DENY THAT WARDER AND POST WILL AMALGAMATE DIRECTORS OF WARDER COMPANY SAY THEY HAVE HEARD NOTH- ING OF THE MATTERâ€"NO OPTIONS GIVEN TO EMPLOY- ‘ EE ES.

Some measure at plausibility was given the rumor on account oi the ac- tion of The Warder in matters politi- cal during the recent campaign.

Examining these planks one by one, the News remarks that no one has yet been bold enough to tell us how the land is to be secured. whether by simple expropriation or by national purchase. There is like- ly to be difference of opinion on this point, but if the land is to be bought by the people for the people, no one will be very much alarmed. Indeed, the real estate agents may rejoice; but as the Sociailsts argue that no one in particular has a right to any land. we may assume that the right to exchange it for the people's money in the day of Socialism will not be re- cognized. Socialists justify the doc- trine of dispossession by tracing the title of any given piece of land. We will find, going backward, a century or so of regular purchase at market value,a few deals wherein vast es- tates were traded for groceries, rum, and, earlier still, for beads. Then, some time or other, we come to the strong arm. to the man who owned the land because he was a strong enough warrior to evict an earlier oc cupant. There is not a foot of real es- move the machine until it is put in proper order. as great dnmege is sure to result otherwise. Machines ere not no dlflcult to understand es lo gener- ally believed.

Therefore, the Socialists ar- gue that since every modern title rests upon force in the first instance, there can be no logical objection to a readjustment by the same means, especially as everyone is to benefit thereby. Government Ownership of All. The second proposition is justified in much the same way. Being inter- preted, it means Government owner- ship of everything, a steady job at good wages for everyone. Therefore, it is a very attractive plank, especially to the hundreds of thousands of American wage-earners who can never tell a week ahead how long they will be provided with work. The Socialists promise that they will give everybody the privilege of working. and that everybody shall receive all the profits of his labor. The people will be' both owners and employee.
