OF the document:
PART l.
In every commune where the peo-
pie have been victorious revolution
committees will assemble. These
will execute the orders issued by the
revolutionary army, which will
strengthen itself by arming all the
workingmsn and make use CT its
power as the conqueror OF anew
world,
The present system will be the
more readily and easily vapquished
if those in authority, be they kings,
kaisers or presidents, be at once
destroyed. In the meantime massa.
cres OF the enemies OF the people
should be organized.
All free communes will enter into
an alliance, offensive and defensive,
Tor the continuation OF the struggle.
Instructions must be excited ia
the districts round and about the
revolted communes. The reyolu.
tionary war can only come to an end
when the foe has been pursued to
his last hiding place aud destroyed.
In order to solve the economic
question more quickly and complete
ly, all lands and movables shall be
declared the property OF their res.
pective communes.
Until the harmonious re- establish
ment OF things the following princi-
Piles to be made public at once shall
have the force OF law:
Every pending debt shall be ex-
tinguished.
Articles for personal use in pawn
shall be returned to the owners free
OF expense.
Rents shall not be paid, since all
men have the right to protect their
health by seeking shelter.
Committees on quarters, which
will hold permanent sittings in the
various districts, will issue billets to
those who have no homes or whose
accommodations are inadequate,
which will secure them comforta-
BILE homes. After tho rich have
been swept away this will be an easy
matter. 3d..
Until every one be provided with
employment the commune guar
antees to every one the necessaries
OF life
The organization OF good schools
and kindergartens is matter that
may not be delayed. No more can
universal instruction OF grown per-
sons, which becomes possible under
the new system,be postponed or neg
lected. In the churches, whore in
future, Of course, no priestling has
any business, people will assemble
to listen to the gospel of truth and
OF knowledge.
Every printing press will be put
in operation, ia order that improv-
ing books, newspapers and pam.
| phlets my be produced by the million
and distributed, especially in lands
still deprived OF liberty, if such
there be.
All law books, criminal aud police
registers, records Of mortgages, mer-
camille books and documents Of
every description are to be burned
as soon as found.
All persons in prison are to be set
at liberty.
The military aud police are abol-
ished Those who are refractory
or behave in q rascally manner are
TO be gotten out OF this world in the
quickest possible way.
PART II.
The society consists entirely OF in
dependent communes.
The whole is held together, not
under the guardianship OF the State
or government, but by a net OF fsd
erations which are this result Of free
contracts OF associations.
Affairs concerning all alike will be
decided oy the associations interest
ed after free discussion.
The people will assemble from
time to time without distinction
OF sex, not to make laws to tic
their own hands with, but, as the
cases may occur, to decide in mat
ters of public interest, to appoint
those fitted to carry out their deci
sions and to listen to their reports
The external appearance OF this
commune is materially different
from that Of our towns and villages
In the cities the narrow streets anc
the tenement houses will be gradu
ally destroyed. In their stead vii
