don't want to use scurrilous language
against any individual to bolster NJ
socialism Socialism is too clean {
thing to smear it with unclean ant
naughty language. Nearly erybody
knows that there are lots of folks WHIT
live in glass houses and that as gen
eral rule the leaders of the republican
party are as crooked as a rail fence
and if the republican party has evel
been of any benefit to the laborinl
people, no one has found it out 1t il
party of plunder and enriched itsel
at tho expense of the South without {
doubt and held the reins of the govern
ment in its hands on sectional lines
and nothing else. Trus it preached
the freedom of the negro and tht
northern woman rejoiced over tht
thought that the southern white wo
man would have to go to the wash

insults hurled at the southern people
by the aboliionist or republican party

The ne gro as whole is in worse con

freed the negro and now both the ne
gro and the masses of whites arr
slaves to the unwise policy of republi
canism, and just how any working
man can vote a republican ticket is a
puzzle. Social democracy means the
emancipation of the wage slaves and
the restoration of their divine birth.

fix such governments so the laborer
can be robbed of his birthright for less
than mess of pattage and defrauded
of his wages as st, James says.
Socialism is in the world to stay un-
and established. Then the wages of
working men will not be taken from
them as now, and what man pro-
duces will be his, and he won't have
to pay tribute to any living man for
the privilege of living on the earth.
He will have his allotment laid off to
him as under Moses, and the govern
ment will hold it in trust for him, as
God designed and intended.
Well, you say, why cont the
church lead the way Simply be-
cause Islael was not delivered from
bondage by the church, and the wage
slaves will not be emancipated until a
government is formed to protect them,
which is the real church that is going
to be set up that will break in pieces
all other kingdoms. Moses, Christ
and Carl Marx. three Jews, have been
the three greatest agitators in behalf
of humanity that ever lived, and
their doctrines the least understood,
but the common people begin to wake
up slowly, but surely, and are de-
manding relief. Socialism and re-
publicanism are wide apart, SO wide
no real socialist could vote for re-
publican, no difference how clever and
nice he might be, land the land shall
not be sold for it is mine" saith the
Lord. We Socialists believe this law
has never been changed and we be-

J. A. Goforth has two very sick

field A great many seem to have
their minds made up as to how they
are going to vote.
