Industrial freedom. [volume] (Edison, Wash.) 1898-1???, 1899-04-15

public opinion and sentiment are pow
crless today to help or restrain. Or
ganization is supreme. In these times
you must be either an isolated atom,
defenceless and the helpless prey OF
the world, or must be an integer ofan
organization that only can exert the
power to preserve your rights and re-
dress your injuries. Our most sacred
duty TO society and to those who
come after us, require that we take
this, the only means short of revol,l-
ton, to perpetuate manhood and lib
erty upon the earth. Organize your
industry. Join your trades unions.
Count for something in this Battle of
the Giants. Be not a pygmy skulkerJ
q crawling recreant, a creeping syco-
plant to the opposing organization
that is naturally and inevitably hos
tile to your interest and your rights,
and having used you will kick you
aside as a thing having the form OF
man but too ignorant or vile to act
the man.
Do not wait for others to act for
you. Do not wait to be solicited to
do your duty, to join your brethren,
to help organize your trade or indus
try. Do it yourself. Volunteer.
Bear cheerfully your part of the duties
and expenses. Give of your time and
your means with the eager generosity
that a broad reason and a deep con-
viction and a high principle should
prompt The Power of Assosiationis
today the only recogized power in the
industrial world You must be one of
an organized industry or you are no
thing. Organized living brotherhoods
whether of capital or of labor alone
wieit, power, they alone are heard or
needed. They now take the place of
the local neighbors and friends of TN

preston, redressing your wrongs and
helping maintain your rights. Or
ganize your Brotherhood, join your
self to it's power add your strength
to it and its strength to yours and
feel the mighty flow of its power
round about yourself and your de-
pendent ones. If you are one of an
unorganized million, your strength is
still but ore; if you are one OF an or
gained million, your strength is that
of million. Learn a lesson from the
war Of conquest in the east. What
chance have the unorganized multi
tudes OF the orient against the or
gained and trained battalions of the
west? Of what avail their valor,
their energy, their enthusiasm, their
blood sacrifices, their numbers with
out discipline or organization? A I'M
iverse OF chaos is powerless before a
dozen atoms of order. BE not one of
the savage multitude to be moved
down by the guns of the organized
few. Be not an atom in a u1livercs OF
chaos. Be one of the Chaos-conquer-
ing Order. Organize your industry.
Join your order. Belong to one ofthe
modern Brotherhoods-Capital or
Labor. millions for defense, but
not one cent for tribute" No taxa
ton without we know the reason
why and consent No irresponsible
power without an organization to
oppose it.
Servitude or fellowship, masterhood
or brotherhood, chaos or organiza-
ton, conflict or cooperation, freedom
or despotism-these are the alterna-
tives presented to Labor today. The
power to choose is not yet denied.
Choose today or tomorrow brings
the revolution.
