No Hope For Worker
There is now no hope for any
protection for the working class in
this country" he asserts. Protection
for the plutocrat the exploiter. and
big thief-is the watchword in Wash.
ington, ID. c., and in every legislature
and court Of record in the United
. States.
Now, l deny that dealing with a
blind and greedy plutocratic class as
we are dealing in this country. the
outcome can ever be peaceable or
that any reasonable change can ever
be brought about by the ballot in
the end.
II predict that large part of the
capitalist class will be wiped out for
much smaller things than the settling
of the social question. That before
any settlement is possible. most of
the plutocratic class, together with
the politicians, will have to disappear
as completely as the feuda! lords and
their retinue disappeared during the
French revolution.
This cannot be done by the ballot
or by only the ballot.
THE ballot may not count for much
in a pinch.
And in order to be prepared for
all emergencies, socialists and work.
ingmen should make it their duty to
have rifles and the necessary rounds
of ammunition at their homes, and be
prepared to back up their ballots with
their bullets If necessary"
Apparently the full force of this
long-pent-up venom was not exhausted
in this single Outpouring of Berger's

columns Of the Chicago Daily Social
list.
Not BY Ballot Alone
"Do not misunderstood me-" he
said. Il know right we'll that the so
cial question can no more be solved
by street riots, insurrections, and shot
guns than by bomb and dynamite.
yet by the ballot alone, 1t will also
scarcely ever be solved.
up to this time men have always
solved great questions by blood and
iron.''
What are we to think of this man,
Berger. who is now entrusted with
the duty Of helping to make the laws
Of this nation? Has he experienced
a change Of heart since the votes Of
his fellows sent him to sit in one OF
the seats Of the mighty? Was he a
revolutionist for day or two only,
or is his Wanted "constructionism"

dictionary tendency that is likely to
