THERE is a probability that the colony
which Debs means TO establish will never
get beyond the froth period of the pro-
fessional agitator. Debs Is not the man
to take up philantropic work and. fci
low 1t with the qnIet perslstency which
brings success. Notoriety Ia what he
courts, and the very announcements he
makes are more designed TO challenge the
attention of the public than to outline
scheme designed for the good Of his fol-
lowers. He Is actnated more by desire
to advertise himself thah to aId in an act
of benevolence. William Penn proceeded
quietly with his great work and very
prudently refrained from declaration Of
war as his initial act. Debs' letter to
Rockefeller shows the animus of his move
ment. If he was sincere he would not, to
begin with, use his proposed colony as
AL instrument to discredIt Rockefeller, no
matter how desirable that should he.
Su h colony as that proposed by
DebS is an Impossibility. Human nature
precludes it's success. IT. is only self-sac

ont such a scheme. No man who is dong

Debs, who live on the industry of other
people, who will volunteer to go 1t will

have been lived on the theory that the
world owes them living. The poor us

The man who thinks he can better his
present condition by joining the Debs'
movement has already demonstrated the
fact that he is ii failure. If he moves it
is IN the expectation that advantage
enuIes TO him. Such man is poor ore
to help in establishing 60 Operative col

And yet an attempt at colonization
made by Il man who deserves confidence
should receive aid and encouragement.
1t is desirable that the army OF unem-
plOyed shOnld be drawn from the large
cities where idleness leads to viciousness.
Only small percentage of those colon
lzed would remain and dlscouragment
would likely wait on the best efforts of
the promoter. But good would event

the congested condition of cities would

couragement, But any discussion on
this line Is taking Deps too seriously.
