recent stock exchange movements will
note the violent ups and downs of the

the inside knowledge the pool pos

movements bearing no relation what

tective tariff, to which they give their

billion dollars year in extor,ion.
OF the capacity or inclination for
physical effort there is not now nor
has there been for ages any lack.
Mental activities are mainly developed
along special lines in which narrow
field geniuses have never been want
ing. But in the power to generalize in
the broader field of economics and so
cial science the race has but compare
lively little to its credit in the past.
And, today, in the midst of probably
the greatest awakening of all time on
the subject we find varied assert
ment of specialists in sociological
arena, each frantically trying, but
vainly so, to satisfy the cravings of
lect of man in quest of institutions
that offer no hindrance to full real
ization of the embodiment of man in
the image of his maker.
Socialism would prove to be the
grave of the hearts hopes of the high
err embodiment, because it offers an
escape from the stern responsibilities
and duties of life. To think that with
out the pressure of necessity or the
hope of the special rewards of distinc-
ton, honOrs and individual emolu-
ment that human progress would con-
tinue, is to ignore the lesson of his
tory, and substitute an imaginary be-
ing for the creature that in his blund-
ering career has shown capacity for
the extremes of good and bad.

SOCIALISM

The end that challenges the efforts
of mankind, than which no higher is
conceivable, is the development of
man himself, upward and onward to-
ward perfection. Human institutions
must be judged by their efficacy as
agencies for the higher development
of man. The various principles ap-
plicable to human government must
stand or fall by this test. Therefore,
human beings of normal endowments,
intellectual and moral, have a common
interest in sociological developments,
as no other field of human endeavor
can possibly offer SO rich reward as
awaits him Who solves the problems
of sociology in the light of the father
hood of God and the brotherhood of
man.
In entering upon this field of
Investigation it becomes necessary for
the individual to divest himself of
kindred and country in order that the
mind may be free to act untrammeled
and see actualities uninfuenced by
conditions of birth, habit and environ
ment, something difficult for all and
impossible to many.
In order that space in these col
umns may be profitably devoted to so
vast subject it becomes necessary
to pass, untouched upon, the crude
experiments of ages of heartache,
bloodshed and misery that marks the
tortuous course of humanity through
centuries and cycles, during which civ
ilizations have risen and fallen, leav-
ing behind them indisputable evidence
of the marvellous physical and intel
lectual development of individuals,
races and nations, which persisted
from the face of the earth, self de-
stroyed, because of their ignorance of
the correlation of social forces, and
their failure to discover and apply the
law of balance in the sphere of wealth.
The past rises in solemn warning to
the present against repetition of the
fate that follows pride, self conceit,
and tyranny when the more fortunate
members of society are able to govern
without responsibility to society as a
whole.
Students of sociology having noticed
the inherent incapacity of individuals
or classes to govern justly, and hav-

ing fully evolved the principles upon

which just government can securely
rest, namely, the will of the governed
as expressed by majority vote con-
ferring the powers of the whole upon
individuals to act as agents of the

lions holding their tenure of Office for
brief periods only, when the individ-
ual again becomes clothed with SOW

accumulated experience, men. are
found who advance plausible argu-
ments in favor of extending the prin-
ciples of democracy, so efficacious in
the domain of government, into the
domain of wealth. Such men contend
with undoubted sincerity, and intense
ardor that private control of the
means of labor is as inimical to the
welfare of the individual, as the pri-
vate control of government has ever
proven to be. This is the fundamental
argument in favor of socialism
The argument put forward by the
socialist, however, is defective in the
sweeting application they give it.
They include under public ownership
all forms of wealth that furnish en-
ployment to it's owners as we'll as to
employees, and commit the blunder of
extending principle that is efficacious
in dealing with monopolies beyond it's
legitimate domain.
The sweeping claim that socialism
would prove remedy for the evils
and inequalities that now exist is
based upon the assumption that the
system itself does not contain inherent
evils that would offset the good sought
to be accomplished, or perhaps so
weaken and enervate the average indi-
vidual as to enable the few master
spirits to acquire undue power over
the balance and the system eventuate
in despotism more complete and
absolute than ever before existed.
Socialism as mental concept of a
wealth producing and distributing ma
chine would be perfect if each of the
component parts of the machine could
be nodded into form and adjusted to
place and motive power applied as to
a printing press. But unfortunate for
the benevolent intention of good men
who seek millennium through its
means, the human material of which
it is proposed to construct the ma
chine is in no wise adapted for the
work proposed.
The handicap of social progress is
largely found in the intellectual in
dolence Of the race. SO positive and
universal is this trait, that few mas
ter minds in which superior intellect
is goaded into great activity by lust
for power are able to rule, rob and
plumber the masses receiving not only
the consent of those plundered, but
their applause as well. Only a small
percentage of mankind will think, or
perform intellectual work if not driven |
to do so by necessity or induced to
do so by an enormous premium in the |
form of recompence that will afford
