Hogs-Receipts. $500: shipments. $500.
Combined receipts of hogs for five days
indicate an increase Of about 5000 over the
same time last week, and $500 over the
corresponding time year ago. The re-

an increase of about $500 over week ago

day were I'm the arrivals. The market

Sheep-Receipts, 400: shipments, 200. Thus
far this week the receipts of sheep and
lambs show an increase of 150O over the
same time last week. The receipts to-day
were not large, but about the same as a
week ago. Buyers asked concessions in
price, and statesmen were reluctant in ac-
cepting a decline. but were finally forced
TO do so to make a clearance. Sales for
the most part were about 25c under prices
current earlier in the week. The popular
price for spring lambs appears TO be s.,
and there were few reported above that
price. There were no yearlings reported
above 81, and fancy old sheep sold high
as 1913. The top, however. was practically
$50. and stockers sold as low as $3.50 Quo

the doctor. "This thing Edith speaks OF

to the fact that class monopoly of the
machinery of production meant slavery
for the mass"
"Let me see if I can recall it." said
Edith. cit begins this way: Every
where men, women and children stood in
the market-place crying to the Masters
of the Bread to take them to be their
servants, that they might have bread.
The strong men said: 20 Lords of the

arms and our legs; see how strong we
are. Take us and use us. Let us dig for

Haven't you some real money to
show u.s." said Edith, something be-
sides these papers-some gold and sill
yer such as they have in the museums?'
It was not customary in the nineteenth
century for people to keep large SUPPLIES
of ready money in their houses, but for
emergencies had little stock of it in
my safe, and in response to Edith's re-
quest took out a drawer containing
several hundred dollars in gold and
emptied it on the table.
"How pretty they are!" exclaimed
Edith, thrusting her hands into the pile
Of yellow coins and blinking them to-
gether. "And is it really true that if you
only had enough Of these things, no
matter how or where you got them, men
and women would submit themselves to
you and let you make what use you
pleased of them?"
"Not only would they let you use
them as you pleased, but they would be
extremely grateful to you for being 80
good as to use them instead Of others:
The poor fought each other for the priv
ilege of being the servants and under

therefore, the chattel slave was more
dignifed and heroic figure than the hire
ling of your day who called himself a
free worker.
1t was possible for the slave to rise
in soul above his circumstances and be
q philosopher in bondage like Epictecus,
but the hireling could not scorn the
bonds he sought. The abiectness OF his
position was not merely physical but
mental. In selling himself he had nec-
essarily sold his independence of mind
also. Your whole industrial system
seems in this point OF view best and
most fitly described by word which
you oddly enough reserved to designate
particular phase Of self-selling prac-
ticed by women.
labor for others in the name of love
and kindness, and labor with others for
common end in which all are mutually
interested, and labor for it's own ioy, are
alike honorable, but the hiring out of
our faculties to the selfish uses or 9TH
ers, which was the form labor generally
took in your day, is unworthy Of human
nature. The Revolution for the first
time in history made labor truly honor
able by putting it on the basis Of frater-
nal cooperation for a common and
equally shared result: Until then it was
at best but shameful necessity"

they said, take us to be your servants

wit, how great is our knowledge; our
minds are stored with the treasures Of

osophies. To US has been given clearer
vision than to others and the power of per-
suasion that we should be leaders of the
people, voices to the voiceless, and eyes
to the blind. But the people whom we
should serve have no bread to give us.
Therefore, Masters of the Bread, give US
to eat, and we will betray the people to
you, for we must live. We will plead TO:
you in the courts against the widow and
the fatherless. We will speak and write
in your praise, and with cunning words
confound those who speak against you

Socialism and Slavery,
8y Robert Blatchfoad.

The misconceptions of Socialism most
and foolish. Mr. Herbert Spencer wrote article called
The Coming Slavery" think he is responsible for the
much-quoted opinion that Socialism would result in
odous form of slavery than the world has yet known.
Clearly, there things which Mr. Herbert Spencer like
Of critics. has failed understand One Of these
things Socialism; other the condition existing
eiety.
deny that Socialism would result in any form of slavery
ALL that the most odious form slavery
lists present in this socalled free country Let
First Socialism Mr. Spences idea appears to be that
under Socialism the State would compel to work against
their will, or in occupations uncongenial to them.
This mistake The State would not compel any to
work It would only enable all to work. and to live
peace and comfort by their labor
If did choose work he would not be coerced.
He could do either his fair share of the work of the
ty for his fair share of the wealth. he could
cline to work.
But if he declined to work he would certainly have to
starve or leave the State.
Now want to point out to you, before any farther
that things at present live uxurousy and
do work, many do great deal of work and live
wrechedly and nearly threequarters Of million of
who willing to work get work to do.
To hear people talk about slavery under Socialism,
would suppose freedom now Robert Ingerso says

The man who ''never joins an organ
isation" has not yet learned the value
Of social action. Although he is deriv-
ing it's benefits every day Of his HE, in
hundreds Of ways reaping comforts and
conveniences which would never be his
were it not for the cooperative, social
action Of his fellows, he fails to see that
these benefits are derived by co-opera-
ton and goes on his way firm be-
leiver in individual effort.

our mothers, who eat more than

women, our mothers, who eat moro than
we."
"And the Masters of the Bread, hav-
ing taken for their use or pleasure such
of the men, the women, and the little
ones as they saw fit, passed by. And
there was left great multitude in the
market place for whom there was no
bread.'"
"Ah!" said the doctor, breaking the
silence which followed the ceasing of
Edith's voice, sit was indeed the last
refinement Of indignity put upon human
nature by your economic system that it
compelled men to seek the sale of them
selves. Voluntary in real sense the sale
was not, of course, for want or the fear
of it left no choice as to the necessity Of
selling themselves to somebody, but as
to the particular transaction there was
choice enough to make it shameful.
They had to seek those to whom to offer
themselves and actively to procure their
own purchase. In this respect the SUBJ
mission of men to other men through
the relation of hire was more abiect than
under slavery resting directly on force.
In that case the slave might be COM
pelled to yield to physical duress, but he
could still keep mind free and resent
ful toward his master; but in the relation
OF hire men sought for their masters and
begged as favor that they would use
them, body and mind, for their profit or
pleasure. To the view of us moderns.

others. Give us therefore plentifully OF
your bread, and we will speak to the
people, that they be still and trouble
you not with their murmurings because
of hunger. In the hame OF God the Fa-
ther we will forbid them to claim the
rights Of brothers, and in the name of
the Prince Of Peace we will preach your
law of composition"
"And above all the clamor Of the men
we're heard the voices of multitude of
women crying to the Masters of the
Bread: Pass us not by, for we must
also eat. The mon are stronger than we,
but they eat much bread while we eat
but little, 60 that though we be not so
strong yet in the end you shall not lose
it you take US to be your servants in
stead OF them. And if you will not take
us for our labor's sake, yet look upon
us; we are women, and should be fair in
your eyes. Take Us and do with us &C.
cording to your pleasure, for We must
eat.".
"' And above all the chaffering of the
market, the hoarse voices Of the men,
and the shrill voices of the women, rose
the piping treble of little children cry
ing: "Take us to be your servants, for
the breasts Of our mothers are dry and
our fathers have no bread for us, and we
hunger. We are weak, indeed, but we
ask 90 little, SO very little, that at last
we shall be cheaper to you than the men,
our fathers, who eat so much, and the
