It is reported that Prof. Osborne, of \Vinnipeg, in speaking of the foreign- ers who are coming into the west, said recently, “I tell you that, thanks to the conditions which exist in Manitoba to-day, we stand to make these foreign- ers more ignorant and more vicious by far than they are when they come to us. Grasping landlords herd whole families into one room. ...... \Vhen we have improved the social conditions we can get at them spiritually.” Now, my good friends, you who be- lieve that a man living (and compelled to do so by unjust conditions) in a hovel and on the verge of starvation, should be good and a Christian and all that, what do you think of that prop- osition made by the renowned Winni- peg professor'l For this statement merely means that, in the opinion of the aforesaid gentleman, it is useless to try to teach spiritual truths to a peo- ple who are living under bestial'social conditions. And he is right, as you will decide, if you honestly consider the matter. Supposing that you, myfriend, had been born in the slums of one of our large cities. You were brought up next door to a saloon, and your earli- est recollections are of men, in the most beastly states of intoxication, be- ing carried away in the patrol wagon. Fights were so numerous as to cause no stir or excitement. You saw be- dizened women by scores and hund- reds, whom a damnably unjust econo- mic system had forced into lives of shame, plying their trade under your very eyes. Your mother worked prac- tically day and night to get bread for you, and your brutal father treated you all to a “knock down and drag out” existence when he was n’t so drunk as to be helpless. ' As you got a little older, say eight or nine years old, perhaps even younger, you began to shift for yourself. You started in business with a stock in trade consisting of a pair of your fath- er’s cast-oil" trousers and shoes, an old jacket picked up in a gutter 0r pilfered from some ragman, and a half-dozen newspapers. Usually you spent the night in a dry-goods box or under any old thing that would aflord a little shelter, and you were compelled to steal the greater part of the food (if it can be called such) that you procured. This is not overdrawn, my reader. I have been in these places and know whereof I speak. If you will invest- igate, you will find that the half. is not told in this. But to return. One day you were rummaging in a garbage can, in the hope of finding an apple core or other delicacy, when a preacher happened along (preachers do sometimes visit the slums, you kn0w,) and with a proper air of severity chided you for dirtying your hands. He went on to tell you that you should be a good little boy~ instead of a ragged urchin, and told you of the Creator and of His love forr you, and how not even a sparrow falls ‘1 to the ground without the Father knowing of it. And what did you say to him’! You had never heard the name of God, unless accompanied by a kick, and had never known what it was to really enjoy your childhood. It‘ seemed t0 you that you had always" been an old, old man, and had been compelled to struggle against hunger and cold almost from your birth. If ' this God that the preacher talked to you about was real He must have; overlooked you, or perhaps he never‘ came into such filthy places. At any.» rate, if he loved you so much, why‘ ‘i had n’t he looked after you a little; better? This is true to life, my friend. Now' what do you suppose your end would 3 have been had you been born and reared under similar conditions? I ask this question of you, my revercml friend. I ask it of you, ladies anr gentlemen, who sit in the cushioned pews on Sunday morning, and in ycudi smug, self-satisfied, way worship God ‘l Allow me to answer that question. I can tell you where the great majority‘ of you would have been under such conditions. You would have ended- your lives 0n the gallows, in the pris~ ons, brothels, asylums, etc., in which have died so many who, in a decent- environment, would have made useful- and mayhap brilliant men and women. Perhaps, who can tell, they might have outstripped you all in winning the love~ and respect of their fellow men. Yes, Prof. Osborne is right. He is‘ in line with the teachings of all the truly great men of history. He is in‘- line with the teachings of Confucius, who said, “When you have enriched the people, teach them ” ; of Christ and of practically all the great moral and religious teachers. And last, but not» least, in line with Socialist teachings.»- Perhaps he would be inclined to deny‘ the latter statement, but it is true’ nevertheless. Oh! my readers, can ’t you see that! it is impossible to rear angels inn. hell on earth’! Can ’t you realize that you‘ must change the environment of mil-'- lions of our people before it will be possible to make decent men and we“ men of them? Can ’t you see that the present system is dragging millions of‘ our brothers and sisters into the mire‘ all the time’! If you will but investi-- gate Socialism you will find that it‘ provides the cure by absolutely des-e troying the cause of their cxistencc;. You will find that this is the move- ment which seeks to organize society" on a cooperative basis ; which proposes to replace private ownership of “indus- try by social or public ownership, thus: assuring to every person an opportu- nity to earn his or her living in a (lo-- cent environment.â€"Roscoe A.
