Another Crank Poet,

Another candidate for public favor
has bobbed up OIL the literary horizon
and he will doubtless be feted and
fawned upon by morbid readers as
many of his predecessors have been
before him, and after playing a few
antics he will be laid away to be for
gotten by his admirers. He has al
ready gone up like rocket, but he is
bound to come down like stick, and
when he falls, it will in the mud.
This literary crank is none other than
an Englishman whose high sounding
name is Rudyard Kipling.
1t takes only six miserable lines of
his doggerel to stamp his character as
a man and fix his standard as q poet.
In his "Seven Seas" admired, for a
wonder by sickly readers, occurs the
following stanza:
hb any pOuy bccu Dill hWklub!
Now 'Ow in the devil would know?
'Es taken my girl out walkin'
And Eve got to tell him 80.
Gawd bless i'm
I've got tell him So"
The mimesis he perpetrates in the
spelling of the name of God, is enough
to consfgn him to eternal condemna-
ton in the eyes of all who love the
pure and beautiful. One of his ad-
mirers goes SO far as to make him
L" the greatest poet that ever wrote in
the English language; and some OF
his Yorkshire friends are deploring the
fact that he was not made Poet
Laureate to succeed Tennyson instead
of the present incumbent.

competence, or wealth, we lose sight of the duty
of helpfuntss. 1t is greater charity to bre
vent want than to relieve when we take in the
whole field, just as he is the greatest physician
who prevents disease
Socialism surpasses the Good Samaritan"
in that it would have no thieves and no wound
ed travelers--the one to punish, and the other
to heal of the wounds made by the thief. Here
in we have the true spirit of republics. We
have interdependence in the form and we
want interdependence i'll the spirit, which
means opportunity for all.
Socialism would substitute the standard of
excellence for the standard of greed. When eX-
celence is aimed at, then will come the "chiv
airy of labor and love of labor" because labor
will then be unlnixed benelcence 1t will have
other reward than that of mere qualification of
appetite aud greed, and its blessings will leave
behind no curse and no long trail of blood drawn
from wounded fellow beings.

SOCIALISM.

Recently, Washington GLADDEN. talked to the
State University graduates on "True Socialism. ="
There was an immense audience in attendance
He said that, III the 'discordant ideas mingled
under that name, there were some wholesome
sentiments and reasonable aims.,'
We assert that it is the "wholesome senti-
ments and reasonable aims'' that constitute
true socialism, That is wholesome sentiment
that sympathzes with the toiling millions who
struggle hard for bare existence, and that is
a reasonable aim that would devise the ways and
means to make life tolerable, and far as posi-
BILE, happy to all worthy human beings.
GLADDEN. is only using other terms for broad
er humanity.
Following Mr. GLADDEN. furthur, we find the
announcement of the truths not generally known,
that there is no agreement between Anarcey and
Socialism except as to their opposition to exist
ING conditions. In remedies, the Socialist and
Anarchist are as wide apart as night and sum
light. The other truth is the spread of Social
ism among all classes.
If Socialism is wholesome and reasonable, it
ought to spread. Every lover of the human
race ought to be a Socialist. Doubtless there
are thousands of people who are Socialists
in sentiment who are afraid of the name
Discordant ideas lrighten conservative people,
and disco1dant ideas often proceed from the
enemies of Socialism.
The enemy sowed tares in the wheat while
the husbantlman slept. The enemies OF the lu-
man lace are continually sowing tares in all
fields of growing grain.
We must expect Socialism to be misrepresent-
ed and misunderstood but its aims will always
Justify its methods short of violence. To allie
viate human misery is the great underlying aim
of Socialism. 1t is torn of sympathy for the ul-
fortunate, who, in the mad press OF competition,
have fallen upon the highway of life, and are
being troddcn to death. GLADDEN. does not fail
to point ont the necessity of a reasonable Social
ism in another sentence: "The inequalities OF
conditions are increasing; pauperism grows as
wealth accumulates, and the idle men stand OH
the streets while granares are bursting. That
is a "calamity howl, and proves that preach
er can see further than Republican politician,
but not further than Populists have been seeing
for almost decade.
Again: "There is an interdependence of every
interest in this world that makes individual alisn'
an absurdity."
Aoain: "The day will come when there will
be chivalry of labor; when men will put love
into their work, and do it the better for that
reason. Socialism Is not the letter, but the
spirit. 1t begins tn the tempers and aims OF IN
individuals" "The letter killeth, but the
spirit giveth life" So saith the scriptures; an'
while that passage is applicable to religion, i
holds good in earthly affairs AS has been, ant
is being, demonstrated every day, competition
DESTROYS the spirit of republican form of gov
ernment."
Republics breath the spirit ef Socialism il

JUDGE DOSTER'S OPINION.

