The next typical instance of war
for revenue only concerns the Merri-
mac, now sunk in Santiago harbor,
and rendered very glorious in conse-
quence. This boat, according to the
New York Herald, was worth at the
very utmost, 100000, and fetched but
$4,000 at private sale. But the
United States government paid S342,
600 for her owing to the influence of
former assistant secretary of the
navy, who went to Washington and
put the deal through shortly after
the outbreak of the war. Very full
details are given in connection with
this apparent swindle. 1t seems that
the Auxiliary CruiserBoard was asked
to recommend the purchase of the
Merrimac, but refused, for the rea-
son that she was an inferior and worn
out old hulk. The Board rejected her
absolutely. Thereupon a politician
went to Washington and procured
the appointment of special agents,
through whom the boat was pur-
chased, very unusual and irregular
proceeding. When the deal was COM
pleted the Auxiliary Cruiser Board
took care to make it known that it
had nothing to do with the purchase.
The Merrimac, at the bottom of San
tiago harbor, is therefore a monu-
ment to American corruption. In
deed it is doubtful if Spain could
produce an instance of grosser venal-
ity.-[Twentieth Century.

Go To Equality.

In Industrial Freedom. of the 10th,
l notice call for referendum as to loca-
ton of B G c. headquarters. Well,
while it may have been the best, and
perhaps the only thing that could be
done when headquarters were changed
to locate in Edison and hire the neces-
sary buildings, it seems to me that un-
der present conditions at Equality, the
there, and by doing so it would not on
ly save rents, but tend to strengthen
the colony, create harmony and help
the cause of cooperation both in and
outside of the colony. Let each worker
at headquarters become member of
Equality colony. and thus secure a
share of its rights and benefits. Com
bine and concentrate all your forces on
Equality until such time as it is not on
ly self-sustaining, but also able to help
My its food products to sustain other
colonies that may need such help.
To locate elsewhere, would be to start
another colony, creating rival interes is
rand weakening both. Why should
headquarters seek to start up any in
dustry apart from the colony? Its in
terests are or ought to be centred in
the colony as well as the colony in the
interests of those at headquarters.
Hence it seems to me the much wiser
course that headquarters be located at
Equality, its workers become members
and partakers of it's benefits, and to
make sure of success take one thing at
a time, establish the sawmill, then
take hold of the steamboat, or what
ever is thought to be most needed and
of most Importance, then a Touring
mill, wooden or cotton factory, etc.,
in succession as means can be had
to build or buy such, for until we possess
these things we will be to a greater or
less degree at the mercy of the old sys-
tenn, hence the Importance of united,
concentrated effort until obtained.
Therefore my say is, locate headquar-
tiers at Equality and by a steady pull, a
long pull, and a pull all together we will
win. Enclosed find my ballot for the
referendum. ANDREW SCOTT.

ships? My answer is; They are not.
The thought that there can be CO.
operation between the laborers of diff
ferent departments of useful toll causes
our brother to exclaim "Oh, bosh."
From this | infer that Bro. Hicks
does not fully comprehend the needs OF
Equality colony, and if he could have a
few months of practical experience in
pioneer work his views would be
greatly modified and his knowledge
would be vastly more practical.
Our good brother need not fear that
a removal of the printery to the colony
would result in the lowering of the
tone of sentiment or quality of typog-
raphy. If any such spectres are dis
turbing him let him join us and become
Il practical example of his teachings
and all such spectres will speed away.
Now, Bro. Hicks manifests undue
concern for those Socialists who are
not educated up to the plane OF
Equality. He need waste neither
time nor sentiment on these, but leave
| them to the tender mercieS of the
Plutes. This is the most economical
way for lis and it is certain in its

Thinks 1t a Good Site.

AS there is a proposition to start a
colony at Harmony, Wash, | have
been there to see the place. There
is plenty of rich land, some cleared,
and some nearly cleared. Plenty of
good timber near by. A hop field
AID orchard that would support sew
eral families now. The Cowitz river
has facilities for furnishing an
abundance of power with very little
la bor.
The only drawback is transporta-
ton, but by engaging in industries
that are especially adapted to that
vicinity, the transportation problem
would not cut much figure. In my
travels of four years in some fifteen
states have not seen any place more
favorable for colony. | hope that
the brothers of the B G C will inves-
tigate the Harmony site.
