You can rely on what A Gigantic Robbery. .â€" Last Week the Appeal published a statement from the Chicago Record- Herald that the farmers of Nebraska had lost $74,000,000 in the last year by the reduction in the price of cattle by the packing house trust. Do you comprehend what that means ? Think about it just a minute. The population of Nebraska in 1900 was a little over one million. This rake-ofi' by the pack- ing trust means $74 to each man, worn- an and child in the state, or $375 to each family! Now, suppose that the legislature of that state had levied a tax of $75 on each family above what was levied, payable to the county treasurer. what would have been the result? It would have caused the hanging of the members of the legislature as surely as they had voted such taxâ€"no matter what for. That sum of' money would have built and equipped the total rail- road milcngc of the stateâ€"6,684 miles. And what have the citizens of Nebraska to show for all this vast sum taken from them in one year? Nothing but a few richer millionaires with the power of kings to levy taxes, without the victims having any voice in the matter. In what are the people of Nebraska any better off than if a foreign military pow- er had swooped down on them and made them pony up that vast sum? Are they dogs to submit to such extor- tion, and yet vote for the democrats and republicans who manipulate the laws, and for the benefit of the corpora. tions? Can they not see that they are being skinned? Now multiply this vast robbery by the similarly large sums 103: to the farmers of Kansas, Missouri, Illi» nois, and all other states where cattle are produced, and the mind is staggered by the immensity of the figures, which will reach more than a billion dollars. Think of the trusts robbing the farur ers of more than a billion dollars on cat- tle! What a horrible extortion! The farmers are helplessly in the hands of those who own the railroads, packing plants, stock yards and other machinery for finishing the products ready for the consumer. One day recently in Kansas City the price of hogs went down $1 per 100 pounds, and the price of meat advanced $1.50. And yet the farmers are so stupid that they cannot see the relation between their votes and the price of their products. Under Socialism the workers in every field of industry will roccive the equiv- alent of what their labor produces, and no profit will be made by any citizen oil’ the labor or products of any other citizen. But such conditions as would give the people of Nebraska hundreds of millions annually more than they now me ive would ruin them and turn them back to savagely ! lâ€"Appcal to Reason. .4». The Curse of Profit. The curse of our profit system is on the land, withering the souls and des- ‘tt'oving the bodies of the people. The desire to make big profits is what causes all the adultcrations of our foods. and makes people invest their money in the “ get rich quick schemes ” which promim to pay fifty or sixty pct-i cent. on money entrusted to their care. It is for profit that children offender years are obliged to Work in cotton mills twelve or forteen hours per day. It is to make profit for soulless em~ ploych that women toil all day making shirts at twelve cents per dozen. It is to make more profit than can be made by selling pure goods, that causes men to sell adulterated food and liquor. It. is for profit that whisky and beer are poisoned and adulterated. It is for profit that our children’s stomachs are poiSOned by candy made of glucose and terra abla. Our coffee and tea are mixed with chickory and marsh hay,:so that more profit can be made by the jobber. It is for profit that our butter is made of lard and cotton seed oil, colored with poisonous chemicals, and our ma- ple syrup of corn-cob juice and glucose. It is for profit that; we wreck rail- roads, and form combinations to monop- olize the necessities of life. . It is because of this curse of profit that one man looks with delight upon the downfall of his brother, and causes him 'to do every low and disgraceful thing. Let us make haste and change the accurscd system that. fills the land with hoboes, paupers and millionaires-â€" . that causes thirty thousand suicides and murders a yearâ€"that creates family discards and quarrels over property, and fills the land with strikes, lockouts, mis- ery. injustice and unhappiness.â€"- W. J. Gould. 5-. In Love With It. Say, I am dead in love with the com- petitive system! It is the smoothest proposition that ever escaped the luna- tic asylum. It is a great ” developer." It develops the thieving instinct. It; is the best tool the devil could conjure up to fill his empire. I am led to these conclusions by the daily press reports. Fifty retail grocers have been” caught in the net at Chicago. These grocers induced the drivers for the wholesale houses to steal boxes and packages of goods when they loaded their \vaggnns, and then divided the loot with the dri- vers. What did they do it for? Why. for pro/it, of course. If there had been no profit, no crime would have been committed. The profit system is the fathcrof all crime. When Socialism shall have been instituted the goods will be produced for the public, delivered to the public by the public; and there will be no profit in any such transaction, for goods will not be handled for profit. The retailers will be simply public ofii- cials, and will have no interest in the matter further than serving the public. The purchasers will cancel the price of the goods with their evidence of labor. which will not benefit the dealer if he take mom or less than the priceâ€"it would leave nothing in his hands of usable shape. But darn Socialism. any- how. There would be no incentive to steal or rob or he or murder in the whole gameâ€"and what would be the use ofa. system in which the incentive to such action would be lacking? We would all drift hack into snvagcry! And people are considered sane wh.: believe in the private ownership of in- dustry.-â€"â€"ll"uylantl. o * .â€"â€"~â€"-â€"-___ An Object Lesson. While at Fort Worth, Texas. the other day, I visited the new picking; houses of the Armours and Swiftsâ€"- both built together like twinsâ€"but kept separate, to make their dupes believe that there is competition in buyin,r stock. I meta ranchman who lived in wesrern Texas, and, during a conversa- tion concerning industrial conditions, he said that he did not know why thn price of cattle had failen so during the last year; but it had, and was rapidly ruining the cattle men. [-10, owned Sev- eral thousand acres of land, belt]: in: the cattle business. Last year he was oil'ered $20 an acre for his place; but sales nearby now showed that he could scarcely hope to get $12 an acre, as the. cattle business would not justify tlm price. Such object lessons are rapidly making people Socialists. It the pmp- crty, or the value of it, is to be cvmliv enter], it will not take long for the peo- plc to decide that it will be better for the whole people to confi<cate for the common good than for a few to Conllv cote the property of all for the h-melit of a featâ€"112M. â€"-â€"â€"â€"â€"~ â€"â€"â€"o 4» oâ€"â€"-â€"-â€"r‘....._.
