlorlty wnen full grown.
Far better for Alabama to enlarge
her schools than contract the dimen-
slons of her ballot boxes. If she Is
DESTROYS of having intelligent voters,
she must give them an elementary
education. so that they may be en-
abled to continue the process of self
education and progress through life.
TO prescribe an educational quaif-
cation would be as dishonest and
unjust as 1t be practically ineffective
for good. 1t would be almost as
useless as to Jaint the ballot box

wealth of the owners of capital,
payers of profits, and consequently
under the domination of a class
whose power they augment by their
unremunerated service.
The trouble with these schools of
land reformers is that they fail to
recognize society as an organism in
It's entirety. They still cling to the
individualistic idea, exalting the
"rights " of individuals above the
interests Of society. They would
have the individual reform society
instead Of recognizing the effect Of
environment and the educatlve in
nuence of law rs do the Socialists,
who would establish social conditions
under which the individual would
have the natural opportunities neces-
sary to the enjoyment of life and
liberty and the attainment of happi-
ness as the real end in view.
The public ownership of land
would make land free in the only
sense in which it can be free-free
from private control. But the So
ciallst Party does not stop here. The
entire abolition Of the wage system
and the establishment of corpora
tive system which also stipulates the
public ownership of the means of
production, and the control and regu-
lation of production and distribu-
ton, in addition to the public owner
ship of land, must become facts
before the laborer shall enjoy the
full fruits of his labor, and be as
free as it is desirable and possible to
be.
Free land" then, is but a sub
ordinate question. 1t is the freedom
of man that we strive for; the eman-
cipation of humanity from the tolls
of false system; freedom to i'm
prove natural opportunities, and free
dom to expand and grow into n
higher civilization.

WHAT OTHERS SAY.

( The hardest bow to the Chinese

Of the people to American laundries.
For a time the white washerwomen
and laundreymen were almost COM
pletely driven out of business, but
now they are very numerous and new
laundry shops appear on all sides.
Their return appears to have been

DECLARE AN AMNESTY.

While it IS true that there are but
few men who can not, from a fnan-
cial standpoint, keep their dues paid
up in labor societies, yet there is a
small element who from one reason
or another have fallen behind, and
who are yet men that it is desirable
to retain.
Irtphe inauguration of the great
.1honHhour movement it is essential
Ahat4ll who can shall stand up to- he
Tounted. Would it not be Il good
thing for the organizations of this
vicinity who have suffered a depIe-
ton of their ranks to consider the
proprlety of issuing circular calling
together all old members who have
fallen off, and reinstating them upon
payment of a small sum?
Many of what are now the strong
est organizations have at some time
in their history been compelled to
resort to this methCd, and have
found it productive of good results.
IL would be good thing if the
necessity for such action did not
arise, but if it is necessary it should
be performed. Labor Leader.

EIGHT HOUR MOVEMENT.

OF course we are in favor of re-
ducing the hours of Labor; of course
to wrest from capitalists more and
more of the benefits which Labor
has created for mankind. If, how
ever, Socialist tactics do not agree
in every respect with those Of the
trades unions and their more con-
sentative methods, it is because So
Clallsts aim at a more radical and
lasting reformation of society, in
yolying the entire abolition of cap
itallsm and wage slavery, even
though meanwhile we aim to assist
in all efforts tending towards the
true goal, using those means which
experience teaches are the most eff
fective. The following translation
from Der SO2iahH discusses one Of
the trades union Utopias which Or
ganized labor will have to deal with
presently:
'As we expected from the first, the
Convention of the American Federation
of Labor did not succeed m reaching
even the altitude of the recent London
Labor Congress.
However stubbornly the English
trades unions endeavored to remain free
from the slightest suspicion of leaning
towards Socialism, one thing is certain,
namely, that in the most conservative
English trades unionists there is still a
deal of class consciousness, a greater
knowledge of social conditions than in
the skulls of the most radical portion of
the delegates at Vne st. Louis Conven-
ton. Not single delegate there had
the courage to ask himself whether or
not it is possible to establish the eight
hour workday through private action,
as again the capitalists, instead of
through the State 10y political action,
"lndeed, we admire the compliment con-
tidence which animates the tenth of the
working class of America, organized as
they are in rival organizations, in re-
peatedly attempting to attain the eight
hour workday through trades unions
methods.
1--WE are fully aware that the Ameri-
cans do not easily accept the foreign
ers' mode of contest as exemplary; for
nj
different conditions. But is it not about
time that the native working class
should learn that only through indepen.
dent political action can the condition OF
the laboring lass be improved, even al
present?
