Not to BE Taken Seriously.

Toledo Blade: There are undoubt-
edly many socialists who still read
their Karl Marx faithfully and look
upon the communistic rules the mas
ter socialist laid down as good po-
litical philosophy. But socialism has
all but passed out of its philosophi-
cal stage. The socialists have winged
their way close to the flame of office
holding. They are no longer the
bearers of banners. but are the
drum-beaters for votes. Their or
ators no longer say, I'VE build for
the future" but enlarge the party"
Instead of boasting that they alone
have a definite constructive policy
as they did few years since, the So
cialists direct their representative on
the public payroll to oppose every
thing the other fellows are for
At this stage OF the intellectual
bankruptcy" of socialism, one Ed
ward Silvin of California has gath
cred together the views of leading
men and women" who are opposed
to the socialistic doctrines The PAM
phlet serves about the same useful
end as beating a grave. 1t is like
going through the process of wreck
ing building after the tenants have
already blown it up with dynamite OF
their own manufacture.
There was a time when socialism
might have been taken seriously.
But to do so now is to fritter away
ones stock Of worries. 1t is wiser
and much more cheering to sit by
and watch the socialists squabble
among themselves, smash down the
heads of those among them that rise
above the multitude and invent new
antics for the entcrteinment of the
general public.

Signs of Progress,

Many farmers and others can re-
call the fact that when they were
boys on the farm. the farmer who
had two spring seats to put on his
wagon for gala days was considered
a fortunate and well to do farmer.
Most farmers then had only one
spring seat and the children sat be-
hind on mere boards laid across the
wagon beds. Then came the farm
er who had the spring wagon, a
smaller wagon with springs under
it. Then the top carriage and so
on. Now it is the automobile that
runs not only on springs but on
cushioned tires and one automobile
costs about as much as thirty spring
wagons used to cost. In all of this
we may catch the drift of progress
and also an explanation of the high
cost of living But we have to
have such things now. Bucklin
