EDITORIALSGENERAL ASSAULT ON THE I. W. W.

By ('ovNuroN IHALL.

The news cominlg fromrn all parts of the Continent leaves no doubtthat lthe' Masters of I'read are mnaking a gieneral aLssault on the I. W. W.and the Red Wing of Ithe Socialist party.

has to get rid of by stopping the machinery of industry till the surplusas consumed or squandered, or to cause a war to get a chance to unloadthe surplus on the government. il

There is a way to stop panics, wars and overproducton, and thatis for the working clam to take over all the industries and operatethem for their own benefit, and let your first law be, "lHe who doesnot work, shall not eat." (How old Kirby and Long hate that para-ble!) In order that you may be able to run the industries for yourown interest you must first educate yourself and study your interestinstead of the boss'. Second, you must organize in one body regardlessor nationality, creed or color; for in organization there is poeer. Thefirst thing the "captains of industry" do whenever they start a nervmill or factory is to organize their crew, or when a war is declaredthe first thing the government does is to drill its men to handle tieimplements of war and, therefore, you will have to organize so you willunderstand one another better and know how to handle the industriesfor your own interest. Hlere comes the cry of the sucker again: "The

working class is too ignorant to handle the industries." Why so7

Are you, the working class not running all the industries to-dayt Doyon not repair all the machinery? Do you not build all the mills andfactoriest In fact, are you not producing everything that is a benefit

to society, while the capitalist class is living in idleness, trying toconsume andl sluaruler what you produce ? Workingmen. do you not

think it is time to stop such a system?7 )o you not think it is timefor you to join the ONE BIG UNION, the union of the working class?You may ask, why dos the capitalist class take four-fifths of what weproduce. The answer is simple, it is just because you let them.

"Workers of the World, unite! You have nothing but your chains

to lome, you have a world to gain!" If you do not organize under

the banner of the ONE BIG UIT)ON, the I. W. W. and stop this rob-

bing system, then you will be responsible for the illfarre of the future

generation.

A "BULLETIN" NEEDED.Fellow-worker Alexander MacKay, of Eureka, Calif ,writes "The

Voice of the I'eople" under date of the 6-30th, and 7-11th, strongly

advct'ating the publication of a "IBulletin" for the discussion iof inter-

val matters, a paper for the memnbership only. II'm idea looks like a

first-class one to us. The time is ripe. we believe, even for a first-class

I. W. W. Review in which we could discuss anything and everything

pertaining to the organization. leaving the weekly papers to carry or

propaganda and agitation, which is their true field.

We hope the Locals will look into this "Bulletin" idea of Fellow1

worker MacKay with a view to the early establishment of such a

Review.

TRAUTMAN WITH S. L. P.Under (late of .July 17th, we have s letter from Fellow-worker' J.

Menke, of Chicago saying that Trautumn "is now working with the

S. IL. 1. in Chicago.With Miller's masterful lutation of his "charges" re the Law-

rence strike and defense funds in "Soliderity," this news about dis-

poses of Trautman. All we can do is to weep over one more "great

leader" gone to rest.

Thomans .. Tynan, warden of the (Colorado State penetentiary, in the

"American Motorist" of May, 191:t.

At this rate of "saving" the whole, working class will soon he

inl the pnis aIin on the ichain ganigs.

It's no wonder that I)enver objects se, streniiiioiiisly to ' freespeech.

But, they who ride over roadways built with stolen labor, out of the

blighted lives of their fellownmen, they! ridel the way of I)iaz.

1Between these two clas•es a lstruggl must so on until the workers of theworld .organize as a cla;ss, take pIssession olf the earth and the machinery'f plrodluctolU.;il an bolish the wag, Hy.tem.i

We finrd that the centering of the mnanagelent of industries ito fewerand fewer hblnds niakes the tralde unions unable to cope with the ever-grow-

Ing power of the employing class. The t•ade unions foster a state of affaiwhich allows one set of workers to be pitted aKainst another set of workersin the same industry, thereby helping defeat one another in wage wars. Moreover. the trade unlons aid Lid emnploying class to mislead the workers Into the

b.lieef that the. working class have interests In common with their employers.

