Arraignment of Socialism by One of the
Most Caustic Writers In America.
(By M. Grier Kidder.)

(By M. Grier Kidder)
Every rascal is Dante enough to suggest
an Inferno which every fool is Dore enough
to advertise. To the majority, thought is
a stranger, or a white elephant, and to the
variety of rascality and the vagaries of
folly We owe the galloping nightmares of
today. While castle-building is the relaxa-
ticn of intelligence, it is the occupation of
Ignorance; the first doubts till reason con-
vinces, the second bowls: Lord I believe;
help thou mine unbelief"
Socialism may be defined as faith faith
cred by wish, manufactured premise in
labor with impossible conclusion, expecta-
ton sired by hope and damned by certainty,
a o-the-wisp in the cemetery of intelli
gence which has stampeded all the fools who
were not battered to the corpse of pre-
cedent 1t is a species of emasculated An
archy to which it is related as varioloid to
small pox, harmless theory to devilish
practice.
Human credulity is infinite, and II you
make up your mind to believe an absurdity,
you can believe it as easily as If you hadn't
mind enough to doubt 1t. ignorance Is not
necessarily the mother of devotion nor in
telligence the father of doubt. OF the
mind we know, relatively, nothing; literally,
next to nothing. Psychologists grope their
way until confronted by that veil that sepa-
rates the proved from the improved, known
territory from Don't Know Land; that twi-
light realm of hope, despair, fear, faith
speculation, doubt and dogma. Folly rushes
in where wisdom fears to tread, and to the
vulgar, the Promised Land is realized by de-
sire even If "Jordon rolls between"
Mystery invites alike, the investigation of
reason and the faith of fancy
| have never met a Socialist who could
define Socialism or could believe In my
definition. He seems to think that, as in

Reply to the Unquiet Hosts

to explain his creed the only man know
of who considers you personal when you try
to quench your thirst for little useful in
formation. No sane man looks for agree
ment between poverty and wealth in po-
litical economy; man is the creature of his
environments, the slave Of his surroundings,
the essence of his association; change of
state Is change of nature. Nothing Is
naturally jealous of something; envy is the
homage that failure pays to success; he that
never covets never emulates.
Socialists agree that rent, interest and
patent laws are Ubiquitous. I must pay the
carpenter wages for building my house, but
he shouldn't pay me rent for living in it;
l pay you mule hire, but you shouldn't pay
me money hire. OF course. they believe in
cooperation; what poor man does not?
They can't see that the truest benevolence
Is the benevolence that guarantees one
against the benevolence of others Poverty
Is not only uncomfortable; 1t Is dishOnor
able; it is dangerous; there is nothing more
threatening than an empty stomach; destitu-
ton is the prolific mother of temptation.
Yet poverty, like bad health, is in the ma
jority Of cases self-inlicted An unmarried
man receives five dollars a day for ten
years, wastes it on whiskey and other lux
uries, then assails existing conditions"
And of such is the kingdom of Socialism!
cross Wealth, like other good things, cost
something; IL this wasn't SO there would be
no premium on good things. For my poverty
blame myself; ate my cake; 1t was good,
and digestion thereof perfect. Now l con-
sole myself with the Consciousness, that
while Rockefeller can't eat what he likes,
could, IL could get It. 1 have never had
dyspepsia, and under existing conditions"
don't believe I'll catch it.
Well, suppose Socialism is realized will
our office-holders be kept honest by their
love for their constituents? [ asked
Socialist that, and he said that under
Socialism there would be nothing to steal,
and said l thought So toe. So, you see,
we agree on some things, after all. These
politico-economic vertebrates lay great
stress on the amount of money man makes
dishonesty, and until they have decided
how much he can make honestly, the
Socialist Party will remain conscentiously
poverty stricken. To do Socialists justice,
they are necessary in Russia, Spain, and
Italy; so would an epidemic be. In short,
Socialism is necessary where there can be
no change without Improvement no revOlu-
ton without evolution. But after the Gov
erpment Is subverted, Socialism's solicitude
should cease; the time Is then ripe for those
who can build up and keep up. l know
somewhat of my text because l was In San
Francisco when the Government was Social
ism intensified by the Rev. Peter C. Yorke.
We had to put everybody in Jail to stop Co
operative improvement. If there was ever a
time when the workingman had his fling 1t
was then. II there was ever prima facie
evidence that rascals can lead fools to the
satisfaction of both, this unhappy city fur
nished 1t. 1t Is noteworthy as being the
OILY case on record when Socialists recog-
nized their need OF chaplain.

