There is a sense of loueiiuesa, while whirling over the rails, that in- vites company. The gentleman whose acquaintance I made was both a student and a scholar. Our conversation soon turned to economic questions, and led to mutual explanations. I was cnroute to attend a Socialistic convention, and he was returning to New Yet-k after a business tri west. He was a. Wall-~ , I . . p ’ I‘here are about three million Social- street. speculator, and a man of great wunlth. A remarkable conversation tol,’ lowed. I found him thoroughly conver- sant with the philosophy of Socialism. " It. is," he said, “a common custom among men of my class to discuss Soci- alisric economics, never, however, in the hearing of clerks or employees. The men now at the head of economic affairs are thoroughly cognizant of the inevita- ble trend towards Socialism, and realizt: that the trusts are but. doing the pre- liminary work of organization, that will eventually lead to collective owuership by all the people of the industries the trusts are now organizing." I asked : “ Since you are so clear in your analysis, why do you not openly espouse Socialism ? ” “ That. is not our work," he replied, " but the task set for the working class. If they wait for us to establish Social- ism, it will never come, for we have plenty, and, so long as we can live from the toil ol'othcrs, you may depend upon it that we will continue to do so. I be- lieve, however, that it is inevitable that the working classes will unite their strongth'and capture the political pow- ers, and then the establishment of Soci- alism-will be inevitable.” ' The conversation then turned to the impending panic. and to my request for information concerning coming eVents, this was his reply : “ Experienced Wall street men real- ize that it cannot long be delayed, and the wise ones are preparing for it by slowly selling their stocks on the mar- ket, and buying bonds or converting them into cash. When the crash comes I shall go to Italy,'and spend my days at the watering places and in the art galleries, where I shall not see the sul- fering of my countrymen.” This is a true report of the essentials of the conversation. We separated, and 1 shall probably never see the man a- guin, but 1 shall never forget his words. His analysis was cold and cruel, and gives the key to the mental attitude which one must cultivate in order to become rich. Business is business. It is devoid of any sentiment whatever. It must coin profits, though millions starve. It ceases to be business when it departs from this iron-clad rule. What a lesson this should be to the working classes. Oh, what a set of asses you arel How blind to your own interest 1 You freese, when you might be comfortable! You starve, when you might have plentyl Every year you take a power that is so mighty that it could sweep the whole capitalist system from the Face of the earth. and in its place create an Eden . of plenty, and freely give it to your in- du<trial masters. This power is the ballot. Working-men, until you learn to live this power you must be slnvm’ and drag down to slavery your inuocen'v wist and babies. Unite at the hall-it box just once, and your freedom is won. Kindle the fire with your democrtuic and republican newspapers. and kin-lie. thoughts in your brains by studying Socialism An old party politici=tn is the most vicious “ scab " that. ever pol- luted the earth with his pre~unce. A Void him as you would a serpent. Make him a. thing despised and abhorrod of oil men. Be your own master; think your own thoughts; use the ballot for your- selves aud your class. Be a man. with manhood and courage, instead of u mere tool, expressing ignorance and coward- ice._â€"-J. A. Wayland. . Socialism in Germany. The urcat standing army of Germany and the survival oi'a. feudal nobility are today the greatest danger to a peacelul solution of the social problem in Ger» many. The feudal barons and the im- pcriul figurehead will, of course, oppose the. legal victory of the Socialists, as long as they can use the army to fight their battles. They have already pro- ceeded to practically exclude the minor- ity in the reichstag (parliament) from active representation by a chance in the order of business. .The emperor, alarm- ed at the great increase of the Socialist strength, is contemplating,r the disl'rsn- chisement ot' the majority of the work- ing men; and the next reichstnu’s elec- tion in June, 1903. will probably be the turning: point in the history of the em- pire and of German Socialism. But the case is by no means hopeless from the point of view of the Socialists. In the first place, there is no doubt thus the army will refusc to fire indiscrimi- nately on the people. In’the seem. place, the Socialists have been serving in the army themselves, and are, there- fore, as well drilled as the rest of them. ists in the empire to-day. and they rep- resent an organization of such discipline and organization as has never been known in the history of the world. The revolution of such an organization Would be different from any revolution ever at» tempt-ed. ‘ There are about two and a half mil- lion men available for field service in Germany; but that includes at least one-hult' reserves and landwehr. and the majority of these are Socialists. If the emperor were to arms these, he would arm the revolution'he is trying, to stifle. If he dees not arm them, he has not men enough to fight the organâ€" ized Socialist party. Of course the So» cialists lack arms; but all revolutions have shown that it is possible to secure arms. Where there is a will there is a way. It would not be so very d-iflicuit for the Socialists to overpower all the smaller garrisons, end then concentrate their forces in the industrial centres, for the purpose of cutting, the emperor‘s army oll' from all supplies. The other countries would not be able to materially assist the Gernmn capitol- ists in this emergency, for there are strong Socialist parties in all of these countries, and the capitalists in them . would have their hands full. The S.»- cialists can await the comingr ol' tho-m events with much more equuuimity than the emperor.â€"-Socialisc paper. 0..â€" Wage Slavery. Chattol slavery was the buying of the right to hold the person of the slave and compel it to work for the pleasure or profit of the master. Wan slavery is the buying of the person for just such time as you may wish it. without pay- ing down any capital, without lukin-z any care of it, or taking any risks. No one would sell himsch or herself iom wage slavery, if not compelled to do so by want; so the capitalists get control of all the necessities of the people, and refuse to let them have them. unles< they agree to work on such conditions as the master pleases. No master of wage slaves has the some interest, the some kindly feeling; for them. that the chattel muster had for his slaves. l'lc become attached to them and was soi- dom harsh. There is no nttncllln~ut of come and go all the time. Clint-tel slur- ery was not as profitable as wage Slave- 1 the master to the wage slaves. They ‘ ry. There were no millionaires crcntcl by chattel slavery. There were no mos- ters of tens of thousands of slaves, on there are of wage slave masters.
