must b 9 for an on ortunity before
they can use tf5sa things to produce
the means of life.
The legal n 10 not agree that
the workers may use either the natu-
raj or the tool of industry,
except they retain the title TO same,
and control, and by so dong reserve
to themselves the right of mastery
over the many ana so the many must
live as the servants Of the few or not
at all.
THE possession of the means of life
gives to the few the control of the
government, the press, the pulpit and
the schools, and enables them to re-
duce the working men to a state of in
telleCtual, physical and social inferior
ity, political subservience and virtual
slavery, National Platform of So
cialist Party.
The legal owners appropriate the
whole product to themselves, giving
back to the workers in the form of
wages what they consent for them No
have, which usually is just enough to
barely live, and do not guarantee this
all the time. They res v the right
to employ whom they will for such
time as they may name, requiring
such speed in the work as they please
to demand. and to pay such wages as
they (the legal owners) may deter
mine.
Then, under the present system of
government insist t'at as the natur-
al gifts ere legally seized by the few,
and this few refuses to allow any
worker the privilege to work, that
worker is denied the right to live.
Such a government is not only funda-
mentally wrong, but hellishly wicked,
and will force its working citizens
when thus denied, TO antingly beg,
steal or starve.

SILL A SOCIALIST.

Editor News:
The wealth producer is entitled to
the products of his toll. There is no
theory about this. 1t is a logical
truth. All the lies that were ever
Matched in hell cannot overturn it.
/ did not notice Bill Whites, or
ssRepresentative's'' letter in time to
answer it last week. As for the liter
ature he said | was distributing dur
ing work hours, that statement is
false. All literature | sold was after
work hours, and it was frst-class so
cialist literature If Mr.. White has
any that teaches free love it is not So
~cialist literature, for socialists DO not
teach any such thing, and Bill White
knows it. Socialism is an economic
science, and its rapid growth and ultl-
mate success is founded upon a world
wide necessity. 1t has come to stay
and all the forces of hell cannot stop
it. The pent up wrongs that have
been accommodating for 5000 years
have formed a weight that will crush
capitalism.
legislatures may make laws, courts
may issue DEGREES, armies may be hlr-
ed TO shoot down men and women of
their own blood, but the movement to
abolish industrial slavery shall go on.
Truth crushed to earth shall rise
again.
The eternal years of God are hers"
God is stronger than Satan. and this
capitalistic system of robbery must be
put down.
