RESVOLUTIONARY SOCIALISM.
Palmerston has been selected by certain revolutionary socialists as a week-end vent for the utterances of extreme balderdash which has become nauseating to intelligent Labour. Our Palmerston morning contemporary, in commenting on the impassioned outbursts of these individuals says inter alia: “They are anathema screechers, epithet hurlers against the established order of things, men who exemplify the axiom that a little knowledge is dangerous ; leaders who profess to be Socialists, but disclose by their remarks that they know little or nothing about the latest teachings of Socialism.” Our contemporary goes on to point out that educated Socialists admit that labour itself produces but a fraction of wealth and that talents, geuius and directive ability must play their part and the reward must be sufficient to supply incentive for the free exercise of these faculties. But, this side of the argument is left severely alone by the somewhat benighted revolutionary socialists.
