HELLOi

Like the man who felt so glad to
get back that he was glad he went
away, | am glad to greet the
readers of the PEOPLES VOICE,
What matters it that never met you
personally before? | have met other
men, who, like you, were seekers Of
of the truth, and sensible enough to
act accordingly when they found the
way.
Some smart alec will tell you that !
have worked upon both Democratic
and Republican papers. Yes; like you,
readers, | worked for my bread and
had to accept the first job that Pre-.
Sented itself.
| was also born too young to vote
and whatever my varying scnti.
ments in youth, | had neither power
nor sense to apply them. l have
been learning some things-and ex.
pect to learn more.
Had | been brought up in the LAP
Of luxury | might have been a help
less lap-dog. But the Saw-teeth Of
adversely have taught me to feel fol-
the great mass of tOilerS who are
compelled to fight for the mere priv
lege Of existence, not to speak of Z
fair share in the products of theil
labor.
Call it prejudice, who will. A mar

sets poor table. Mere observers O.
life are only visitors of earth. anC
have little utility in the great organ
lzation of humanity. No doubt it i.
a good thing to sOOthe sickness. but
it were better tOcure it.
The newspaper business is my pro
fession and, when free to choose,
shall always be found working eithe
with the Peoples party, or anothe
with similar objects. The conteS
may sometimes drive mo into a cor

Workingmen, you are yourselves re-
