SOCIALISM CAPITALIZED

S THE Bible says house divided
N against itself cannot stand, we see
"a a serious menace to the cause of
Socialism In the fact it is rapidly being
put on a capitalistic basis, and is de-
generating into a mere plutocratic fad.
Our friends the Socialists-or at least
those of them who are really sincere
must find in the capitalization of Social
ism much reason for gloomy reflection.
In New York Robert Hunter has de-
voted his fortune to the new system
which is to change human nature and
rush the millennium. In plain English,
Robert Hunter has capitalized his sec
ton of the Socialist party. AS far as
the Hunter brigade of Socialists Is con-
cerned capitalism has furnished the
munitions of war with which Socialism
attacks capitalism. What success Hun
ter would have made as Socialist agi-
tator and practical reformer without
capital may be estimated by the amount
of success less fortunate Socialists have
had in reconciling their lives with their
professions. Most of them have to eat
the bread of capitalism: and Socialism
has not dulled the edge of their appe-
tite for the meat that perisheth. AS
rule, they are just as willing as any
ordinary, coarse grained, selfish pluto
crat or ninion of the plutocracy to
grab all that's coming to them, all
that's in sight and look for more. But
when Socialism is financed and is
put on a capitalistic basis, then 1t
becomes formidable, and yet 1t
declares that as a capitalized institu-
ton it ought not to exist, and is con-
trary to its own principles. and-dear,
dear. 1t is all very puzzling, to be sure.
The capitalistic endowment of Social
ism is more remarkable in England
than in the United States. The Eng
lish take very kindly to the cult-much
more kindly than their Celtic neigh
bors, the Scotch and the Irish. The
cause will now win more adherents
than ever in John Bulls overcrowded
metropolis and provinces, because the
countess of Warwick will hand over to
the champions of the rights of man
81, 500, 900, which she has won gambling
III SLOChos ~ IiiC ulllHSPlLC0
the sum of $1,500,000 looks like capital,
and appearances would indicate the
noble countess has capitalized the cause
of Socialism in England. But things
are not what they seem, and the only
way in which to contemplate the kalei-
doscopic chameleon called Socialism is
to hold the thought that two blacks
make white. Capitalism and exploita-
ton prove Socialism. See?

IN SAN DIEGO

n UR good friends in San Diego are
rejoicing over the success of the
" Lincoln Roosevelt league candi-
date for mayor and the defeat of the
organization or machine candidate.
The organization had the support of
the Royal Arch and Liberal Alliance.
but reform is in the air, and 1t is in
fictitious. There is no doubt the good
government victory in Los Angeles had
a great deal to do with the success of
the San Diego reformers.
Los Angeles has set every city in the
country an example which by many of
them will be followed. The influence Of
the recall campaign is far-spreading,
and is constantly spreading farther.
Los Angeles never wore prouder feather
in her cap than the consciousness of
sher national influence which has come
to her as one of the results of the cleo
ton of Mayor Alexander. We believe
the good work has only been begun.
1t is splendid to be able to realize
Los Angeles influence has been exerted
for good, and will help make the whole
country better There is nothing sue
ceeds like success, and the fact the re-
callers accomplished their purpose in
this municipality was of the greatest
benefit and advantage to friends and
advocates of good government every
where. Los Angeles as well as San
Diego is to be congratulated on the
success of the reformers in San Diego
and the defeat of that precious trio,
the machine, the Royal Arch and the
Liberal Alliance.

were not excessive, they were regarded
as affording sufficient protection 10 the
struggling Infant industries. Then came
the higher Civil War tariffs. After
that followed the reduction period. put
in 1884 the rates had not got down 70

At the same time the treasury was Pill"

wanted to cut the internal revenue

This led to the widespread assertion
that they were for free whisky and Tree

II was at this juncture that Morrison
came along with his horizontal" bill.
He Thought to command support for 1t

those which obtained in the Morrill,

than those of the Morrill, tarin, ana
that the infant industry ought not TO

years than 1t needed at the beginning
of that period. But he reckoned with

being a free trade measure. Under tnat
charge it was dog with a bad name

enough protection in 1884.
The ways and means committee had
been framed up along free trade lines

was that all duties should be reduced

margin the reformers set out to con-
slider the bill in dead earnest. The
best argument the free traders turned
up was the one tending to show that
the prevailing tariff rates were higher
than the whole cost of the labor enter

quoted government statistics to show
that the gross value of all the products
of all manufacturing industries
amounted to $5,369. 000 900, and that the
wages paid therefor amounted to WAL

the cost of the labor engaged In turn

When we 60 to Lancaster and 9TH

with an argument like this-We
know your Hour is all right and
would buy it willingly, but the fact
is we work to the interest OF Lam
caster and do not care to sell Hour
made elsewhere. This is the uni
versal rule there. We haye known
millers to force their flour in stores
for less than standard price, in or
der to get hold or start. That
flour was put on the shelf and
kept there for six months or more,
simply because the grocer refused
TO put it out. II money is needed
for anything for the benefit of Lo-
gan, the millers are never sighted,
and | have at all times tried to re-
spond. We notice large stores do
ing "a good business, and not SELL

months that was made in Logan,
