The meeting was presided over by a

The principal theme, and the speakers
were unusually fierce and bloodthirsty
in their advocacy of the use of dyna
mite. The, London explosions
we're characterized as a
great advertisement OF the power
OF the dynamiters. 1t was
said that it showed the ability of the
socialists to go into large crowds in
broad daylight and explode
their bombs with perfect safety.
One speaker, in reply TO
the objection that the use of
dynamite caused the death of innocent
persons, said that the innocent must
suffer for the good of the great body. In
the case of the London explosion, the
! machine was set off in the house of
lords first in order that the large num-
Der of persons in the house of
| commons might have time to escape.
Another said that little hogs
grease and little nitric acid formed Il

Another remarked that the body of a
dead capitalist would serve the pur-
pose as well as that of hog. There were

to manufacture dynamite in their own

that an army of 10000 men stood nc
chance against few men with DIV.
