As lo the Inbor auestion, thelr kden was that all the industries of the country should become the propetty of the public, and condueted on a collective cofiperative system, under the eon- trol of the Government, which should also control the raitronds amd telegraphs, How- ever, he would not Interfero with private property when not i the shape of an indus- try, 'The postal and telegraph syslems con- trofled by the Govermment In Germany were the most perfeet hi tho world, nnd that showed what a Government could do, Were the present form of govérnment i Germany a democeratie one, the Socialists would not offer any opposition to the tobaceo monopoly by the Government scheme, but they do oppose It now beeause thoy do not want to strengthen AN ANSOLUTE MONARCHY.
