And who is after all accused? Who is searched? Whose character and history of life is mercilessly scrutinized at the bars of charity? [SN: HE IS REGARDED AS INFERIOR.] Again the same propertyless victims, the same economic slaves, whose lives have been spent in working for the owners of wealth, owners of property, of fortunes. It is certainly not with Japan, nor even civilized England, where primogeniture persists to reign, and where the hereditary noblemen [SN: PRINCIPLES OF INJUSTICE.] equally continue to suck the energy of the British and Irish people and of the peoples of their colonies that we have to deal with. “In 1891 Great Britain and Ireland had had nearly 6,000,000 propertyless families[54];” and they have been accustomed for centuries to spend more than half of their energy in favor of the lords of property, who are the lords of nearly all resources of wealth in Britain and in many other parts of the world. But we have to deal with the people of the United States, whose fathers tried by all means to escape the influence of primogeniture, and whose children have now reached the same economic [SN: DIVIDOGENESURE.] condition of slavery, but under a different title, viz., that of dividogenesure.[55] As its definition here shows, the principle of dividogenesure involves both the individual and class dependence of the needy upon the wealthy and applies to the entire millions of the group of tenant families, as well as to the group of mortgagor families of the 2d table.[56] For all these families have been dividing the sole results of their labor or toil, in one way or another, between themselves and their economic masters that they wholly or partly depend upon. The subsequent chapters, however, will better explain the situation of their dependence. While here we shall but briefly indicate that dividogenesure, as a principle of tacit reality, separates the people into two classes: 1st, into individuals of multiple expenditure in each case, but with a possible semi-income [SN: ECONOMIC CLASSES.] for supplying this expenditure; and 2d, into individuals of also multiple expenditure for living, but at the same time of multiple incomes sufficient to leave a considerable net profit or balance for their future. This balance or profit, in some cases, gradually amounts to millions of dollars’ worth of wealth, remultiplying further incomes most rapidly; while the individuals of the first class become absolutely dependent upon the second even for the semi-income which may at any time be refused them on account of too many individuals in need of resources for incomes belonging to the second class. And it further follows, that when the resourceless are admitted into the sphere of dividogenesure, [SN: ONE SPHERE.] then their multiple expenditure is meagerly supplied. But when they are refused admittance into this sphere, then their unavoidable fate is starvation or falling back into the realm of public relief for the unemployed.
