coal miners get $3.50, So, 81 and

The main body of working men ev-

the wages they are getting, and
such being the case, why do they
listen to the oily talk of labor agiti-

FRIDAY, DECEMBER rs
A

The danger of grade crossings was
again forcibly brought before the
public Wednesday night, when a horse
and wagon were struck at Smith
street and the occupant of the wagon
and the horse were instantly killed.
With trains rushing along at the rate
of fifty and sixty miles an hour,
crossings at grade are dangerous
enough in the country, but in cities
they should not be allowed to exist.
The accident Wednesday night
shows that ven safety gates will no.
prevent loss of life, although they
are vastly better than nothing at all.
The danger at Smith street has been
thought to be during the night, when
gate-tender is on duty, and efforts
have been made to secure all-night

man on duty until the rush hours Of
the evening are over, but it is now
evident that nothing less than the
complete abolition of the crossing al
grade OF this, the main thoroughfare
in the city, will answer
Now that a new bridge is being
built over the Raritan river, the rail
road officials should have arranged a
new grade, so as to afford relief for
this city. In the eyes Of corporations
however, a few hundred dollars is
worth more than all the lives that
may be lost as a result of their neg
lect.
If the matter should be taken up
there is little doubt but that the ely
and railroad could come to terms in
order to abolish the grade crossings.
Both sides could concede something,
complished. The state legislature

EUGENE v.
DEBS.
Former Socialist
Candidate
For
Ole
Labor
Question
And
Humanity
the Presidency

~v HE labor question, broadly stated and understood, is the
question of HUMANITY. On it depends the welfare of
ALL the people. The capitalist system, which springs from
feudal times, has divided society into two casses-capital
lists and the workers-and these classes are pitted against
each other in WORLDWIDE STRUGGLE. Unfortunately for the
worldngmen the capitalists own the tools, which in these days consist
of machinery. A different state of affairs existed a hundred years ago,
when men worked by hand. Then there were no milionaires AND
NO TRAMPS. Today we have about 1000 of the former and ap-
proximately 100000 of the latter.
There are 26,0O0,OOO working people in the United States at the
present time. Five million are women and $1,000 900 are children.
Having no tools Of their own, they are forced to enter the labor market,
COMPETING WITH EACH OTHER for a livelihood. They do
not sell themselves bodily but they sell ten and twelve hours of their
time each day for a stipend.
WITH THE WEALTH THEIR LABOR PRODUCES, MEN AND wo.
AND NEWPORT.
The capitalist class is unnecessary to society. Its members do alb
solutely nothing that is useful. Their function is to spend WHAT
THE WORKING CLASS PRODUCES.
Let me use Andrew Carnegie as an illustration. He is fully de-
veloped capitalist and therefore a fully developed parasite. Carnegie
owns or practically owns a great modern steel plant, in which 10000
men toll for a living. These TO- 900 men do the work and produce Car
negies wealth. Carnegie spends most of his time in Scotland and has
no more to do with the direction Of the steel industry in Pittsburg than
if he were on another planet. The same is true of the capitalist class
generally.
Politicians employed by capitalists endeavor to keep the working
men of America divided on ALLEGED ISSUES in which the labor
classes have no interest whatsoever. As long as they succeed in doing
this the capitalists will hold the rens of power. Both the Republican
and Democratic parties are capitalist parties. The Republican party
protects the interests of the Carnegies, the Rockefeners, the Morgans,
the Hills and all of the great trusts and corporations. The Democratic
party represents the small capitalists and the middle classes. IF
EITHER PARTY WINS the laboring man loses, because both enact
laws to protect capital.
Workingmen of all classes will secure justice only when they con-
troll the social machinery, Of which they are the greatest part.
THE MIDDLE CLASS is RAPIDLY DISAPPEARING, OWING TO
THE IMPROVEMENTS OF CAPITAL, AND 1T is ONLY A MATTER
OF TIME BEFORE ALL MEN OF THE 50 CALLED MIDDLE CLASS
WILL BE SOCIALISTS.

The Influence of Clothes

By GRACE GEORGE. Star of h New Play Clothes"
sTHE influence of clothes is so obvious that it will only be utter
ing truisms to discuss the subject, but the pity of it all ought
to rouse SOME SORT OF PROTEST against existing
conditions. And yet if we were to protest it would not be
against merely material circumstances. We would be brought face to
face with a psychological problem.
What chance has a poorly dressed man or woman of success when
brought into contact with normal people? If there is one influence In
all of civilization that counts more than anything else It's CLOTHES.
What chance has any one who is poorly dressed? From the chorus
girl to the business woman, it is all the same philosophy that DOMI-
MATES THEM. Cant go to look for a job today. Haven't any swell
clothes" You can hear this along Broadway any time you care to
listen to the legions Of aspiring actresses.
eff you haven't swell clothes you needn't come round" might be
the motto hung over every aspirant's door, and the FALSE WORTH
of its significance is one of the saddest facts we have to deal with in our
everyday life. If she did look for a job poorly dressed would she get

There is only one way to kill the
Prudential : Public Service = Fidelity
Trust combination, and that is to
kill it,. 1t is too colossal to kill all
at once, and a start has got to be
made. Middlesex started last fall
and succeeded in turning down the
best friend the corporations had in
the legislature. In defeating Senator
Jackson, the people knew they were
going over to the minority side of the
senate, but they preferred to be rep

If he could control no patronage,
than have a man who paid allegiance
first to the bosses and the corpora
lions and then to his constituents.
Middlesex Is not going to suffer
as a result of her minority repre-
sentation. Last fall she had every
thing to gain and nothing to lose by
the defeat of the ring" and she has
gained a reputation as being opposed
to bossism, at least. The good work
has only just begun.
