To me the name of Eugene V. Debs means this—loyalty absolute,
unswerving, incorruptible to the Cause of Labor, the Cause of Humanity
itself. Where that Cause is at stake, Debs sinks his personality with
utter self-abnegation; he fears nothing, he dares all in defense of that
splendid ideal. No threat deters him; nor is there gold enough in all
the swollen purses of Plutocracy to turn this man one hair’s-breadth
aside from his fidelity to Labor. Greater love than his hath no man. All
honor to ’Gene Debs, say I.—GEORGE ALLAN ENGLAND, Bryant’s Pond, Maine.
