We are overwhelmed with letters from

ia publish II statement of The facts.
The colony owns free from remembrance
Cos acres OF land, 10 horses, 3 miles, II COWS,
4 calves 10 hogs, IL pigs, wagons and quite
u number Of ordinary farm implements, etc.
We own 45-horse power saw MILL with
shingle mill and planar. We also have a
35-horse power donkey engine
We carry on farming, on u small scale hav-
inc 20 acres under cultivation, and about -
or 30 acres more nearly ready for the p.ov:

The deed will be signed April 9Th, 1899.
The best location in or state, so our land
committee say.
Our location society, March 18th, was the
best in attendance and tie best time.
Comrade Obrecht and his five children
make up the Nicksur brass band. They held
forth on the 18TH furnishing four numbers.
Our brass band is not only good, it is SIM ly
marvellous.
Harmony is the great feature of the Mix
sur meetings. Even vital a question as
the final settlement of the colony site was
passed by the stockholders with only one dis
senting vote.
Our library is growing. Several valuable
books have been contributed lately, among
which was a law book on corporations and
several school BOOKS
There is a good school within two miles of
the colony site.
Comradc Harrington brou ht some speci-
mems of wild grass from the colony site that
was five feet 81 ( inches tall. "How is that
for high!'
Some men are like Il base drum they make
lots of noise, but there is nothing in them.
The cooperative colony movement want more
substance and less base drum
Many thoughts developed at the special
meeting of the stockholders on Saturday
evening, March 49, During the general dis
cussion, somebody remarked That it isn't
working for living that hurts the average
man, but the kind Of living he gets for his
work. >

EQUALITY COLONY
MWNMN'S GOhUNNo
All communications in ,ended for this
column should be directed to Anna
Burgess, Equality, Washington.

The wcmen of Equality seem to have had
their say, at least they do not seem disposed
to write for our column. Contributionsfrom
anyone will be welcome.
Many persons are coming to Equality now
Some stay and some do not. Those who come
here only for their own personal benefit are
very seldom satisfied with present conditions.
They perhaps have read few books on So
calism, and imagined Equality to be as per-
feet as Bethany pictures socialism to be In
one hundred years from now. And even
those who are well read and well posted on
our conditions here are almost sure to feel
somewhat disappointed as they become tc-
quainted with all the little details connected
with our work. This isdue to the realization
of the fact that the real is not the IDEAL. 1t
is quite impossible for people who have been
reared under the old competitive system.
with selhshness instilled into their very na-
lures to come and live a perfect socialistic
life at once. This is something to be learned
step at a time. just as we are learning here
in Equality. | have learned more in the past
eight months than in many years. And the
lessons are we'll impressed on my memory
and are invaluable. The c0lony's best work
is to prepare the people Tor the new regime
which is sure to come.

AS it is requested of all new corners to write
their opinion of the colony, | will add mine
to the list. We came across lonely prairies
and grand mountains into this heavily tim
bercd state; finding the grass and ferns all
green and fresh, prettier than anything we
had passed.
The colony is stuased one mile from the
bay, and is IL much larger town than thought
could have sprung up in little over year.
The colony people are the jolliest crowd |
ever lived among. The majority of them are
the very best OF true hearted people, ever
ready To help each other. We have a post
Office, printery, tailor shop tin shop shoe
shop, bakery and large ;hool house The
men all work eight hours u day, while
the women only work five hours day. if
well, either as teachers or in the sewing de-
partment, kitchen, dining rooms, laundry,

naaes the work on the whole easier than it
was in our own honsas. Ii anyone is sick they
are well cared for. II Is Il very healthy coun-
try. But we have no electric lights or street
