W. w.' " (By John Spargo.) John Spargo, breaker boy in British coal mines, teacher, university professor, lecturer on economics, socialist_spea.ker and propagandist and finally, loyal American and antl—paclflst enough to be thrown bodily out of the socialist party in America —along with Charles Edward Russell, J. G. Phelps-Stokes and others—makes a bitter indictment of bolshevism and traces its origin to the I. W. W., of this county in an extended article in the September number of McClure’s magazine. He states: “Nikalai Lenine, the red premier of Russia, told a friend of mine not long ago that he had derived his chief inspiration from, and that the bolshevist soviet government was based upon, the ideas of our American product, the J W. W. It was here in the United States that, as far back as 1905, a movement of wage-earners arose having for its object the substitution of what is now soviet government for political government by parliamentary methods. i “The epitaph of bolshevism was composed long ago, when " it was written of the ancient Gauls that ‘They shook all states and founded none.’ The bolsheviki have neither founded new states nor made any other addition to the constructive powers of mankind. Not a single institution or principle of enduring value can be discerned in the whole mass of bolshevist propa- ganda, intrigue and experimentation. Itisa negative, destruc- tive, disintegrating force. It has shaken many states, some times, as in Russia, almost wholly destroying the entire struc- ture of organized society and extinguishing the light of civilization, “In those nations in which government has been less brut- ally tryannical than Russia knew under the Prussian-led Rom- anoffs, and in which the people have been accustomed to the .self-discipline of a vastly greater degree of freedom and po- litical responsibility. Bolshevism has been less influential for evil. It has been thwarted by the superior strength which gov- - ernments based on widely diffused privileges and powers always enjoy. “And yet this is the kind of government or lack of govern- ment that many disguided groups of organized labor have . allowed themselves to be led-into seeming to support and favor. “Most of ‘the men and women who cheer bolshevist pro- paganda at the meetings here are of alien birth. Many of them were unnaturalized and all of them were as yet unassimu- lated into our national life. - Inmost cases they came to America full of faith in democracy, expecting far-too much from it, and their faith has been destroyed, and replaced by grim despair. America has taken them into its industrial life but has failed to win their affectionate trust. “The basis for.a profoundly great patriotism is therefore lacking. The seriousness of this failure lies in the fact that, alone among the great nations of the modern world, we have come to depend upon an alien proletariat. ‘Eighty per cent of those who work in our plant are foreign born.” I was told by a manufacturer in Bridgeport, Conn., and 46 languages are spoken by them. They neither comprehend America nor love it.""” e O, Our friends the French are preparing to turn the horrors of war to financial account. The French government is ar- ranging an elaborate system for touring the battle fronts, and soon the American of means will be invited to step up and satisfy his curiosity and disgorge his wad.

This production was completed on the Pacific coast only a few weeks ago, after having been in the process of production for many months. It is from the book by the same title written by Major Rupert Hughes.

LAMPSON GIVES TALK. A special feature of the chapel ex- ercises at normal school Thursday morning was an interesting talk by Vernon Lampson on his experiences in the navy. He particularly de- scribed the method of mine sweeping and the dangers accompanying such work and related how the ship on which Warren Edwards, a Bemidji boy, was serving, was blown up by one of these mines. Edwards floated five hours clinging to a broken spar before he was picked up. He is now in a hospital in Scotland. Mr. Lampson also told of a sub- marine attack which he had wit- nessed. Language That Will Live. Language is the vehicle of thought; and the tongue which can most quick- 1y and clearly put that thought across between buyer and seller, between thinker and inquirer, is the language that will prevail. Languages are alive because they have kept up with the march of thought and events: and those that have not are dead. Subseribe BUSINESS AND PROFESSIONAL DOCTORS e — ior The DLuiy Piloneer DRS.
