These always re- ed his favorite writers. At once much loved and feared by vs — loved because in mischief, and fear- f his readiness in writ- ing satirical verse and lampooning his enemies — Karl Marx passed through the usual school routine, and then proceeded to the univer- es of Bonn and Berlin, where, to please his father, he for a time stud- ied law, and, to please himself, he tudied history and philosophy. In 1842, he was about to take up a po-} sition at Bonn University as Privat- dozent (instructor), but the political movement which had begun in Ger-| many since the death of Frederick William III in 1840 attracted him into another career. The chiefs of the Rhenish liberals, Camphausen and Hansemann, had founded the “Rheinische Zeitung” at Cologne, with the co-operation of Marx, whose brilliant and bold criti- cism of the provincial Landtag cre- ated such a sensation, that, although only twenty-four years old, he was offered the chief editorship of the paper. He accepted it, and there- with began his long struggle with all despotisms, and with Prussian despotism in particular. ** * In the same year, 1843, Marx had married his old friend and playfel- low, to whom he had been engaged | for seven years, Jenny von West-/| and with his young wife | phalen, proceeded to Paris. Here, together| with Arnold Ruge, he published the “Deutsch-franzosische Jahrbucher, in which he began the long series of his socialist writings. His first con- tribution was a critique on Hegel’s philosophy of law; the second, an es- say on the Jewish problem. When the “Jahrbucher” ceased to appear, Marx contributed to the journal “Vorwaerts,” of which he is usually said to have been the editor. As a matter of fact,.the editorship | of this paper, to which Heine, Over-| beck, Engels, etc., contributed, seems to have been carried on in a some- what erratic manner, and a really responsible editor never Marx’s next publication was heilige Familie (The Holy Family), | written jointly with Engels, a satiri- cal critique directed against Bruno Bauer and his school of Hegelian} idealists. Ee aaay This same year, Marx founded a} German Working Man’s Club at Brussels, and, what is of more im- portance, joined, together with his political friends, t he Communist} League. The whole organization of the League was changed by him; from a hole-and-corner conspiracy it| was transformed into an organiza- tion for the propaganda of Commu- nist principles, and was only secret | because existing circumstances made | secrecy a necessity. Wherever Ger-) man Working Men’s Clubs existed | the League existed also, and it was the first socialist movement of an_ international character, English-| men, Belgians, Hungarians, Poles, and Scandinavians being members| —it was the first organization of the Social Democratic Party. In 1847, a congress of the League was held in London, at which Marx and Engels were present as dele- gates; and they were subsequently | to write the celebrated | appointed Manifesto of the Communist Party —first published just before the rev- TUDOR INN Restaurant 113 East 14th Street For good and wholesome food, don’t fail to visit us We serve special luncheon plates from 11:30-3 p. m.

OG In the meantime, Marx had con- tinued in the “Brusseler Zeitung” his attack on the Prussian govern- ment, and again the Prussian gov- ernment demanded his expulsion, but in vain; only the February rev- olution caused a movement among the Belgian workmen, when Marx, without any ado, was expelled b; the Belgian government. The provi: sional government of France, had,| however, through Flocon, invited him to return to Paris, and this invita- tion he uccepted. In Paris he remained some. time, till after the revolution of March, 1848, when he returned to Cologne and there founded the “Neue Rhein- ische Zeitung” — the only paper representing the working class, and daring to defend the June insurgents of Paris. eee oe Finally, after the May rising (1849) in Dresden, the Rhine Prov- inces, and South Germany, the “Rheinische” was forcibly suppress- ed. The last number -—- printed in red — appeared on May 19th, 1849. Marx now returned to Paris, but! a few weeks after the demonstration of June 18, 1849, the French gov- ernment gave him the choice of re- tiring to Brittany or leaving France. He preferred the latter, and went to London — where he continued to live for over thirty years. An at- tempt to bring out the “Neue Rhein- ische Zeitung” in the form of a re- view, published at Hamburg, was not successful. Immediately after Napoleon’s coup d’etat, Marx wrote his Acht- zehnte Brumaire des Louis Bona- | parte (Eighteenth Brumaire of Lou- is Napoleon), and in 1853 the “Rev- elations concerning the Cologne Communist Trial” — in which he laid bare the infamous machinations | of the Prussian government and po-| {gram includes the Gluck “Iphigenia “BUCKAROO,” a melodramatic comedy by Albert W. and Edward L.
