Plenty of the good things of life for everybody. A fine house to live in,ifine’furniture in it, and fine'lawns and trees about it. A ta- ble loaded with good things to eat. An abundance of clothing, comfortable and elegant. Opportunity and means to trav- el all over the world. Leisure to read and play and work. No poverty any more, with its filth and sickness and misery and vice. With all these things Socialism will get the consequences of all these things, a. natural human devel- opment, large, healthy, noblo men and Women, a happy, energetic, progressive race. You say all this is a dream? No; no dream at all, but an immediate pos- sibility. By means of the vast new ma- chinery of this modern world, we can produce wealth enough for all without any trouble whatever. A modern cotton 'mill in place of the old hand loom, a modern railroad in place of the old stage-ceach, a modern Electric Light Company in place of the, old candle mould, a modern shoe factory in place of the old bench shoemaker; by means of these new appliances :1 man can pro duce a hundred or. a thousand times as much wealth as in the times of our fathers. There is no doubt. at all about this. Modern inventions have so in- creased the productive capacity of civi- lized mankind that all men could have an abundance of wealth by working on- ly three or four hours a day. Socialism proposes to get this abun- dance for all; and in order to get this abundance for all, we must do some- thing. Wc are not getting it now. What shall we do to get it? Socialism proposes something very definite to do. It is this : Take to ourselves these vast new inventions and use them for pro- ducing wealth for all instead ef produc- ing it for a few. The only reason we are not well off now is that a few people own these great. modern tools and refuse to let us work at them, except when they can make a profit for themselves. The fact is, not more than half of us are allowed by these capitalists, or great machine owners, to work even half the time. If we owned these factories and‘ railroads and mines and mills ourselves, and all of us worked 'at them to produce Wealth for our own use and happiness, all the troubles of poverty would disap. pear at once. The only thing that lies between us and the promised land is this private ownership of the means of producing wealth. Therefore,‘what Socialism pro proses to do, in order to get wealth for all, is to take possession of the Instru- ments of Wealth Production and run them for the use of all. o...â€"-â€"â€"â€"â€"-â€" Old Age Under Uapitalism. ._.._â€" “Orin Hall, who said he was 86 years old, was taken in charge by the police here yesterday. He said he had tramped from North Ferrisburg, Ver- mont. He is probably the oldest va- grant on record in Connecticut. Hall told the police that he had left the home of a son-in-law, Edwin B. Collins, in North Ferrisburg, because he was not wanted about the place, and that he had ever since been on the road."â€" Wesltt'ngton (D. 0.)

Become you and I would like this thing is the rea- son we should provide it for others. “ For as we do to others. so shall it be done unto us.” When we Socialists be; you to come with us and help'providc such desirable things, you rise in your wrathâ€"your political wrathâ€"and can ease us of being traitors and fomcnters of strife. And many of you who real this article will be kicked out by your children in your old age, helpless, wan- daring on the face of God’s good earth, with no place to lay your heads. Oh. men and women of America l why will you be so blind ?â€"--Jas. A Wayland. â€"-â€"â€"â€"-â€"â€"‘Q*o The Law of Dollars. The article ef Millionaire Lawson. in Everybody’s Magazine, is another szarz- liug exposure of the rottenness of the capitalistic system which both old parâ€" ties are pledged to uphold. After show- in;r how Rogers and Rockefeller“ made $36,000,000 at a stroke which amounu ed to the boldest robbery,” {\‘1 r. lnwson says: “ There is today, uncontrolled, in the hands of a set of men. a power to make dollars from nothing. By a finan- cial trick the people can be ab=olute§y plundered of their savings for the bone- fit of the few. At no time in the history of the United States has the power of dollars been as great as now. Freedom and equity are controlled by dollars. The laws which should preserve and en- forcc all rights are made and GllfOl‘Ol‘il by dollars.” Nor is this the saddest feature of the situation. “ On the oth- er‘ hand,” he concludes, “ I have had to know, about the horrors, the misfor- tunes, the earthly hell, which were the awful consequences of-the taking of this vast amount. 1 have had to know about the convicts, the suicides, the broken hearts, the starvation and wretchedness, the ruined bodies and lost souls which strewed the fields of the ‘system's’ har- vest.”â€"-Thc Vanguard. ‘4.â€" A Fortune Built on Misery. The Democratic party is pratine of a return to “ Jefl'ersonian simplicity." Shades of the great Thorn-as J. himself! You should see the home of Henry G. Davis, the party’s Vice-Presidential candidate. It is a palace fit for an emperor. It surpasses in splendor every home in West Virginia save the home of the Republican United States Sen- ator Stephen B. Elkios. who. by the way, is a son-in-law of Mr. Davis. While Henry G. Davis lives in a style that is truly royal, the poor min» ers that delve in the earth and bring forth the wealth that pays for all the Davis splendor, are themselves housed like cattle. No doc: or horse owned by Mr. Davis would be allowed to dwell fora day in the miserable shacks where the miners of his coal camp live. The rich man’s dog and horse must have the comfort and convenience of life, but the poor human slaves which produce the rich man’s wealth must be satisfied with a place to crawl into and sleep. Yet millions of working-men, by their votes next November, will declare that the continuance of this pitiful economic contrast is right and proper.-â€"â€"M. W. Wilkins, Socialist organizer.
