Dear Sir-Permit me to thank you
for the splendid lecture you gave us
last Sunday, and to ask if you could
give us another lecture along astro-
nomical lines two weeks from Sunday.
Our patrons were more than delighted
with your lecture, Are the Planets
Inhabited" one of them declaring that
your revolving representation of our
solar system was worth $500 to see
by itself.
Hoping to hear from you at your
earliest convenience, remain,
Gratefully yours,

Manager Rice Institute, Oakland, Cal.

ity to patriotism. And Of that which
today takes unto itself the name OF
patriotism, the Socialist is indeed the
enemy of enemies. Upon the patrio
tism fostered by international bankers
and the manufacturers of armor plate;
upon the patriotism perpetrated by
the british and brainless ambitions of
a parasitic military-that pampered
and bedizened pauper of the body
polite; upon the patriotism preached
by prostitute press and an unclean
clergy; UPON THE PATRIOTISM
NOW STIRRING MANKIND TO A
POSSIBLE FRENZY OF SELF-EX-
TERMINATION; UPON THE POR-
TENTOUS HYPOCRISY T H A T
PASSES FOR PATRIOTISM TODAY,
THE SOCIALIST INDEED LOOKS
WITH A LOATHING AND HORROR
THAT CANNOT BE PUT IN WORDS.
And yet, among all the parties and
movements of the hour, it is Socialism
alone that respects the individuality
and integrity of the nation; that rever-
ences the principle of nationality, and
proposes to unite each divided people
in life of its own. Socialism comes
as the savior of the nations which the
capitalist political state destroys. So
caIsm will release all nationalities,
each unto the expression of itself, and
lead all into a brotherhood of the
world.

The following lines from a poem
written by an elegant coward, are
often used in the primary grades OF
the public schools:
Form! Form! Riflemen, form!
Ready! be ready to meet the storm!
Riflemen! Riflemen! Riflemen, form!
A school teacher can make fool
and murderer of boy of or 10
years with such lines. Remember that
the poets and teachers who furnish
the war song chloroform for school
children usually "side-step" when the
storm breaks--no rifle business for
them-they let others meet the
storm" which their poetry and teach
ing helped stir up. The war-song
poet and the war-song teacher, if you
please, are too Cultivated and respect
able" to be periodically butchered.

THE STATE THE NATION S
ENEMY

The state was always the nations
enemy. Turning the pages of history,
we see that the Roman state, as far
back as the time of the conquest OF
the Etruscan Confederation, as late as
the beginning of the reign of the pres
ent emperor, was the destroyer of the
Italian nation. Indeed, the Roman
state was never other than the de-
vourer of the nations Of the earth,
creating nothing, living by the plum
dering of the peoples. The splendor
of Rome was the splendor of theft and
imitation; its power lay in the organi-
cation of a universal brigandage; its
pomp was the apotheosis of vulgar
ity. And the restoration of the Italian
nation was effected by revolutionary
uprisings against the divers political
institutions and divisions that descend
ed from the Roman state. Today, it
is the British state that is destroying
the British nation, and Ireland and

1t is the American state that is de-
basing the American nation; that has
produced as hypocritical and brazen
generation as ever filched from the
past, or mouthed unto men its dead
and sodden platitudes. And the state,
constituted as it now is In the inter
ests of the master-class, can never be
other than the organized suppression
and perversion of the people, 1t
stands for the proclamation and extinc-
ton of NATURALIZATION the violence
and disorder which Socialism comes
to bring to an end, establishing order
and society in it's place.

SOME YEARS AGO AND NOW
BY JAMES H. MAURER

by JAMJJ nhOTER
Socialist Member Pennsylvania Legis
lature.
Some years ago when the Socialists
contended that there were classes in
the United States, a wall of protest
and denial was heard from every city
village and hamlet in the country. The
capitalists and their defenders said:
mo, in this grand country all citizens
stand equal before the law" and that
every man had chance to be either
millionaire, governor or president.
And they proudly pointed out to us
how the tow path boy and the rail
splitter became president how news
boys became millionaires, etc.
This fact should convince us work
ers that if any of us happened not to
be millionaires or presidents, it was
because we were too shiftless, lazy
or stupid But as the class struggle
continued, and day after day became
acute, the lie of "no classes" was
flung to the winds, and war of the
classes declared.
The capitalist class, owning the
means by which we live, and in con-
troll of the government, is the ruling
class. On the other hand, We of the
working class, even though in the
great majority and producers of all
wealth, are, and have been through
all ages the subject class.

