revenge of the socialist-the only
truly socialistic revenge for evil.
of bloody violence. or lawless. or
by distortion Of law through pref
udice and hate begotten of slander
and Misrepresentation.
Violence and bloodshed are
contrary to the nature and genius
Of socialism-its principles are
summed up in the expression,
"Peace on earth and good will to
men"-to be effected by universal
cooperation for the universal
good.
If socialism is not able by the
strength of its inherent principles
to make its way in the world by
appealing to the reason and ethical
judgement of men, it is not worth
having. and would only prove a
curse to society if we had it. For
myself, though a socialist by con-
viction of reason, after long
thought and investigation, am
free to say that if by the mere act
of turning my hand l could in
troduce in full play a socialistic
system of society, l would not do
so until | we're satisfied that the
people were prepared by reasona-
BILE conviction of the propriety and
desirability of that system, in
view of the best good of all. To
attempt to force socialism upon
an unprepared and unwilling peo-
pie were the acme of absurdity
and folly.
The signs of the timepoints un-
mistakably tothe advent of social
ism-the trend of societary move
ment is full in that direction, its
bitterest and most prejudiced op-
posers are unwittingly helping the
evolution forward. Were intelli-
gent socialists to keep silent and
merely look on and watch the
workings of things, the logic of
events will bring society surely to
the socialistic basis in due time.
All that we can do is to hasten
the incoming by little education
and give the people somewhat of
intelligent preparation for it. 1t
is comling-it will come as soon as
society is ready Tor IT; peaceaDle
suason, reason, appeal to ethical
principle, will hasten the advent;
violence, bloodshed. inhammatory
appeals, can only incite prejudice
and hate, spread misconception
of the true import of socialism,
and indefinitely retard the evolu-
tion of society to the proper con-
condition for its full establishment.
Violence is unsocialistic, destruct-
i've and unsocietary in its nature;
and society has ever the right to
defend and protect itself against
unsocietary acts and methods.
The less violence, in speech or
methods. is used or advocated, the
more speedy will be the march of
society towards the realization of
the grand ideals of socialism.

| see it stated in your paper
that those ministers in Denver
who once were somewhat out
spoken on the labor question have

or things founded on fact, that
every effect must have a cause.
This is contrary to the Christian
system which is wholly founded
on faith. No matter how great
the absurdity, the reason may re-
coil from it, all the facts indeed
may point IN another direction;
but it is quietly taken in like the

PROGRESS is BEING MADE.
Some Pertinent Crsticisms Of the
Church snd Modern SO-called
Religion.

Progress ali along the line. The
Credit Foncier company has been
suffering from what ne theolo-
gians would call an eclipse of faith,
but is now coming into a better
state of mind and feeling. The
colony is beginning to feel its
foothold, has secured a good farm
on the Fuerta river. Our people
have turned over a new leaf, and
instead of enjoying apleasant and
extended picnic in this fine eli
mate, as many thought to do, all
hands are now busy in planting
crops on the farm which, if we
have a favorable harvest, will
yield an ample amount of grain
and vegetables to make the COL
ony self supporting and independ-
ent of outside help, with the ex-
oeption of wheat for bread and
some clothing, such as is neces-
sary-overalls, shirts, shoes, etc.
and to furnish us with tools and
material needed for our various
industries. 1t is yet a question
whether or not we can raise wheat
for bread down on the river, but
our farmers are now planting and
will test whether it be possible or
not.
The Credit Foncier company
will yet solve the problem of labor
and capital, both working together
in harmony, each receiving its due
reward, and not as it is with you,
capital taking all and labor bare
subsistence as a starvation wage.
Those of you who have thought
that the labor question would
soon be settled in the United
States have miscalculated your
strength and the power of money
to control the situation. Capital
has been many years strengthen
ing its outposts, and will not read
lily give up the citadel to the in
vaders. 1t has been throwing up
earth works and entertainments to
strengthen its position, and to
hold the fortiication it has already
built and made strong for itself.
If the workers are wise they will
rally to the support of such COM
panies as the Credit Foncier of
Sinaloa, the Puget Sound colony
and the Kaweah Cooperative
colony of California, and kindred
institutions, as many will not be-
lieve until their eyes shall see the
only way their salvation can be
made an established fact. | for
one am proud to stand among
those who are thus earnestly con-
tending for the Socialistic faith
which is destined to overcome all
opposition, as it has truth and
righteousness on its side.

