Here the anarchists raised another howl
of rage and protest. "lou don't know
what socialism Is, yelled one. "Garslde
i, an anarchist and We are proud Of
him, shouted another, while the rest
cheered to the echo.
II want you anarchists to UNDER
stand, said Mr.. Morgan, after the crowd
had become quiet, "that YOU will not he
allowed TO parade yourselves AS social
lists. Then returning to Garside, lie
said he had simply muddIed and betud-
died the question of socialism, aud had
disgusted all the sociaiists while the an
arChists roared with delight, and Mrs.
Parsons openly twIted them about the
wonderful progress that was being made
in Chicago. "When ! discovered that
he WAS crooked ! was determined to
make him explain himself, and a week
ago / made the attempt, hut he refused
to place himself right before the people,
and we don't want amy more of him.
John SorrelI, an antiquatpd English
man with a piping voice, here arose and
in his ,hriIl treble announced himself rs
an anarchist pure and simple. and the
crowd checred him to the echo, lie
sand the socialists did not know what
they believed themselves The anar-
ChistS wanted no government, because
there could he no government without
force. The socialists wanted force and
the anarchists did not. He then re
ferred to the postoilice system, which
was claimed to be AN evidence of the
progress Of socialism, and claimed that
it was simply a system organized to rob
the employees.
"What would the anarchists do with
the post office: :" inquired Secretary
Heeg.
DO away with it," "cruah it out Of
existence exclaimed several voices, but
Mr.. Sorrell declined to answer the ques-
ton and sat down.
Mr.. WOOdman then paid her respects
to Prof, Garside in an eloquent address.
She claimed that Garsjdc had endeaV-
Ored to bring sChism and contention in
to the ranks of socialism, and that meant
disast'r and suicide. Garside might be
an eloquent speakep but his utterances
lacked the true ring Of socialism.
Here the anarchists became unruly
and attempted to cry the speaker down,
in which they were assisted by the
chairman, but Mrs. Woodman hravely
held her ground, and continued her
speech. "CarSide is an anarchist said
she and again the anarchists Cheered,
Il honor and respect some anarchists,
she continued, mot because they are
anarchists, but in spite of that fact.

believes in neither"
"Dot's so,' yelled a German in the
rear.
"Garside," said the speaker, seemed
to have adopted the maxim that Ian
guage was given to Us to conceal our
thoughts, and his lectures were certainly
lacking in common sense. Garside
claimed that the ballot was useless, and
