TWENTY-FIFT- H Does Your Lawn Mower Need Sharpening? 1 1 1 1 1 II I II 1 II I H FOR 1 1 1 IIW BEGINNERS. a W I t f HOW WS GOT WHERE WE ARE NOW. There was a time when all were poor. In the childhood of tho bumst rase, when the bounty of nature was till an unsolved mystery, when the head and brain of man had devised liule beyond the sharpened stick and polished stone as means with which to work, even the meet strenuous toil on the part of every member of society was all too little to supply the necessities of Ufa , Under such a condition there could be no slave nor master, no leisured class of say kind. If n man could not produce more than was required to maintain his own existence, no one would want to own him as a slave or an employe, set of time rolled away while the race was la this condition. All were workers, all ware free from human restraint, nil were slavee to nature But little by Utile the atones were being better shaped, they were fitted with handles; copper and bronze were beaten or cant Into still more effective tools; n fsw plants end animals were domesticated, end It became possible for n men to produnce something more than sufficed to keep him eUve and enable him to cdhtlnue at work. Two things then became possible-leis-ure and slavery. Leisure for the few and slavary for the many. At first the slave was owned directly by the master. He was driven to his task by the last After he had produced enough to keep him alive hs was then driven to work on until he had produced enough to kelp maintain hie master. It etlU took the labor of many slaves to produce enough to give a Ufa of leisure end luxury to a single master. The race moved ou souther step. More and better plants and animals were domesticated. The tools with which mea worked were made mors pe refect end more productive. Most Important of all, the land was all made private property. Then those who owned the land were able to say to the landless one We are now going to aboUeh slavery. From now on all will ha frea But the land wlU remain the private prop, the nobles and tbs rrty of the kings, clergy, end U you workers went to till it or 11 vs on It you can agree to give so many day each week to the owner of the lend." Bo slavery became serfdom, and the race moved up another notch, . The worker still received a bare pittance tad worked long houra. He pro dived hie own living three or four days in the week, end tolled to provide leisure end luxury for the landlord during the other days. He wee attached to the soil and was bought sad sold with the land, and would not be separated from the land, or eecape , from It If be wished. If he did not do the work of the master he could be imprisoned, beai. en, or hilled. The first crude machines came In. The tools had now grown no perfect that n man could produce very much more than was needed to maintain his own exlstenea But he could not produce without he could use these machines, because goods were now produced to eqll, end only he who could produce In the cheapest manner could produce nt all. Consequently It was possible for n ruling dess to say, Selfdom ia now forever abolished. Man shall no longer be attached to the soil. He shell he' wholly free to go end come ns he pleases. But all these new tools shall be private property, and those who do not own them shall have the opportunity to sell their labor power to which Urey are themselves attached, day by of the tools day to the owners Those who were unfortunate enough to be born Into tho world dispossessed of any ownership In the tools with which wealth Is produced were forced to sell themselves to the more fortua In renate owners as turn for this they received enough to went to keep (hem alive and the rest for the provide leisure and luxury owners or machines, the mills, and the mines. The worker wee no Ipnger attached to the master, or to the land, but to the Job. Even this he held only nt the pleasure of the woner of the Job the capitalist employer. But with the marvelously Improved tools of modem times the worker can p redoes so many, many more times than the old chattel slave or serf could produos with the crude tools of hie time that the master class of today cannot consume ell that' their wagoalavea produce. A few houra, or in some cases even minutes, of work produces more today than daya and weeks prodcued In the time of bronze and stone. Man la no longer n slaves to nature. He has conquered her. He baa now so perfected his slaves, the machines, that 11 might have leisure and luxury. So perfect are the tools that not s are needed to all of the produce all that the masters can use. These unused workers ere forced Into the greet army of unemployed, a thing unknown In other ages, that stands ready to take the jobs of those wbo are at work should they dare to demand more than a bare subsistence. This Is the path along which we have traveled to our- present condition. It also shows why It is that today the workers are the poor, while luxury and leisure go to the Idle owning wage-worksr- wage-slave- Ideal Lews Mower Sharpen era that wo would Uko to have 7 on mnlie before yon hero year Mower sharpened again.

Civilisation is a disease, produced by the practice of building societies with rotten material. Those who advance modern civilisation usually Identify It with the steam engine nad electric telegraph. Those who understand the steam engine and electric telegraph spend their 'lives ia trying to replace them with something better. The Imagination cannot conceive a viler criminal than he who should build another London like the present one. nor n benefactor than he who greater would destroy It. 8htw.

It contains an article from a well known Japanese Socialist, a Kllchi Kanekn. and. among other things, the writer says: Bo far aa I know, not g single Socialist paper in this country spoke out plainly on this Japanese question (exclusion of the Japanese) without showing race prejudice. I am not a hit surprised to see that the capitalist press had spread the moat sensational and false news about Japanese all over the land, for they are captured by tbe capitalist class Interest the Interest of dollars.

Tho Socialists who are afraid of losing the sympathy of trade nnkwa, and afraid to preach socialism, pure and genuine, oould not be revolutionary Socialists at all. It U no wonder that the American Socialist movement, as shown by Its last vote cannot grow any tester." The truth of much that Kaneko ays is obvious; It Is slowly penetrating tho Socialist mind. There has beyond question been a growing disposition to disparage revolutionary Socialism, and aa Kaneko a aye, or at leant clearly intimates, a fear of losing the sympathy" of pure and simple trade unions. This, everybody knows, is true of tbe Social Democratic movement In Wisconsin, where concessions hare been mads to trade unionists to get their support. And In Chicago present conditions are prophetic of a coming disaster from the same cause. Industrial Unionists hold that thb workman horn In Japan Is equally eligible to mem be rah Ip in this organisation with the workman horn In or England. As n matter of factItaly Japanese workmen already hold cards la the I. W. W., and more are oomlng, They are welcome. Ia a little while, as events are happening, we will have strong local unions of the I. W. W. in the principal Industrial centers of Japan. Parllmentary bodies In this country, hacked by trade unionists who are not unionists, and Internationalists" who are nationalists only, may succeed in excluding the Japs, as a Joint resolution Introduced by a Social Democrat In the Wisconsin legislature memorialises congress to do, but it win he an act of the provincial and the narrow, a denial and repudiation of the very soul of International Socialism, the federation of the workers of the world for the overthrow of capitalism and the capitalist class wherever they are found.