LABOR NEWS

During the year 1907, new indus
tries were reported in the south, com
pared with GAIL in 1906, which was
the best record ever made. The lead
ing states were Texas, 1888; Okla
homa, 1914. and Virginia, Tennessee,
North Carolina, Alabama and Arkansas,
from 400 to $50 each.
Figures taken from the annual re-
port of the state commissioner of la
Dor of Missouri indicate that in that
state are 642 labor unions, of which
20S are in st. Louis. SO in Kansas City,
80 in st. Joseph and 800 outside of these
cities. In st. Louis there are 1850
members of organized labor.
A measure has been enacted in Ten.
nessee which makes it unlawful to
allow any female child under sixteen
years to work in any manufacturing
establishment more than sixty two
hours in any one week in 1908, or more
than sixty-two hours in 1909, and after
Jan. 1, 1910, more than sixty hours.

three-year-old Paul Palko of Standard
avenue, sat on the Fort Wayne tracks
nursing a bruised toe yesterday after
noon while two feet away from him
stood the huge engine of an extra east
bound freight brought to a stop there
by the engineer who saw the little boy
in the track apparently oblivious of his
danger.
When the engine stopped the engin-
eer climbed down and walking ahead
picked up the boy and asked what he
was doing there. The little fellow
rubbed his eyes. spreading the dirt
on his face over cleaner portions of his
face and said; E

'I stubbed my toe on stone and

But didn't you see the engine. see

you," said the the grimy engineer as he
held the boy closer to him.
THE engine won't run over me- cause
it stopped. Say mister, your hands are
dirty. Have you got any little boys at
home" said the boy looking up into the
engineers eyes.
You bet have sonny. and thought
of them when I saw you in the track"
said the engineer speaking more to
himself than to the boy. The latter did
not understand but continued his pratt
tie.
Give me a ride, mister" he pleaded.
The engineer pinched his cheeks and
told him to run home to mamma and
set the boy down.
Then he climbed back into his engine
and opened the throttle. watching the
boy who sat down on the right of way
holding his sore toe and watching the
engineer who waved at him from the
cab.

Heart toH Heart
Talks.
you ARE RICH
BY EDWIN a. NYE.
Copyright. 1905. by Edwin A. Nys.

you ARE RICH.
Are you In good health, and have you
family to support?
Then you are rich.
Health is wealth It Is more than
capital, more than labor. 1t is both
combined. 1t is ability to do, oppor-
tunity to earn, chance to win. With
health the poorest man is rich; without
it the richest man is poor.
The chief trouble with most of us is
this: We do not realize our riches. We
do not know how to inventory the best
things of life In our invoice we put
down some things-as money, for in
stance-too high and others-as health,
for instance-at too low price.
We repeat, If you are healthy, strong,
you are well to do, and If in addition
you have a family dependent upon
your efforts you are rich.
At the first thought you might be dis
posed to put your family down in your
invoice as an incumbrance, liability
instead of an asset. Man alive, there's
where you make your mistake!
Did you ever see an oriental woman
carrying a jug of water on her head :!
What poise and gracefulnessi The
burden she bears does that, and like
wise your burden should only serve to
give you poise and strength.
But, besides
You need, all of us need, an incentive
something to live for-an inducement,
The man without the family burden
may rejoice in his liberty for a time.
but the day will come when the vanity
Of such liberty will appear. There will
be no stern necessity upon him, no
heart compelling force. He will have
no divine call to do and suffer. AS the
years shall multiply the emptiness of
life will appall him.
But you-you have given hostages to
fate. You have inducement Your
heartstrings are steady because they
are harnessed to your loved ones! You
have something to live for. work for,
die for Look into the answering face
of your wife, your child. Is it not so?
You are rich
Sometimes the way may be dark and
rock strewn upward. If there is joy,
there are also fear and anxiety. There
must be rooftree for wife and babies
and food and raiment and something
over for gentle living. And the cost of
bare necessities is large. And some
people seem to get on better than you.
But-do they get the best out Of life?
That's the touchstone
Can't you see? You are rich.

The most comprehensive political
handbook ever issued in Indiana has
just been sent out to each county chair
man in Indiana and members of the
county central committee by Carl W.
Riddick, secretary of the Republican
state committee. The book contains a
fund of information invaluable to poll
ticians and political writer's. 1t is
larger than similar books compiled by
the state committee of former years.
1t is divided in five parts-republican
organization, the nation, the state, the
legislature and general political infor-
mation-and contains figures and facts
in more detailed and accurate form than
any former book of its kind.
