THE ANARCHIST CULT.

c many fads in sociology have been sprouted recently and have grown when watered by the - crocodile tears of political demagogues that the aims of anarchy have been obscured. Judge Ma guires speech in Congress against the bill to ex- cude these assassins from this country has done much harm in misleading public opinion concerning them.
 Magulre declared them to be the Democrats of Europe intelligent and educated people, very desir able as immigrants and worthy to be welcomed to this country.
 From an ignorant such indorsement Of anarchy and anarchists might have been excused but as the Judge has informed The Call by letter that he is scholar and writer of eminence, com pelled to that his indorsement of anarchists and his desire to invite them the United States due to his belief in their principles of which he not be ignorant The principles of anarchy, often declared by them and asserted by Karl Marx, who incorporated them with the Internationals require the destruction of all government Their is against republics well against constitutional monarches and autocracies.
 They assassinated the Car of Russia and the Pres- dent of France, Prime Minister Canovas of Spain and Elizabeth of Austria, representing every system ot civilized government. They did these murders all of them cowardy, not because of hatred of any special form of government but destroy all gov ernment by murdering in succession all who repre- sent it. The President of the United States is con demned to death by their principles equally with the Car. Their plan often stated, IS to make govern ment impossible by killing all officers who represent it. They believe that finally no man will dare repre- sent government law, order, and that these will then disappear from the world and will live without l law.
 They began their cult long before their creed was publicly known. The murders they have committed during this century not confined to the royal per sons and others representing government whom they have attacked. Scores of others have been killed in such affairs Orsinis attempt to kill Napoleon III and the bomb throwing in the French Assembly. In this country have had but one outbreak, the der of the policemen in Haymarket square, Chicago, for which several were hanged committed sui eide and the sentenced to prison for life and were pardoned by Governor Altgeld, who seems to believe with Mcguire that these anarchists the Democrats of Europe and desirable people have at large in this country
 Every who believes in institutions, who knows that civilization exist without government and that civilization IS worth preserving, regards these cowardly murderers enemies of the human race. When they arrested and their records traced n nearly every they found to have lived in violation of the moral laws They have been thieves they have defed the marriage laws; they have been untrue to their obligations as sons husbands and fathers In their records is awful warning to the world of the conditions to be expected if they could murder fast enough to destroy government and abol sh law for they live in defiance of virtue, honesty and honor They must not be confused with the so- ciasts, who teach virtue and benevolence and peace and abhor boodshed. The anarchist stands by him self sworn murderer. The only literature of anarchy is to teach murder the first and highest duty of the anarchist.
 Their latest exploit, the cowardy murder of de- fenseless old by stabbng her in the back, perfect illustration of their principles. The wretch who did it gores in it and will be toasted and cele- brated as hero by anarchists all the world
 This bloody brings into sharp relief the prop osition to elect as Governor of California Judge Ma gure, the only who advocated in Congress the desirabty of anarchist immigration to the United States In view of his record in this respect it is injustice to him to suggest that his election would be celebrated by anarchists scarcely second in importance to the murder of Elizabeth o Austria.