EFFECT OF POLITICS.

Presidential Campaigns rs Successful Ma
tiOnal Educators.
A political campaign serves as
great National university, where all
the citizens are pupils. 1t is power
full educating influence. and of itself
serves to make the citizens of re-
public more intelligent than the SUBJ
jects of an absolute or monarchical
government.
A sense of responsibility is perhaps
the most powerful educating influence
that can be brought to bear upon
human being. The responsibility of
the suffrage has done as mach for the
enlightenment of the American people
as any other element of our civiliza-
ton. To a certain extent it devolves
the policy of the Government upon the
individual citizen, and, in small way,
to be sure, makes every artisan and me-
chanic statesman. So the response
bility of casting q ballot involves q
knowledge of political science, the fun
damental principles of economic policy,
and knowledge of the financial, in
dustrial. and commercial condition of
the country. The consideration of
these subjects, their promiscuous dis
cussion, and the controversies and ar
guments they arouse give to every one
participating in them general intelli-
gence.
Aman can not take an interest in our
political campaigns and remain long
an ignorant man. A voter that con-
siders the result of his ballot, and the
bearing it may have on our National
legislation and the moulding of our
Governmental policy, must be an intel
Egent man. There should be no such
thing as an ignor ant voter.-Tamkes

A Indiana doctor has recently discovered
IN common weed whose medicinal qualities
have never before been suspected, vain
able remedy for bowel disorders.
There Is nothing particularly strange
about this fact.
Nothing.
And yet the very simplicity Of tho new
discovery would, with some, seem to throw
Just doubt upon its power. To make it one
has only to pour hot water over the leaves
Of the plant. In its preparation no vast
chemical works and appliances are 10
quired.
Is It to be wondered at since such plainly
prepared remedies are accounted q Of such
great merit in these days, that such
wonderful results attended our grand
mothers, whose teas and infusions Of roots
and herbs and balsams, have exerted 90
great an influence in the maintenance Of
health and lifei
Certainly not!
The greatest pieces Of machinery strike
US most by their exceeding simplicity.
The secret Of the success Of grand
mothers remedies was their freshness and
simplicity. Every autumn found the little
Log Cabin abundantly supplied with fresh

away for use Dreadmg to call q doctor be-
cause Of the expensiveness Of his far-made
trips, they Immediately gave attention to
the disease and routed 1t before It had
gained a foothold.
The old Log Cabin grandmother, in cap
and high tucked gown, and perchance be-
specialized in rough silver, her weary feet
encased in ''hum made'' slips, Is the dear
sweet nurse who rises to the view Of many
a man and woman today as the early years
Of life pass in retrospect.
The secrets of grandmother's medicines
were rapidly being forgotten and the world
was not growing in the grace Of good
health. To restore the lost art Of log cabin
healing has been for years the desire Of
well-known philanthropist in whose ances-
trail line were eight "goodly physicians" Of
the old style, men who never saw medical
college save in the woods, nor q '.medical
diploma" except that inscribed on the faces
Of healthy and long lived patients. Much
time and money was expended in securing
the old formula, which to-day are put forth
as "Log Cabin emedies''-sarsaparilla, hops
and buchu, cough and consumption, and
several others, by Warner, whose name Is
famous and q standard for medical excel
lence all over the globe. These oldest, new
est and best preparations have been recog-
niZed as of such supereXcelleuce that to-day
they can be found with all leading dealers.
When Col Ethan Allen was making his
tory along our northern frontier during the
revolution, Col Seth Warner, the fighting
Sheridan of that army, who was skillful
natural doctor, used many such remedies,
notably like the Log Cabin extract, sarsa-
parilla and cough and consumption remedy,
among the soldiers with famous success.
They are noble Inheritance which we of
to-day may enjoy to the full, as did our fore
fathers, and using, reap, as did they, the
harvest Of a life full Of days and full Of use
