ADMIRAL SCHLEY.

They re fighting the battle all over again :;
The big guns are booming once more;
And Sampson today fingers far, far away
! While Schley bears the brunt-as before.
| On the old fighter track the entire snarlng
pack
Have followed with hue and with cry
I'LL now, when he faces them all, they stink
back
From the sight Of brave Admiral Schley.
When heroes were needed he stood oh the
bridge
And met the proud navy of Spain.
He followed it on till the battle was won
And its vessels went down in the MAN.
When heroes are honored he's sighted and
spurned,
While others are praised to the sky.
He yet is deprived Of the glory he earned,
Our gallant old Admiral Schley.
But though he's insulted by puppets in
power,
The people are slow to forget
They only await more fortunate hour
To crown him in victory yet.
His fame is secure When the scroll is un-
His name will be written on high
Mid those of our gallant sea-6ghters of old,
Made brighter by Admiral Schley.
The man who is right can afford to repose
In the homage and love of the just;
To reckon that Time is his friend and his
foes
At last will 60 down in the dust
The victim of hate with assurance can wait
For wrong and detraction to die.
The world holds crown of esteem and re-
nOWn
For the brow of brave Admiral Schley.

1t seems to me that there is something
wrong somewhere about the prosperity
we hear so much about in the dailies, for
if it were so widespread as is claimed one

it without being told; and then if the man

If prosperity is so plentiful, that the char

Ifdrink is the cause of poverty, why is
it that there are hundreds of thousands OF

Thousand who drink like a fish are coz

Under what Carroll y. Wright would

Under what Carroll y. Wright would
term primitive methods, lone robber
would hold-up lonely traveller and take
possession of what property he had on
his person. Under modern methods the
successful! robber does not hold up his
victims at the point of pistol and take
their wealth, he gets control OF the money
of the people by wise legislation and then
when the people wish to use any money
he compels his victims at the point of ne
cessity to give a mortgage on their prop
erty and forever afterward collects per
cent of what the victim and his family
may produce.
Another modern method of the gentle
manly robber is to secure possession of
state and municipal franchises by meth
DDS which smell strongly of long green,
and then compels the public to pay him
tribute for the use of the very things the
public by natural right owned. The own
er of the modern business combination
known as the trust holds up the nation
at the point of necessity and compels ev-
erybody and everything to pay him trib-
ute. No industry has kept pace with the;
improved methods of robbery.
1t will be impossible to bring about the:
brotherhood of man until we can recog-
nize sisterhood of women. The rights
of men are no more sacred than are the
rights of women, and twill be next to
impossible to have free men unless born
of free women.

Home"
Can you see why the capitalists are so
anxious fo make the people believe that
the Socialists wish to destroy the little
'home"e Who would pay rent to CAPT
talist for the shanty "home" if he could
have good home of his own?
Just so long as workers, whether farm
ers or oeal-heavers, believe that the inter
ests of labor and capital are identical, just
SO long will the modern robber prosper.
