Merry Xmas and happy New Year

lItis the efforts of this kind by the
comrades that will make the cause a
success; every comrade in the state
could do as much if he would. All
THAI is necessary is to throw off that
old capitalistic idea of can't' and
get out and do little hustling. If
all our Socialist readers would do as
much as a few of the earnest workers
in less than 90 days the News
would have the largest circulation
in the northwest; and not only this
but you would receive the financial
assistance from the non Socialist and
at the same time carry the educa-
tional propaganda to the ones who
must be reached. Awake comrades
Editor.l
Montana news., 1904-12-28

That the people are awaking to
the idea of Socialism, is demon
strated by the insistence they mani
fest by asking for information, and
the first and paramount question
seems to be, How can II be intro
ducedf 1t is a pertinent question
and deserves an honest answer.
The best part of the doctrine is
that it does not require any lies to
introduce it to the people. They
generally admit that it is good, and
what they want, but there is some
thing about it that makes them think
it should be applied at once; like
the changing of a soul in the twink
ling of an eye.
They fail to understand that it
must come through the same pro-
cess that other revolutions have
come. The gradual teaching of
Luther and other reformers taught the
people the selhshness of the church
of England and the church of
Rome. and Professionalism was the
result. Gradual political training
taught the founders of our republic
to see the dishonesty of King
George, and to despise the despot-
ism of an aristocracy; and they did
not wait for their leaders to unfold
to them a definite plan of
government before they began the
revolution. They believed in the
wisdom of the men who inspired
them with the courage to undertake
the battle for independence; and
the results are sufficient proof of the
soundness of their reasoning. And
the conditions that confront the
common people of the United States
are identical, with one notable ex-
ception, and that is the ballot. We
have not yet lost the right to use
that weapon; and it is the most
potent weapon in the hands of hon.
est men that is known. The time
may come when even that mighty
power will be taken from us. The
political sharks are threatening to
Montana news., 1904-12-28

of humanity. Ye parasites, know
this: The finger of scorn of every
honest man, woman and child is
pointed at you.
You would condemn innocent
children to work in the mines. where
the smoke and poisonous gases at
many times almost equals the ortho-
dox hell as represented by our mod
ern preachers--that you may wax
fat on the product of their toll. |
wonder that the everything God had
not paralyzed the hand that marked
the ballot, and caused the miserable
carcas to shrivel up until Rider
Haggard's She" would look like
the fat woman in circus beside you.
You have no place among men.
You are burden on the back OF
suffering humanity, and a wart on
the face of nature.

Montana news., 1904-12-28

abridge the rights of the negroes to-
day. There have been attempts
to agitate the idea of DISTINGUISHING
the illiterate of all classes; and these
straws point out the trend of un-
checked political power.
Socialism means equal rights to
all. 1t means equality in fact, not
in the musty folds of a constitution
that through political treachery has
become obsolete. 1t means that
the teachings of that sacred Parch-
ment shall become the guide to fut-
ure greatness, as it was originally
intended to do; and the application
of the economic reforms taught by
Socialism will re-establish firmly
and for all time the doctrines con-
tanned in that time honored docu-
ment.
Political parties are not going to
die out in day. There will be the
same strife, the same lying, the
same dishonest efforts on the part of
the dominant class of the present to
succeed themselves; and after defeat
we will see the same old re-organiza-
ton, with new issues to entrap the
voter. The fight will be bitter, but
when the people have tasted the
sweets of self government. when
they have found that they are a part
of the government established by
and for themselves, and that every
thing belongs to them, then self-in-
terest will forever prevent the ruling
of any party again.
The greatest trial will be the re-
formation of the great host of mar
row minded asses that will flock to
the fold for refuge and to concoct
new schemes for plundering the
commonwealth.
Blood will tell.

News
From Headquarters.

