the very spirit of the revolution.  “Organize!  Organize!  Organize!”—­that was his cry.  He was afraid of this tremendous vote, which his party had not expected, and which it had not earned.  “These men are not Socialists!” he cried.  “This election will pass, and the excitement will die, and people will forget about it; and if you forget about it, too, if you sink back and rest upon your oars, we shall lose this vote that we have polled to-day, and our enemies will laugh us to scorn!  It rests with you to take your resolution—­now, in the flush of victory, to find these men who have voted for us, and bring them to our meetings, and organize them and bind them to us!  We shall not find all our campaigns as easy as this one.  Everywhere in the country tonight the old party politicians are studying this vote, and setting their sails by it; and nowhere will they be quicker or more cunning than here in our own city.  Fifty thousand Socialist votes in Chicago means a municipal-ownership Democracy in the spring!  And then they will fool the voters once more, and all the powers of plunder and corruption will be swept into office again!  But whatever they may do when they get in, there is one thing they will not do, and that will be the thing for which they were elected!  They will not give the people of our city municipal ownership—­they will not mean to do it, they will not try to do it; all that they will do is give our party in Chicago the greatest opportunity that has ever come to Socialism in America!  We shall have the sham reformers self-stultified and self-convicted; we shall have the radical Democracy left without a lie with which to cover its nakedness!  And then will begin the rush that will never be checked, the tide that will never turn till it has reached its flood—­that will be irresistible, overwhelming—­the rallying of the outraged workingmen of Chicago to our standard!  And we shall organize them, we shall drill them, we shall marshal them for the victory!  We shall bear down the opposition, we shall sweep if before us—­and Chicago will be ours!  Chicago will be ours!  Chicago will be ours!”
