THERM Is about as much harmony
between the -LaFollette and So
SaAlist party forces in New York %
there would be between two catS tied
together by rope and strung over
lance one on each side. The EaSa
New York Independent Voters League
endorsed the candidacy Of Daniel
Cutman for member Of the Assembly
"a the 22nd Brooklyn District. Tbs
socialists have named candidate for
the same district. Here in Illinois
Len Small Is flirting with General
He'll an Maria Dawes and the social
lists are-o pins and needles,
SYHM socialist party leaders are
very much at home in the com
pany of Mr.. Dawes. But the workers
see In him a strikebreaker. In fact
Dawes Is the angel guardian Of the
socialists Of Europe. He is the chosen
instrument of the international bank
ars at this moment to bring about
capitalist normally in Europe, and in
the European socialists, Mr.. Dawes
found willing allies. But for the re-
quirements of political expediency,
the socialists would not attack Dawes
for his strikebreaking speeches. Hair
a dozen American labor takers can
show him a strikebreaking record
that would knock his pipe out of his
mouth. Len Small can associate with
Dawes and still have support OF the
labor takers. The labor takers are
not able to brighten Small. The gov
ernor has them where he wants them
and they dare not squawk. The So
ciaIist party must go along with the
political burglars no matter where
they feel like roosting.
THE latest news from the political
front is to the effect that the
famous Dennis e. Bait, editor Of the
Detroit Labor News and member of
the Proletarian Party, is running for
Congress in the State Of Michigan on
the Republican ticket. Bait is one OF
the gentlemen who thot the Workers
Party was not revolutionary enuf.
From the P. P. to the G. o. P! Yet
Il is not surprising. These petrified
dogmatists who are suffering from
mental congestion as a result OF
swallowing intellectual food they can
not digest, usually wind up In the
ememy's camp or else become cynical
addicts of some nut" philosophy,
watch permits them to sit down and
watch the class struggle middle
saong, while the cynics grin at the
stzpidity Of the workers. The monthly
Sheet Of Bats party, the Proletarian,
winds I'D a stupid collection of politi-
cal rubbish and clumsy lies with the
slogans ''In this year of political con-
fusion the Proletarian Party hews to
the revolutionary line let the votes
Tan where they may" OF course it
IN . case of "sour grapes" The wee
pnr<y led by the ex-cobbler, has
neither the membership nor the en-
erEy to make a campaign.
THE Socialist Labor Party is an
IL other freak organization that
hGtes the capitalist class much less
than It hates the revolutionists. This
Is typical of all reformers. The S. l..
p. appreciates the services Of the
capitalists IN preparing the ground for
the coming of socialism according to
tho constitution and it only fears
fhat the COMPOUNDED revolution will
not wait long enuf, at least until Ar
mold Petersen, the silent Cal' Of the
q. I. P. is over the draft age. This
unknown pie card artist would have
no excuse to draw his $4,000 a week
n the party that supports him did
