PLAN TO WORK
HARDER THAN EVER

Olympia, Wash, Nov. 27, 1916.
Northwest Worker, Everett, Wash:
Comrades-We have been watch
ing with interest and chagrin the ac-
lions of the authorities in Everett
relative to the workmen who happen
ed to come there. Our sympathies are
all with the workmen, and we trust
that it will cause them to try to dis
cover who are their real friends. 1t
seems almost incredible that the peo-
pie would return to office men such
as now hold office there. However,
such is the case all over the country,
with very few exceptions.
Here in Thurston county we made
good fight but were defeated by
the old crowd. The Socialist vote here
ran about $50 for the Socialist ticket,
but in the case Of state superintend-
ent for public instruction the vote
was 1,060; state senator, 1880, and
county clerk, 1,177. The latter two
were unopposed except for the repub-
lican candidates.
This county is now ripe for organi-
zation, and we have some very effect
i've workers scattered throughout the
county. We plan to organize more
thoroughly than ever before, and be-
gin a most active campaign for the
1918 election.
Your valuable paper has been of
great service to us in this campaign,
and we are planning to extend the
circulation here just as rapidly as
possible, so that the number of Henry
Dubbs may be reduced and the army
Of intelligent workers may be in
creased.
Wishing you the utmost success,
we remain, fratrnally yours,
f. H. SYLVESTER. .

SOCIALISM AND RELIGION

To Mrs. Carr and Her Compatriots
Your qualifications for Christian
would exclude about all the Chris
tians in Christcndom.
If John burroughs was guilty Of
making the statement you say he did,
then 7 must quote HIM against him
self, for he said "ihc highly religious
ages were ages &c blood and lersecu-
ton Mans tenderness for man has
vastly increased. The sense Of the sa-
credness Of human life has increased
as his faith in his gods has declined.
He has grown more human as he has
grown less superstitious. Science has
atrophied his faith, but has softened
his heart"
In the book upon which Christians
base their faith, Jesus is alleged to
have said, "Think not that | am come
to send peace on earth; came not to
send peace, but sword" Matt.
1894. Also read verse 35)
The rivers of blood that have been
shed for and in the name of Jesus
would tend to prove that this is the
one of his teachings that has been
most widely accepted. Wherefore by
their fruits ye shall know them"
Matt. 1920
When you say, "There are some
who claim to be Socialists who are
not" you pharaphrase what | said in
my first letter. Socialism, what am"
is based upon the materialistic con-
ception of history and ignores emo
tionalism of any kind. Socialism can
say of emotionalism what the philoso-
Ipher said of God, he was accused of
leaving out of his argument, it "has
mo need Of that hypothesis"
Fellow-workers, it is really worse
than useless to teach utopianism, be-
cause it will merely have to be I'M
learned before anything is accom-
plished. Don't waste time on the
plous bourgeoisie, but try to teach the
proletarians that their material in
terests depend upon the victory of
Socialism. Once get that in their
heads and nothing can sidetrack them,
then there will be no more Socialists
| CD voting for Wilson.
Yours for an uncompromising So
cialism, ELLA X. STONE.
