fulfllment according as the men,
bers of the Party individually con-
tribute their abilities.
AS political party the Socialists
have opposed to them all who still
hang with tenacious grip to the
apron strings Of the other political
parties, all who preach that the bal
lot in itself is farce; that all laws
must be destroyed which are reccg-
nized by men, who confuse the peo-
pie and delight the ruling class by
ambiguous phrase-making, using
the words revolution, anarchy, So
cialsm indiscriminately; who de-
claim against all legislation and po-
Itical action. These open and
half-concealcd opponents can do our
Party little harm provided there is
strict discipline in the Party at
large, in the Sections and in the
branches. And even if, as has hap
pened in the past and no doubt will
happen again, here and there an in
discreet, ignorant, or even malicious
individual acts contrary to the con-
sensus Of the organization, it is Just
rs certain that the organization of
well disciplined members will rise
superior to all attacks, be they from
ayowed enemies or pretended
friends.
The Socialist Party as such must
be in condition to act, and act with
precision, under all the various add
verse circumstances in which a MI
norlty party is placed, and as the
Party proves its strength in this re-
spect there will be with each victory
u greater influence at work in favor
of the grand IDEAS which are the
very soul of the militant representa-
tive of Socialism, the Socialist Labor
Party.

ABOUT RIGHTS.

John Lockwood, of Boston, pro-
pounds question which suggests
another:
SIR-What right have the police to in
terfere with or aid the company to Sc
cure hel p in time of strikes? Would
like to know. JOHN LOCKWOOD.
The simple and indisputable an
swer to Johns question as given
here is that the police have no right
at all to help any railroad company
to obtain work people.
But is Mr.. Lockwood under the
impression that a man who desires
to enter the service of any corpora
ton or firm, and who, upon APP.
preaching their office finds himself
confronted and threatened by
another citizen who says he shall not
60 to work, is not entitled to police
protection? Or does Mr.. Lockwood
think, If a car company can man q
car and send it out upon it's route,
that the car and the men who ope-
rate it, and the passengers who may
take seats IN 1t, are not entitled to
police protection, always and to the
fullest extent?
Both OF these cases illustrate pre-
cisely what the police are here for.
Their duty is to see that every man
gets his rights, and that no man
gets more than his rights. And
whoever attempts to interfere vio-
lent]y with those rights must expect
to face the police, sustained by the
overwhelming and irresistible senti-
ment of the community.
The effort to run a labor move
ment on other lines than those that
are established by this fundamental
and necessary rule, must end in fail
ure. 1t would not rest upon a f0un-
dalton of justice, and it could not be
carried forward with that general
sympathy without which no public
enterprise can hope to succeed. Any
one who denies, by word or deed,
these simple and self evident princi-
pies, can have no consideration from
any body of men who hope to pre-
serve, in prosperity or adversely, the
name and character of decent, fair,
sef-respecting citizens.
In every great attempt Of laboring
men to confirm the justice of their
demands, it is the knaves who re-
sort to violence, who step in between
them and the public and check and
pa.alyze all the impulsiye sympathy,
which otherwise would cIeave to the
interests of the workingmen, and
perhaps help them to their desires.

WHAT OTHERS SAY.
IT WON'T WORK,

A bill was introduced in the New
York Legislature last week, based
on Judge Bennet's recent decision
in the sugar refinery case, to pro-
hibit trusts. 1t forbids any agree
ment between corporations or midi
viduals to abstain from production
in their line of business. The pen
atty for domestic corporations is an
uulment of charter, and corporations
from other states transgressing it are
prohibited from doing business in
the State. -Naugatuch AgitatOr.

We may say that socialism claims to
be the economic and social idea of a
vaster movement, which in politics is
democracy, and in ethics means tolera-
ton, humanity and unselfish service to
society: movement which set in long
ago, but whose accommodating effects are
only beginning to be really felt. While
1t proposes first to be a movement for
the deliverance of the poor, the aim of
socialism is towards the renovation of
the entire human society.-Krkup.

NOTES..

