New-York tribune., 1912-01-28

Il ad nauseam-and If the family IS part
of the present social organization-and So
cialism reiterates it-and II you destroy the
present economic basis of the social organ
ization-and socialism insists upon the
process-then you, Of course. destroy the
present social organization and all Its
works; ergo. you destroy the family. The
same series OF Missouri problngs will apply
10 the question OF soclalism's ultimate ef-
feet upon religion. Mr.. Mcmahon casually
and atrily intimates at the outset OF his ar
tcle that socialism is not Wnat some peo-
pie (sic) anciently imagined It TO be, name
". "a DEVILS compound Of irreligion, CHI
mera, anarchy, free love and so forth Mr..
Mcmahon vallantly takes time by the fore
lock (Tlme Is either n mere baby or very
old gentleman), although he is cautious not
TO take the bull BY the horns. He fore
stalls the accusation by putting the accuser
in the pilory beforehand. He contemptu-
ously kicks the silly wouldbe reviler down
stairs and slams the door in his impudent
face
Under this shameful imputation even the
boldest might hesitate to shake his fist Mt
the closed portcullis and call names. Don
/ Quxote might try It. and Sancho Panza-at
| a safe distance-applaud the knights valor.
But We. mere bourgeoisie-well, Wen call
/ the bluff How much the devil has had TO
do with the compound is beyond my power
/ OF calculation / am perfectly willing 10
/ let his satanic majesty out OF the game. IL
works too we'll 10 require his assistance
and he might be ashamed OF himself And
/ now for the ingredients:
| First. "irreligion." There can be no rea-
/ sonable cause OF complaint here. Religion
| is, according to socialism. bourgeoise In
/ stitution. resting and depending upon the
present economic basis, and therefore inev-
/ itably doomed TO extinction. II Is surely
! therefore not impertinent to call socialism
Irreligious, or anti-religious. II you prefer
/ the term.
"Chimera" We have only to turn to Mr..
| McMahon's two eloquent and concluding
paragraphs. No Utopian STEPPED in golden
slumber ever dreamed paradise so bloom
ing. an innocence so profound. Millennium
so rich, a humanity so transhSured, a uni
verse so harmonious.

/ is question of means to the end socialism Is
anarchy. /. o. il seeks TO destroy the pres

I goal attained, IT ceases to be anarchic and
| becomes pure despotism. Under existing
conditions. that IS. while capitalism is the
New-York tribune., 1912-01-28

with no less emphasis. I grant that this
IS the foundation of socialism, but 1 take
exception 10 the foundation-lt Is not true.
But before proceeding let Mr.. Mcmahon
put his own case:
According to this law. the fundamental
and dominant force in all epochs has been
the prevailing economic systems-the
method Of production and distribution Of
commodities Society has adjusted itself
primarily to the bread and butter ques-
ton. On this economic basis has been
built up a superstructure Of law, religion,
ethics, art. politics. all the SNOWY para
phernalia which was once naivcly i'm
agined as derived from abstract ideal
sources. Not from the clouds, but from
necessary economic environment have
these legal, ethical political and other
ideas chiefly come; or at least. they have
been most strongly shaped and modified
by the environment. individuals do not
always act according to their material
self-interest. Society, whole is
motived by its economic system. History
is full OF evidence to support this view"
History Is full of evidence TO the con-
trary. II is only by standing history on
its head as Feuerbach did Hegels dia-
y lectlC, tHdl any HlSlOIlCdl tNihtHNt NdU NC
tortured into the service OF the MARKHAM
materialistc Interpretation. OF course, II
a man insists on standing on his head con-
stantly (provided he can perform that
feaD he will see the universe upside down.
and will naturally interpret It as he sees
t. But the normal position Of man Is to
stand on his feet with his head up. II Is
much easier more becoming and more
conducive to sanity. AS Mr.. Mcmahon
cites no instances from the remarkable
fulness Of history, see no reason to linger
over his statement. | may, however, re-
mark in passing that the origin, growth
: and development Of Christianity is not
/ only a remarkable instance 10 the contrary
/ of his statement, but that the history Of
/ Christianity brings out in characters OF
| fire the complete domination and victory
! OF an ideoiogy in shaping and determin-
/ ing the social organization Of the only
progressive races in modern history.
/ II is not only TO point out the badness
/ OF Mr. McMahon's statement in this re-
! gard that | have quoted him so extensive
| ly. but chiefly to direct attention TO i'm
