A Government of the Rabble.
Arson a. Reed.

The slaves in this system are either
worked into stupidity or they are not
allowed to work at all. They are either
overworked or kept absolutely idle.
And this horde. semi-starved in the city
and overworked in the country is con-
tinually increasing in numbers and
voting influence. 1t controls every
close election, and revenges itself on
ment. 1t makes presidents and pOliti-
clans as the Roman rabble made emper-
ors and favorites. 1t is this element
the statesman must make his terms
with and the terms are conditional to
the dimensions of the barrel or the
weight of the Doodle sack. And this is
the Palladium of our liberties, and the
hope of those reformers who crate
about the will of the people. These
are the people these heathens of the
heath and buns of the beer-joint.
These are the people you are making
with your laws and your voting: and
these are they with whom enthusiastic
women wish to share the suffrage. as
piring to have their lovely noses count
ed in the same row with the rum-blos-
SONS and their ballots mixed together
in the same malodorous box where they
are liable to be stolen. box and all.
This is the kind of democracy that Lord
Lytton long ago described under the
name of Koom Poosh: now they cali il
Come Push, and it is here, as hideous a
monster as he described it. when ii
reared its ruthless head and shook it,
shaggy name, in the Reign of Terror.
1t is the spawn of monopoly and plutoc-
racy and the slime in which both shall
sink irretrievably and eternally. for
such is the Beast and the Pit New
Dispensation.

There's many a man with a heart
kind and true,
Who is plodding along rough road:
Who is patiently seeking something

Tho he carries burdensome load,
The load that he carries is sorrow and
Do not add to its weight the least

1t will brighten his dreams for that
night.
There is many man with heart
full of grief,
Who is signing for loved ones at

Do not hastily call him a beggar or
thief,
Tho at present in rags he may
roam.
No matter what sort of a coat he may
wear,
No matter how ragged his vest:
His heart may be aching-don't break
it-take care:
Better let him with kindness be
blest.
Never Judge a poor man by the
clothes on his back;
OF his character they are no test.
If you do so your judgment will char
ity lack;
1t will cause your own conscience
unrest.
If you, thro' mistake, should e'er hap
pen TO smile
ON man undeserving or mean,
Would a frOwn then be better. would
it be worth your while,
To attempt your kind feelings to

BE cheerful and kind; your sunshine
may fall
Upon some that in darkness now sit.
Speak kindly to many. be pleasant
to all:
1t will take of your time not a bit.
Let kindness flow freely--it costs not
cent:
1t wins where oppression will fail.
Let sympathy strong 70 the needy be

Let love among brothers prevail.

The Dangers He Sees.

have lived in community two
years of my life-the brightest, hap
piest two years, and | believe the
most useful. | discovered in those
two years some of the dangers that
befall men and women who try to
carry out social ideas.
Cultivate above all things the habit
of self judgment and try rot to form
judgments of others. In plain Eng
fish, Mind your own business"
If you are strong, do all the work
you can. Work will not hurt you, but
it develops mind and body. People
do not wear out with work so often as
they rust out with worry. Don't mind
the weaker one who won't or can't
do as much as you. Try and help him
to work that will call out his interest
and zeal.
Don't gossip or tell the shortcom-
ings of others. Sufficient are the evil
minded to relate all the evil in the
world: let your tongue be busy with
good words and wise, hopeful sayings.
Remember at all times that the
success of your colony is greater than
any individual success, for the news
of your success will come over hot
plains of wage slavery like a cool
breeze from the ocean, and out of
your struggles will come the way for
all people to be free.
Pay strict regard to the children
try and show them the beauties of
communal brotherhood. so that they
will grow up not thirsting to get
away. but glad to remain and be
worker bees. The future depends
more on the children than all else.
They will grow up with the ideals
set in their mind which their elders
have had to work out in toll and many
sorrows.
| have great faith in you because
you are poor. and like a young couple
who take a yoke of oxen and pillow
and cook stove in a prairie schooner
and start out into the wild west. so
you have gone to first principles, and
your trials and difficulties will bind
you together. while the gold of mil
lionaire would put you all asunder.
All good be yours.

The Real Conflict. There is no con-
fict between labor and capital Cap
ital is mainly either machinery or
raw material. Is there any conflict
between Blacksmith Jones and his
bellows? Is there a strife between
Butcher Smith and his sausage ma
chine? Is there conflict between
Farmer Brown and his meadow? The
real conflict is not between the la
borel and capital, but between the
laborer and some greedy capitalist
who, by some means having secured
legal right to monopolize certain
capital machinery or raw material)
refuses the capitalless workers
chance to work, unless they will first
agree to give him one-third to one
half of what they produce. as
man can cultivate only a very llml-
ted number of acres the workers in
come is necessarily small: but as our
present iniquitous capitalistic system
does not limit the number of acres
landlord must own, there is no limit
to the oilers income. There is no con-
nict between the laborer and the cap
italist. The conflict is on and will
grow fiercer and bloodier till justice
is done. Peace can never come till
the laborers and not the idlers con-
troll the use of capital, that is, in the
main, of machinery and raw ma

Yes: Promptness Is Necessary.

help to establish others, as they be-
