The Steady, Progressive Growth Of
Socialism.

Socialism presents few spect-
;acular features in it's develop
ment. There is nothing in it of
the mushroom quality which
distinguished our own Single
Tax and Populist movements
with their sudden up-springing
their large vote Immediately OBJ
tanned, and their quick disin-
'tegration. The Socialist move
iment grows with comparative
.steadiness, and never on the
whole loses any ground once
gained. The mathematician
would plot its curve as an ascend
ing parabola; he would reckon it
in the terms of geometric pro-
,gression. Thus, the next five
years are almost sure to witness
ia growth equal, perhaps, to that
of the last twenty-five. Some
very pretty char is can be traced
by the studiousminded exhibiting
the past increase from nil to the
present stage; and from them
conclusions can be drawn re-
specting the probable duration
of capitalism.
Persecution has never had any
iother effect on the movement
than immensely to slim ulate it's
growth. Contemporary events
in Russia only reinforce the les
,sons that Bismarck had to learn
iin Germany and that France
has witnessed since 1871. The
'wiping out of a whole generation
eof French Socialists resulted
gmerely in mastering ten revolu-
rtionaries where one stood before.
AT the last German election all
Fthe powers of government boy
scott and coercion, of frantic ap-
ypeals to God and fatherland,
resulted in gain of 8 per cent,
an the Socialist vote,-a numer-
lcal increase of about 100000
ballots.
In England, right in the teeth
,of the com bined Liberal and
conservative opposition. Soc
aalists are gaining, gaining, gain
ing. Trade-unionism there, as
in America, is rapidly swinging
Unto line with out-and-out Soci-
+alistlc demands. Victor GRAY

commons as the first Socialist
TO be elected without the help. of
any other party augurs for the
immediate future large in
crease Of Socialist members in
the House. Jamaica now has a
Socialist governor in the person
,of Sydney Olivier, who for over
twenty-five years has been a
Fabian. Bavaria was swept by
Socialism at the last election
'twenty-one seats were gained in
addition to the twelve already
held. The Finnish Diet recent
ly had to admit eighty Socialists.
ten of whom were women.
Spa4 lacks here for the whole
story. Even in its fragmentary
form it is tremendously portent
,ous of the new era which is al
ready opening to our eyes.
Here in America the move
nnent has expanded with phen-
romenad rapidlty. The vote. be-
ginning with hardly more than
1000 ia 1888, had by 1900 risen
ITO nearly 100000. In 1902 it
Nvas 22e. 1852. In 1904 over 400, 900
votes were counted; probably
twice as many were cast.

old-party politicians. From
