THERE could be no more forcible illustration of the power of thought than is to be so clearly seen in the wonderful change in the last few years, in the position of woman and her relation to the economic world. Not so very many years ago she was considered necessary, indeed, to the life of […]
Of course there’s a good deal of substance to the old bromide about newspapermen meeting a lot of interesting people. A lot of highly unusual people, too, with novel missions in life. There is Mr. F. M. Wilkesbarr, for example, who goes about lecturing on neo-determinism. A commanding personality, he announces that he is from […]

Dear Sir, — Of the many letters published in this column during the past fortnight treating of the “Truthseeker” and blasphemy, none have.

Nietzsche et l’Amérique Le «surhomme» de Fr. Nietzsche, par GOEBEL et ANTRIM. Biographie de Nietzsche. Sa doctrine: le christianisme fut le retournement radical des notions anciennes du bien et du mal, l’apologie de la faiblesse; il est continué par l’esprit démocratique, tout dévoué aux êtres inférieurs. Le surhomme, au contraire, est le fort, le conquérant, […]
Nietzsche Again! To the Editor of The Truth Seeker: I am enclosing you a clipping from a London radical Journal (Redbeard’s Review). It is very evidently the article on Nietzsche which has made Mr. C. F. Hunt, Chicago, so awfully mad. Nietzsche, I may be allowed to point out, was of Polish blood and Polish […]
Re the ILP Club Room Controversy To the Editor of the “Bradford Daily Telegraph” Sir, – Mr. A. T. Sutton knows as much about this affair as a pig knows about the perfumes of paradise.
