C. PEERY DRUGGIST - Scio Oregon Because Socialists talk of the evils of th* system and say that there can be no « nd of the robbery of the worker until both the republican and democratic parties are overthrown and th« '•<«• al- ivt party comes to power, it must not be supposed it is meant that So«iaHita arc naturally any hotter or more honest in desire than arc republicans or demo crats. They mean only that the capi talist system, sustained by both repub lican* and democrats, is inherently Immoral and dishonest, and right can not prevail until it isdostroyed. Many, ■ ::.*-(. .*f th.- tdual r.-i cm» and democrat*, are honest in their support of the system and are conven tionally good men. They simply <io not sec the robbery that prevails, and sup port wrong, not because they are per- ver—, but only because they are ignor ant of the wrong. They may be well educated and well iMwtc.l along other lit» ■*, but they are blind to the cause of Some day they will see, and then the native honesty they possess and their sir« < re desire to do right will bring them to a hearty support of -ociahsm. o <• In every city the public ia complain- ■ < about ths extortion of th* express rates. ILindreda of thousands have b-e n exp« njed by the public and g< v- rmnwtil in the past Investigating and awing about tbe express extortions. And the same game Ls being aup|»>rtsd by the votes of the men who complain, they not having the sense or something to see that if the public uwn*d and operated the express business that there would be rapid decrease in express rate* as there has been in puatagc rates, be es ise every congressman and senator w “id tie with each other In giving better and cheaper service tu the peo ple from whom they get their election, it seem* that voter* are very foolish to keep on permitting men in offlee who cplKS’- the collective ownership of traiupurtiun, while at the same time that same public is ever in hot water because of the extortion and bribery and crime by the men who privately own th" express business. Most peo ple cannot make comparison*. They have i.wef l>een taught to reason at all. S-s-i»! *t* know what to do and howr to do it, but there are not encuith of them yet to make the change. You can hardly find u man these day* wh«> will not say that he believes in many things that the Socialist advo cates. Hut so many stop short of the one essential thing that is the over throw of exploitation. Sociologists are coming more and more to recognise the truth of the Socialist philoaophy-but philosophy is not enough. We must come to the point of stopping the rob- le-ry W ords are good as means of conveying ideas, but word* will not fill an empty belly. Unless we come to action. unless Socialism la transformed from the realm of philosophy into an actuality, into a living, breathing con dition, it is nothing. Scientists are be ginning to recognise the tremendous evolutionary force which is bearing us to Socialism But if we depend on forces alone and not on ourselves we shall I m - centuries in reaching what might be obtained in a few years. ♦ C.
