Had Christ taught Natural Law instead of supernatural religion, had he
been an organizer and started a movement toward the abolition of the
money system and established a united labor organization in place of the
system of individual accumulation, the world long ere this would have
been a heavenly abiding place for the human family, instead of a
seething furnace of petty quarrels, murderous fights, and selfish strife
among all of the inhabitants.

Why should one hog have more to eat than another? Why should one man
have more luxuries and privileges than another? Why should the man who
conceives an idea receive a greater reward than he who puts the idea
into execution? Why should the man who works with his brain have more of
the sweets of life than he who works with his hands? Why should the man
who lays the brick have more of the world's goods than he who carries
the brick mortar to him? These questions do not apply alone to the
capitalist, but also to the laborer as well, and as long as the laboring
classes champion the cutthroat policy of grading man's allowance
according to his ability, of giving more to one than another, owing to a
slight difference of brain capacity, he should not, after showing his
own greediness in this respect, expect the capitalist not to be greedy
also. He must learn that all men should have equal opportunities and
benefits from the whole production of united labor. As long as money
exists, so long will fights and quarrels take place between capital and
labor, and between the different branches of labor as well. The laborer
will fight the capitalist until he in turn becomes a capitalist, and
then he will turn about and fight the laborer. So there is but one
reasonable method to pursue in order to better the conditions on earth,
and to eliminate suffering and crime entirely, and that method is to
strike at the very root of the cause, and abolish money and the system
of individual accumulation.

CHAPTER XXIX

My sojourn at the Waldoria Hotel was a rather pleasant one in many ways.
I enjoyed the luxury and refinement of the surroundings. The harmonious
music of the orchestras was pleasant to listen to, and the magnificent
paintings and beautiful works of art were pleasing to the eye. I also
took some pleasure in wearing the different suits of fine clothes with
which I had been supplied, and in making my own person appear as well as
possible in the eyes of others. I even enjoyed entering
