worse than the Spaniards dealt out.
Don't begin to groan yet, Porty, the
ball hasn't opened.
TO the honest, loyal or conscien-
tious man public office is a position
of trust and sacrifice to any ordi-
nary business. That is, no man who
has a fair business or a good situa-
ton can afford to assume the duties OF
a public office without making a sacri-
fee. It must be then that the colln-
try is not overlooking with prosperity
when there is such maddening rush
for public teats to suck as there is at
the present time. The president had
the appointing of 101 second lieuten-
ants under the new army bill, and in
less than three weeks time there were
over $4,000 applications for the 101
.''yobs." It was not patriotism, but
want, caused by gold standard pros
perity, that was the cause of this
great scramble for public pie.
It is a painful study to note how
awfully awful generous some of the
skin-fints, who are so stingy that they
almost deny themselves a square meal
when they have to pay for the same
themselves, become when they are in
iected into some office where they are
empowered with vote, to expend or
appropriate public funds. They are
then willing to be very generous in
deed-and more especially so if it is
with some contractor who has "seen"
them properly. Watch. this and you,
will see that it is too true to be funny.
Duluth and New York are the only
two cities in the country where first
class prize fight can be pulled off
without police interference. Verify,
we are rapidly becoming a metropoll-
tan city,. When one can read in his
morning paper the details of prize
fight that took place the night before
in the heart of the city, at which a
hundred or two sports were present
and that one of the combatants had
his face pushed i'm and his leg brok-
en-. it is an indication that the COM
munity is not too ''long-faced" and
that the municipality is conducted
on a broad-guage system. Oc-
currances Of this character will also
furnish topics for ministerial dis
courses, while, at the same time they
are advocating the annexation of the
Philippines and the killing, if neces-
sarX, of every native inhabitant OF
those far off Islands,. in order to bring
aboat this glorious and Christian. re-
suit. Virtue hath it's reward! 4

of the laboring men of this country
in comparison with the capitalists who
absorb all the profits-taking in fact,
all the valuable parts of the fruits,
leaving the workmen only the pear
ings-the rinds-the refuse with all
the juices squeezed out.
And now, not contentwit h exploit
ing in this country, the capitalist
wants territorial expansion
room in which to use his wage slaves,
to make more for himself.
During the evening Mr.. Thiel pro-
nounced against the single tax being
a remedy. for existing conditions
that it was only theory-a bubble
that, when burst, would leave multo-
millionaires on one side and a vast
multitude of wage-slayes and paupers
on the other side. 49,.
In answer to the question as to why
if all political parties become corrupt
after they get into powerfully the
Socialists woula not become corrupt
also. Mr.. Kriz answered by showing
that Socialism is not working for
profit. Under Socialism all would
work: for the good of, each other.
Competition and extreme capitalism
would be- abolished, all would be lev
eled up to the same plane where all
would have opportunity for employ
ment and all would engage in EN-
ployment of some kind serviceable TO
mankind. There would be no one
half of the human family with nothing
to do and trying to spend their money,
while the other half as slaves and
beasts of burden were continually
overworked, and poorly paid. That
when all worked only a few hours
would be required each day to give
every person the best food, clothing,
habitation, furniture, comfort all that
heart could wish. That when all work
ed for and contributed to the happi-
ness of each other, with no profits in
view there would be no motive to
corruption and Socialism is the only
remedy for the corruption that now
saturates all the political parties in ex-
istence outside of the Socialistic
Labor organization.

Last Saturday was the closing night.
of the bazar,. after a very successful
week at the Armory, and an attractive
program was rendered. The-feature
of the evening was very excellent
speech by Mr.. Edward Krlz, president
of the Trades Assembly. We believe
that every one present recognized in
this gentleman a very earnest worker
and one who has given his subject
thorough study. He believes that the
remedy for all the social ills lies in the
ballot and it is only necessary for
proper education in order to bring the
relief that the toiling masses OF this
nation so badly need. Laws would
never be made for the benefit. OF the
poorer classes by the capitalistic law
maker as he was unable to appreciate
the wants of people with whom he
never came in touch and the only
source from which relief could be eX-
pected was by organization and con-
certed action along political as Wen
as industrial lines. The hall was pack
ed almost to suffocation and Mr.. KRIS
remarks were received with great APP
plause.

We understand that a considerable
sum of money was realized from the
labor bazaar. Now if this money is
put to some purpose for the general
good of the cause the effort will not
have been made:,in vain. A few good
speeches by some of the celebrated re-
formers would enthuse new blood into
the veins of the labor movement and
would probably result in as much or
more good than any one thing that
could possibly be- done. There is no
object in going to such pains to raise
money unless it is going to be spent
for the general good of the cause.
Let us have Il few speeches by such
men as Clarence S. barrow, ex-Gov.
Altgeld, Eugene v. Debs, or any other

the result cannot help being good.

LONDON. Jan. 7.--All events seem to
work together in European politics to
increase the tension between Great
Britain and France. The past week has
brought Madagascar and Egypt forward
as irritants, Just when the mutual Irri-

conservative observers begin to take a

the two powers. This includes those who.
up to the present have considered be-

sensltiveness upon the part Of the French
and to unnecessary gruffness upon the
part OF Great Britain IN insisting on What

Houses OF Congress.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-The house en-
gagged all day In legislation of the exc
outive appropriation bill and completed
It substantially as reported, except the
items for the civil service commission,
which went over until Monday.
There were several side debates during
the day, The Philippines came in for at
tention on the discovery OF an item OF
$4,000 for naval charts of the islands.
The item was ruled out ON a point of
order by Dockery, Chairman Payne hold
hg that the Philippines were stin for
eign territory and as such not proper
subject for the legislation proposed.
At brief session of the senate the
first of the regular appropriation bills to
be reported to that body. the district
OF Columbia measure, was passed. 1t
carried trl1e over $7,OOO,0O0 and was
passed practically without debate. The
house bill granting extra pay to officers
and enlisted men, or United States vol
unteers, was called up by Shoup and
passed without amendment. The bill
grants two months extra pay to troops
that have served outside this country
and one months extra pay to those who
have served only in this country.