These conditions can be changed and the interest of the worklng classuupheld only by an organization forneed in such a way that all Its membersin any one industry. or in all industries, if nece'sary, cease work whenever astrike or lockout on in any departmtent thereof, thus making an Injury to,ne an injury to all.

Instead of the conservat!ve mtotto, "A fair day's wage for a fair day'swork." wt roust inscribe on our banner the revolutionary watchword, "Abo-!:tion of the wage systehre."

It is the historic nission of the workling class to do away with capltal-Isrn. The arnry of prodluction mIl0-;t be organized, not only for the everydayStlelg•ic with calapitalilsi. but els.no to ca'ry on production when capitalism

sh;a:l have been overthrown. Ity organizing industrially we are forming thestrlluctilre of the new eel tty witie tihe shell of the old.

Second Lumber Thief: I have neverheard them preach in favor of violencebut always have heard' them preachagainst violence; but you know pal youreally could not blame the working clasif they did use unlawful means to gethold of the industries, for you know wegot hold of them, anyway we could, andI tell you there is no use in talking thatthing theiy call sabotage is hell. It willwphip and put any manufaucturer outof business.

First Lumber Thief: But what arewe going to do when the working peopletake over the industries?

Sectnd Lumber Thief. Well I tellyou pal, I have been reading some oftheir literature and they claim they aregoing to put us to work whenever theytake over the industries.

First Timber Thief: What about"The Voice of the People" (Lumber-jack) Hlave you ever read it?

Second Lumber Thief. You bet Imore trouble at the present timie thanmore trouble at thep resnt time thananything else. It will cause the wholemouth to wake up if we do not stop it;

that "Voice of the People" (Lumber-jack) has got to be stopped or we willhave to go to work in less than five yearsand you know I would hate like hell topu t on overalls, and go to work for itcertainly would hurt my feelings.

lHere the conversation was interruptedby the appearing of a third party, andof course, ended my eaves-droppingwhich I hated for I certainly was over-joyed at the idea of the Timber Thievesadmitting to one another what a goodorganization the I. W. W. was for theworking class, and how detrimental it'was to their class, and I was glad forthe bo•ns to acknowledge what a powerfulweapon "The Voice of the People"(Lumberjack) was and that it had to bestopped.

Your Excellency-On yesterday, the21st, the first batch of Chinese strike-breakers was brought into this port bythe I;nited" Fruit Co. They werebrought in on the Southern Pacificsteamship Comus. The ship reachedport with all its officers under arms.Four Coolies had been wounded, onemortally; by the offijcers in an alleged"'mutiny" (the Chinese were passen-

gers, so we fail to see how they could"mutiny") which the officers said oc-cured about forty miles down the River.One Chinaman was sent to the hospitaland the rest, handcuffed two and twotogether were turned over to the UnitedFruit Co.

We demand that you investigate this"mutiny" of passengers and challengethe right of the Fruit Trust to nullifythe Nation's labor laws by dodging be,hind the British flag.

Merryville Notes.Well, I am going to tell some few

truths about conditions here. My mindgoes back this morning to the time whenBeecher was engineer and slept on thejob. Hoffman was shipping clerk, aninefficient one; and Dave Sargent, wholoved to blow the whistle so well, theywere all fired.

When the men went on strike herethat bunch of degenerates came sailingback and, because the company couldget no men to work, they took them intotheir little pen again aln let them work.The point is this, when they can do nobetter they work such suckers, when theyhave served their purpose out they go.

Sargent is fired again as I told himhe wouldl; he now is a counter jumperin the colmpany store waiting for an-other strike so he can scab some more.One of the blacksmiths who worked allthrugh the strike told me "he livedandl I lared;' " confessed he did wrongartl all that. Smle see the errors oftheir ways ilrighlt.

who pretiled and who lost., and why.•Kinney Reid, Jr.,. and J. S. Laster had

a little chat not knowing that a thirdparty was near. Now it seems that Las-ter wants to get out of Merryville, buthe is afraid it will be merrier outsidethan in town, especially DeQuincey. Sothey have a little plot on foot that doescredit to their brains. They propose to&a DeQuincey, so they are to have abunch get on the train somewhere abovethere, send one man into the front coach,the rest to remain concealed, and whensome one in DeQuincey attempts to beathim up the whole bunch will pile outand mob him. Very nice plan, but itwon't work.

