DECLINE OF SOCIALISM.

ono feature Of the recent elections
was the loss Of strength by the Social
lists In Massachusetts,, According to
Boston papers, in the last legislature
they controlled three seats, and they
claimed that this year they would add
to the number Instead OF gaining,
however, they lost two seats, and VIII
be represented in the Legislature Of 1904
by only n single member II Is suggested
that one reason for loss Of strength Ia,
that there was no coal strike and no
lack Of fuel; for 1t Is argued, that the
Industrial conflicts that take place, in
nuencc many citizens In the direction
Of Socialism. They think that II under
the prevailing Industrial conditions, la
Dor troubles cannot be settled without
making the general public suffer, 1t Is
better to have a change in those con-
dtlons, They argue, it Is supposed,
that If coal mine owners and miners
cannot supply the people with coal II
would be better for the state to conhs-
cate the property, and do the mining.
And thus Socialism grows There is
much reason in this argument. As long
as everything IN the Industrial machlr-
cry works satisfactorily, there can be
no general demand for change, but II
the industrial engines are out of order,
It Is but natural for the people to turn
to the political centers IN order to find
out, IL something Is not wrong there.

there was a reassertion OF Democratic
strength IN Maryland which Mr.. Cor

to suggest that Democrats, as well as
Republicans, cheerfully assisted at the

radical for any party at the present

presage return of the old conservative
