Ing the suffering ones to acts OF violence
Chief among these is Emma Goldman, the
female anarchist, whose advice is of tho
widest description.
There was another meeting held in Cow

ternoon. The first speaker, whose name
could not be learned, denounced the
authorities generally. When a reporter
walked into the hall he was denounced by
the speaker, who said that the crowd
should rise and kill the representative of
the capitalistic press. He repeated the in.
junction two or three times, and several
times during the afternoon there was a
similar demonstration towards the re-
porters. The reporters acted very quietly
and took no notice of what they did or
said.
Later in the afternoon there were two
meetings going on simultaneously in
Covenant Hall. one on the first and another
on the second floor. In the meeting nm

by applause. When she had finished a
