member of the German Reichstag and DIR.
Edward Aveling, one Of the foremost Of the

party will delray DIR. Ayeling's expenses.

fourteen-year-Old daughter Of John Pfefler,

few hours later, members of the family

her. On opening the door they were hor-
rilied to find her hfeleSS body, still warm,
hanging by a rope from beam overhead.
There is nothing to indicate why she COM
mitted suicide, and some neighbOrS claim
she was the victim of foul murder.

to think that the Savior felt rather lonely
at the crueifxion.
Your prospects, Mr.. Henry, cannot be
very cheering at this stage of the game -
"We have fanaticism of devotion and per
feet reliance in scientific courses. If the
latter confirm us we are fully justified in
the former. We bide events
"You say that Socialists bide events.
That is queer expression when they are
engaged in precipitating events"
1T is not at all queer if you will con-
slider it. Keep in mind the fact that
consider my own ideas and have. no right
| to pledge others to them. At the least we
are working to secure the right of every
man TO have his own ideas and act them
out, being under no dictation to any source
but nature, which none can disobey. That
is the Socialists idea-freedom, better de-
fined by the word Anarchism If you have
mind to tear down your house for the
purpose of rebuilding you would think
yourself precipitating the event"
why do Socialists try to tear down our
laws and institutions, which, it is plainly
seen, would bring all things Ito chaotic
SillstSI.
Because the law is found to be the
guardian of the property, and property IT.
served from the people is the cause of their
starvation. Take away and the resources
of nature would be free to all 10 be had by
intelligent cooperation. They are not free
to all now. for they are owned. Owner
ship, or reservation, would he impossible
if there is no law. 1t is the sanction of all
robbery; it is the inspiration of all resist
ance."
would not the worlds affairs become Il
pretty mess if criminals were not re-
strained and people had liberty to do as
they liked?"
II think not, and you will think so on
reflection. What makes a criminal? He
was deprived of something that he needed.
Nature does not deprive him; her doors
are always open and she invites. lie can
not naturally desire more than satisfaction
and to get that, which is his right, if there
be such principle in the arrangement OF
things, he must break the cover of owner
ship. | want to say something radical and
you can ponder on it at your leisure. The
thief i'll prison is the honest man, by his
very act of thieycry, and the respectable
man outside of prison is the real thief,
This looks like an upset of all right ideas.
But think over it; it may look different
after Il while.
