If the Chinese hash-house keeper ' had done you down for ten cents, or even if you only thought he had rob- bed you of ten cents, would n’t there be a lovely row? Your righteous in- dignation would know no bounds. The crockery would fly, the house would be wrecked, 'while the police would probably arrive too late to save the Celestial’s life. It might cost you a fortnight’s wages or a month of your time, but you would be satisfied to take it out of the “Chink,” even if it cost you more. Your mates would sympathize with you and you would become a hero; for it is a great crime, says the, lawyer, the politician and the capitalist, to rob a poor workman of even ten cents. 'The. above thoughts remind me of the story of a cruel and pitiless rob; bery. The victim’s name must be sup- pressed for obvious reasons, though you are at liberty guess it if you can. This man was robbed before his birth as well as after. His mother was robbed of her share of nourishment and comfort ; as a result the babe was born into the world poor in physique, lacking in good rich blood, which na- ture says is essential to a healthy child. The baby’s childhood days need not be. described in detail. Think of. your own, and add a few miseries to it; for remember that, as the years have gone, the struggle for existence has become keener, even among child- ren. Of course, the child was robbed of a few years of childhood, for a child should be happy, care free, developing body and mind along natural lines. Naturally, with its inherited poor phy- sique and its lack of nourishment, the child was slow in assimilating educa- tion. This fact, combined with the necessity of cutting short its school- days owing to the need of aiding its father to provide the daily menu, sim- ply meant that the child was robbed of its education. The .child was sent to work among men in an iron foun- dry, and became a man in all but years. ' For artime the lad labored on, doing a man’swork, till slack times came. Then, of, course, he was fired. The lad drifted away from home. Odd jobs came his way ; he became a casu- al laborer. Finally, when casual work became even morepasual, he became a hobo, drifting around. He was jailed for vagrancy, jailed, for trying to beat a freight out of a worklcss town, jail- ed again because he could not give a good account of himself or of what he was doing for a living, and because he had two previous convictions against him. Now he is a man in years, but in nothing else. His manhood has gone, or perhaps it will be better to say that his manhood has not yet ar- rived. He never realizes that he has been robbed of all that makes life worth living. No suspicion of the truth has crossed his mind. They who robhcd him have woven the most cunning web across his eyes. They have convinced him that it is his own folly and sin which are responsible for his misery. That his past sufl'ering and present condition are but a reflex of his own wickedness. “ As a child,” thhy say to‘ him, “you refused to make the most of your opportunities while at school. Later yen drifted into casual work in: stead of getting regular employment. You broke the laws of man and were jailed. Shake yourself together, assert your manhood, or think where you will spend eternity.” The poor sufferer makes spasmodic efforts to shake himself together; but, from childhood onward, all that was essential to the development of a healthy, strong will has been denied him. He fails;--and when he sees his spiritual and moral advisers, well clad, healthy and happy, he is ashamed and slinks across the street to hide him- self from their sight. Some day he will awaken, tear the web from his eyes and see himself as he is, not as others say he is. He will realize that he and others like him are what they are because his moral, spiritual and legal advisers are what» they are. He will realize that robbery means victims ; that robbery by a class from a class means a class of victims. Then his docility will give place to an- ger, and when his anger is swelled by the anger of his class, the reckoning will comeâ€"\V. Lewis. ______-_...... . Honest Confession- One day I sat with half a dozen of the best writers in the country. One of them earns a salary as large as that; of the president of the United States. Another earns more than$50,000 a year. The other three or four earn no less than $20,000 a year each. You can hardly pick up a magazine with- out seeing their names. \Vhat one of them writes, ten million persons road. Hundreds of thousands read eagerly every word. written by the others. But there is no single one Ofthcso wage earners who is not heartily sick of his job. No one of them will write- lies, but no one of them can write the whole truth. One evening one of them said to me, “I’ve got to quit it. I can stand it no‘longer. I spent all day yesterday with the proprietor of. a great magazine. I had to fight for ev- ery line and every word I wrote.” Anâ€" other’said to me, “ Do you suppose, if I came into the Socialist and labor movement, I could make a. living? l: want a bare living, and a chance to say the whole truth.” The whole truthâ€"for these men are ' Sooialists. Not a single magazine or newspaper will permit them to preach the truth. â€"-Robert Hunter. mu â€"-â€"_____ our»: ‘. .3- Va _-. 1:? arching as well as that of Ranchers, Cattle Dealers, Miners, Lumbermen and Merchants, tention.
