Hamilton, Mgr. Fenelon Falls Branch W The Urge Towards Socialism. It is frequently said by those not understanding the Science of Socialâ€" ism that we will have to make men over before we can accomplish our ends; that human nature must be changed first. Man is too selfish to adopt the brotherhood principle. It is because man is selfish that we expect Socialism to triumph. We rely upon the fast growing identity of interest among the toiling many for the estab- lishment of the co-operative common- wealth. Man wants to get as much as he can. Man wants to marry, to have leisure, to give good things to his children, to enjoy this world’s goods. Men have been told to work hard and save their money, and they would become rich. «Men have worked hard and tried to save their money; ’ and the majority of them find that hard work does not bring wealth and that it is impossible to save a fortune. ' The industrial system has developed"; the men have to go to factories and into shops to work. They go to the owners of these places and beg for a job. They get a job that gives them' a. wage that will about cover the Cost of living. They find their fellow work- ers in the same condition; they all work hard and get but a living wage. So they learn to band together for their mutual interest. The union and the Socialist agitation are not main- tained ~ by the workingmen out of love for other workingmcn They are main- tained because the workers are realiz- ing that they cannot improve their lot by individual action The advance of the worker is bound up with the ad- vance of the working class. Hence it is the desire of the worker to improve his condition that makes him embrace Socialism. When the wages system was little developed, Socialism was impossible. The great majority of the people were against strikes, against the worker freeing himself. But, with the devel- opment of capitalist exploitation, the wage workers increased to millions in numbers, and each individual of these millions is coming to realize that his freedom can only come with the free- dom of the millions of workers. Hence grows the international Socialist move- ment. The urge towards Socialism is not based upon the sacrifice of the few unselfish. It is based upon the know- ledge of the millions Of workers that they can' only improve their lot by waging the class war. The selfishness of the individual man united to make the selfishness of the millions, will tend to introduce the common wealth sys- tem of production. There comes up another question. If it is'the selfish- ness of men that will make for Social- sm, it is also the selfishness of men that will cause the capitalist class to ii ht 76 Years in Business. Account plan. drawn at any time. Fenelon Falls Branch THE BANK OF ll America Capital and Reserve Over $7,500,000 ‘ chase of its leaders. Socialism willx not win, say some critics, because the working class will‘be disrupted by the gold of the exploiters. The conclusion does not at all follow. It is no doubt true that the capitalists will try their trickery and bribery, but such tricks ery will not succeed 3 for the workers will not rely upon leaders to save themâ€"they will save themselves. Gold and position have been offered and have done their work upon the individual. The National Civic Fede- ration, which pays Gompers and Mit- chell $6,000 a year each to belong to it and help create the spirit of identi- ty of interest, is a casein point, and“ Burns, accepting a position in the“ British cabinet, is another. Briand, Millerand and Viviani in France are other examples. Many a bribe to self- seeking labor leaders in the past has been paid by the masters. But the masters cannot afford to bribe the whole working class. The wealth of, the masters comes from the robbery of ' the workers. What bribe can they offer which would make it worth while to the working class to betray itself? The masters have attempted this bri- bery. They have held out the bait of old-age pensions, work for the unem- ployed, insurance for the unemployed, etc. But the bribery, spread over so manymembers of the working class, - appears to be pitiably weak. The day of the bribed leader is pass- ing. The workers are waking. They realize how much they are robbed. They know. Hence when some good talker pretends to stand in with the workers, obtains their votes and then plays crooked, the workers can see through it. That man ceases to have the confidence of the men he has be- trayed. Bribery of the few simply causes those few to lose their influence with the workers. Bribery of the many is too costly, unless on such a small scale that the workers laugh in scorn.. The enlightened selfishness of the toil- ing many is causing them to smile irr contempt at the appeals to selfishness made by the masters Ofi'ering small doles. The masters know that the day‘ their efi'acement is near.â€"â€"Cotton’s. 0-. The Clo-operative Commowealtlflis: coming fast. It is best for all. Help us to speed its arrival.
