llmlrr use VP? sterile. A New Wrinkle. (By Upton Sinclair, Princeton, N. J ) My Friend and Follow Citizen : Here is a brand new wrinkle. Here is something you never heard of before. Here is a newspaper article written by a man who was not paid to write it, and sent to you by a man who has paid the postage out of his own pocket for your benefit. And yet it is neither a green-goods circular, nor a patent medicine adver- tisement, nor a United States Labor Bureau report. It is a new wrinkle. The man who did this, you say, must have had something to gain by it; the writer of it must have had some object. What does he want? He will tell you. He has an opportunity of obtaining a government position, guaranteed him during his good behavior, and paying him a salary of twenty-five hundred dol- lars a year for six or eight hours’ work a day. Quite a desirable position, as most men would think. ‘ _ And yet that is only a small part of the advantage of lit. It is a position in a land where there exists neither pover ty nor luxury, neither millionaires, beg-_ gars, tramps nor unemployed ; where‘ there.- is practically no vice, no crime and very little drunkenness; and where there in no standing armies, no Davies, and no war. Do you blame him for hustling for such a job? He can get it only on one conditionâ€" a condition that at first may seem pecuâ€" liar. He can get it provided he can in- duce a majority of his fellow-citizens to accept an exactly similar one. He can get it, provided he. can succeed. by using such talent for writing as God has given him, in opening the eyes of his fellow-citizens to the fact that, in order for every sober, honest and industrious man in the country to have’such a life to think of your Fall and Winter FOOTWEAR.

They will accomplish this by a revolution at" the polls; they will overthrow the present industrial despot- ism and they will set up- in its steadâ€"- the Industrial Republic. Have you never thought of such a thing as an Industrial Republic ? An arrangement for operating the productâ€" i‘ve machinery of society in the seats way that our political machinery is ‘op‘ erated; in which the railroads, the fac- tories and the mines are the property ol' the whole community, to be used by all upon equal terms, and to be m'luagetl by eificers elected by vote?

Do you think that you can tell me any reason why a man has a right to be represented when he pays his taxex, and no right to he rep- resented where he gets his daily bread, but does not pay taxes?

And while you are reading, remember that he has only a little space, and that he is trying to ~ put as much as he can into it; So think about it, as you go; and when you get through with it, think about it some more; and keep right on thinking about it afterthat, and do n’t ever let anybo- dy persuade you to stop thinking. You have heard of‘ Socialism, of course. You have been taught that So cialism means anarchy and insurrec- tion ;, that Socialists desire to destroy the church and the homeâ€"and so on. When you have read this you will understand that Socialism has nothing to do with anarchy or insurrection, that it has nothing to do with any man’s re- ligion, and has no. designs upon any man’s home, save toiree it from its misery and squalor. Also, you will un- derstand why some people tell lies about the Socialists. ‘ i 'There was a time in history when all the people in the world were governed by lords and bumps who compelled them to fight for, themandwcrk for .thcm;who taxed them and shut them 'up in dungeons at their pleasure. These lords and barons Fought with each oth- er, and the big’ ones get the best of the little ones. and then the people were governed by kings and emperors. A hundred and thirty years ago, for instance, the American nation belonged to an uoamiable old gentleman who liv- ed in England; he considered Ameri- cans his “ subjects," and he taxed them just. as he chose, and compelled them to go to war for his amusement. Then one day they rest: up against this old gentleman and said they were no longer his “.‘sllilj"c'.\',” and would no longer pro; him tax-s, but would govern them- svlves and be free. Thtlt great event was the American Revolution. and the result of it was the American republic Now, the Socialist claims that if you look around you at the prescntdav world and study it carefully, you. will find a similar process going on and a similar revolution preparingâ€"only in ann'hel' field It is no longer a ques- upan any terms save those that the barons of, the SteelTrust are Willing to give him? . i» V , Do you not see that a man who Clllb determine the price you getfor your la- b'or or your produce, and the prices you pay for your purchases, is just as much your masterâ€"thezowncr of your proper- ty, your time and’your toilâ€"as one wlw can. come directly and [are you part of your income. All over the world men have come to see this, and‘all over the world they are organizing For the mighty change. it is a battle of ideas, a battle to open men’s eyes to'thc truth; it is known as the Socialist movement. The Socialist party is to-day the greatest political party the world has ever seen. It. is organized in every eiv. ilizud land, and it numbers thirty mil- lions of adherents, and casts eight mil- lion of votes. In Germany its vote has risen from 30.000 in 1807 to 487,000 in 1877, to 763.000 in_1887, to 1.787;- 000 in 1893, to 3,008,000 in 1903. Li'- Austria it has risen from 90,000 in 1895 to 1,000.000 .i\n__1900; and in Bel- giumr'it. has riseni‘i‘n'in 334000 in 189-2 to 534000;" in} 1898. la France in names tnetnbo'rscl' the cabinet, and in italy and Australia it holds the balance of“ power-and turns out ministries. In Japan it has started itsfirst newspaper, and in the Argentine Republic it has elected‘its first deputy. In the United States it made its first nominations in 1888, and it cast 2,000 votes. In 1892 it cast 21000 votes. in 1900 it. cost 126,000, and in 1902 it cast 285,000 votes. In 1904 it will cast between six and eight hundred thousand votes; in. 1908 it will cast three or four million votes, and then Socialism will be the only living political issue in America. 0â€"-0 Have you ever noticed that in all railroad wrecks the passengers in the Pollmans are very seldom hurt. Why ‘r‘ Because the Pullmans are solidly and sub~tantially built, and resist a Collision that smashes a common day conch into kindling wood. And why is this?
