Rockefeller is with us in Les Angeles. It took him two weeks to reach here from New York. In that time his income was 82,000,000. It took him fifteen minutes to walk lrom his private car to a room in the Hotel Green. For that walk he was re- paid by an increase to his wealth of $1- 750. The first night ol his stav he slept eight hours, and awoke $54 759 richer for his repose. With the aid of his va- let, it took him exactly half an hour to dress. By the time he was ready for his breakfast he could have signed a cheque, in favor of himself, so to speak, for $3,500. that being the amount he earned in that brief space of time. The iourney from his bed chamber to his chair in the hotel dining-room occupied just five minutes, for which providence ‘paid him $570. After breakfast, three hours were spent 0n the golf links, for which enjoyment, thanks to the Ameri- can people, he received $20,534. After luncheon, as he slowly lighted his cigar, $100 came into his possession. But the above gives only a small ides of the rapidity with which our comrade is growing “ rich.” It is only four years since his last visit to the Pacific coastl At that time the San Francisco Cal. made an accurate estimate of his pos- sessions, and of his income. This I give below: ‘ nocxsrsttnn Pon'rnss, 1897.

It the amount. under their control increases iu'ihc some pro- portion ns Comrade Rockcl'cller's l'or- tune, by 1900 they will own or control $80,000,000000; by 1910, $160 01m - 000.000. As the total possession‘ oi‘ n l the states by that time will only ho v.1- ucd at $130,000,000 000, these men will own the American people. Are August Bebel and Eugene V. Debs far wrong when they declare it to be a mathematical certainty that we shall see the end of the competitive sys~ t'em in 1908? Is there any Chance, think you, of our seeing Socialism in our time? o‘. A Seciallstic Rooster. William Morris, the celebrated En- glish philosopher, artist and poet, wrote a fable, which I shall Americanizc for your delectation : About Christmas time the poultry 0f n certain country held a great convention for the good of the race, at which it Was resolved that the most important subject to poultry was u WITH WHAT SAUCE THEY SHOULD BE EATEN.” After which many prominent members of the meeting aired their va- rious views on the subject. There was a large following that adhered to tariff for protection sauce; others contended that free trade sauce was the thing; others for labor union sauce; others for single tax sauce; others for public own- ership of railroad sauce; others for pe- per money sauce; others for imperial sauce; and others for anti-trust sauce. When they had worried over these un- til the boldest rooster had grown hoarse and the hens ceased to cacltle, a batter- ed old barnyard cock took the floor and, much to the surprise and disgust of the vast assembly, declared that'he did not want to be eaten at all. He was imme- diately sat upon by the poultry working class and turned over to the police, with execrations for being a Socialist, anar- chist, disturber of the peace and general nuisance. The assembly then ordered that their resolutions be engrossed and sent to tnchecd poulterer. Can you draw the moral ?-â€" Wayland. ' ' _-__‘_.-.â€"â€"_-_â€"_ Nice System, eh ? Business worries cause the suicide of 1,500 people a year in the principal cities of this conntry. Nice system, eh ‘I Vote for a system. believe in it, fight for it --and then kill one's self~ to get sway from it! The modern business man is a lulu. He never thinks-410 just thinks he thinks. He knowa less of the system he lives under, less of p0- litieal Questions. less of the phenomena. about him than the average laboring man who belongs to a union. The other day I met a business man from Kansas City, and we were discussing the growth and meaning of the trusts and m0n0p0~ lies, and he said that he had never had any insight into the subject until recent- ly, when'he engaged one of his work- men in couVersation, and he had his eyes opened as to what all thi~l ferment and crush meant. He said he was no match for the employee, whom hc' would have said, had he been asked. was an ignorant, stupid specimen of the genus homo. The business man is now rend- ing up, to he as intelligent as his'eni- ployce.â€"â€"Exchange. o" o Why Shut Your Eyes ‘I Think of the thousands of millions of money spent by the rulers in war nut- chines, and the millions of common peo- ple taken from uselul. productive indus- try to destroy wealth and property I And then to think of tho further fact that every dollar spent has to be paid by the laboring clnssl And that is the best kind of society that thepresent ru- lers know. Have n’t the working people ,_ 'i had enough experience in the matter to i quit upholding the rulers and their al- leged christian supporters ‘f liet us cs- tnblish Socialism. and then the workers will get all the wealth they produce, in every country, and there will be no wars. The working people do not wnnt. to kill each other, or invade other countries. The rulers wont this, so that they will have more people to rob by interest‘, rent and taxes. Why shut you!" eyes to the facts ?--Appeal to Rcuxona I- If you do n’t want Socialism. quit. professing to believe in the " Colder: Rule" as the rule of life. If you do n’t want Socialism, ‘quit praying “Thy kingdom come. thyifill ' be done on earth, as it is in heaven." '1 If you don't want Socialism, ""quit ‘advocating theluniverual Fatherhood ol God and the universal brotherhood of’ man.
