Anarchy and Plutocracy.

There is a society that is almost
| world wide in its ramifcatiOns. 1t has
its members wherever there is oppres-
sion, discomfort and squalor. Where
ever men are in want and starvation
rears its front will be found the red
flag of Anarchy, and men with narrow
foreheads and bestial instincts will be
found touching elbows under its folds
with those of keen intellect, generous
impulses and broad conceptions of what
is Just and right. Where laws that
should be a protection to all alike are
perverted to enslave one class of citi-
zens and increase the power Of another
class; when millonaires control our
their other private assets; when it be-
comes evident that our courts are but
the instruments by which the mining
or railroad baron records his DEGREES;
when men see that they are practically
driven to work at the behest of the
employer-iti is not wonderful that the
more mercurial should despair of any
relief by means of law. and turn their
backs upon all law. From their stand
point law is the cause of their undolng.
1t is the fiat of those who eat them and
their children. 10 proportion as mis-
cry, oppression and poverty increase
throughout the world, in that proper
ton will the followers of the red flag
| increase.
Wealth shudders at the specter of
| its own raising. Men do not attempt
to overthrow an existing state of socie-
ty unless there is terrible pressure be-
hind them. and as this pressure in
creases and extends to greater numbers
the danger to the existing order be-
comes more acute.
All talk of expatriating Anarchists

the limits of a penal colony, is nom

conditions the same, aud tomorrow a
greater crop would spring up. If we

the law is a villain of the deepest dye.
An agreement among gentlemen In
violation of an express statute Is su-
perior to the law and dispenses with
its operations in that particular case.
If bomb is thrown at an Anarchist
meeting and policemen killed, drag
net is got out and a half dozen men
hung and imprisoned who were merely
exercising the right of free speech in
an Incorporate manner. If a strike is
on, and it becomes necessary to secure
troops, peaceable and unarmed citi-
zens are shot down in cold blood while

sheriff who does the bidding of the
mining barons without warrant OF law,
and his praises are sounded from ev-

The truth is the Plutocratic Frank

| left to fight it out, and no one else be
injured, society would be a mere spec
tator. The great middle classes have
interests, however, that they cannot
permit to be sacrificed without strong
effort to save them. When the Pluto
crat is shorn of his illegitimate advan'
tages the red flag will fall to the earth
for lack of hands to hold it aloft. Even
Herr Most, when he has acquired a for.

of Anarchy, and with the instinct of a

The time is not far distant when the
hand of the plutocracy will either be
raised or there will be an explosion.

selves to be held up and robbed, though

refuge of a scoundrel is patriotism,
says DR.. johnson, and in the light Of
passing events no one can successfully
dispute the Doctors position.

What The Elections Show.

elections, portends the ultimate tri-
umph of the Democratic party. If any
attention is given to the lessons of the
past four years. 1t shows that the
South and West are drawing together
on lines laid down in the Chicago plat
form, and because of identity of inter
ests these two sections will act in uni

posed to get in the way will be run

HER MODEL HUSBAND.

1t was at a womans luncheon. and
they have been exchanging opinions
in regard to the husband question,
both as whole and with particulars.
By the time ice cream was served the
discussion had grown quite heated,
and the hostess was beginning to look
anxious. At the top of the table the
woman in the chiffron vest and her
companion in the trimmed gown were
at daggers drawn.
"Well, l don't care what any one
says, my husband is as good as they
make them," said the woman in the
chiffon vest eNcitedly. "He always
rocks me sleep when l have sick
headache, and he gets breakfast when
the cook is away, and he always gets
up in the night if the baby cries"
She glared at the woman in the tri"
med gown triumphantly, and she in
turn glared back and took up the par
able of speech.
"Well, my husband" she remark
ed, with strong accent upon the pos
sessive case, "never does any of those
things. should be sorry to see him
do any of them. l detest man who
steps over into his wife's province
But he always looks after the furnace,
and l never have to worry about the
coal bill"
The woman in the chiffon vest
smiled disagreeably, and the hostess
was about to interpose when the pref
ty woman at the foot of the table spoke
up.
"My husband does all the things
you have mentioned" she said sweetly,
land lot more. When we have no
girl he washes the dishes and sweeps,
and I've never had to get dinner once
since we've been married.
~ always knew he was going to be
lovely that way because he said so lit
tie about it. ! never had much faith
in the men who talk so much. When
we were first married, we talked about
it, and he spoke beautifully. Il don't
say I'll always do it, Jennie he said
the first time was without girl,
'but I'll always help And he's been
better than his word right along. Last
night he even made the porridge SO it
would be ready for breakfast this
morning, and every morning. he brings
me cup of coffee before l get up
With the smile of a conscious con-
queror, she toyed with her menu card
and smiled sweetly at the angry wo-
men at the other end of the table.
They were speechless, but the woman
in the gold trimmed glasses who sat in
the middle gave her keen look and
smiled too.
"Something has got to be done for
the protection of us poor spinsters,"
she said merrily, and if any one else
tells husband story shall relaliate
with tale regarding wonderful cat
which l possess. But, first, before we
quit the subject, let me ask a question.
iHow long," turning to the pretty wo-
man, "have you been married?"
The pretty woman blushed vividly.
"Nearly two weeks" she stammer-
ed out timidly. And the other women
laughed in the unfeeling manner they
| so often affect,