By some aciedent or other, a train offire came from the woods last week. Wedon't know how loaded logs could geton fire, and a scab that works in thewoods told me that more logs burnedin the woods that were cut in the mill.

Well, all Locals remember the BigLabor Day Barbecue in Merryville andcome and have a good time. Speakingand everything that's good( to eat.

Yours to win,ItED FRED.

Intelligence is PowerTo aill Secretaries and Members, N. I. U.

of F. and L. W. of the I. W. W.,Southern District:

Fellow-workers-For the first time Ihave a good supply of literature dealingwith the principles of revolutionaryindustrial unionism. The power of anyorganization is always measured by theintelligence of its membership. Nowthe most important step in the directionof realizing our hope, is to build up anorganization that is revolutionary in itsaim, aggressive in its policy and demo-eratie in its management. I have agood supply of leaflets written by thebest authors on the econmic question, alsoa few pamphlets that should be read byevery workingman. This literature issold to the Local I'nions at co-operativeprices.

You can't build an organization with-out members. The bestwt Locals that wehave in the whole movement had theknowledge before they were organized.Seeds grow best in fields that are pre-

pared and fertilized, and the best wayto prepare for the future harvest is toget a good supply of this literature atonce and begin selling it so that themembership will become educated, and

then the membership will begin to in-

crease. Education is the only thing

needed among the Southern Workers,and now that we have this supply of

literature on hand, each Local Secretaryshould send in an order for a supply. Ifyou cannot afford a large order,. just

send $1.00 and I will select and send

you an assorted lot that you can sell and

Cravens Notes.This is how scabs are treated at

Cravens, La., and it is good medicine forsuch lobsters. In and around -Cravenswater melons have gone sky high on thescabs as has all other produce. Smallmelons, weighing only 10 to 15 pounds,sell in the commissary at $1.10 and up,I am told. The company buys same at25 cents a piece by the wagon load.

A scab or any one else who pays $1.10for a melon, I say he is too green toburn until he's kiln dried, unless itweighed something like 100 pounds.But, you may talk to a lobster but youcan't make him understand English.

There is a certain woods foreman who,if you could see him drive in after afew days' absence, you would think theson of the "Prodigal Son" had returned.That is why the slaves have no money-the Prodigal Sons get it all.

Why don't you lumberjacks make upand get in the Union If there's any-thing better than Union, It's moreUNION. Unity is all we need. So alwho work, come in and join hands withyour class. Be men. Be I. W. W's.Don't scab on the union that's goingto win and soon.

Yours for all true Union men only,J. R. STaOTHEB.

Ipswich Strikers Evicted.Ipswich, Mass., July 15, 1913.

The mill owners suddenly got busyyesterday morning and began to evictstrikers from company houses. All daylong the company tools sweated over theIihousehold goods which they had to carryout into the streets. In one house thestrikers left a good fire in the cookstove. The mail lagents had an awfultime geting the hot stove out of thehouse. They burned their hands andcursed while the strikers looked on andlaughed. By evening 35 grown peopleand a dozen little children were in thestreets with their poor belongings.

Before this moving was finished forthe day, the town authorities servednotices on the strike•. to remove theirgoods from the street. "The workers onlylaughed at the order and made it veryplain that they would not touch a thingand would hold the town responsible.

That evening the evicted strikerslaid out their blankets on the streetand made ready to sleep on the ground.The town officials came round attempt-ing to frighten the workers away, butthe strikers refused to scare a bit. Thento prevent the town people from seeingthe spectacle, the street lights wereturned off. The strikers promptly littheir oil lamps and a whole block ofhousehold goods was ilhlminated draw-ing atention to the people sleeping ontop. The mayor and other officials re-turnd and pleaded with the strikers notto humiliate the town by sleeping out,but no one paid the least attention tothese fellows. About eleven o'clock inthe evening the street lights were turnedon again and the strikers put out theirlamps to save the fuel for other nights.

