Workmen's advocate. (New Haven, Conn.) 1883-1891, 1889-03-30

Some of our readers express impa-
tlence that We should waste time and
space arguing with anarchists,
single-taxers and other individuals. "
Well, we have some readers who
mistake good-natured fun for argu-
ment. Besides, we never contested
an election with these people-we
have all we can do to argue against
capitalism. But, "a little nonsense
now and them" etc.

What's the difference from an
American standpoint between Ma
tionalism and Socialism,? Let us
turn to Noah Webster's American
Dictionary:
"NATloNALIsM-Q) The state of being
national; national attachment; nation
ality, (2) An idiom, trait or character
peculiar to any people
"SoCIALsM-A theory of society
which advocates more precise, orderly
and harmonious arrangement of the So
cial relations of mankind than that
which has hitherto prevailed"
Workmen's advocate. (New Haven, Conn.) 1883-1891, 1889-03-30

1t is uncertain now what has
most influence with the Chicago Dr.
better ZeitWng-the millionaire clique
of economic pretensions, the "repub-
lican' committee, the democratic"
committee, or the unwashed anar-
chlsts. Hardly the latter, for they
have no money.

The amounts Of the debt long ago
due ana yet unpaid form a study Of
peculiar interest. The total is nearly
$4,000, 600, with 8I53,500 of interest.
Nearly $4,000, with $G2,3G9 ac-
crued interest, making a total Of
$4,000, is still outstanding of
the old debt, contracted at various
periods prior to 1888, and all due
payable prior to January l, 1861.
Some Of this debt was outstanding
before 1915. There is q little amount
-5I,25o, with $22 interest-of
bonds issued in 1877, evidently for
Mexican War purposes These were
twenty-year bonds and were due in
1867. OF a loan connected with the
acquisition Of Texas, due in 1864,
the sum Of 100000 Is unpaid. OF
the $50 and lo4o war loans, on
which the payment OF interest was
stopped eight to ten years ago,
nearly a million dollars still stand
unredeemed. Of 6 per cent. com
pound interest notes, issued in 1861
and Of the 7-3o's, large amounts are
still out. OF fractional currency
there is a sum Of 5,292,62447

time kept on its way with fair measure
Of success. Adverse circumstances finally
gathered about it, and in a few years it
became wholly dormant. The State Grange
authorities did not think SO fine a farming

Grange privileges, and State Deputy Barnes
Was set To the task Of reviving the siumbering

his Efforts by a few earnest men and women
with the result above mentioned. The
