THE AIMS OF PoPuLiSM.

To the Editor: Many people sympath.ze
with Popuiism because they believe II to
be a reform movement. Many think 1t
Identical. or nearly identical, with the Old
Farmers Alliance. an organization which
had no Objectionable principles. In fact
Popul.sm, as explained by its leaders when
they explain IL at all. is essentially a
soc.aEstic organization. aiming-as all
socialism does-at the adjustment of all
private ownership in land and the instru-
ments of production.
The home of Populism Is IN Kansas, and
We may look to the Populst leaders OF

This statement by Judge Doster. who is
certainly a competent authority, very
clearly defines the essential character of

Karl Marx was leader of the German
against individual ownership of property.
Louis Blanc wrote book to prove that
property Is the great scourge of society"
Rousseau held and advocated the same
views.
In another speech Mr. Doster declared
that rent is robbery. that a wage-earner
does not sell his labor but sells himself.
that money IS useless. that there can In