Judge Doster is Socialist We are glad of
it. Doster is not afraid of that old fool called
"precedent Doster, in his opinion on the
senate investigating committee gives lot of
common sense, and pays no attention to prece-
dent A common sense court is the crying need
of the dav Doster informs the people that
courts have assumed too much power.
Legislatures are before courts, and before the
legislatures are the people Did the people in
tend to create a legislature that could not purge
itself of scalawags? Doster says the people
had no such intention, and if the people had
no such intention, and, having clothed the
members of the Legislature with power to enact
good laws, the people, at the same time, clothed
the legislature with power to enforce all whole
some authority necessary TO clean legislation.
If being Socialist caused Doster to deliver
dissenting opinion in the Davis case, give us
more Socialism.
1t is great pity that the supreme court did
not decide to have the senate investigating COM
mittee proceed with its investigation. Most
people would like to know if there was boodling,
and who boodled. Boodling is getting little
TOO rampant lOl governmental uSdilh.
But Kansas can't hold candle to Illinois

and the elevator trust are some of the concerns

"To HIN that hath shall be given, and to

The Bible passage seems to be applicable to
brains, but the Mckinley voters have applied
it to wealth. The gold combine, the sugar trust,
the mining association, the railroad pools and
the various other trusts have wealtl--dead

these corporations to have more money. The
Hanna voters are SO liberal as to be willing to

too liberal. They ought to hold on to blue over

AS TO NEEDS AND WANTS.

Wanamaker says that this country ought to
find ont what it wants on the money question,
and then 90 after it. Wanamaker Is not post
ed According to the way the people voted last
fall, this country wants gold standard; or,
rather, this country wants what the bosses want,
and the bosses want the offices, and i'll order to
get the Offices, the bosses want what the Wall
street banker wants, and the Wall street banker
wants what the great gold syndicate of the
world wants. Here we have the thing down to
fine point People who voted for the Hanna
outfit have not single idea of their own, and
not want, politically, that was not suggested
by their boss.
Wanamaker is having his eyes opened i'll
kind Of halnnering over the head, i'll which the
brains are sersously imperied. Wanamaker is
not lonely. Brains are being spattered all
around In the eye-opening operation that is now
so generally present
The trouble with us poor mortals is that we
don't study our needs How many men who
voted for Mckinley needed gold standard?
Possibly one in a thousand. The other nine
hundred and ninety nine voted aid to the one
voted money out of their own pockets.
One wanted, and won; nine hundred and
ninety nine needed and lost,
We searched the Bible rule Of, "To him that
hath shall be given, and to him that hath not
shall be taken away that which he hath, " only
we have given the passage new Interpretation,
viz: The fool and his money parted company.
We don't quite like to disagree with a great
man like Wanainaker, but we differ from him
SO far as to say that this country should
find out what it needs, and 60 after it on the
double jump.
This country is slowly dying Of need. One
thing needed more than anything else is honest
mer-honest politicians, honest business men,
honest corporations If we had, or had had,
honest men, our wants would, and could, be
readily supplied. If we wanted to be severe,
we should say that if the dishonest politicians
were all killed off, we could get rid of the dis
honest corporations in a manner that would sat-
isfy the people. We don't know what to do
with the dishonest politician. 1t is one of the
DEVILS chief occupations to give the dishonest
politician a following. Sometimes the backing
is immense, as III the case of Hanne.
It's no use--we can't attend to anything else
till we get rid of the dishonest politician, and
if we should happen to get rid of all of them at
once, Hades would be full to overhowing.
If Claus Spreckes' interests were centered
in Cuba Instead of Hawaii, how the great
heart of Mckinley would have warmed toward
the poor down-trodden Cubans, and what clam
oring there would be among the sugar-trust
people and their friends for the annexation ot
Cuba!

DRY of the men executed for the Hay
market massacre. have dropped a

The invitation stirred up a half hours
violent debate. The executed men were
declared to have been both the broth

succeeding speakers could get the floor
and express themselves. At length the
high council of union labor went upon
record by repudiating any implied fra
ternity between uniOniSm and anarchy,
and fatty refused to take any part in
the coming exercises.
The invitation to take part in the
memorial services was rejected by a
vote of about four to one. After the
vote a majority of the anarchistic eIe-
ment left the hal lin a body.
The anarchists will hold the memorial
meeting as usual, but it is expected the
gathering will be a tame affair.

between the big brewers and the little

The prospect for the liveliest kind
of a rate war is good. The big brewers
have served notice on the little brewers
and given them three weeks to repent
from the error of their ways. The er-
ror consists in selling beer at $3.50 a
barrel The notice comes from the Of
fee of the big brewers association in
the Schiller building The little fell
lows are told to raise their price to Sc
a barrel. The penalty is beer at SO
until the smaller fry are frozen out.
The big fellows are concerns like Pabst,
SchiltZ Gottfried and Seip.
There are about ten of the offending
small brewers in Chicago. They have
never taken kindly to the pooling ar
engagements of the big concerns. When
the extra brands of beer were made IS

to abide by the decision. They began
to offer beer at $3.50. Then they drop
