! IFtit is true that Spain has asked other
nations to unite with her in drafting a
code for united action in suppressing
anarchism that manifests itself by bomb
throwing. arson and assassination, the
| question has taken form that must en-
gage the attention of the world. Ger
tainly organized society, no matter under
what form of government, must protect
itself against these murderers. and abso-
lutte protection can be had only by out
lawry. We are told that it is unwise to
make martyrs of the anarchists. But
what shall men do? Give free rein to
these fellows and they will prosecute
their war of destruction until all peoples
are terrorized. 1t is the law of nature
that man shall defend himself These
| assassins are the aggressors; society cam
not afford to do less than strike back and
resist. Resistance can be effectual in
of extirpation of the common enemy of
life and property. It is absurd to say
| that cause which is founded in unlaw-
ful violence can be aided to success by
prescription. But it must come to this,
prescription or acquiescence. To wait
for the commission of overt acts is simply
to invite this criminal element to continue
its work and ''take the chances of de-
| lection.
