What Socialism Means. Monopoly’s curse, the piling up of colossal fortunes by the few at the ex- pense of the many. the weary, blighling.r slavery of the masses, the bitter, grind- ing poverty which seeks refuge in sui- cide or the sale of body and§soul, will never be abolished until the principles of socialism are adopted. Socialism is not anarchy; it is not the support of ;the idle and vicious at- the expense of the toilers; it is not a robbing of the industrious by an en~ forced division of his gains with those who refuse to work ; it is none of these, but society, as present organized, per- mits and fostersjust such abuses. Men fear socialism as an unholy thing be- cause they attribute to it the intention, to do that which they recognize as out- rageous. Ostrich-like, however, they hide their heads in the sands of tradition and endure the very evils which they charge that socialism will cause. The truth is that socialism means the aboli- tion and destruction of all such abuses. Socialism means the enjoyment by every man of the fruits of his own labor; it means an opportunity for the over- worked" 'man and the weary, heart- broken woman to partake of the culture and refinement now denied them and to feel the warm glow of comfort and in- dependence; it means that the worker shall enjoy the whole of every day’s labor performed by him, and that no part thereof shall be given up under ' duress to the support of those who waste it in riot and wanton‘ncssfit means that the manifold riches of nature shall be the common heritage of all men, and : it is the most. convenient. day. Probably not’a thinking man lives to-day who does not believe in co~ operation. The difference of Opinion exists only 0.. the question of how best to co-Operate. Some say private co- operatic.) like the trusts and department stores, and others say government co- operation. I say neither one is right. I believe in co-operation by Organized society and I choose not to call this 50-. ciety government Universal co-oper- anon means socialism, but socialism meansadozeu different things. Some socialists uses the word government. ' I frequently use that word too, because To-day I favor co-operation through government, butI maintain that this cO-operation will finally abolish what is called gov- ernment and we will then have volun- tary co-operation through the collect- ivity. Call it government if you will, for, like the rose, it will smell ass-sweet. â€"-Eugenc V. Brewster. ‘0 Worse Than Yellow Literature. The papers are filled with accounts of murders and suicides. The war fever has a maddening effect on the peo- ple. This and similar paragraphs have repeatedly appeared in these columns. Last week a Toronto lad of 14 shot his father, and the coroner’s jury denounc« ed the reading of detective stories. Worse than detective stories, however, is the war literature published in nearly all our daily and weekly papers. To kill an enemy is pictured as sport by men of high station in life. A member of Parliament in South Africa likens the sport to “ hunting rabbits.” Buyo- nctiug the enemy is spoken of as “ pig- sticking.” Life is a thing of little value and death a. tribute of worth to the van- quished. Who can picture the effect upon the youth of our land, especially when teachers, in Toronto, at least, when news of battles arrive, stop their lessons and talk sometimes for an hour about victories won for the flag by patriotic soldier-Isl No more lessons can be mas- tered on those days; and when the child- ren proceed to their homes they are at- tracted by bulletin boards on which are pictures of men, women and children using firearms. knives and bludgcons with deadly efl'ect. Yes, yellow liter- ature is badâ€"very badâ€"but there are worse evils in our community to which the coroner's jury on unfortunate Peter McIntyre made no reference last week. and concerning which the press and pulpits in Toronto and elsewhere are all but silent.â€" Citizen and Country. ~o 0A ¢â€"-~ A' Sensible Girl.

These are the vital principles of socialism, and, when real- ized, there will be no more human breth- ren to the ox; neither will there be human vampires who suck the blood of toiling men and women.

Men now work and slave from eight. to fourteen hours a day. If it were not for the labor unions men would be working twenty- four hours a day if they could stand it. Some people today have a million times the amount of necessaries they can ever use. Millions of people to-dav do not know where the next loaf of bread is coming from. If there were an equal distribution of the necessaries of life, and if society were properly or- ganized, and if the machines and trusts and the railroads were owned by the callectivity. then food, clothes and shel- ter would be as plentiful as water. There could be no millionaires and no paupers. Every man would have to do some useful work in order to get a living, and he would not. have to hunt long for that work. Instead of work- ing ten hours a day, every man would propOsed to-night, went down on his knees, said I was the only power on earth that could save him, and If I didn’t consent to become his wife he would fill a drunkard's grave.” “ What did you say ?"
