Edit; THE JEWELLER, 1 Lindsay, For particulars. You will save ‘9' money. You can rely on what you get. "than; treatise... Here is a picture of “ Civilization " at the opening of the twentieth century, in the “most enlightened nation on earth." This is an effect of private capitalism, that cares only for people as it can use them for profit. It is not chargeable to Socialism, l'or Socialism does not prevail; it is not chargeable to feudalism, Mohamuiedanism, idolatry. chattel slavery, monarchyâ€"it is simply plain capitalimi, which has its base in the private ownership of land, machin- cry and exchange. It is not Socialist evidence, it is from a Republican paper , that iguorantly upholds a social system that causes it to hold up its hands in holy horror at the cli'octs of its own the- ory. It is a picture that should cause every sensible person to stop and think what it all means. You cannot blame ‘ any person in Springfield, nor yet all the people. The fault lies deeper. It affects the whole social organism of so- cicty. It is useless to denounce the richâ€"~thcy are doing on a great scale what the poor are trying to do on a small scale. They do not see the causes and cannot, of course, know the remedy. Here is the article entire, from the Springfield, Mo., Republican of Febru- ary 11th: “ In a tent near the pump spring, on Washington avenue, four blocks north of the subway, lives William Finley, 2t man of 60 years, and his family. The family consists of his wife, two daugh- ters, one fifteen and one seventeen years old, and a boy of fourteen years. Within the tent there is no stove, no bed, no fuel, and the only accessory to living is a large, bundle of rags, which serve as bed, clothes and a means of keeping warm. - When the mother of the family is able to work she makes chip baskets, which are sold for a very small sum, and it is not often that the aged woman is able to work, for she is a confirmed invalid. The father is unable to work at any kind of labor, and the little girls have taken upon themselves the burden of supporting the family. They have chosen no delicate manner of gaining sustenance, but have taken up a trade that many a robust man shuns and is willing to steal before he is willing to gain an honest living by means of it. They went to a store on Commercial street and bought a wood saw, paying fifty cents cash and promising to pay the additional twenty-five cents on a certain day. True to their contract they returned at the appointed time and paid the balance due. They had earn- ed the money by sawing wood. With their saw the two thin, frail, emaciated girls and little brother, who is a sad picture of neglect and destitu- tion, the other morning went forth in search of work. They were not very formidable in appearance, and it was hard for them to get work. They Wan- dered to the south side and finally were given work at a mill and toiled uncens- ingly till evening, when as a reward for their almost superhuman efl’orts they were presented with a small sack of atllil‘d grade floor, which they carried by turns to their sick and hungry parents, at the tent which they called home. Yesterday a neighbor wentâ€" to the tent and drew back the curtain. The sight which met his gaze was one that can never be erased from his memory. The children were sitting on the ground picking meat from a cow’s head which ter house, and were eating it raw.” None of you, no matter what your politics or religion, want such condi- tions. Under Socialism all children would be put in school. All old people, or sick, or incapacitated, would be pen- smiled, as we pension the judges, army officers, or wives of presidents. There could be no such incidents occur as the one above related. If the people under- stood the Socialist position, practically everybody would favor it. But they don’t, and are prejudiced against it by others who don’t know what it means, and the system we sufi'er under contin- ues, and tender girls are forced to saw ' wood and receive musty flour in return, while they have to gnaw raw offal from slaughter houses to keep them l'rOtn starving. And the car of Mammon, the worship of Mammon, goes on. What a pity. Your father or mother or daugh- ters may meet the same fate. Who can tell ? Would it not be the part of wis- dom and goodness to change the indus- trial system so that such things could not be ? ' Ainsley’s Magazine for February has a list of the diamonds of thirty-four New York women, whose value is stated to be $22 250,000. Is an industrial system that gives some sisters such things and-forces others to gnaw raw offal. just? Do you not see that some have more than is good for them, and others less? And it" the system is wrong. if it is possible to make ever so little improvement in it, is not such ef- fort commendable? If you have no remedy. you should not condemn those who feel that they have. If you have a remedy, then never keep still until you have got it adopted, until such worse than heathcnism is abolishch Reader, do n’t you feel that you can do a little to call attention to such wrongs, and thus help to stir the people to tie- tion ? Please do.â€"Appcul to Reason. . ~â€"o.+. The Church and the Socialist. â€"._... The Church wants to make the peo- pic good; so does the Socialist. The Church corrals a man one day in the week, tells him what a fine thing it is to be good, and then sends him‘ back into the commercial world to let the forces of evil work on him during the other six days. He is told on Sunday to be good, and during the other six days every interest he has calls upon him to be badâ€"to cheat, to lie, to steal legally, and to grind the pennies from the widow and the fathcrlcss. This is like trying to pull a. man out of a well, under conditions where every time he is pulled up a loot he sinks back six. God ‘ works on him one day, and the devil uses him during the other six. This plan has not resulted satisfacto- rily, and the Socialist proposes another. The Socialist wants to change the con- ditions that influence the sinner during the six days. He promises to furnish a. system of society that will offer an in- duccment to men to be good instead of bad, honest instead of dishonest, just instead of unjust. The Socialist desires to furnish conditions that will place jus- tice and humanity at a premium, and all the forms of evil at. a discount. The Church tries to save a drowning man, but leaves him in the water all the time. The Socialist will pull the drown- ing man out: of the water and get him on dry land, and will then rely on him to lead a righteous lifeâ€"Exchange. 0-. The Advantages of War. The other day a party of Boers swept down on a convoy of empty wagons and captured the whole outfit. According to a familiar argument the people of Woodstock ought to rejoice at the result of' the exploit. The argument was like this : The more wagons the Boers cap- ture, the more wagons the British will' require to buy; and the more wagons the British require, the greater the de- mand there will be on the Canadian manufacturers. As the Woodstock wagâ€" ons rank among the very best, they Will be called upon to do their part in meet- ing the demand; therefore, the more wagons the Boers capture, the better it; will be for the Woodstock manufactur- 01‘s, and for the people of Woodstock who earn their living making wagons. If that be not a good argument, what is wrong with it? It is the kind of argu- ment that is frequently used in showing; the advantages of war.â€"â€"-ll’ood.ttock Standard. o~.--_~__ Thirty thousand E uglish wnnel spend thetr lives driving and starring canal boats.
