THE ANARCHIST.

France has decided to prosecute all incite-
ments to commit dynamite outragcs and all
Qualifications of crimes. This will leave the
anarchists nothing to do but drink. Pitts
burg Dispatch.
The French government has at last
aroused itself to the fact that anarchy must
be grappled with and throttled before it be-
comes strong enough to throttle the rcpub.
lic.-Kansas City Journal
France appears to be in earnest this time
In it's decision to repress the preaching and
practice of anarchy within its jurisdiction.
If oth@ countries will only take common
measures against anarchistic outbreaks
bomb outrages would become much less
frequcnt.-Omaha Bee
This new and drastic legislation in France
against the anarchists cannot be completely
effective unless other nations take the same
course If those French conspirators be en-
abled to transfer their field of operations to
Germany, Italy and England Frances cru
SADIE against them will not be altogether
successful.-St. Louis Globe Democrat.

that a gentleman above reproach occupies the