On Tuesday the authorities did every-thing possible to get the strikers to re-move the goods in order ,that the townwould not have to stand the damages.The strikers were too wise for this andrefused to move anything. So a wholeblock is littered with goods.

Stoves have been set up on the streeton which the strikers are cooking theirnwalIs, eating on the street as best theyeran. Fires are kept burning in thesto,.es all dlay. When scabs or any spe-cials corne along the usual fuel is sud-rlenly '.hanged to rubber and rags.'Then the authorities kick, the strikers

explain that it is the best fuel they canaff,,rd unlner the circumstances. Thewind was f'avorable, and sime sc'bs near-

ly choked while passing.Iast night all the little children slept

,n t,,p of the piles wh.re every one couldsee• them. Some of the citizens camealong andl wanted to take the little onosaw;ay and give them shelter. The moth-crs refused, stating that if eviction wasthelir lot, their chiklren would also learnlv it and be able to profit in the future.All day ljrag curious people from othertorwns cane to vi,'v the evi.cted pcoplesl.,Iinag ard eating on the street.

The authorities are up in the air anddo not know what to do. The plan wasto evict the strikers and see them haul

their goods away and make room formore goods which would be throwninto the street. The refusal to move hasput a different phase on the matter. Toput more goods in the narrow streetmeans to shut off trafrs The millowners seem to be stupifla at thesolidarity of the strikers who are onlylaughing over the affair. At the sametime the bosses are getting ready to evictall the rest of the striker. Notices havebeen served already and to-morrow isthe day on which the job is to be fin-ished. It is a puzzle where the goodswill be piled, unless they are carriedto another street.

The only thing lacking here is fundsto carry onthe struggle. The strikershave an abundance of determination andcourage, but they need food to carry onthe fight. They are willing to eat andsleep in the street or anything else, iffunds can lie sent in to feed them. Allmoney should be sent to Ipswich De-fense League, Box 282, Ipswich, Mass.

Bohemian and SlovakFellow-workers

AND ALL OTHERS PLEASE TAKENOTICE.

Our press committee has been busyand is doing fine. Our last meetingwas attended by all members and eachone reported some progress towards thelaunching of our new official organ inthe Bohemian language. We have al-ready succeeded in getting free of costthe type and other printing material.But there will be the exlpnses of movingthis material to Solidarity's plant,where the printing will be done, alsothe eost of paper, postage and advertis-ing to be provided for.

Now we want to start this paper atonce,, but have only $50.00 in the treas-ury of press committee which is not suf-ficient. As the paper will run on alosing basis until firmly established inthe glorious field of discontentment un.der the Star Spangled Flag. We knowthat neither the General Office orSolidarit y can help out with finances atthis time. But we do know that therank and file can and think that itswon't bIe tooo much to ask each Local todo something and send some money thisway. Anything will be accepted fromone cent up. Remember that this is thefirst appeal sent out by us from this cityand if the fellow-rebels see the worthof it send in your answer at once.Just as soon ai we get on a good footingfinancially we will let you knoiw when

the first issue of the new fighter is com-ing out. In a few dlays the sub blanks

will be out and then we will hustle asnever before. So all together now, let

us pull the wheel of Education.Address all contributions and re-

quests for rnre information and subblanks to,

Twenty-fie Industrial Woekes andSoeialists are in the county jail chargedwith making incendiary uspeehes."

The above press dispatch appearedin our "+white supremacy" papers ofthe 20th. We have no news from Port-land up to going to press and supposethe rebels are too busy whipping thelawless authorities back within the lawto send letters on telegrams, but wedon't guess we'll miss it for when weguess that the keepers of the .keys tothe boys bathrooms in the Y. M. C. A.are back of this glorious outburst ofpaytriotism on the part of the flagmoboeracy,

Lynch law and policemen's clubs aresure a splendid method of inducing peo-ple to "love and respect flag." It'sgreat! It hammers the REBELLIONinto SOLIDARITY. It wakes "thecommon people" up faster than ever,a million agitators could. On with thepropaganda of the NECESSITY for aSOCIAL REVOLUTION, O my mas-ters!

We have very few home guards, weare mostly sailors and firemen that goaway for months; but as soon as all themen belonging to the mixed Locals alongthe coast transfer to us we can accom-plish more.
