Anarchist Franchi caused the death of twenty

mart in this second outrage She went TO another
Anarchist a young fellow named Aschery rroW

if ne. in return for her "lovc' would execute
vengeance for the death Of her husband. He
accepted the offer and sealed the unhOly COM

He did not mean. however. 10 risk his own
neck. 50 he got others to do the work. No less
than cighty-cight were concerned in the plot. ana
forry-egh of them were fully cognizant of the
outrage. one Juan Alsina made the bombs. ana
two others. Molas and Nogues, were chosen TO
shop. each with a bomb To be thrown at re-
Iipious proresson But their courage failed
them and they sncakcd away, leaving the bombs
in the street. where the police found them. when
Aschery reported this to his paramour she was

"FREEUOW or TEACHING"

"The Springfield Republican" is afraid that the
colleges Of The country are cnslaving III. Thought
of their professors on economic questions. "The
Republican" we may add. is in n state Of chronic
fear about something all the time fear that
expresses itself In language of n more or less
atrabllious character. lis charge against the
colleges is evidently untrue. 1t cites Il Pro
fessor f. A. Ross. OF the Stanford University:
but as an authority the Professor is much like
Mr.. Bryan He says he is very sure" that
If any professors desired To champion hi
mciallsm they would "n many cases have to
give up their chairs There you have 1t. I'VE
are sure" I'VE believe" We maintain these
are the arguments which the whole brood Of
new financlers offer in support of theories
that coniravene the experience Of the civil
ized world Because one professor is very
sure" that a professor advocating bimciallIsn
would lose his chair. therefore American colleges
enslave the thinking Of their professors. Yet.
c,rlously enough Professor Ross apparently has
no fear Of losing his own chair for expressing
such an opinion Of colleges in general Nor do
we believe thai he has any cause for fear. al
though what he says is much more offensive 10
those who have endowed and who manage col
leges than any speculative view Of blmclallism.
as saying that professors Of standing say there
is a prevalence Of IAN enforced mental palsy on
burning economic questions. which. il duly sub
"stantiatcd should startc the country" Really:
but through what long line Of witnesses none
OF them heavenly. either have 10 travel 10
get to the starting point. II is too much like the
game of gossip they play al church sociables.
Then there is our old friend Professor Bems.
turning up again. whose retirement from the
University OF Chicago about year ago made a
great pOther at the time. II was said that he
did not have freedom Of teaching. and that he
was sacrificed 10 the Juggernau Of capitalism.
or course he didn't have freedom of teaching:
no professor ever did or ever will. until Anarchy
takes the place Of civilization Mr.. Jasper Is an
excellent man. who believes cOnsclcnliously that
'the sun do move" But. in the improbable event
OF his being on the staff Of some college. he
would not he allowed TO teach that theory. He
might believe that any other theory as strong
ly as he pleased. and no one would Interfere with
his liberty Of belief. But neither he nor any
other man can 90 into any Institution whatever
be 1t church. college or labor assembly-and
advocate doctrines and ideas opposed to the prin-
ciples Of the institution.
The colleges Of the country are not suffering
from an "enfOTccd mental palsy" They are
strong and vigorous tOrch-bearcrs in the path OF
knowledge. and it will need something more
