RRL1EF FOR THE uNEMPLoYEp.

One of the most important planks in
the Populist platform is that calling for
the establishment of free employment
bureau. 1t is too important to be made
a partisan issue, and it should be sup
ported by all parties represented in the
next Legislature. 1t can be put into eff
feet at very little expense, and it will
bring relief to the citizens of the State
who are most in need Of legislation.
A man in search Of employment has
nearly everything against him. He is
compelled to spend money for living
expenses, while hunting job, and moth
ing is coming. If he goes to the aver
age employment agency to seek work
he is bled numerically. He has little
sympathy in the selfish, unsocialistic life
we live.
A system which will give him some
income while waiting for permanent
work will prove a God-send to those in
the "army of the unemployed, and es-
pecially those who do not enjoy the BEN
efts which come from membership In a
labor organization. Such system has

THE COMMONWEALTH CLUB.

The women Of Kansas should feel very
grateful to Mrs. Diggs and her cO-wOrk-
ers for an opportunity to study together
questions of such absorbing interest as
those which will come before the Com
monwealth Club. The club spirit is
growing and it speaks well for our wO-
men. The old idea that women should
be kept in ignorance Of public affairs
has vanished in the face of their earnest
study and all over the country they are
organizing for the study of the great
questions Of the day.
The first topic to be taken up by the
Commonwealth Club is What is Social
ISM" or, to put it in words which
cannot be mistaken, What is applied
Christianity" The word Socialism
means to many nothing but anarchy,
but no thinker ever misconstrued it So
Few words hold so broad meaning, and
the sooner we broaden our ideas to take
in its full force the sooner we shall
understand what Christ came to teach
us. Earnest thought and study on this
question will do more than any amount
of argument and we will have learned
how to keep the first great command
ment, when we know that the second
will keep itself. Montalgne said, Learn
ing, joined with knowledge is an especial
and graceful ornament and an imple-
ment Of wonderful use and consequence"

literally by one man would ruin him
financially but If applied by a country
they would give us a Utopia. 1t is the
fear Of this communism that leads peO-
pie to think that Socialism is dangerous,
simply because they do not realize that
1t must come about gradually, by a step
at time. 1t is making it's advance man
ifest in the growth of public ownership,
in the principles of free silver, in the
labor unions, in the practical Christian
work and teachings Of many Christian
churches Of this country. Socialists have
been greatly misunderstood, just as the
founder Of Socialism, Jesus Christ, was
despised and rejected. But they have
the courage that is born of conviction
and the enthusiasm of right They are
not asking for honor or for glory; they
are uphOldlng the right and are willing
to endure persecution, just as those who
have upheld the right before them have
suffered for their beliefs.
To get a clear idea Of the meaning Of
Socialism you have but to look at any
OF It's phases in the light OF a fight be-
tween the souls of men and the interests
Of property. The liquor question Is one
example. The prohibitionists are So
ciallsts because they think that they
have found way to cut the curse of
drink off from its power to make brutes
OF men. Behind the liquor problem
stands the root of all evil: the love Of
money. In the labor problem, in every
social problem there is the same Gordian
knot to cut, capitalism. There is moth
ing righteous in the root of all evil;
there is everything righteous supporting
the forces arrayed against it. The So
Cial ism is that ism which is asking the
downfall Of the commercial ism; and 1t
is as sure that Socialism will be as vic
toriOus in all It's combats as it was when
the Socialism Of Jesus triumphed over
the capitalism Of Judas.

The Christian people OF Shawnee
county are arousing to the dan
ger confronting them. They were
defeated at the Republican prima-
ries Saturday in the contest for County
Attorney and State Senator, and two
of their foes now stand as the Repub-
lican candidates for these offices. County
Attorney Jetmore, who was renominated
over one Of the strongest temperance at
torneys in the county is well known as
a friend Of the saloon element and
fragrant violator Of his oath. He re-
ceived the unanimous support of the
liquor interests, who concentrated their
energy and spent their money freely for
his nomination. They are anxious to
elect Jetmore in order to use him as
drag upon the enforcement Of the pro-
hibitory law in Shawnee county. They
realize that the temperance people are
gaining ground, and that their boast
that Cook will come around in time" Is
not coming true, and so they are de-
pending upon again controlling the
County Attorneyship, a position which
can do prohibition considerable harm.
The interests opposed to law and or
der also succeeded in nominating Major
+. J. Anderson. It was Major Anderson
who said, when the temperance people
attempted to close saloon in Topeka
last fall: 1T was just a few cranks who
stirred up all this trouble at the park

Early last week numerous dispatches
appeared tending to indicate that ma
jOrity of the boys of Company A, Of the
Twenty-second Kansas, had been pois-
oned by eating hash cooked in a cor
roded kettle. It was reported that more
than thirty were in a serious condition.
Later reports indicate that the trouble
arose from eating spoiled meat. In
few days time the boys recovered and
no serious cases were developed.

WHAT Is THE SOCIAL 1sn19

The interest in the social problem Of
late years has been growing more rap
idly than even its most jealous apostles
have realized. An understanding Of
what it is is coming rapidly to persons
in all walks Of life. Men who hold high
positions are seeing just as keenly as
does the COmmonest laborer, who is not
brought so sharply in contact with the
dishonesty of business, that the great
question Of the day is that between the
social ism and the commercial ism. Our
business advancement since the civil war
has given the commercial spirit the up
per hand, but the motto that we used to
hear, Competition is the life of trade"
has been supplanted by the expression
Competition Is growing keener." For
self-preservation, as they admit, man
ufacturers are forming trusts and COM
binations which apply on large scale
the ruthless policy Of competition in
crushing out all who ask fair field.
The home and the church are feeling
keenly the absorbing interest which
competitive system of business demands
from those who should be first to think
of home and church. 1t is impossible
to find a person who can cOnscientionsly
defend the competitive system as ra-
tional and enduring.
There are other reasons showing that
cCmmercialism is on the decline. When
the people demand a change as strongly
as they are demanding change from
commercialism to Socialism it is certain
that there are powerful reasons backing
the demand. 1t can be shown that the
people are not demanding a revolu-
tiOnary change to the ultimate ends Of
socialism-even the radical socialists are
not asking that-but it is impossible to
prove that they are not seeking the
adoption Of more Christ-like principles
and more sane methods in the conduct OF
private and public business.
But this is wandering slightly from
our query? What is the social ism? 1t
embraces any theory which makes for
more orderly and better adjustment Of
life, and which seeks to make men bet
ter and more like their Maker No mat
ter what the form it is displayed in 1t
is in some way an outgrowth of the
teachings Of Christ. Anything is So
cialism that seeks to solve the social
problem. 1t was Socialism that gave us
the Omaha platform, it is Socialism that
is giving Charles M. Sheldons books a
circulation of 100000 year, it is So
clalism that is carrying on Bryan's great
campaign of 1896 to certain victory in
1900. Socialism is winning its victories
right along, and there is no stopping 1t.
1t is victorious because 1t is right.
