Lustead of rioting, reform is to be brought about by law. It is proposed in England that twenty-five per cent of all fortunes above a certain figure be confiscated for the benefit of the Government; and the English Government is greatly in need of assistance, because of bonuces to the unemployed, providing homes for the homeless, and subsidies for reducing the price of food. The old way was for a mob to appear in front of a rich man's house, set it on fire, and shoot him as he ran out. Then the rioters looted the place, and carried off such of the rich man's property as was not hurned. The new way known as Constructive Thought is very much better it is being used in the United States in robbing the railroads. The tracks are not blown up, bridges burned, etc... but legislation is adopted to strip them. Labor bills are increased, thousands of petty of fleials are paid salaries to manage rail road affairs.
