ANARCHY IS NOT DEAD.

| The SlumberIng Monster Arouses Long i Enough to Promulgatc an Incendiary 1 screed. Hoping, Perchance, to Again | InfIame Its Dovotces to Acts of Law | lessness.
 | CHICAGO, May 4.-On the 3Dth inst the
 Haymarket monument is to be unvailed,
 and that the Anarchists are already pre- | pairing for the event is evidenced by the
 issuance by some secret printing estab- l lishment of an inhammatory circular,
 copies of which fell into the hands of tho | police yesterday. One of the circulars was
 inclosed in an envelope and sent to Chief Hubbard yesterday morning. Another
 was found lying on the base of the monu-
 ment in Haymarket Square. It is bet | lieved that many. other copies of the cir l cular have been secretly circulated among
 the Anarchists, who are known to be still | loyal to the memory of Spies, Parsons
 and the rest. The circular reads aS fol- | lOWsi
 | May 4, 1886, and November ii, 1887.
 | May I, 1886 A peaceable meeting attacked
 by lS0 armed policemen acting under orders of
 a wcll-llnown bully and ruftan, contrary to the | commands Of the mayor of the city. An | known hand throws a deadly and death dealing | missile, and in moment the air is rent by the
 shrieks and groans of wounded and dying men, | And this is the result of the disobedience the | cowardice and hatred of one man.
 | CITIZENS: YCu are asked to commemorate l by your attendance at the unvaIling of the | statue erect ei to the memory of the policemen
 who fell on that terrible night, the bravery (O, | not of the common people who had no choice | but to obey, but of the man Bonteld whose 1 murderous act caused untold suffering. Some | of you who read this will listen, 1t may be, with | approval to the recital of the awful scenes of l that memorable night. With vehemence and l great eloquence skillful orators will picture to | you the situation, and strong appeals will be l made to your patriotism and your prcjud ceS. l Passion, which time has cooled, will be again | aroused. and the hated Anarchists who, you | win DC told, arc entirely responsible for this
 dreadful affair, wlll be painted as tiendS in hu- | man form. so have the people ever been | blinded by cunning lJnaves But stop. Have \ you ever given thought to tho patient suffer. | ing. the cruel persecution. the unjust trial and | conviction ana the base murder of five Of the | real victims of the HaymarIct tragedy? Or to | the undeserycd punishment compared with | which death would bc mercifu to the other l threeY Have you forgotten the self-sacriiice | and grandeur of spirit and bearing of tue man t who voluntarily surrendered himself to snare | the late of his cOmradesy Do guilty men thus | voluntarily return to meet certain death? l An! friends ask yourselves these questions ! m sober earnestncsS and then listen without | blush of shame, if you can. to your orators as | they tell you this i. the frcest country on tho | face ot the earth. This kind Of patriot sm. Ike l the song of the siren, puts you to sleep whilst i you drift on to certa.n slavery. You remember i the trial of our fricnd,y How the public pros- 1 ecutor, Statcs-Attorney GriuncI, pursued our ! friends with all the malevoence Of a iiend. 1 How he adopted every devIce known 10 cow l ards and kuayes-int' mtdation, bribery, jurg-
 packing and force-to carry out the will of the l money power. whose willing tool he was i There are many incidents connected " tn the l trial which stIll remain 10 be told The time
 will come for the ample justification of our
 comrades but it is noi quite vet, and you who
 pay your tribute to brave men, and cXult m | the triumph of law, consider for moment at
 what fearful price that tr umDh was secured. i When you assemble oD the thirteenth of May, | think also of the el .venth of November See
 the four martyrs to free speech anu liberty, as
 they stand transigured on the dreadful scaf- | fold See the proud triumphant look which | lights their faces, Hear the voices of Fischer | and Engle exultingly shout for the cause they | loved doarer than llfel Hcarken to the
 warning and prophetic voice of Spies as he ! fOrctelis the time when their silence VIII speak ! in thunder tonesl Listen again to the last ap-
 peal of the noble Parsons -chokel Tn US very
 uttcrance.
 While flaw nnd order reigned supreme with | ln the jail on that sad November morning, With
 out the walls was beng enacted another scene. ! Alt the very moment when the devoted husband
 ana father was being prepared for eternity, the i faithful wife with her two children was seeking | admission granted 10 her the night beforc) 10 | obtain one last word anu embrace. Made des- | peratc by the insults of the uniformed ruiians f who surrounded her, she and her children were
 hurried away to the police station, and there ! o, shame on American manhoOd-by command
 Of CaptaIn Schaack, whom politicians have re- | gently returned to power, the almost heart 1 broken woman and the two children were i stripped stark naked This at the very moment
 the husband and father was giving up his life, l willing sacrifice to hIs convictions.
 On the fourth Of May, 1885, free speech was
 dealt stunning blow. On the eleventh of No
 vember, 1887, free speech was killed outright
 choked in the utterancc of one of it's noblest
 champions-and every sentiment of dccency
 was outraged in tho brutal treatment of Mrs. | Parsons.
 on the monument at the Haymarket should
 be inscribed in letters of fire these words:
 "Erected to commemorate the strangling of
 free speech and the shame Of an enslaved peo-
 pIe-"
 Chief Hubbard was interviewed con-
 corning the circular late yesterday after
 noon. He said he scarcely thought 1t possible that the Anarchists will attempt
 an outbreak on the day the statue is un-
 vailed He says every precaution will be
 taken, however, to secure the safety Of life and property upon that day.
