A principle which meet here in this place, is a
4 principle of social order. Many people when
! they hear this word, social order" get almost
nervous and excited There are many that mis-
use this sacred word as blasphemy. They

This both of October has presented to the
world spectacle which, once seen, proudly
proclaim that no czars and emperors of Austria
