George Ford, of Avenue D and West
Twenty-second street, Centreville, and
Miss Margaret Wardman, of West
Sixteenth street, We're married yester-
day morning in st. Mary's Star of the
Sea, Roman Catholic Church, at Ber-
gen Point. Rev. Father Andrew M.
Eagan officiated. An hour after the
ceremony the bridegroom returned
to the Cosmopolitan House, a re-
sort in Centreville which he
owns, and announced that it was for
sale. He said that his bride possessed
deeply intrenched religious and tenn
perance principles, and ~strenuously
objected to his desire to remain a
liquor dealer. TO please her he in
tends to sell out and contine his atten-
ton to his livery stable and contract
ing business The novelty of Ford's
statement has caused considerable eX-
element among his friends.

A PRACTICAL MEASURE.

The idea of participating at every
opportunity in municipal, State and
congressional elections, is one which
should be as conscientiously adhered
to as are the meetings and elections
within our own organization.
what do you want; o. socialists
are asked; and when they reply by
mentioning the demands of our
Platform, are met with the excla-
nation: why, these are political
demands, and require action at the
hands of the State. Why don't you
vote for what you want:
Now, if the Socialist Party had
remained mere propagandlstic so
ciety, our answer, instead of reas-
surfing the American inquirer, would
simply tend to confirm him in the

view held by 80 many in years gone
by, that socialists were merely I'M
practical dreamers. Now, however,
no matter how small our vote, our
American critics must at least ac-
knowledge that we combine action
with our dreams" and that action
is peculiarly American-we vote as
we talk. Now we can invite our
friends, when We have convinced
them of the reasonableness Of our
program, to join with us and vote
for what we both consider sound
principles and good policy.
There are those who misconceive
entirely the object of the Socialist
Party's participation in the cleo
tions, and the fact that but small
number Of votes are cast at present
sometimes causes ambitious friends
to feel discouraged. Yet when, as
is the case, it is possible for the So
cialist Party's candidatet to receive q
vote greater than the active member
ship of the Sections in any locality,
it certainl y should be matter for
congratulation from disciplinary
point Of view There is no doubt
as to It's efficacy as a means of agita-
ton, for the American pays more
attention to political agitation
than any other. This is well un-
derstood by the great majority of
the Socialist Party, though there
are few among our comrades who
do not comprehend the American
character sufficiently to appreciate
this.
With Il general observance OF our
duties as an active political party,
we doubt not that in a few years
our principles will be so well known
that they will draw into our ranks
the more thoughtful, humanitarian
and patriotic, even, of our fellow
citizens. Let us therefore fully APP
preclate the Importance of what our
people have been in the habit of
considering insignificant local cleo
tlons. Let us remember that the
especial duties involved in political
activity are matters of Party dlscl-
pine, aud good discipline means
progress and victory.

THEY DON'T WANT US TO

1t i'll behOoyes Socialists to fear
the truth, and the Socialist press is
not of the kind that would deceive
its constituents or the public.
Therefore, when the Socialist Party
decided to come before the public as
voting party, they were prepared
to exhibit themselves to the public
in their real voting strength, re-
gardless Of the contempt or ridicule
which might come to their share
from open or secret foes.

WHAT OTHERS SAY.

Compulsory education laws are
receiving attention at present, and
one of this character is being pushed
in Pennsylvania. From reports of
com missioners of education in the
States where such laws are now in
operation it is learned that the law
is not enforced as it should be. Sc
curing the law is only half the bat
tie; the other half is its enforce
ment. And, be it remembered, no
law is more certain of being enforced
IN is entirety than when the people
are ever alert to report violations Of
its provisions. BY applying this
powerful aid to laws that operate for
our well-being, the foreseen results
will accrue much more speedily than
if the law be allowed to take it's
course" unaided. - Craftsman.

lection! The sociaistic editors
of the socialistic newspaper company
know perfectly well that Socialism con-
tends against systems, not persons.
They know just as well as do the mem
bers of the Socialist Party, the Party's
resolution relating to political action.
They have grossly transgressed against
their convictions, against party disci-
pine, and against Socialism. They have
branded themselves"
Unfortunately, what our Buffalo
contemporary says is only too true.
And the German workingmen of
Chicago have perhaps learned
another lesson--let US hope 50, at
least.
1t seems that the theologians can't

little with politics. Look at this:
ROME, April 4.-The Pope will soon

voted chiefly to the question of State
Socialism. His Holiness has been at work
for some time on this important docu-
ment, and has been in frequent consul
tatiOn with eminent Catholic statesmen
and the leading economists of the world
OF course it is to be assumed that
the Associated Press reporter knows
all about Mr.. Pecci's intentions.
And of course if the old man has
been at work upon the promised
"encyclical' very long, it will be
most important; and it will be a
model of clearness, since eminent
Catholic statesmen and "leading
economists have had their worldly
fingers in the pie. 1t seems that
some socialist ought to return the
compliment, and fire off an "ency-
clical' devoted to Romish Theism.
The trouble with the socialists is
that they haven't got crowned and
anointed head to give tone to such a
document. Then, again, they are
probably as ignorant of Romish The
ism as Pope Pecci is of State So.

singular that it should suppose its

was urging the election Of old party

/cit2ng pretend to cater to "social-
ist-thinking' citizens?
The Ioliszeituu6 however, seems
to be of the opinion that the social
ist strength was not represented in
the vote. We cannot see what that
vote represented if it was not the
voting strength of the Socialists of
Chicago who had the right to vote.
Nor can we see why we should be
disturbed at the 81 told you So of
our opponents.
There are many who call them
selves socialists who do not pretend
to support the only political socialist
organization in the country. Some
of them vote the "repubIican"
ticket, and others the democratic.
The Socialist Party is not RESPONSE
bic for this, and the Socialist vote
would certainly not be greater if the
Party had not gone into the election
at all. The Socialist Party has
wisely determined to participate in
the elections, not to parade q fctt-
HouS strength, nor for that matter,
for Sh0w Of any kind, 50 far as it's
opponents are concerned, but for the
purpose of giving those citizens who
desire to do 80 an opportunity to
vote for socialist principles, and for
purposes Of agitation,
This opportunity was given by the
socialists of Chicago, and the results
are not to be looked for in the vote
alone, but in the activity and spirit
which was the accompaniment of
the campaign work, in the begln-
ming which was made in political &C
ton, and in the public discussion
provoked in the daily press.
There are those in the Socialist
Party, happily very small minor
ity, who would have the Party con-
fine its activity within the boundar-
les of II debating club and non-polit-
ical propagandistlo society. These
will undoubtedly find excuses for
opposing the Party's political action.
But the Socialist Party has decided
to place itself in line with the needs
of the time, and to furnish q practl-
cal method for WjrhiHg and acting
for socialism. If the socialist sentl.
mcnt is not to find practical express
sion, why our agitation ?
Then again, if the two newspapers
referred to were really influential
and useful rs socialist papers, how IS
it that their daily appearance for
years has not produced greater prac-
teal results? Surely they must feel
the force of this view of their case.
Our comrades in England have
adopted the same political tactics,
and they have, under more favor
able circumstances, perhaps, sue
cdeded in electing u few of their
nominees. But they have also beer
active in their propaganda in other
directions. This must not be neg
lected here, and it will not be, fol
the regular participation IN the cleo
tons has been and will be an incent
i've to greater activity between cleo
tons. Let the Socialist Party go or
in It's good work, and the results il
votes will also augment.
