	Robert Blatchford
		Robert father died when he was two and at the age of fourteen he was apprenticed as a brushmaker.
		Blatchford, who was editor, announced that the newspaper would follow a "policy of humanity; a policy not of party, sect or creed; but of justice, of reason and mercy." The first edition sold 40,000 and after a few months settled down to about 30,000 copies a week.
		Blatchford also changed his views on equal rights and strongly opposed the policies of the NUWSS and the WSPU.

		Blatchford used his influence to find a job on the railway for another man; he would have to walk four miles and start work at 4am for a pittance.
		They were joined by Robert's brother Montague who also gave up his job, and on the l2th December 1891 they 'went to sea in a sieve' by bringing out the first issue of a penny Socialist weekly, The Clarion (fondly referred to as the 'Perisher') from a tiny office in Corporation Street, Manchester.
		It was the printing of a penny edition of Robert Blatchford's pamphlet Merrie England in the autumn of 1894 which gave the growing number of Clarion CCs and Scouting groups the greatest opportunity for propaganda work.

	Term-Papers.us - Free Will, Conscience And Hard Determinism
		Robert Blatchford held that our choices are reflective of either our heredity or our environment or a combination of both.
		Blatchford wrote that heredity and environment make a person what the are; however, if this is true, how would he explain the fact that there were fl people who protested segregation, which was a part of the every day existence in society then.
		Blatchford argues, conscience does not and cannot tell us what is right and what is wrong; it only reminds us of the lessons we have learnt as to right and wrong.

	Philosophy Study Guide: Part 2
		Blatchford doesn't actually go into this much in his essay, but it's clear that he espouses the theory of "hard determinism," i.e., that for any event in the universe, there is always a set of sufficient conditions such that, given those conditions, the event has to follow.
		Blatchford thinks that for any event, there is a set of conditions, such that, given those conditions, the event must follow.
		Its principal error is to suppose that Stace's theory of "soft determinism" is any less committed than "hard determinism" to the central determinist hypothesis, or any less "rigid" in its insistance that all events, even voluntary human actions, are completely controlled by the laws of cause and effect.

	RICHARD LAWSON: Nationalism, Racialism and Early British Socialism (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-07)
		Prominent among these was Robert Blatchford, editor of a newspaper entitled The Clarion, and author of Merrie England (1893) and Britain for the British (1902).
		It is obvious from Blatchford's writings that his military training had conditioned him to attempt to apply the solutions of war to the problems of peace.
		Blatchford's economic nationalism was to some extent shared by Pete Curran, the Gas Workers' representative in the Independent Labour Party, though it is important to grasp that the socialists were split over their attitude to the Empire.

	Practical Politics, by Alfred Russel Wallace
		Robert Blatchford proceeds to ask a number of questions, and to offer a number of alternatives, as if they were exhaustive and there was nothing more to be said or done.
		And now we have a country in which plague and famine are chronic--a country which we rule and plunder for the benefit of our aristocracy and wealthy classes, and which we are, therefore, in continual dread of losing to Russia.
		I greatly regret being obliged to differ so radically from a man I admire and respect so much as I do Robert Blatchford; but, as I am known to be a Socialist and a constant reader of the Clarion, it might be thought that my silence would imply some degree of agreement.

	Is It Peace or War? A Reply, by Dr. Alfred Russel Wallace
		In the Clarion of same date, R. Blatchford reiterates his former statements as to the preparations of Germany, not only of an enormous fleet, but of a correspondingly extensive flotilla of transports, capable of landing 200,000 men on our Eastern coasts, but of serving no other imaginable purpose.
		Thompson declares it to be an equally well-known fact that the fundamental reason for these preparations is not the mere lust of power and conquest by the military party, but the need for expansion of financial and commercial interests.
		"In the same issue of the Clarion Robert Blatchford has an article on 'The Danger of War,' which, I regret to say, is in my opinion, most unfair to the Labour Party, whose resolution as to the relations between the British and German peoples he either misrepresents or misunderstands.
