The while, 'twixt shrug and gesture,
In careless wise he says:
Though others scratch and scramble.

The flower grows, the wine flows,
The dawn smiles. the noon glows,
The bee sucks the red rose,
And that's enough for me =.
If still you shake his shoulder,
And still the theme pursue
With talk about his duties.
And all that he should do,
IT'S then, grown grave, he'll answer
In accents, calm and COO,
As though he were the wise man
And you, In truth, the fool:

"New conceptions of right and justice

The idea that the working class as

~ that it is not the wage earning masses
that back the demand, but only the small

insure adequate representation to each

asserts, that the French peace delega-
ton as designated by the French gov
ernment, a government resting on the
Will OF the people, represents the "em-

"What is the basis of the demand that

the French people, roughly speaking, con-
sists of 100000 souls Out of this the
working class amounts to 100000 Why
this one-eighth of the population should
have special representation such as is not
