any home worthy of the name after the
present supply wore out. No man is going
to toll and mol improving land and houses,
unless you guarantee to him the benefit of his
own labor. And when you have given him
that guaranty, he will have something which
IS equivalent to fee-slmple title to that land.
The Socialists may squirm and squeal, but
they can't get away from the facts
The strength of "Orthodox Socialism, con-
slsts Of two things Discontent with present
conditions, and Glass hatred.
The Discomfort is warranted, but the
remedy offered would substitute one slavery
Tor another. Under Socialism, Society would
elect labor bosses, and these labor bosses
would dictate to you how you should work,
when you should work and where you should
work.
Could power more dangerous be given to
mortal man? The angels of Heaven are not
wise enough and good enough to be trusted
with such tremendous despotism over the
destlnies Of a civilized people. And when we
stop to think of what frightful abuses would
be sure to result it is enough to make even
the Socialists tremble
Does Society know how to pick out it's best
men to control public affairs? Has it ever
known how to do that thing? Are not the
woes Of the human race traceable to this very
cause.-the lack of the wisdom to choose the
best men for the exercise of authority? Has
not that very problem baffled the statesmen
throughout the ages? How do we know that
Socialism will do any better in that respect
than other systems have done?
A wise, benevolent despotism might be the
best Of all government, but where was there
ever the despotlsm that was sure to have it's
wise, benevolent despot?
jnGQr GOOD and IUicn 1zirC q ,,7Opo ,ol,v,
IS not bad government who could in
sure the State against the wicked, tyrannical
king?
An arlstocracy composed of the talentUand
the culture and the virtue of the state, might
give the common people an ideal administra-
tlon,-but what aristocracy was ever based
upon talent and culture and virtue?
A Democracy, such as our fathers "on-
ceived, would most assuredly be the best os-
slble governmental we had our father ner2
to run it.
Some years ago there was mild wave of
ephemeral books carrying the title, eff Christ
Came" etc.
W. T. Stead's coniectures were based upon
Christ's coming to Chicago: NJ. w. Towards
on His Coming to Congress- But nobody
wrote upon the more appropriate subject ''Tf
Andrew Jackson Came to the White House"
The government which Jackson laid down
Is no more like the government which proudly
halls Sherman as Vice President, than the
automobile is like the push-cart. Yet the
original idea of the cart evolved the auto
mobile and the consolidated plutocracy which
rules and exploits this Union of States repre-
sents morbid growth of original defects in
our system.
How do the Socialists know that they will
be able to hold bad men down? VIII they
change human minds and hearts? Will they
be able to make the imperfect reach perfec-

his CASTLE" Do we not recall the inspired
burst OF oratory in which the elder William
Pitt referred to this?
"The poorest man may, in his cottage, bid
defiance to all the forces of the Crown. 1t
may be frail-its roof may shake, the wind
may blow through it, the storm may enter,
but the King of England cannot enter-aH
his forces dare not cross the treshold of his
ruined tenement"
Could the vassal ever have wrung such a
concession from his lord and his king, if there
had not been some God planted unconquer-
able longing for the individual home?
Turn from the law book to the song book,
and see how the evidence corresponds {'Home,
Sweet Home has absolutely no merit as
poetry and not much as music, but it will
start culver of emotion in the hearts of
Engllsh-speal1ng people from one end of the
world to the other 1t has probably softened
more hardened wanderers, drawn more tears
from eyes not given to the melting mood,
than any set of verses ever written. Why?
Because they touch the chord that God Al
mighty strung in the souls of His children
From pole to pole, from savage squalor to
Babylonlan splendor, from Arab tent to
Windsor Castle, from negro cabin to Fifth
Avenue palace-touch the chord and it has
always rung as true as it did in the birth
back through tear-dimmed eyes at the closed
gates of Eden
From then till now, wherever a home has
been lost, the grief has been the same-in each
instance it was a case of Paradise Lost
Now, the Socialist not only recognizes this
love of the individual home as a lion in his
path, but he knows that Patriotism is also
against him. Hence, his fierce attempts
to undermine and destroy the sentiment
which we call Patriotism. Love Of country
has its root In love of home; and no man
loves his home very warmly if it is nothing
but rented house, or room in hotel. The
Socialist seeks to reduce the home feeling to
the boarding house leevl The Socialist denies
you the right to the individual ownership of
your home Without this individual owner
ship it is not your home at all. If Mr.. Every
body IS to hold title to your house while you
hold title to Mr.. Everybody's house, neither
you nor he owns home in the true sense of
the word.
You want your own home, and you are
willing for Mr. Everybody to own his. You
don't want to boss him, and you don't want
him to boss you, in the matter of the home.
You want the individual and separate owner
ship of your home; you want to feel secure in
its improvement; you want to feel that it is
yours to keep as long as you please; to sell
when you get ready; to bequeath it to your
wife, or son, or daughter so that these whom
you love best may enjoy what you and they
have worked to make.
The Jefersonian Democrat says, "Destroy
Special Privilege; make the laws conform to
the rule of Equal Rights to all, and you will
put it in the power Of every industrious man
to own his home"
The Socialist says, "Let Society own the
homes, and let Society move the man about,
