Among the Merrymakers
The Peculiar Passenner

AS one of the big red cars on the Went
worth avenue line was approaching Fifty
fifth street the other afternoon a large
well dressed woman left her seat and
Let me off at this street, SIR" she said
imperiously to the conductor
The car stopped
Everybody watched her as she stepped
Catching up her skirts with one hand,
she grasped the railing with the other
And got off the car with her face to-
ward the front end
Left handed, b'goshi' exclaimed the
conductor in an awe-struck Whisper

FRIDAY, OCT. "A. 1904
BASED ON IGNORANCE

Such an address as that delivered by
Eugene V. Debs, Socialist candidate
for the presidency, reveals to a public
knowing too little of what passes
through the mind of the masses the
terrible thickness of a stream of igno-
rance appealed to by the socialistic
idea. This really pathetic ignorance
lies at the bottom of the socialistic
movement. A few of those who join in
it are simply excitable people of ex-
treme notions and unbalanced judg-
ment; but a great number are men de-
sirous of the advancement of the race,
in harmony with justice and clemency
and humanity and only bereft by rea-
son of their lack of grasp of large sub
jects and their lack of familiarity with
economic and political history, of
means for sitting the wheat from the
chaff and perceiving how utter a delu-
sion the socialistic scheme must be.
The socialistic propaganda prospers
largely on the appeal from class to
class. This is the substance of most
of Mr.. Debs' speeches. 1t is the old
cry from hatred to hatred. The work.
ingman is told that he is poor While
others are rich that he is the creator
of all wealth, that he could have his
private car and his steam yacht if JUS
tice were done, and the immense dis
parity between his conditions and those
of the millionaire incites him to wrath.
He probably does not believe all these
fairy tales, but he does think that in
justice is done, and that he receives
less than his share. The incessant
preaching of this class gospel weakens
apt to prove too much for his judg-
ment.
Der that every argument, by whomever
advanced, which makes the appeal
from class to class is evil. The world
is never going to be regenerated that
way. Out of envy, hatred, malice
and all uncharfta bleness" no good can
come. Human nature is substantially
uniform from highest to lowest. The
capitalist and the laboring man are
made of the same sort of stuff There
is just about as much justice. goodness
and desire to do right at one end Of the
scale as at the other. The great COR
rupter Of humanity is idleness. AS
there is more idleness among the rich
than among the poor. so they are apt
to have the common, homeIy virtues,
by which alone life can be made beau
tiful and strong, obscured or impaired.
Change the places of the two, and the
poor man in the seat of the rich will
comport himself in precisely the same
way, if intelligence be equal.
This fact demolishes the entire class
appeal. 1t overthrows the argument
upon which the socialist mainly relies
1t also upsets the whole socialistic
scheme. For, human nature being
pretty uniform and stable, you will
have exactly the same sort of govern
nent with one class in control as an
other; and the government under the
sociaiistie idea would differ from the
present only in an enormous increase
OF power without any corresponding
Increase ia virtue. The result would
be graver and more intolerable abuses
