A Prominent Cotton Buyer Dies Sud
denly In the Presence of His Family.
At 8 o'clock last night Mr.. +. L. Topp,
a prominent cotton buyer, while sitting
with his family in the drawing-room Of his
residence on Rayburn avenue, suddenly
fell forward in his chair. Kind hands
flew to his relief and conveyed him gently
to convenient lounge, but all their
tender ministrations were unayailing; he
was already dead before relief could reach
him. The cause OF his death is said to
have been heart disease.
Mr.. Topp was fifty years old at the time
OF his death, and has long been identified
with the cotton interests Of the firm OF II.
l.. Topp & Co., OF which he was the found
er and head. He enjoyed an enyiable
reputation in the commercial world as a
man OF the strictest integrity and the high
est sense of honor, and his upright and
honorable business methods won for him
the confidence ami esteem OF u lucrative
clientele. His death will be a notable loss
TO the Cotton exchange, OF which he was
an honored member.

public industry. But as a matter of
fact the same line of ratiocination
which brings the railroad and tele-
graph companies within the scope Of
the definition of public necessities
will bring in hundreds of other in
dustries. The sewing machine is
public necessity, many of the great
bridges of the country have become
necessities, there are steamboat lines
which are necessities, street car lines,
and so on m infnilum, even to the
bakery and butcher shop. But it
vii. remain with the people to say of
what they will and of what they will
not take control. If it is the duty
of the people to take and conduct
public industries which are misman-
aged and by means Of which private
fortunes of harmful immensely are
being built up at popular expense, II
is also their right to permit to 90 on
under individual control those in
dustrles, not of paramount necessity,
which are managed with due regard
for the popular wellbeing. Further
more. it would come well within the
province of the people to assume con
troll of necessary public industry,
which, though it served its patrons
fairly, cut in at the other end by
making the greater part Of its profit
at the expense of the people who
made its material or operated It's
service. With this right practically
demonstrated there would be an end
to railroad slaughters as the result of
an oyerworked telegraph operator
falling asleep, there would be meat
on the laborers' table, more intelli-
gence and fewer lines of anxiety on
the worker face; fewer bedraggled
women streelins through the streets;
fewer people in Jail; fewer children
in the cutters and more in the
sch0Olroom; more manhood and
more womanhood everywhere and
more of that genial love of kind for
lack of which the inequalities Of life
are what they are to-day. For
high type of manhood begets man
hood of still higher type, and the
beginning of pure democracy, in
which there shall be neither master
nor slave, is in Justice. And JUS
tice is the right of the people to gov
ern themselves and hold their own.

movement is considered, but the goal
is never lost sight of.
cone step at a time" is well
enough, but there must be n direc-
ton to the labor movement, and the
steps must be taken forward, towards
the desired end; and in order to
know whether any step is step in
the right direction one must know
in what direction the goal is.
TO demonstrate this the Socialist
Labor Party lives ard works, and its
labOrs are not in vain. Let the

in "a fair days wages for u fair days

uncertain one, and is now far in the
rear. One step in the right direction
is to know that "Labor creates all"
wealth; and another step is to know
that chose who perform all labor
and create all wealth should enjoy
the product Of their toll; then, an
other step is to know that this is

ATHRUsT AT TRUSTS"

This time it is the Iowa Legisia-
ture. The ocean Of progress is to
be kept back by page or two of
statutes No corporation can be-
come party TO pool or combina-
ton designed to regulate Or fix the
price of oil, coal, lumber, grain,
flour, etc. "Irusts' are to be treated
as consplracies and those responsible
for them are to be held accountable
as conspirators against the State.
These wise men of the West say
there is no reason why conspiracies
of capital should be treated more
tendcrly than other combinations.
Very true, indeed, But why "trusts'
only? Iowa is plastercd all over with
mortgages and there are tens of
thousands of other devices in that
State by which capital robs and tor
lures Labor. Why not repeal the
incorporation laws? Why not make
usury a criminal offence? Why
But what is the use asking these cold
water hypocrites practical questions
They knew when they were Cabling
about this proposed law that if it
went through all the legislative
stages it would be as effective as the
Popc'S bull against the comet. 1t is
"A brazen bid for Labor votes and is
such transparent fraud that it will
not deceive even the "mucks."

WHAT OTHERS SAY.
CAMPAIGN THUNDER.


Congress is manufacturing its
campaign thunder on the tariff issue,
and doing nothing whatever to bene-
fit the industrial interests of the
country, not that the tariff would
not be better for u little patching,
but there are far more important
issues. Readjusting the tariff will
not take the bank Tax off business;
it will not release the farmers of this
country from the incubus Of their
mortgages; it will not.put the,miI-
lions of idle men to work at produc-
tive industry again; it will mott lido a
thing toward solving-the great prob
lem Of transportation; in short, this
tinkering with the tariff at this time
is as sensible as it would be for a
ships crew to be scrubbing the deck
when they ought to be manning the
pumps and hustling for dear life.
But it is because it keeps congress
from doing anything for the people,
that the Demo Republican monopol-
lists have given the order to their
tools in Washington to stir up the
tariff and throw dust in the peoples
eyes. -t2ereland Workman.

