Excerpt from Some Objections to Socialism Considered and Answered Plain' Words on Socialism, would appear in the form of a pamphlet. I at once congratulated him on this decision, adding that I trusted this one would prove to be but the first of a series. With that urbanity which our comrade usually exhibits in his writings, he wrote back insisting upon my writing a short preface to what he described as his maiden effort. This was the last honour I expected, and I tried to evade the responsibility by telling him that his writing would speak for itself. However, he proved insistent, and so I had to succumb to his blandishments. Those who have for years read Tattler's notes in Justice on current events must have been struck, I am sure, with his fine logical acumen, combined with the sweet reasonable ness of his methods of controversy Tattler has always scrupulously endeavoured to state the case of his opponent fairly, before proceeding to demolish him in argument. So successful has Tattler been in his encounters with the enemy, that readers of Justice will agree with me that it has fallen to the lot of few writers to win so many victories with the pen. Unfortunately, most writers who attack Socialism know little of the subject they criticise. Mr. Devas, however, as Tattler says, has taken thetrouble to inform himself on what Socialists think, and, therefore, the comments of Tattler will be read with more than usual interest.
