It is not a disgrace to have
been in prison. The bird of
freedom has always been a jail
bird. In all great crises the
place to look for the redeemer
of the race is not in the palaces
of religion or the palaces of
justice, but in the prison cells
or on the road thereto. Moses
had to flee from the Egyptians.
Socrates died in a cell. Christ
was made a convict because he
was a friend of the people, and
was crucified as the first
preacher of democracy. Wash-
ington and Jefferson had so
much contempt of court that
they would have been hanged
if they could have been caught.
In the history of progress ty-
ranny has always been the turn-
key, liberty always the con-
vict.—Henry D. Lloyd.

WHAT'S SO AND WHAT ISN'T
Copyrighted by JOHN M. WORK
FORWARD!
I am bold enough to believe that any honest investigator
will agree with me that capitalism is a mere temporary make-
shift, and that Socialism is to be its natural, necessary and in-
evitable successor. .
If I am correct in this diagnosis of the state of your mind
I have only cne more very important word to say to you by
way of conclusion. :
Read the fundamental Socialist works and take an active
part in the Socialist party organization. i
It is of supreme importance that every Socialist should be
thoroughly grounded in the fundamental principle of Socialism.
Jt is likewise of supreme importance that every Socialist
should co-operate with every other Socialist by aggressive ac-
tivity in the Socialist party organization. 3
The Socialist party started upon its career with a full
knowledge of its high mission. The time has come In the his-
tory of the world for conscious evolution. We Socialists know
full well that the economic laws compel the abolition of capi-
talism and the introduction of Socialism. And we deliberately
organized the Socialist party in order to make the transition
from capitalism to Socialism as smooth and easy and rapid as
possible.
In order to do this successfully it is necessary for us to re-
move economic bewilderment from the minds of the people
and put the clear, simple truth in its place. It is necessary for
us to send speakers to every corner of the land. It is necessary
for us to put Socialist literature in the hand of every adult in
| America. And it is necessary to keep on doing this until the
object is accomplished.
To do this requires an aggressive and systematic organiza-
ticn, ramifying into every locality in the country. d
“The importance of systematic and effective organization
can not be over estimated. :
Organization is the key to success.
Remember that.
Turn it over and over in your mind.
Let it filter into your blood. hog
The capitalist class has no fear of a million unorganized
Socialists.
It is the organized Socialist party, with its batteries that
never sleep, that gives them the cold shivers. The calm confi-
dence of the organized Socialist party is the most terrific fact
that capitalists ever encountered.
The Socialist party is a rank and file party. Every act of
every officer is subject to referendum vote of the membership.
Every officer is also subject to recall by vote of the member-
ship. ; :
The Socialist party never slumbers, never sleeps. It car-
ries on an incessant agitation between campaigns as well as
during campaigns.
It intends that Socialism shall be speedily realized.
Anyone at all acquainted with the industrial situation, and
with the temper of the magnificent army of Socialists will look
upon this as a positive certainty. ¥ \
In the Socialist the zeal of the crusader is combined with
political common sense—a combination which must win.
The Socialist is not a quitter. ; ;
He is here to stay. 3
The future is his.
He is the man of destiny.
He is practical.
He is the only man who has interpreted the spirit of the
age.
He is the only men who has read the signs of the times.
He is the only man who has discovered the shadows which
coming events are casting before them.
He proclaims the truth.
He is, therefore, invulnerable.
He draws his shining lance and challenges every other
school of economic thought in the world to meet him in the
arena of debate.
And they slink away like whipped curs, conscious that
they are in the wrong.
Socialism is the next step in the evolution of humanity.
_ The world is being urged toward it with winged speed by
the action of irresistible economic laws. :
The fingers of all past ages point forward to it.
In a world of trouble, sorrow, poverty, ignorance and an-
guish, Socialism is the only hope. :
Without it, all is gloom, the times are out of joint, and
the world has gone crazy.
With it, the world is sane, and the future is bright with
better things.
