SINCLAIR'S JUNGLE" TO BE
SHOWN AT THE GRAND
Greatest of Moving Pictures

Comrade Upton Sinclair's great
story, "The Jungle" has been made
into moving picture drama, and, &C
cording to Eastern papers, is the most
powerful and thrilling drama ever put
into film. In fact, the story of Chi
cago's Packingtown ("The Jungle')
is portrayed in such wildly realistic
manner, showing the terrible suffer
ings Of the exploited workers, that
many of the capitalist rulers have for
hidden it's production in their bafli-
wick. 1t shows up the working of the
capitalist system little too graphi-
cally to suit the old-line politicians.
Manager Lynn, of the Grand theatre,
is to be congratulated for his enter
prise in securing this wonderful pic
ture drama, and it's now up to the
Socialists of Everett to help advertise
it, and to induce non-Socialists to go
and see it. THE Jungle" will open the
eyes of many an 'unbeliever"
1t may be seen at the Grand August
10 and II.

SOCIALISM AND RELIGION

(From Allan L. Benson's Great Book,
'The Truth About Socialism"
The truth is that there is no truth
in the charge that Socialism is against
religion.
Socialism is purely an economic
matter 1t has no more to do with re-
ligion than it has to do with astron-
omy 1t is no more against religion
than it is against astronomy
Men of all religious denominations
are Socialists and men of no religi-
Gus denominations are Socialists.
Nor is there any reason why this
should not be so. The very pith and
marrow of Socialism is the contention
that the people, through the govern
ment, should own and operate, for
their exclusive benefit, the great ma
chinery of production and distribution
that is now owned and operated by
the trusts. Either this contention is
sound or it is not. Whether it is
sound or not, a mans religious be
liefs cannot possibly have anything tt
do with what he thinks of it.

THE BATTLE rs ON!
Both Socialist Candidates on the
Ticket.

" Workers Of the world unite ~
WORKERS OF EVERETT

There are now but two working
class candidates in the political
arena. They are opposed by the
tools of the bosses-by the agents
OF the corporation interests.
You are not so simple minded,
dear reader, as to suppose that the
Rockefeller interests in Everett
and they control everything worth
the trouble-have not their hum
BILE servants to represent them on
the ballot. You know they have.
You know that the public utili-
ties and banking interests of Ev-
Ierett are determined to control the
city hall of this city, if they pos
sibly can.
But can they?
Not if you're wide awake,
brother wage-slave. Not if the
working class of Everett have any
man s or woman s marrow in their
vertebral columns. Not if the
wealth-producers think themselves
men enough and women enough to
control their own political destiny.
Bostrom and Salter are the
chosen candidates Of the workers
of Everett for commissioner of fl
nance and public works.
They are opposed by all the in
terests that prey upon the work
ing-class, both in the shop and mill
and on their little homes, as small
taxpayers. The Everett Improve
ment Co." must improve" their
own holdings at the expense of
the working-class home-owners.
The thrifty contractors must
have a chance to look out for
Number One?" Not9
And they MUST have agents
through which to edo business.
They can't edo any business
through the Socialists.
Is there any one SO stupid as not
to see this?

wholly financed by the workers
themselves, wholly controlled by
the workers themselves.

j. STITT WILSON TELLS HIS
BROTHER PREACHERS THAT
SOCIALISM Is CHRISTIAN
ITY IN OVERALLS. "

In an eloquent address before the
Chicago Methodist Preachers associa-
ton, Comrade ]. Stitt Wilson called
upon the ministers present to rally to
the support of Socialism, because, he
declared, Socialism is the next sub
lime and awe-inspiring step of the
Kingdom of God ON this earth. 1t is
to sweep all nations, touching all races,
including all religions, reaching up to
thrones, and down to the lowest mud
stills of humanity that past injustice
has degraded and wounded. 1t is to
release new art, a new literature, a
new manhood and womanhood. 1t is
today the leaven that is raising the
whole lump. Socialism is the worlds
Messiah. The struggle, progress and
inevitable triumph of Socialism, bring
ing economic freedom, social justice,
and release of mind and soul to our
common humanity, will constitute a
veritable second coming of Christ"
Comrade Wilson pointed out that the
very essence of Christianity, leaving
aside doctrines and dogmas, forms and
ceremonies, is compassionate concern
for the development and welfare, the
freedom and perfection of human
lives.
THE Church of Christ cannot dare
to make human souls so infinitely val
liable on Sunday in the church and at
the altar, that it beggars the wealth
of heaven to redeem them, and then
make them so cheap and worthless on
Monday on the highways and at the
factory gates, as to leave them the
pawns of the capitalist class in their
mad profit-hunger.
Socialism Is Christianity in OveralIs
"Just as you have translated your
Greek New Testament into plain Eng
fish words, can we translate this ten
der love for these infinitely sacred
lives into plain matter-of-fact week
day social program for using land, and
running machinery, and utilizing labor
and lending credit? Have you any

Salter and Bostrom Greeted With
Prolonged Cheers.

The largest and most enthusiastic
audience gathered during the present
campaign greeted the noted working
class orator, Mrs. Kate Sadler, of Sc
attic, when she stepped upon the plat
form last Sunday evening. at Socialist
headquarters, 1912 California street
to address the voters of Everett
Mrs. Sadler did not lay much stress
on what two Socialist commissioners
could do for Everett, but rather en-
phasized the. fact that the capture of
the two offices now being contested
for in this city would be most signi-
ficant as evidence of the awakening
of the workers to a realization of their
own Importance and power as the one
useful and necessary class in present
day society.
"The working-class must have jobs.
and the capitalist system cannot guar
antee to its victims even an ill-paid
Job at the most disagreeable work"
said the speaker "In order that you
may own your job" comrade Sadler
declared, you must own the land and
machinery of the nation, so that you
may freely apply your labor power to
these means of production and create
the things that you need, and without
tribute to any parasitic capitalist"
Mrs. Sadler reminded her hearers
that the contest for the two commits
sionerships in Everett was but a part
of the worldwide contest of the work
ing-class to capture the political state
of each state and nation so that its
present despotic, coercive character
may be changed into an industrial
state, having for its proper function
the administration of things, rather
than the rulership and exploitation of
men,
Mrs. Sadler's speech was informing,
impressive, stimulating, and hearten-
ing and will result in permanent good
to the Socialist movement. We hope
to have her with us again in the near
future

With Cheers
Comrades Bostrom and Salter were
each received with prolonged cheers
when called to the platform to offer
short addresses preceding the speaker
of the evening. Neither of the candi-
dates made any plea for votes, as
such Both emphasized the fact that
the political contest in Everett was
but one phase of the worldwide class
struggle between those who work and
own not and those who own and work
not at any useful labor.
