WORK OF ROBT. OWEN Tormar Xader of SoclalUrtlo BaHls mant XJvsd Ahead of Hla Tim. New Harmony, Ind., Juno 6. United States senators, governors and other men of national prominence are to gather in this little town on the Wa bash during the week beginning to morrow to take part in a celebration of the centennial anniversary of the founding of New Harmony, which was tbe C rut 'notable attempt In America to establish a community based on the theories of Socialism and cooperation. .The. attempt was a failure, though some of the principles of the founders . have been carried out by the members of the community down to the pres ent day. The community was founded orig inally by the Harmonists, a sect which originated in Wurtemberg about 1780. The founders were George and Fred erick Rapp. The members of the sect held their property in common and considered marriage a civil contract. In 1805 the Rapps and a number of their followers emigrated to America," and settled first in- Butler county, Pennsylvania. In 1814 they moved to this section, where they purchased 27',- 000 acres of land and founded a com munity, which they called Harmony. Ten years later they sold their land to Robert Owen, and, returning to Pennsylvania, settled at Economy, a few miles north of Pittsburg. Owen Xdved Too Soon. The-New Harmony movement, which attracted world-wide attention, dates f rom the time that Robert Owen ac quired control of the community and sought to put into practice his theor ies of Ktfclalism. Owen, a native of North Wales, was one of those unfor tunate men who lived in advance of his time. His entire life was devoted to various plans for the benefit of his fellow men, and yet he is remem bered as having been a failure. He Is known as the founder of Eng lish Socialism. His views were the re sult of his own practical and success ful employment of men in large fac tories, during which he came to real ise the desirability of better relations between capital and labor. Owen was , but 19 years old when he became man ager of a cotton mill employing 600 operatives. Under his direction the mill became noted for the excellence of Its work. The first American cotton ever sent to England was used by him. Mr, Owen married and settled in New Lanark, Scotland. Here he be came the possessor of one of the larg est cotton mills In the country and began to work out his theories 'in re- i gard to labor. He viewed with dismay ! the social conditions among his peo- ' pie and began to plan reforms. He j built better homes for them, Induced j them to become cleanly and to spend l their money to advantage. He estab- llshed a store where they could buy the best goods at the lowest possible price, and he-atrongly urged a self-re-f specttng spirit among them. j New Lanark became one of the no- j table places for statesmen and re- , formers to visit, and among the nota- I . ble persons who went to see Owen's J work was the future Emperor Nlch-; olas of Russia. When Owen began to I propose plans for the establishment of 1 cooperative colonies, the Duke of Kent, father of Queen Victoria, was one of j those who became deeply Interested in ! his projects. Colony Xa Failure. To carry his plans into effect Owen I himself came over to America: In ! 1824 he purchased the town oflHar-' mony from the' Rappltes and here he ; established the first non-religious community in the New World. On January 12, 1826, a constitution known , as ''The New Harmony Community of ' Equality' was adopted. On July 4 of: the same year Owen delivered his am- j ous Declaration of Mental "Independ-j ence against the trinity of man's op-, pressors" "Private Property, irrational j Religion, and Marriage." j But the men and women attracted to ! New Harmony were enthusiasts like Owen hlmsejf, persons with entirely impractical Ideas and advantages of every sort. After several years of , hard work Mr. Owen abandoned alL ltope of success here. He returned to j Tjondnn and enent the remainder of his ' life in writing and working for Social-' "" Ira and cooperation. He brought about shorter hours for factory work-: ers and served to uplift the working classes by his constant and generous labor. I Despite the failure of his first plans , the community of New Harmony still ' exists as a monument to Mr. Owen's; philanthropy. . Though many of the Socialistic theories on religion and other subjects have been abandoned by the members of the community, the. nrlnclalea of cooperation have been . carried out successfully. During the ! century of ita existence New Harmony has been the home at one time or an other of many men and women whp have become widely known for their efforts to better the condition of hu manity.
