he may be persuaded to explain the
significance Of his so on.
According TO the writer ,appiica-
lions for charters are already pouring
i'm from every quarter. and he predicts
from this sign that the Social Democ-
racy wiki grow. more rapidly than any
other organization ever started. and
that its spontaneous development and
expansion will be a revelation to the
people, It's. success, he claims, is as
sured from the very beginning.
The work of organizing the gen.
,ral movement is under way, and II is
proposed 60 carry tut the programme
outlined in the Chicago convention in
full. A weekly paper, which viii be
the organ of the party. has been found

verted into a daily newspaper, whose
columns viii be devoted to the exploit

Perhaps the most important deyel-
ODment of the whole scheme is the
determination of Dehs, assisted by
handful of his personal followers, to
give the Social Democracy its first in
PRODUCTION to practical politics in the
municipal campaign in Milwaukee next
spring. a mayor, city treasurer and
city comptroller are TO be elected in
the Wisconsin metropolis The Social
Democracy will organize for the fight,
hold q convention, nominate full
ticker. and then enter upon the cam
paign to win. Debs will personally
take charge of the campaign machin-
cry. and will endeayor TO make good
his boast that his new party will be a
revelation to the people After Mil
waukee. Chicago and a number OF
other cities will ne invaded. The
Congressional campaign of 1898 is ex-
pected to furnish the leader of the
movement a general pretext for calling
out their followers. and they propose
to try and elect a number Of Con-
gressmen OF their faith TO represent
them at the national capital.
