@. Being a subscriber Of your
esteemed paper would like a little
advice:
A. gave mortgage to B. for stat
ed period of time. Before mortgage
came due, 5.'s agent told A. that mort
gage could run just so interest was
promptly paid, so after running year
past due A. has found IL impossible
to keep up taxes and street grade as
sessments. What Is AS duty and
what will be the results7 Taxes and
assessments are behind for the last
year only. A READER.
A. IL b. insists upon something be-
ing done about the mortgage, then IL
is AS duty to pay off the mortgage
or have it extended for definite
length of time. If b. will not extend
the time. then you will have to get a
loan from some one else to pay off
the mortgage with interest and taxes
and assessments. If neither of these
things are done, then b. will have the
right to foreclose, and sell the prop
erty. After sale, you would have one
year in which to redeem.

WANT AND AFFECTION
THE LATTER DRIVEN AWAY
WHEN FORMER PREVAILS
By ENRICO FERRI

Want is the strongest poison for
the human body and soul 1t is the
fountainhead of all human and anti.
social feeling. Where want spreads
out its wings there the sentiments of
love, of affection, of brotherhood. are
impossible. When work is assured,
when living is certain, though poor
then want, cruel want, is in the dis
lance, and every good sentiment can
terminate and develop in the human
heart.
The family then lives in favorable
environment, the parents agree, the
children are affectionate And when
the laborer, a bronzed statue of hui
manity, returns from his smoky shop
and meets his white-haired mother.
the embodiment of half a century of
immaculate virtue and heroic sacri-
fices, then he can, tired but assured
of his daily bread, give room to feel
ings of affection, and he will cordially
invite his mother to share his frugal
meal.
But let the same man, in the same
environment be haunted by the
spectre of want and lack of employ
ment, and you will see the moral at
mosphere in his family changing as
from day to night. There is no work.
and the laborer comes home without
any wages. The wife, who does not
know how to feed the children, re-
proaches her husband with the suffer
ing of his family The man, having
been turned away from the doors of
ten offices, feels his dignity as an
honest laborer assailed in the very
bosom of his own family, because he
vainly asked society for honest en-
ployment. And the bonds of affec-
ton and union are loosened in that
family. There are too many children
and when the poor old mother ap-
proaches her son she reads in his dark
agitated mien the lack of tenderness
and feels in her mother heart that her
boy, poisoned by the specter of want
is perhaps casting evil looks at her
harboring the unfilial thought:
Better an open grave in the ceme-
terry than one mouth more to feed at
home"

AFTERMATH OF EDMONDS'
SCHOOL ELECTION

Edmonds, Wash, March 20, 1915.
The compromise" that was effect
ed, as reported by the local capitalist
sheet must have been pretty Shiny
affair when they try to drag the So
cialists down to their own low level
by intimating that there were any
Socialists on the election board at the
school election.
There also seems to be considerable
controversy as to the legality of the
election; but we will leave that to
the public and just state the facts as
they happened: The electors present
ignored the hand picked board and
elected V. NJ. Sill, Oscar Diner, and
George Bartlett on the board, with
one dissenting vote, that was cast by
Beeson, who was in favor of the hand
picking.
In the meantime a constable arrived
and he was asked if he would uphold
the legal board and see that they got
their seats, and he said mo"
AS the crowd gathered the question
was asked Mr.. Beeson, "Why the le-
gal board could not take their seats"
and he replied that they were all So
cialists. After considerable parley he
suggested that each party present
pick man and they be declared elect
ed thus ignoring the legal board. Mr..
Lang and Mr.. Arp agreed to do this,
and Arp picked McElroy and Some
picked ]. g. Clark and someone sug-
gested V. M. Sill, but before Sill could
decline it was steam rolled through.
V. NJ. Sill, who was a Socialist, said
he could not conscentiously serve be-
cause he considered any form other
than that designated by the school law
illegal. Then Mr., Beeson induced Mr..
McAllister to serve on the election
board. Mr. McAllister was not voted
on by the people present, but appoint
ed or chosen by Mr.. Beeson because
he thought him to be Socialist
Moral If you wish to be law abid-
ing: Study law. If you want to know
what constitutes a Socialist study So
cialism.

DARWIN'S CONTRIBUTION

In supplying us with proofs of mans
kinship with all the other animals of
the earth, and in teaching us the i'm
portant role of natural selection" in
the evolutionary process, Darwin has
rendered an incompatible service to
humanity. The great German Social
list scholar, Karl Kautsky, has well de-
clared that Darwin's contributions to
science belong to the greatest and
most fruitful of the human intellect,
and enable us to develop new cri-
tique of knowledge"
1t is absolutely necessary to a
sound understanding of Socialism
that we get the evolutionary point of
view
In speaking of the value of Charles
Darwins contribution to the theory of
evolution, Mr. Arthur Balfour recently
said
Charles Darwin's great perform
ances have now become part of the
common intellectual inheritance of
every man of education, wherever he
lives or whatever his occupation or
trade in life. To him we trace, in the
main, the view which has affected not
merely our ideas of the living organ.
isms, but our ideas upon politics, upon
sociology, ideas which cover the whole
domain of human terrestrial activity
He is the fount and origin, and he will
stand for all time as the man who has
made this great, and, as I think, be-
inefficient revolution in the mode in
which educated men can see the his
tory, not merely of their own institu-
tions, not only of their own race, but
OF everything which has that unex-
planned attribute of life, everything
