from the many hands thst made
them to th^ few'hands that now
hold them. If it be admitted that
wealth rightfully belongs to
those who make it (and who can'
say it doesn't!), then it cannot be
denied that about ninety per cent
of the wealth of the nation is now-
in the wrong hailds. The awful
injustice St present -consists in let-
ting it remain in those wrong
hands.
Positively the best definition of
"Revolution" I have ever seen
was set out by Wilford B. Smith
in his November Pitchfork when
he said: "Revolution is evohp-
tion in a hurry." "T;
