THE SOCIALIST VOTE.

The first presidential prediction
has been made. 1t emanaics from
the first presidential nominee for the
1916 campaign. Allan l.. Benson OF
iOnkerH. y. Y. the Socialist candi.
date, announces confidently that he
viii receive 100000 votes next So
vembcr
That would be ll0O,0OO votes more
than the Socialist party has eyer
cast for President. It would be no
greater a gain prOportiOnatcly how
ever. than that Of last election. En-
gene V. DebS. after receiving 42n, 5000
votes in 1908, made jump Of more
than 100 per cent in 1912, and got
9Ol 900 votes out Of about $1,000, 900
east
But there is no subject Of political
speculation more dubious today than
the fate Of the Socialist party. The
war has swept the Socialists from
their mOOringS. Mr.. EengOn processes
to believe that he will poll big vote
by way Of popular protest against
war. Socialism, he insists, Is going
to establish "thc rule Of kindness"
in public and international affairs.
And yet this Is precisely where the
Socialists of Europe have fallen down
since the war began. Nearly all OF
them seem TO be fighting and sup
porting their cOunlry's military pol
icy willingly. The new information.
alsm and 'the brotherhood Of man
have lost their power as party slo,
gans. Even some OF the foremost
American Socialists have spoken in
favor of big armament. ...'..
The Socialists, in fact, have shown
in time Of crisis that they are not
snper-economsts and super.humani.
tarians. but human beings very much
like other men. As a result their
organizations in Europe are shot to
pieces.
