A curious bit of anarchistic in
consistency comes from Chicago,
where these beings most do con-
gregate. One of the fraternity
recently stood shoutingfor anarchy
and waving a red handkerchief
(the report does not say it was a
bandana) in doorway of that
city. Presently he began tearing
down an American flag that
draped the doorpost, but at this
juncture some boys interfered,
captured the anarchist, and pro-
curing some paint, decorated his
face and clothing with "the red,
white and blue" Then the man VINO
had been hurrahing for anarchy
and denouncing the law proceeded
to invoke the power of the latter
for the punishment of. the boys.
He had them arrested, and, de-
spite the raillery of the Judge,
who humorously called his atten-
ton to the inconsistency of his
appeal to laws he did not believe
in, he insisted on "having justice
done him." The boys were dis
charged with suspended fines. 1t
is a characteristic of the class of
people whom this man represented
that the only laws they desire to
abolish are those which protect
others against them. They are
themselves the first to claim pro-
lection by law when menaced.

Something to Remember.

Don't forget, that your neighbor,
though he differs from you politi-
cally, may be just as honest in his
convictions as you; that this is a
free country, where freedom of
opinion has ever been tolerated.
in fact, liberation is not the word,
for freedom of opinion is one of
the biggest of the broad founda-
ton stones of our republican gov
ernment, and there would be an
end of that form of government
without it.-PhiladelpRia Star.

up in packages of $4,000 stamps

something, even in Philadelphia.
