BY Karl Kautsky

The elevation of the working class
is a necessary and inevitable process.
But it is neither peaceful nor regular.
The tendency of the capitalist system
is to degrade the proletariat ever
more and more. The moral regenera-
ton of the working class is possible
only in opposition to this tendency
and its representatives, the capital
lists. 1t cannot come about except
through the new tendency developed
in the working class by the modern
conditions of labor. But the two
tendencies, the one upward and the
other downward, vary constantly IN
different places and at different per-
iods. They depend on the condition
of the market, the organization of in
dustry, the development of machinery,
the insight of the capitalist and work

Workers Awakening
BY Geo. r. Kirkpatrick

| L
A sword is a three-foot razor with
which the working class obligingly
and stupidity cuts its own throat in
war
War is a fools festival in which the
working class crucifies itself in the
service of capitalism in the name of
patriotism.
Patriotism is perfect and glorious
in proportion as the starved slave is
willing to fight for fat master.
Patriotism (of this sort) is brain
less, binding fever that employers
and bankers, bishops and politicians
eloquently recommend for others, but
cunningly never catch themselves-at
present under capitalism.
Capitalism, strutting and stagger.
ing under the insane burdens or mill
tarism, capitalism, the present in
dustrial despotism, is motived by rob-
berry, breads discussion, seduces cul-
ture, flatters the foolish, needs the
sword, glorifies force, sneers at tears,
pretends peace, fattens on war and
teaches patriotism TO slaves.
For half a hundred centuries this
hate-laden madness called patriotism
has paralyzed and blinded each new
generation of the working class, rem
dering them the easy, self-slaughter-
| ing dupes of a crafty ruling class.
Thus have the workers been duped
and stung till now.
Till low.
I Light breaks-now. This is the
sun-flooded morning of a new era
for the working class.
Slaves see-now. And, therefore,
this hooking farce, this hideous trag-
edy, called war, grows clear in the
brain Of the working class.
The slave is studying capitalism,
and therefore he sees the meaning of
capitalist patriotism. and as the slave
understands capitalism and it's neces-
sary patriotism, he understands war.
And as the wage-slave understands
war he understands that
Capitalists WANT wars,
Politicians DECLARE wars, and
Workingmen FIGHT the wars.
In all parts of the world the work
ing class are accepting this new def
milton Of war:
WAR IS WHOLESALE, SCIEN.
TIFIC SUICIDE FOR THE WORK
ING CLASS IN DEFENSE OF THE
ECONOMIC INTERESTS OF THE
RULING CLASS.

The L. abor Of
Children

Dedicated To All Ladies and Gentle
men.
BY F. F. Rockwell
You whose linen IS snow-white,
Whose beds are soft and clean,
Do you never hear, in the silent night,
In the purple dusk, in the dawn's faint
light,
The whirr of spindles, dimly seen,
And tie pacing children in between?
To and fro, to and fro,
Where the threads in the loom are
forever breaking!
White Death stalks them, to and fro,
Where eyes are lead and fingers
aching.
You, whose fires burn warm and
bright,
Who find life fresh and fair,
Do the cleaning Goals of the anthra-
cite
Meier linn you pictures aglow, that
smite
Your eyes that see; are you not aware
Of the mine-boys toiling in noisome
air?
Dust above, damp below,
But Profits must grow, though by
children weeping.
Black Death stalks them, to and fro,
Prematurely his harvest reaping.
Pause, with glass half raised, though
the wine look fair
The color of blood-stay the lips that
laugh.
Listen-a moan is in the air,
And cen in the curve of the crystal
there
The furnace beams-'tis an epitaph,
And there be tears in the wine you
quaff.
Crimson as hell the fires glow,
But pallid the figures there recoil-
ing;
Red Death stalks Them, to and fro,
Back in the shadows beyond their
tolling,
You who live upon dividends, interest,
rent,
Think of those who are broken and
! dumb,
In the Untitled mills their lives are
spent
In the midnight mines they are
warped and bent;
d-slowly-where gearings
hum,
That you in comfort may go and come
But though you know you leave it so;
Your hands are white and our chill
drens bleeding.
Lean Death stalks them, to and fro,
And weary and vain is our interced
ing.