M to.
A government Of the people, for
the people and by the people can
on y be realized when socialism is
adopted.
The suicide of the Austrian crown
prince, VINO was doomed to life of
misery if he lived, owing to the re-
suits of his excuses, has given IN
opportunity for the display of fash
lonabIe and ostentatous "grief. D."
The whole nation officially grieyes
over the death of fellow who was a
social nuisance. That's aristocracy.
Sign2r Pecci (known also as the
Pope, Leo XIII, etc. in an encyc-
lical just out says that "Rationalism,
Materalism and Atheism have be-
gotten Socialism, Communism and
Nlhllism, hldeous and deadly
plaques arising necessarily from those
principles" and yet we are per-
suaded that the old fellow knows
better than he "encyclicizes.
When an authorized body formu-
lates and passes a law, that is legis-
latlon. The people should not au-
thorlze incompetents to legisate.
Let them elect competent represcn-
tatlves to formulate proposed laws,
but trust to nothing less than their
own vote to make laws binding.
Legislation is incompetent to the
same extent that Legislators are 80.
Whether infdelity, free-lovism,
anarchism and antl-reformism are
correct or false, in themselves con-
sldered, they are no part, klth nor
kin of socialism. If a man wants to
lnculcate anarchlsm or frec-Iovism
or antl-ref0rmism, etc, let him do
1t as an anarchist, a free lover, an
antl-refOrmIst, etc, and not while
occupying socialist platform and
speaking as an exponent Of social
ism. Y.
The street car employers strike is
over, and the men in both New
York and Brooklyn are looking for
jobs. Many of them succeeded in
securing employment from their
former employers, but at the old
terms, under which they will now
continue the "same demned, horrid
grind. 1t was a cold day when
they went to work again. But they
should nevertheless not let the strike
go without its lesson: The people
must own and control the railroads,
and in order to bring that about in
dependent political action is neces-
sary.
1t is said that distance lends en-
chantment to the view" but in the
case of Professor Garside, at the dis
lance between Chicago and New
York, his activity, as viewed
through the public press of all
shades of anarchist" tendency,
from the Chicago Tribune to the
most insignificant Revolutionary"
Observation-Disclosures sheet, has a de-
cidedly kaleidoscope appearance.

IDEAS AND FACTS.

The development of the Socialist
Party into an active political organi-
cation is Of necessity a slow pro-
cress; but while it is so slow, it need
not be sluggish-it should be delib-
crate; and this the practice of the
referendum is likely to make it. But
the referendum within the Socialist
Party stlpuIates the active interest Of
members in their local party organi-
cations, where individuality may
find influential expression; it stipu-
lates order and discipline.
The holding of economic princi-
piles agreeable to those of the organ
lied socialists by isolated individu-
ais may be tlattering to their capa-
blitles, but the mere possession by
an individual of knowledge is of
little value to the possesSor, and of
no value whatever to the general
public. Intelligent action is what
Is needed, and, az the socialist con-
ceptlon Of society is that it is an Or
ganlsm, socialists will ever have
that "deccnt respect for the opin-
ions of their fellows which prompts
the expression Of their opinions in
and through conccnsus, and their
political acts will be not those of iso-
lated individuals, but of members
of an organization competent to de-
fend It's policy and resting upon the
authority of It's constituency.
The grand ideas con tanned in the
Platform Of the Socialist Labor
Party are useful for propaganda
only so far az they move men to act
as well as to absorb; and action can

MIDDLE CLASS CONVERSATION,

The list Of bankruptcies in the
United States for the last year is
larger and heavier than that for the
year before. Here also bankrupt
ces are said to be increasing. And
If to public failures were added pri-
vato dlsarrangements, the number Of
those even of the middle class who,
under our present happy system,
have all their property conf5cated
without compensation would be very
large. Many, probably most of these
unt0rtunates, have lost their all
through no fault of their own. The
small shopkeeper, who tries for
years to make Roadway, by working
from 6 in the morning until L. at
night, against the large store, the
small employer who struggles to
hold his own against the great fac
tory owner, such people are among
the bltterest opponents of Social
Democracy. Yet they suffer seri-
ously from the fierce competition of
to-day, and at any moment may be
thrown into the ranks of pauperism
by bad times, or by a cooperative
store started near them. 1t is
among this class that we must now
push our propaganda, as well as
among the workers. The stern
logic of facts will help us continu-
ally as capital rolls up into bigger
and bigger masses. Yet the big
capitalists who crush the smaller
men are always talking of the sane
