In 1855, at Geneva, Bakounlne founded

Ing address to the congress OF the In

''BFethren:-I come 10 announce TO
you o new gospel. This gospel admits
OF no half measures or hesltations. The
Old World must be destroyed and re-
placed b. a new one. The lie must be
stamped ont and give way to truth. Il
Is our, mission 10 destroy the lie. Tho
FIRST lie - God. the second lie Is riBbt.
Might invented the fiction Of right 10
Insure and strengthen her reign. Might,
ms friends, forms the sole groundwork
Of soclety. and should be IN the handa
OF the majority. II should be In the
hands OF tii0se nlne-tenths OF the hui
man race whose Immense power has
been rendered subservient TO the re-
malning tenth by means Of that lying
fiction OF right, before which sou are
accustomed 70 bow your heads and TO
drop you. arms. once penetrated with
the conviction OF your own might, you
will be able TO destroy this mere notion
Of right. And when you have freed
your minds from the fear OF God, nnd
from that childish respect Cor the fiction
OF right, then all the remaining chains
that bind you, and which are called civ
illsation. property, marriage, morality
and Justice, will snap asunder ike
thread. Let your own happiness oe
your only law. But In order TO get this
law recognized you must destroy every
thing az st now exists, the good With the
bad, for II but an atom OF this old world

These doctrines are proEessed by on
organization which has been in exist
enee 70. Just thirty years. which has
destroyed the lives OF two sOvereigns, as
well as attempted those OF a number OF
others. and which. in spite OF all sorts
OF special explanation and concerted
movement on the part OF the various
European powers, IS stronger and
greater menace TO society than ever.
Few people are aware of the fact that
Just In the same way as the police have
albums of photographs which they de-
scribe as their 'rOgues' gallery" In the
same way do the various anarchist
lodges in every capital Of the old world
and In many OF the great cities, such as
Lyons, Marseilles, LIeipsic and Milan,
have collections OF photographs contain
ing the portraits OF all the crowned
heads of Europe, Of the members Of
their families, OF the great dlgnitaries
and officials, and, last, but not least, OF
the Police officers, In each instance the
peculiaritles OF appearance and OF char
acter being specially noted, while the
fayorite disguises of the police are de-
scrIbed. IN one word, the anarchists
have their couEter-pollce. which Is every
bit as well equipped and thoroughly or
ganlzed as that which has as Its special
mission the hunting down OF their
movements Let me add that these
'.rogues' galleries" OF black books, Of
the anarchist lodges are open 10 the in
spection OF any one ready to serve the
cause In such manner as the murder
OF Empress Elizabeth.
In conclusion, may state that the In
formation described above about the
anarchls. movement IS obtained, so TO
speak, from headquarters, aad perhaps
the most striking evidence OF It's au-
thentcity is the fact that Professor
Dragomanoff had taken me round to
the various secret printing offices OF the
revolutionary manIfestoes and OF the
Narodnya Yolya at Geneva on the at-
ternoon that preceded the memorable
night which l spen: with him at the
Beaurivage Hotel.
