stag yesterday, during debate on
the anti-Socialist Bill, Hazelman,
a well know Socialist agitator,
made violent though clever
speech, beginning and ending with |
threats of violence and bloodshed |
as result of repressive legislation.
He said the people would hold |
those responsible for bloodshed who |
helped to frame and adopt the law.
Concluding, he declared that If |
the pacific endeavors of Socialism |
were repressed, the day would come
when Socialists would take up
arms and fight against their ty-
rants. The President of the Reich
stag called Hazelmann to order and |
said the speech was an Indictment |
to rebellion. Hazelmann repeated |
his words and was again |
called to order amid loud
and indignant protests. He
went on to say, IT am not PERSONAL
ly in favor Of the resolution. l pre-.
fer pacific means. But, If we are
forced to fight, we shall know how
to fight, and l shall be proud to lay
down my life on the field of honor. |

clared even the advanced Liberals |
now admitted TO be necessary.
Benningsen said he had no fear |
that Bismarck would allow the
anti-Socialist law to be employed |
to impair the liberties of the peo-
pie.
