The Masses (periodical)/Volume 1/Number 1/Labor Delegate

Why is the capitalist burning with indignation?

Why is he cursing the delegate of a labor union?

Why does he always curse a labor delegate?

Why? Because the labor delegate faces him and says: "The men demand their rights."

He isn't used to being ordered. He wants to do all the ordering himself.

He does'nt know as Abraham Lincoln knew that "Labor is prior to capital."—But he will know it some day.—Arthur Young.
