Is Greed the Only Incentive?
With how little wisdom In til" world
governed? what do you think of the
morality, whal do you think of the
Intelligence, whnt do you think of the
knowledge of these "practical state*
men," those men you choer and vote
for?
They tell you that unlen yon pay
clover men Mb wngim, they will oease
to work.
They toll you another day that If
you pay clever men at all, they will
cease to work.
They declare fir of all that It Is
only lust after money that makes
IBM j'.roat.
They declare next that money Is
such ■ vllo thing that If you pay mem
bers of parliament you will ruin tho
country, because only greedy adven
turers will work for money.
Is the hwliilhli hint for wealth tho
OM motivo powor of all clover men,
except our members of parllamont?
Wh.U do you think Ib the chief food
of genius? Does the proHpect of
wealth Inspire Ilamletß or Laocoons,
tho steam engines and printing
presses? The true artist, tho man to
whom all creative work Is due, Is
mainly Inspired, sustained, and ro
wardod by a love of his art. Milton
wroto 'Paradise Lost" for $40. Can
greed produce a poem like It? Many
Improvements In machinery are made
by workmen. Often they get no pro
fit. Sometimes the master patents
the improvement, pays tho drudgo a
few shillings a week for his ideas
and makes thousands. Shall wo meas
ure men's brains like corn, or gauge
tho pressure and the power of fiery
passions and quenchless faiths by
horse power? All tho forces of all
the kings on earth cannot make one
brave man turn on his heel; all the
wealth of the nations cannot buy one
pure soul; all the fools in a big city
cannot conquer one strong brain; all
the drilled and crammed dunces that
political economy and hidebound
school systeniH can band together can
not advance the cause of knowledge
or liberty one inch.
NEWS FROM MARCUS
Marcus, Nov. 22, 1915.
Times are very dull In Stevens
county. It is almost impossible to
get work of any kind. Marcus and vi
cinity is especially quiet, much quiet
er that a year ago. There are about
twenty Henrys working for Jim Hill
in tho yards and shops here for very
small wages.
Local Marcus In spite of hard times
is fairly active. We have never miss
ed meeting, and the local is always
in good standing.
Emil Herman spoke here on Nov.
2. We will also have him on the
evening of the 22nd. He sure can de
liver the unadulterated goods, and he
gets results.
We nominated Eugene V. Debs for
president, Allan Benson, vice-presi
dent; John M. Work, national secre
tary; Emil Herman, Katherine Hodg
ins, John Dequer, John M. Salter and
Morris Hillquit for N. E. C. mem
bers.
JOHN M. POWERS.
For the popular songs and best In
strumental hits of the day, call on or
address The Everett Music House
(R. D. Hodgins), 2936 Colby Avenue.
This reliable house also carries a full
line of violins, accordians, etc., at low
est prices consistent with good qual
ity.
TO VISITORS
When you visit tin; office of The
Northwest Worker and find but slight
attention is paid to your Inquiries do
not blame the staff. Comrades Ship
ley and Wattß have so much to do
and such little time to do it. in that
they cannot find time to visit with
every comrade that conies in. We are
kept on I lie Jump all the time ami
when a visitor gets us Into a lengthy
discussion it simply means that we
have to "burn midnight oil" In order
to catch up with our work. We can
not increase our staff as we ourselves
can net but a dollar or two a week
from the work we do, so we ask you
not to be disappointed at the recep
tion you receive at our hands. We
are willing to take your money, but
to enter into conversation with you
on different subjects means delaying
our work, and to delay our work
makes it harder for us to get out the
paper and collect the funds.

Thin paltry plea about pay! Yet,
oven If we admit that "pay" la tho

It would seem as though tho men of
"ability" are not tho men who get tho
mom ;>f It. It would seem a Bad thing
that Oarwln should get no more
"pay" than tho "clod" who breaks
stones. Hut them aro "clods" who
break backs and hearts Instead of
Htonos, who got moro than tho men
of ability. For Instance, Jay Gould,
the "financier" got more "pay" and
held moro wealth than Gladstone, and
Carlylo, and Darwin, and Koch, and
Galileo, and ColumbuH, and Cromwell,
and Caxton, and Stephenßon, and

ent system, of "pay."
Are tho best men of today the best
paid? Are the most useful men the
best paid? Are the most Industrious
men tho Wealthiest? Do thn noblest
and the cleverest men work for gain?
Do they get rich? Did the lovo of
gain ever make a hero or a martyr?
Will a man do most for love or for
money? For honor or for money? For
duty or for money? Having no mon
ey does a genius become a fool? Hav
ing much money, does a fool become
a genius? Did any nation, loving
money, ever become groat? — From

MANY SOCIALISTS ARE
ELECTED IN SOMERSET
SOMERSET, Pa.--The Socialists
elected a justice of the peace, auditor
and two councilman at Garrett, Pa.,
and one councilman at Hooversville.
'I In- vote in Somerset county shows
an encouraging increase, not one of
the 56 precincts failed return at least
one Socialist vote. The total high
vote for each of the precincts shows
1031 elector! voted for Socialists
while in 1912 Debs polled 654 votes
in the county.
WHAT SOCIALISM IS
Socialism is a word having two dis
tinct but related meanings: primar
ily it is used as the name of a cer
tain philosophy of history and meth
od of interpreting and analyzing so
cial phenomena. In the second place,
since this philosophy and method have
as one of their principal conclusions
that society is evolving toward a co
operative social stage, the word is
used to designate a co-operative so
cial organization, where the means
for the production and distribution of
wealth are the collective property of
the working class, while the goods
which are to he consumed become the
private property of the individual
workers.—A. M. Simons, in Bnclyco
pedia Americana.
The one big outstanding objection
to woman suffrage seems to be that
if women are given Hie ballot they
will vote the men into a state of de
-01 in y.- Toledo Blade.
' ' I
la the long run men hit only what
they aim at. Therefore, though they
should fail immediately, they had bet
ter aim at something high.—Thoreau.

WHO ARE THE THIEVES?
By William Denton
What stores of wealth in unfound
mines
The lich old earth contains!
Of iron, silver, lead and gold,
What piles within her veins!
While still with bounteous harvests
Bwell
Our mother's undrawn breast,
Of sweetest fruit, of corn and oil,
■ To make each poor man blest.
What rocks to make his palace walls!
What cedars for its beams!
Our pauper's might as wealthy be
v misers in their dreams.
What woods uncut! what fields un
ploughedl
The laborer is God's heir;
Who steal his proud inheritance?
Who are the thieves, and where?
Who lock up Nature's boundless
wealth,
Nor heed the lleedy's cry?
They are man's enemies;
And they or we must die!
Now the Turks protest against vio
lation of the rules of war by their
enemies. The difference between war
and massacre is that the latter has
no rules. —New York Evening Post.
In praying that he may live to see
a woman President of the United

There are twice as many people in
the United States as in 1880, three
times as many as at the outbreak of
the Civil war, and fives times as many
as in '4<i. The increase between 1910
and 191E ia said t o have been equal
to the entire population at the time of
the Revolution.

we want you to take advantage of our

The organized man is a power; he

merely a part of a mob, with no chart

superior to the finest Merino for this