The Socialist Party was organized
to capture this governmental tool for
the working class, not for the purpose
of using it as the capitalists do, but
to abolish their system-capitalism
which is based upon labor exploita-
ton, and in it's place establish the

Labor organizations are new, and
have since their inception, struggled
for a higher standard of living, while
organized labor fought glorious bat
ties for the uplift of their class, and
incidentally the human race. On the
industrial field, it unfortunately ig-
nored the political, and what a fright
full price we paid and are still paying,
for this Indifference or neglect of the
most important weapon.
In our legislative halls, our masters
or their hirelings, make the laws, to
be sure THEIR laws, not OURS.
On the bench sit their judges to in
terpret THEIR laws, not OURS.
They have us build jails to impri-
son OUR PEOPLE, not THEIR PEG
PIE.
To continue their reign, they or
ganize military companies, recruited
from the ranks of our class. They
created the State Cossacks to crack
OUR HEADS, not THEIRS.
With these government weapons in
their possession, they imprison our
Lawsons, Quinlans, and hundreds of
others. With these weapons they out
lawed the boycott and legalized the
black list. 1t is with these govern
ment weapons that they break our
strikes, starve, crush and murder our
people when we revolt against our
oppressors. With their judicial tools
they plundered the treasures of labor
uuionc and in iunctionpd the strikers

MEDlLL MCCORMICK EXPLAINS.

When Medill Mccormick, formally
announcing, as it was thought his
abandonment of the Progressive par
ty. declared IL was a pleasure to get
back to the party of my fathers, ="
by which he meant the G. O. F., 1t
was regarded by the newspapers Of
the country as important news, and
Mccormick had been the national
committeeman of the new party for
Illinois and he had whooped things
up as few others for Colonel RoOse-
Welt in 1912. His progressiyeness, n
fact, had been of the type to lead
even mis- intimate friends to believe
that it was a disease rather than a
violent form Of partssnship.
The nctoriety which has come TO
this erstwhile Bull Moose leader ap-
parently is not enjoyable He is out
IN statement, in which he explains
that, in accepting the invitation to a..
tend the caucus of Republican leg
islators in Illinois, although elected
to the General Assembly on the Pro.
gressive ticket, he did SO to break a
deadlock and without obligation for
future affiliation with the Repubd
cans; and that his reference to the
pleasure of once more associating
with old friends belonging TO the
party OF my fathers" was purely per
sonal.
Although he attempts no further
explanation as to what prompted hin
to resign from the Progressive ma
tional committee, Mr.. Mccormick still
essays to tell what the party, or wha
is left of II, may do in 1916, which il
effect is that the one of the twI
older parties which adopts the mos
acceptable program is likely to 81
cure the support of the majority o
the men who made up the Progress
i've party in 1912. This might be Goa
strued as an admission of disintegra
tion. The country will wonder /

A NEW CURE.

A bedpost has not generally been
regarded so much as an eye-opener
as an eye-shutter, but if a story that
comes from Boston is true-and what
story from Boston was ever untruur
our oculists should go to school 10
the landmarks of Morpheus. Mr.
Frank II. Hayes of Baltimore, who
has been stone blind for nine years,
so the tale runs, struck his head vio-
lently against the bedpost Tuesday
morning on arising, and was astound-
ed few minutes afterward to find
that his sight had been entirely re-
stored. We do not know whether
the virtue of this cure lay in the bed
post or in the effect that il was a
Boston bedpost, but if it was really
effected in this way there would seem
to be a good deal in such inanlmate
objects not heretofore dreamed of in
the philosophy OF optics. One Of the
morals of this modern miracle would
seem to be that knocking is some
times a very efficacious process, and
that the only way to make some folks
see things is by knocking them into
their heads.
