We give herewith the terms of the
machinery fund, to which we call the
especial attention of all the we'll
wishers of the B c c movement. We
have made a good start seward secur-
ing a large saw mill, at Il great bar
gain, and have money enough sub
scribed to pay for it and transport 1t
to the colony grounds. Bnt. in order
to put it to work we will be bound to
have donkey engine. The saw mill
has been paid for by those already on
the ground, practically, and now we
call on the reserves and everyone who
can do even a little for socialism TO
get us the donkey engine. Here are
the terms on which the machinery
fund is to be raised:
Resolved. That the general assem-
bly, hereby create Il special fund to be
known as the MACHINERY Fund" to
begin October LIST, 1898. Into this fund
shall be paid - per cent of all cash
salaries drawn by any and all mem
bers of Equality, and also so per cent
of all gross cash earnings of all ma
chinery bought in whole or in part by
the machinery fund. The payment
of such earnings into this fund shall
begin six months after the COM
mencement of the operation of such
machinery IN each particular case.
This fund shall be for the single pur-
pose of repaying any and all mem
bers and others who have or shall
hereafter contribute money or its
equivalent toward the purchase OF
machinery for Equality colony. This
machinery fund may be discontinued
at any regular meeting whenever all
demands upon that fund shall have
been paid. All loans to this fund
shall be without interest, the princi-
pal to be paid quarterly, and the
amount due each lender shall be cal
culated on the ratio the amount of
the loan bears to the whole amount
of the loan and proportional to the
amount in the machinery fund at the
time of each quarterly payment. In
no case shall this fund be used except
as herein stated. The disbursement
of this fund shall be in the same man
ner as other moneys of Equality are
paid out.
Now in view of the fact that our
own resident brothers show such prac-
teal faith in the colony by such large
subscriptions, does it not appear that
the reserves can well afford to place
asmal amount each, guaranteed as
ii is by the contract? Little added to
little makes the mighty aggregate
that win put the pioneer workers for
socialism In a position to become self
supporting in "a very few months
Just let that -elf-.upporting point he
reached and then our membership
fees can be used for more and more
machinery. and the material success
will be assured. tits then seen to be
both economical and wise TO strength
en- the machinery fund SoW. Sub
scribe now. and by the time we have
the SAWS mill set up we win be able to
order the donkey engine and 20 to
work ut once.
