thing he buys, just how much profit they

everything they buy.

ferent goods, offered at lowest whole

Get but the truth once uttered, and It's like
A star newborn, that drops into its place,
And which, once clrcling in It's placid round,
Not all the tumult Of the earth can shake.
Lowell.
The Union for Socialist Propaganda
is organized on principles in which l
have long believed. 1t will exact no fees
nor dues, it will pay no salaries, it will
incur no expense which does not repre-
sent actual work for the spread of Social
ism. It's founders believe, with William
Lloyd Garrison, that a political party
is the most expensive, wasteful, and
least efficacious Of all instrumentalities
for moral agitation and the enlighten-
ment Of the people" but they recognize
the perfect right of other Socialists to
think otherwise, and the Union will not
antagoniZe political action. 1t has moth
ing to do with the matter. Its chosen
field is agitation, and to that field its
efforts and its energies will be vigorously
confined. 1t will seek to make people
Socialists, and, having done so, will
leave them to decide for themselves
what, as Socialists, they ought to do.
The project rests upon absolute faith
that ideas, made alive by deep feeling,
never fail to change society and create
a new material environment. And what
is this but accepting the obvious fact
that every material manifestation is the
effect of an invisible cause? Thetelegraph,
the telephone, the electric light, the troll
ley car, are tangible enough; but who
has ever seen electricity itself? The tor
nado is quite manifest, but who knows
aught of the atmosphere itself? We
know things tend to fall toward the cen
ter of the earth, but who knows what is
gravitation itself? So, in the moral
world, every great movement is pushed
by unseen hands" Political parties and
great organizations are visible and
known, but they are only the effects of
ideas and feelings, which no human eye
can perceive. Spread great idea and
arouse the enthusiasm which great ideas
never fail to evoke, and the organized
effort to make that idea prevail will come
of itself. Whatever the public mind and
the public conscience demand Is certain
to be done, regardless Of laws, Consti-
tutions and institutions. Change the
ideas and the hearts Of people and they
will change their environment, too. This
is the philosophy Of the Union for So
cialist Propaganda. 1t is the philosophy
deducibe from the history Of all great

social and political movements. Indeed,
how can men be got to organize for the
realization Of an idea until they have
first been got to accept that idea? Agi-
tatiOn must necessarily precede Organi-
zation.
What agitation can do has been re-
peatedly and cOnspicuously demon
strated during the present century. Early
In the century came the abolition of the
slave trade by Great Britain, followed
later by the West India emancipation.
The Reform Bill of 1882 was the result
OF agitation. The Chartist movement
had nothing TO rely upon but agitation,
for how could wOrkingmen who had no
votes secure the right to vote by Orga-
nlzing political party? AS the result
Of vigorous agitation the Corn Laws
were repealed by a Parliament and a
Prime Minister elected to prevent repeal.
In 1867 conservative government voted
household suffrage as the result Of agi-
tatiOn. It was Dickens, not political
party, that overthrow the old English
chancery.
BY what political party in this country
was the abolition Of Imprisonment for
debt ever made an issue? What pollt-
ical party gave us our exemption laws,
which stay the pitiless hand Of the rapa-
cious credltor?' To what political party
do we owe insane asylums, reform
schools, institutions for tine education Of
deaf mutes and of the blind? Where
was the establishment and maintenance
of public hospitals ever made partisan
demand? Was it the victory Of some
political party that gave us paid fire
departments? Cities own waterwOrks,
illuminating plants, public Libraries and
reading rooms, and many other things.
Did they get them through the ascend
ancy of political party organized for
the purpose? Did politics found our
agricultural colleges, our normal schools,
our State universities? Slavery was abol-
ished by President who, upon assum-
ing Office, expressly and publicly pledged
himself in his inaugural address that It
should not be interfered with and that
the fugitive slave law should be faith
fully enforced. The emancipation proc
lamation was no party measure. Indeed,
when the fields Of reform and progress
are carefully surveyed, the fact Obtrudes
itself that we owe to political parties
few Of the laws, institutions or improve
ments which contribute so much to
