VOTING FOR A WINNER. :

VOTING FOR A WINNER. - The
working class ought to abandon the
idea Of always wanting to be with a
winner. The working class has up
to this time almost always voted for
men who had a chance to win. IN
fortunately, however those winners
usually have been agents of the cap
itaIist class. Consequently the work
ing, 95 per cent of our population,
has been misTepresented.
The seIf-styled intelligent voter
usually claims that the Socialists
haven't got a chance, and, therefore,
votes in his imagination for the So

words, for a good man instead of for

tary matters do not plead for the

newspaper strikers and of the work
ers in other industrial disputes.
There is no sucI~thing as demo-
cratic military service. For the pri-
vate in any army must lose all in
dividuaIity and freedom. He must
simply obey. Furthermore, in order
to democratize any institution every
function of that institution must be
sociaIized and democratized. Now
how can one assert that Mr.. Rookie
Teller and the unemployed workman
have the same privileges to defend?
Have the WOrkmen the same chances
for a university career as the rich?
If not, what have they to sacrifice
themselves for?
The American people are only
self-goVerning body in theoretical
sense. In practice the rich govern
with the same rigor in this country
as in any mOnarchic country of Eu-
rope, and compulsory military serv-
ice will never tend to adjust this So
ciaI anomaly.

WITHOUT A CoUNTRY.-'T have
no country" said an 11-year-oId ne
gro boy, and refused to salute the
flag. He was arrested and brought
before the judge on a charge of con-
tempt of court.
On reading the above news item
was reminded of Tolstoi's book, "The
Slavery Of Our Times"
How rotten, corrupt and wicked
governments are! TOlstoi says that
when the individual crook commits
a crime he asks no one to join him,
he forces no one to belong to his
group. Quite different it is with gov
ernments and legal robbers and muir
derers, When they commit a crime
they force you to join them; when
they are about to begin a slaughter
they make you take hand.
The negro boy is probably the
son of a prOpertyless wage worker,
a member of a race prosecuted,
sneered at. Out of work, out of
money, the only home such a can
could call would be a job. This ne
gro boy, then, was, in my opinion,
justified to say he had no country.
Were I in his place would say:
''This is not workingman's coun-
try, but the country of a few para
sites. The workingman has no coun-
try and has no flag to salUe."
Let those who own this country
salute their own flag and fight for it,

NOT LIKE NEW EXPERIENCE
Butcher Had Suffered Before From
the Franks INDUCED in by His
Frisky Horse.

The eccentricities- of Yankee char
acter are innumerable, and they are
almost always amusing. In Maine
town a gentleman was standing with
some friends on his tennis lawn when
the horse of the village butcher-a
rather frisky animal-came dashlng
madly over terrace from the street,
hinging the unfortunate butcher into
the tennis net with 4 shoulder OF beef
on top of him, and big block of ice
thlmped with good deal of force into
his side.
The fiery steed completed his work
by dragging the wagon to which he
was attached over his PROSTATE mas
ter and then flying away to demolish
it and the lawn turf together by
careening along until stopped by a
tree. The butcher was taken up in
sensible and pretty badly bruised. AS
soon as he could be restored to con-
seriousness one Of the bystanders pro-
nounced the usual conundrum whether
he was hurt.
The butcher tried to move, found
he could not, gave sickly smile, and
then said, jauntily:
ooh, it's nothing! don't mind. I'm
used to it"