The following donations have
been made toward paying off the
old debt standing against the state
organization: John Beard 81. 80,
w. II. Pierce S., Local Butte S.,
Local Anaconda So. so, total SIS. SO.
Local Butte reports the expulsion
of Patrick Leamy for violating his
pledge by working for the demo-
cratic ticket.
Locals wishing to make any
amendments to the constitution will
please forward proposed amend
ments to headquarters as soon as
possible, as a new supply of con-
stitutions will be printed soon.
Local Butte has always held the
distintion of being the largest local
in the state. In November Local
Livingston was second, having 7
members less in good standing than
Butte. The comrades in Butte had
better look to their laurels and be
active. Judging from the orders for
stamps from Local Livingston, it
looks as if they intended being
ahead of Butte this month. This
brings to us the question, where is
Great Falls, Helena and Missoula |?
The spring elections will soon be
upon us, and it is necessary that the
locals in the cities begin to plan
their campaigns. Everywhere pos
sible the Socialists must be in the
field with full ticket. If we intend
to be the second party in 1906 we
Montana news., 1904-12-28

must win prestige in the city cleo
tons. This calls for greater efforts
in organization. Furthermore, we
must have dues paying member
ship of at least two thousand before
we can hope to be the second party
in the state.
Our candidate for governor, Com
rade O'Malley, received S,4sI votes
which would indicate that there are
3,43I philisophically class conscious
Socialists in Montana. surely it is
possible to get 1000 of these s,4SI
philosophical class conscious So
cialists into the party organization.
Go after everyone whom you know
to be a thorough Socialist, give
them an application card, and get
them into the organization.
Organization, good sound, strong
organization is what is required.
The day of the free lance propa-
gandist is past. Do the propaganda
work through the local, use system,
develop organization, and better re-
suits will be achieved.
The holidays will soou be over,
and it is hoped that the comrades
throughout the state will turn their
attention to organization. We are
in hopes that an organizer will be
started on the road about the end
of January, but that all depends on
what support headquarters receives
from you.
In the meantime strengthen your
local.

INTERESTING TO AMERICANS.

Western CanaGa viii Soon Become
the Supply Depot for Wheat for
Great Britain.
During the past yeur about $4,000
Americans went from the United
States to Canada. Most OF these set
tied upon farm lands, and the writer
Is informed by agents of the Cana
dian Government that the greatest
success has followed the efforts OF
nearly all. To their friends on this
hide of the boundary line the fullest
assurance Is given of the prosperity
that Is in store for them. There will
always be a splendid market for all
the grain, cattle, and other produce
that can be raised in Western Can
ada, and with the advantages offered
Of a free homestead of 100 acres Of
land, and other lands which may be
bought cheaply, an excellent climate,
splendid school system, educational
advantages of the best, what more
Is required. The husbandman gets
more return for his money than In
any other country in the world.
On the occasion of Sir Wilfred Lau-
rler's visit to the Corn Exchange, Lon
don, England, Colonel Montgomery, v.
D., made several important state
ments. "The function" he said, (which
you have Just been assisting In con-
nection with a kindred association has
doubtless shown you the Importance OF
the provision trade Of Liverpool in its
relationship with the Dominion, and
the enormous possibilities Of the fu-
ture development Of that trade. Well,
the grain trade of Liverpool has in
terests with Canada no less important
than those Of the provision trade.
When 1t is borne in mind that 80 per
cent Of the breadstuffs of this great
country has to be brought from
abroad, you will readily appreciate
with what great satisfaction we view
the large and steadily increasing sup
plies of grain which are annually avail
able for export from Canada, and l
challenge contradiction when l say
that OF the wheats we import
from Russia, India, the Pacific,
and the length and breadth Of
the United States, none gives more
general satisfaction, none Is more
generally appreciated than that
raised In the Province Of Mani
toba. We cannot get enough Of it,
and 1t is no exaggeration to say that
there are before us dozens of millers
who hunger for it. This Is not the
time to enter into statistical ques-
lions, but we look forward with con-
fldence to the time at which, with the
present rate Of progress, the Dominion
of Canada will have a sufficient sur
plus of wheat to render this country
Independent Of other sources of sup
ply. | think | may, with justihable
pride, remind you that this is the chief
grain market of the British Empire,
and through its excellent geographical
position, as well as through the enter
prise of its millers, 1t is now the sec
ond milling center in the world.
