The  only society in which the rights of individuals will be respected will  be a communistic society, in which the partnership will always be voluntary.  Where the right to secede is not recognized - in a family, a state,  or a federation of states - there exists subjection, slavery.
All the frenzied babble about the right of majorities to govern other  than themselves must cease. Between kingcraft and communism there is  no logical or permanent abiding-place. The rights of all individuals  must be recognized as equal, or, sooner or later, we must submit to  the "divine rights of kings" - supreme thieves.
Already, in these States, we have an upper ten and an upper ten thousand  - virtually ten kings and ten thousand peers of the realm - whose wealth  is stolen from the people by the vilest monopolies, usurpations, usuries;  and this devilish aristocracy is not despised, but admired. To-day this  aristocracy is more powerful and vicious than that of Britain, and the vox populi is now really less  effective in the United States than it is in the United Kingdom.
Commercialism is organized discord. Communism is organized harmony.  Commercialism is compulsory conflict. Communism is voluntary concrete.
WM. HARRISON HILEY.