PUBLIC OWNERSHIP.
An Illustration Of the Trend of Pub
lie Thought.

There is no reasonable objection
to men holding us much wealth as
their thrift may enable them to save
from honest earnings; but there is
strenuous objection to their using
that wealth to inhibit others from
being thrifty and from enjoying the
fruits Of rightfnlly directed energy.
The great public industries of the
day are legitimately machines in the
public service, supposedly operated
for the benefit of the people. These
industries cannot be 50 operated
when the wealthy individual, or cor
poration, is accorded the power
through the possession of wealth of
making them the means of compel
ling poverty in the employees and
submitting the people at large to
such Inconvenience rs may best serve
the private interest Of the control of
the industry. Under private owner
ship great public industries accept
ing the railroads and telegraph lines
as the most salient eXamples-are
simply the means of building great
private fortunes. The privileges ac-
corded by the government are moth
ing more than licenses under which
the public industry becomes personal
property. The service of the people
is purely preteXt. They get precise
ly as much service as is consistent
with the largest possible gain to the
owner Of the industry, and the rela
ton of the owner to the public is the
relation of penurlous farmer TO his
cow-he will give her just as much
food as will enable him to milk her
proftably and no more; he will give
the attendant who feeds her
just as little as the mans
necessity may compel him to take,
and, when the COW is dry
and the man is sick, the four-footed
animal goes to the SHAMELESS and the
two-footed animal to the almshouse.
Under private ownership public in
dustries necessarily cannot be of the
highest public service. Every mo.

THEIR OWN OX'S TURN,

1t has doubtless been source of
surprise to many observers of the
drift of public opinion to notice the
bitterness with which many thor
oughIy capitallstic newspapers have
lately assailed the combines. News
papers which twelve months ago were
always to be found on the side Of
every monopoly, no matter how obi
Gus or UNI Just, have suddenl y acquired
new light on the relations between
the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. and the wealth
producers and join in the popular
cry for Legislative interference with
the exactlons Of the ringsters. Many
of the articles now appearing in the
columns of the daily press regarding
the combines are Of a character which
would a short time ago have been
considered decidedly "socialistic. y"
A circumstance has recently trans
pred which may throw some light
on this remarkable change of front.
Some of the combines, it appears,
have bound their members not to do
any advertising. This, of course,
hits the capltalistic newspaper right
where it lives. The refusal to ad-
vertise is the natural and logical con-
clusion of the combine system.
Why should the members of u trust
who have agreed to pool their pro-
duction and divide profits, 90 to the
expense of advertising? 1t issimply
throwing money away 1t will not
increase the total sales, as the public
will not buy more than they want,
and as they have a common interest
IN the profits, no matter which es-
Establishment does the business, why
should they keep up the costly meth
DDS Of the competitive system? If
the capitaIistic editors had not been
among the most stupldly short
sighted of mortals, they might easily
have foreseen this result. 1t is no
wonder that now they are feeling the
withdrawal of patronage they are be-
ginning to antsgonize the combines.
But it is too late. The best days of
capitalistic journalism are over. As
cooperation among capitalists takes
the place of competition, advertising
will decrease, and as the receipts
from this source fall off, the class of
venal journals, whose editorials are
dictated from the counting room,
will begin to discover that their syco-
phancy to the money-bags is unprotit-
able. The situation is very sug-
gestlve one. -CdAalian LaJOr Re-

ASSORTED ENEMIES.

1t IS not to be wondered at that
anarchists and "democrats' and ore
publlcans should oppose the socialist
element in the labor movement.
The former are opposed to anything
but anarchy, and the latter are too
well satisfied with their chances for
party Doodle to part with their re-
spective political feeders, or, to speak
plainly. bribers. District -, X. of
H., of Chicago, contains these antag-
onistlc clements, and that explains
the action of said District in with
drawing It's delegates from the Chi
cago Trade Assembly,
We cannot see why anarchists
should continue members of any
Wchiro2 organization like trades
union or K. Of l., assembly, unless
it IS for the purpose of breeding dis
union and inducing disintcgration,
in which case they are simply dis
honest when they take upon them
selves Obligations to obey laws and
governments. Such people are the
ones that "demo,utic" and "repub-
lican" otlicc-hoIders 10y virtue of
their influence in labor organiza-
tionS) very naturally combine with
to defeat the objects of the laGor
organizations,
In this connection it is we'll for
Socialists to remember that the PEG
Pile will not advance towards Social
ism any faster than they acquire a
knowledge Of sound political econ
omy, and the presence of schcm.ng,
glb-tongucd disorganizers in labor
organization can do much towards
hindering the bulk of the members
from acquiring such knowledge, by
tilbustering methods such as the
spreading of calumnies and creating
suspicion against those who would
assist evolution 10y advocating the
most democratic methods of organi
cation and procedure.
Both Republican" and "demo.
cratic" Office holders and anarchists
should be left TO their own resources
by the organized workmen. Whel
labor organizations are formed which
will not tolerate their presence, they
will lose their power to do evil
This idea could be carried out with
out depriving either set of knave
or fools of all the rights to whicl
any of them reasonably can lay claim
and even an anarchist can hardl
claim the right of membership in
socialist organization, be 1t a trade
; union or a Section of the Socialis
Labor Party.
