DEBs TN TOPEKA.
President Of the Social Democracy Speaks
70 an AmmanaA Andienoa.

TO an AmmenBe Audience.
Eugene v. Debs, President Of the SO-
cial Democracy, spoke at Hamilton Hall,
Topeka, Friday evening to an audience
Of 1000 people. His personal magnet
ism captured the audience, and he held
their sympathy and close attention
throughout the evening.
G. c. Clemens presided at the meet
ing, and was introduced to the audience
by C. c. Hogue, President Of the local
branch Mr.. Clemens made short in
troductory address presenting Mr.. Debs
to the audience,
Mr.. Debs' address was in different
vein from that which some Of his audi
ence expected, but 1t may be taken as
setting forth the principles Of the Social
Democracy. 1t was frequently inter
rupted by the approval of those who
heard it, and at the point where Presi-
dent Debs said, I'VE are on the eve OF
what, in my opinion, will be the great
est revolution in the history of the
world This will come, not in anger or
in crime, not in bloodshed and agony,
but by an intelligent ballot" the DEM
onstation of applause continued 80 that
it was several minutes before the
speaker could proceed.
Mr.. Debs said:
There are in this country to-day mil
lions Of people who are the victims Of
mans inhumanity to man. The man
who works the hardest and longest hours
has the least to show for it. The man who
works the least and Is less useful has
the most. Human beings are being re-
duced to a commodity. Four millions
Of men are out of employment to-day.
Millions Of others are living by permis-
siOn-that is to say, they are working
for such a pittance as the corporations
see fit to give them. This state of af-
fairs indicates that something is wrong.
1t appears to every courageous man. Yet
every man who speaks the truth is re-
garded as a disturber of the peace-an
agitator. Social garbage is poured upon
his head and he becomes malcontent
because he chooses to work for the inter-
ests Of men oppressed by corporate
power This is because there are too
many towards among us. ALI men are
more or less guilty Of this charge. They
endure the expressions without audible
complaint. Ministers indulge in plati-
tudes and advise the workingmen to be
law-abiding yet they never advise their
opDressOrs to follow such a course.

curiosity. Now we do not have to go

They are compelled to do so; displaced

do not despise him because II existing
conditions last long enough l am liable
to become tramp myself.
"'The middle class is in process of de-
structlon. In 1896 of 100000 firms en-
gagged in business, 224,534 were closed
up. In 1890 there were 2,040 suicides.
In 1896 there were $3.50, threefold In
crease in six years. In 1896 there were
1862 murders; in 1890, 4,29O. This
abnormal development of crime Is the
result Of abnormal conditions. The
workingman seeks employment. Instead
he finds despair from which he escapes
through the back-door Of suicide. The
small business man cannot compete with
the trusts, and he Is forced TO the wall
and in his desperation takes his life.
Men out of employment are forced to
become tramps first; criminals next and
then menace to society. In Chicago
there are $4,000 unemployed men, vic
Tins Of present conditions. Statistics
show us that one out of every 378 per-
sons Is insane; one OF every 757 of our
population Is in jail; one out OF every
4SS Is in the poorhouse.
Machines which were destined to aid
labor have become "a curse to 1t. They
have been seized by the corporations
and used as an additional means OF
breaking down the wages Of those who
invented the machines. The laboring
man is every day becoming more and
more slave. His condition Is lxed and
there is no escape
I'VE cannot escape the organization Of
trusts. They are the inevitable results
Of existing conditions. Competition is
destroyed by gigantic monoplies. They
can no more be regulated by law than a
stream of water. They first contrOl the
necessities of the people and then the
people themselves.
I'VE are on the eve of what, in my
opinion, will be the greatest revolution
in the history Of the world. This will
come not in anger or in crime, not In
bloodshed and agony, but by an intelli-
gent ballot. 1t will come as gentle as
the snow flakes In obedience to the will
of God.
To-day society does not demand man
hood and sterling integrity. Tell me
how much money man has, and will
tell you what he registers on the social
thermometer. Show me man that has
no money and will tell you at once
that he Is at the zero point on that ther-
mOmeter.
THE golden rule has been perverted
to man: DO others or they will do you.
There Is no conscience in modern COM
merce or business. The chief inspiration
to energy is a desire to eat each other
up.
1T has been said that the poorest man
among us may aspire to the Presidency
and stand a good show Of getting there,
but can show You millions of men who
would gladly swap their chances for the
Presidency for a square meal. The con-
sthution declares that all men are Gre
ated equal. On Fifth avenue in New
York child is born heir to $20,O0O,000.
In the poor districts child Is born heir
TO rags. One is born to the fullness Of
the earth; the other to the wTetchedness
thereof; one is born master, the other
slave.
These conditions indicate that men
