London. Feb 19.-The pointed refer

He gave his life to them, and was
compelled, in his old age, blind and
ruptured. to exc out a miserable ex-
istence by collecting rubbers.
All the higher things of life were
locked, barred, and bolted against
him. He was crushed, humiliated.
robbed and beaten and thrown away,
in order that the capitalists might live
in palaces, and buy jewels for their

They deprived him of everything
that is worth living for, robbed OF

owned by the workers. This period
of small industries is followed by a
period of manufactures, or modern
or grand industry. The industrial
revolution was brought about by
series of inventions and geographi-
cal discoveries. These may be
enumerated as follows: Kay's fly
ing shuttle invented in 1868. Watts
steam engine, in 1909 Hargraves'
spinning jenny, in 1870, the water
frame of Richard Arkwright, in 1869
Crompton's mule, 1879, Cartwright's
loom in 1880, and Whitney's cotton
gin 10 1898. These inventions may
be called fathers of modern social
ism. Socialism is expected to come
as a result of evolution. as Karl
Marx says, brought about by the
intelligence of man. 1t is not
thought by modern socialists that it
will all come at once. No one ex-
spects to go to bed one night under
the capitalistic regime and wake up
in the morning with socialism in
full swim.
Naturally large monopolistic un-
dertakings will be socialized first.
Business after business will be abb
sorbed into the the cooperative
commonwealth.

Gambling
in Butte
Heinze Sheet Admits Its
CauSeleSS Attack on
Ambrose.

Several weeks ago the Heinze
News had a convulsion because
Alderman Ambrose, a lying So
cialist" said in the city council that
gambling was going on in Butte.
Not content with trying to prove its
assertion that Comrade Ambrose
was simply a liar it villifed social
lists and socialism with the choicest
assortment of the kings billingsgate
that its subservient hunkeyism could
muster. But, "Oh, consistency,
thou art a jewell" on January s,
while foundering in the mire of the
the Shadwell murder. it delivers
itself of the following startling and
incriminating confessions. His
(Shadwell's) mother says he left the
house with $500 in twenty-dollar
gold pieces and s7oo in bills. She
says he won more money at the NJ.
& M. He cashed in only SIT.
While he played he had $40 bill
in front of him with his checks.
The men about the table say that he
put the gold piece in his hip pocket
when he left" Again, Shadwell
had been winning money at cards
and the races since he came out of
the penitentiary last July. He was
in big game in the Elite on West
Park street Friday night and won
the $500 in gold that he showed to
his mother Saturday afternoon be-
fore he left the house" Oh, no,
there is no gambling going on in
Butte since the Heinze Sunday
school gang is runningit it. Yet these
statements are taken from a paper
that called Alderman Ambrose a
chronic agitator" a gallery play
fellow" who talked Just to get his
name in the papers," and to start
brawl."
The Heinze reign in Butte is the
most infamous brazen imposition
ever practiced on gullible working
men. Heinze poses as the leader
of the reform forces" and the op.
position to corporation rule with
the sang froid with which he cock:

Finished Product of Labor

an old blind man on the street car.
He was both blind and ruptured,
but he had a sack of old rubbers on
his back and he told me that he
made his living by collecting old
rubbers and selling them.

past and discovered he had been a
wage slave all his life, sowing that
others might reap.
There seemed to be just one brigh,

of socialism, Looking Backward, !"
was written in 1888 by Edward Bel
lamy. From the enormous sales of
this work was the beginning of that
phase of socialism which was called
nationalism. This movement was
absorbed by populism and labor
parties, which have eventually turn
ed toward socialism. Socialists like
to compare the growth of socialism
to that of Christianity; both have
found their chief strength among the
masses. Socialism has grown the
most rapidly of the two. Imprison-
ment and death give more zeal to
its adherents and it has become a
religion to many. Modern socialism
may be divided into two classifca-
tions, ethical and none ethical. The
ethical attemps to show that the
present order works cruelty and In
justice, and socialism which they
urge men to adopt will establish
righteous relations among men and
promote human welfare. They
think that an exposition of the bene-
fits of socialism and an appeal to
the conscience are the forces that
are needed to bring about the new
social order. The non-ethical sys-
TEN is not to be understood as anti
ethical. ethical soci ! is m
means that the ethical element plays
no part in the production of antici-
pated changes. These changes are
results of economic laws working in
society. The most that we can do
is to work with these social forces
accelerating them somewhat. This
non-ethical socialism is that of Karl
Marx its founder. The evolution
bringing socialism is described as
the development of completed in.
dustries into monopolies. We trace
the industries from the middle ages
in which production was carried on
in small shops. The tools were

the opium-like stupidity into which
the working class are drugged by
the brutal bull-dozing of the capital
ist class that they submit tamely,
to such disgraceful government,
when they know its every pretense

workingmen which way to vote.
The socialist is the only man who
stands fearlessly erect, and with
naughty contempt hurls the truth in
to the very teeth of this rabble. He
tells them their whole system is a
lie and an abortion that he hates it
as he hates the hell litter that it

McGinness the superintendent of
Heinze's SUNDAY school administra-

deathless renown as the apostle of
reform, by again violating the state
law more openly and shamelessly
than any criminal in Deer Lodge,
and allowing one of the most brutal
prize fights to take place with his
sanction that has ever disgraced the
West.

History of
Socialism
DR.. Willett, of Helena, Quotes Eminent
Authorities in the Realms
of Social Science.

Aristotle has said, The state is
by nature clearly prior to the indi-
vidual and to the family since the
whole is of necessity prior to the
part" The proof that the state
is a creation of nature and prior
to the individual when isolated is not
self sufficient, and therefore the
individual is like a part in relation
to the whole. But he who is unable
to live in society, or who has no
need because he is sufficient for
himself, must either be beast or a
god.
Socialism is that contemplated
system of industrial society which
proposes the abolition of private
property in the great material in
struments of production, and the
substitution therefor of collective
property: and advocates the collec-
tive management of production to-
gether with the distribution of social
income by society, and private prop
erty, in large proportion of this So
cial income.
The leaders of Socialism in the
present century have generally been
men of extraordinary capacity.
Some of the earliest English social
lists were Robert Owen, William
Clark, Graham Wallace. Among
the extremists was William Morris
who was prominently spoken of for
the position of poet laureate when il
was made vacant by the death OF
Tehhyson. The founders of social
ism were Karl Marx, Frederick
Engels, Herr Bebel, Ferdinand Las
sale about IS4S. The early think
ers of France were CADET, Saint
Simon, Fourier, Jules Guesde and
DR.. Paul Brousee.
Modern socialism began to make
itself felt in Belgium in 1867. One
of the earliest supporters was DR..
Caesar de Parpe. There were two
factions which united in 1879. This
was brought about by the two
socialists, Voorruit of Ghent, and
Volkshaus of Brussels. Holland
