RYAN WALKER
COMES, TALKS
AND CONQUERS
BIG AUDIENCE LAUGHS
AT POOR "HENRY"

The most original contribution to
the modern world given by Socialism
is Ryan Walker, who, like the great
Voltaire, is making people wise
through laughing away their somber
superstitions. A Dubb can look him
self in the face at the mirror and still
take himself seriously. But no Dubb
has ever been known to outlive Ryan
Walker cartoon-lecture. He dies
through laughter there and then, for
this great creative genius gives to him
the gift to see himself as others see
him. The Dub expires, the real man
energies, living, intelligent human
being, in short, a Socialist. The orig
inator of the Dubb family might well
sign his letters, Ryan Walker, Social
list Maker"
Ye editor selected seat in the Ev-
erett Theater last Sunday, from which
he might at once watch the faces of
the big crowd and the cartoons so rap
idly sketched by the inimitable Walk
er. 1t was sure some study. We
don't know which part of the show we
enjoyed most, laughing at the mirth-
provoking cartoons or studying the
faces of those who laughed at and ap-
plauded them. After Ryan had
worked" twenty minutes, we couldn't
see real Dubb face anywherel For
the Dubb seldom laughs at ideas, his
mirth being confined, to, horse play
and rough-house comedy. Walker
made every man in the house think,
and when man thinks he ceases then
and there to be Dubb. When you can
make a man think of the absurdities
of capitalism and laugh at them, you
make of him, then and there, Social
list. Ryan Walker does this very thing.
So we believe that he has earned the
highest of all titles on this earth,
Socialist Maker"

HIGH SCHOOL BOY

rade has been doing little propagan-

here are the questions:

ARE GETTING
SOME DESPERATE

Milwaukee 'nonpartisan" politicians
are right up against the real thing
again. Here are few gentle words
from Mayor Bading:
"a crowd without home, without
"A country, unfit to be called Ameri-
cans, the Socialists again threaten
Milwaukee. We can't afford to turn
the city over to that gang. 1t would
give Milwaukee black eye the ma
ton over; we would be Stunned by
the decent people of this country.
Vote to protect your home and your
family, vote to protect those who are
to come after us, vote against the red
flag of Socialism,"
And here are some more from j. P.
Carney, who was defeated at the pri-
maries;
Faces Serious Situation
But Milwaukee today is again fac
ing serious situation. The fang of
the viper is ready to suck Milwaukee's
life blood Socialism, with all it's
heresies and un-American ideas, is
again knocking at the door. Will you
open that door or will you, as you
have done for the past four years, bar
it against the red flag and send out
word to the people of the United
States; yes, even to the world, that
Milwaukee will never again allow the
red flag to replace the stars and
stripes on the flag pole of the city
hall"

ARE WE FREE?

Did somebody say free contract 20,
STARS and Stripes, Freedom ~,
Don't have to-" etc?
Shelley has well asked and AN
swcrcd:
What Is Slavery?
Tis to work and have such pay
As just keeps life from day to day
In your limbs. as in cell,
For the tyrants use to dwell.
'ris to be slave in soul
And to hold no strong control
Over your own will but be
All that others make of We.
So that We for them are made,
Loom and pillow and sword and spade,
With or without your own will, bent
To their defense and nourishment.
'Tis to see your children weak
With their mothers pine and peak,
When the winters winds are bleak
They are dying whilst speak
'Tis to hunger for such diet
AS the rich man in his riot
Casts to the fat dogs that lie
Surfeiting beneath his eye.
And at length when you complain,
With a murmur weak and vain,
'Tis to see the tyrant crew
Ride over your wives and you.
Men of labor, heirs of glory,
Heroes of unwritten story,
Nurslings of one mighty mother,
Hopes of her and one another,
Rise like lions after slumber
In unvanquishable number;
Shake your chains to earth like dew
Which, in sleep has fallen on you!
We are many, they are few.

on land or sea, but useful enough for
oratorical purposes. In practice, the
ruling classes of the world, ancient
and modern, recognize only MIGHT.
AS the working class really has the
potential power, the MIGHT, to re
construct society in a manner con-
formable to their own needs, they will
eventually come out of their hypnotic
trance and throw off the yoke of the
puny master-class and establish for
themselves a true democracy, a real
Gland Of the free and home of the
brave" The Socialists are now en-
gagged in the task of arousing the gil
ant Labor from his trance, to the end
that the present ruling-class shall be
overthrow and classes, based upon
private ownership by the few of the
land and machinery necessary to the
many, shall be forever abolished.
