ing, and when it was in session tried
to dispense it, only to be met by a
volley from reyolvers and showers Of
stones. One police commissioner
was killed; others were seriously
injured In Prague on the same day
the police tried to disperse another

were seriously wounded In those

countries there is no resort except
force to beat back the honest thoughts
Of the people. They cannot see that
under the very shadow OF the throne
a light is emanating They cannot
yet distinguish that the best way to
control human hearts is by doing
justice to men and appealing to their
reason, and So the old tyranny and
trying to inAict their oldremedies end
only in bloodshed This is the age
