PLEA TOR NEWER PATRIOT m

Charlotte Perkins Gilman, noted
Socialist lecturer, editor, poetess,
novelist and philosopher, was the
speaker chosen for the first lecture
given in this state under the educa-
tional organization presided over
locally by the County Supt. of schools,
Mrs. Lizzie Jones' The lower floor of
the Everett Theatre was filled with
attentive listeners as Mrs. Gilman
made her strong, logical plea for an
enlargement of the popular conception
of patriotism, urging also the neces
sity for some method for the enforce
ment or arbitration treaties. The fact
that wars are an inevitable expression
of the capitalist system of production
for profits, and can never be eliminat-
ed until the cause is removed-pro-
duction for profits, instead of for use,
was carefully side-stepped by Com
rade Gilman, for the occasion; which
was a disappointing feature of an
otherwise very well organized lecture
Commonplace in content, so far as
Socialists are concerned, the lecture
seemed to be full of new and radical
departures to the bourgeois part of the
audience. Mrs. Gilman is never dull,
even when doing a bourgeois stunt.
The amusing part Of the
whole affair was to see Mrs. Lizzie
Jones chairman of a meeting call
ed to hear Socialist speaker of inter
national fame while apparently bliss
fully ignorant of the fact
But where could one look to secure
a speaker worth while without falling
afoul OF a Socialist? Nearly every ar
fist, poet, writer, orator and scientist
Of the day is either avowedly, or tao
lily, a Socialist. So what could the
poor woman do?

them to toll for their masters. The
workers received no more than was
necessary to keep them in condition
to perform labor That custom in n
somewhat modified and less brutal
form is still in force and effect. Cap
italism, or the present system of in
dustrialism is still conducted on that
plan except the big chieftains who
become the possessors of the earnings
of the workers, secure it by crafty
methods rather than by use OF the
war club or stone Ratchet.
The total wealth of the people of
the United States is estimated at one
hundred and forty billions of dollars.
The alarming fact is that the toiling
masses who created that wealth are
owners of but ten per cent of that col
ossal sum, while few millionaires
own ninety per cent of it, for which
they returned no equivalent In value.
Did they become possessors of the
wealth by useful labor, mental or
manual? Oh, no. They got it through
profits and Understanding legal
methods for getting something for
nothing, and they made both the law
and the methods.
