ECONOMIC DARKY IN
THE WOODPILE

The unadmitted cause of all our
economic woes boils down to just
this:
Capitalists, by the logic of their
own system, face the irreduceable
fact that labor cannot support capi-
tai and itself on less than enough to
support itself Labor cannot support
capitalism on just enough to support
itself And capitalism is not self
supporting.
Capitalists think money is wealth,
that it grows by some inexplicable
inherent power of its own.
Capitalists think they can pay labor
a million dollars in wages, and by a
process of interest and profit-taking
get back million and half dollars
This depression and the other eigh-
teen recorded for the past century
and half proves that capitalism is
constantly overtaking the purchasing
power of the masses.
If capitalists would permit labor to
get a substantial margin over and
above bare needs-that then would

ANTI-DRY VOTE
Held Victory For Labor In
North Carolina

Raleigh, N. c. (ILNS)-The vote
of Robert R. Reynolds in the demo-
cratic senatorial primary assumes
national significance, in view of the
fact that North Carolina has been
regarded as stronghold of prohi-
bition support. Reynolds, who receiv-
ed some 10000 more votes than
United States Senator Cameron Nor
rison, fanatical and wealthy dry of
Charlotte, has taken a fearless stand
in opposition to so-called prohibition,
insisting that it is intolerable and
must go. Three other candidates
divided about 10000 votes and as
neither Reynolds nor Morrison won a
a second primary will be
necessary to decide the winner, unless
Senator Morrison withdraws.
The vote of Reynolds, a six-foot
from Asheville, was
achieved in the face of what might
well have been regarded as insur-

common sense, like truth is supposed
to be embraced only by children and
fools. That would be capitalism for
labor, which, of course, is unethical--
absurd: undignifed.

wealth and pauperism-unemploy-
ment; yellow dog contracts; starva-

mountable obstacles, and is seen as d
victory for the common man and
woman. Senator Morrison had the
support of the machine" He had
the backing of the great corporate
interests, particularly the Duke mill
lions. The church groups that have
steadfastly opposed any candidate
who would "tamper with the prohibi-
ton laws and bring back drink" join
ed his ranks.
And yet, the young mountaineer
entered the race with a clear-cut pro-
gram and a fearless advocacy of cast
ing aside the hypocrisy with which
the liquor issue has been covered. He
asked the public to face the facts and
to vote their honest convictions. They
did.
The vote given Reynolds may we'll
be regarded as a victory for organ
lied labor. Reynolds has taken a
definite stand in favor of the work
ing group, and he had most of the la
Dor groups over the state tearing
their shirts to pile up votes for him.

The annual outing of Butler Aerie,
F. O. E., will be held at the fair
grounds Monday, July 4. AS usual the
big $1,000 fireworks display will in
clude many new and novel features,
among which are gigantic reproduc-
tion in line of fire of George Wash
ington. This set piece is unquestion-
ably the foremost outstanding feature
of the entire program in its glory and
color. This set piece will be built up
on frame 10 feet by 10 feet, and
when in action there will be mass
of fire extending twenty-five feet
from all parts of the set piece. Two
18-inch American flag shells and one
18-inch searchlight shell, to be shot
into the air the same time George
Washington's set piece is in action,

JOBLESS AID
Costing New York Enor-
nous Sum Yearly

New York City (ILNS) Publ.
and private relief agencies are spend
ing at the rate of $65, 100000 a year
for direct aid to the destitute unem-
ployed, an expenditure wholly un-
precedented in the history of New
York city, according to an analysis
prepared by the research bureau of
the Welfare Council
This expenditure is exclusive of
municipal and state aid to the desti-
tute blind, to widows, and to needy
aged persons living outside of insti-
tutions, the combined expenditures
for which at present are at the rate
of $2O,OOO,OOO year.
William Hodson, executive director
Of the council, said there is no way
of ascertaining what proportion of
the latter expenditures are directly
attributable to the present depres-
sion. In the opinion of the welfare
that considerable part of this need
is by-product of long-continued un-
employment"
Relief Spending Scars
The analysis shows that the expen-
diture for unemployment relief by
private agencies, which are supported
through contributions, increased
from $4,000,0OO in 1880 to nearly $14,-
100000 in 1881, and to $7,84O,000
during the first four months of 1882.
The expenditures for unemployment
relief by public agencies, the council
reported, increased from $1,7O0000
in 1880 to $11 100000 during 1881,
and to $12,600,000 during the first
four months of this year.
Figures Represent Actual Aid
When the public and private ex-
penditures for unemployment relief
are added to the expenditures of the
semi-official agencies, such as the
mayors relief committee and the
school relief work of the Board of
Education, the totals are $6,2O0,0O0
pfor 1880, $27 100000 for 1881 and
$21, 100000 for the first four months
of 1882.
"These figures" the council said,
represent actual relief to the unem-
ployed; they include neither the cost
of operating the public and private
welfare agencies nor the many health
and welfare services which families
of the unemployed share with the
rest of the community; and they do
not include the cost of caring fer
homeless men and women to whom no
money, but food and lodging, has been
given"
