lie warned his audience that the time
would come when the brutal oppression
of the capitalists would drive every one
save themselves into the ranks of socialism.
There was more danger to capitalism
from the Knights of Labor outside of
the organization known by that name
than from the organization itself. The
existing social order was founded in
fraud, and maintained by force, and he
counscled his hearers to arm themselves
and be prepared to meet force by force.

bic for it, for they kept up the perpetual
panic in the homes OF the poor by their
ever-increasinc and grinding cxactions.

capitalist will reduce the American
sovereign, the freeman and voters to u
condition lower even than that of the

prayer or petition to the capitalist for
equity the capitalist appealed to the mill
tary. The people also paid for the police
who shot them down at the order of the
capitalists. There was revolution Or
ganized by q powerful association of
few against the many. The Anarchist
closed his remarks by advising the work
ing people to be prepared for all emergen-
