A McKeesport, Pa, dispatch says:
''Two hundred Italian anarchists
celebrated President McKinlcy's at
tempted assassination at Guffey
Hollow, a mining hamlet across
Youghiogheny river from Buena
Vista. Beer, whisky, speeches,
songs and praises for Czolgosz were
the order of the day. This is one
of the largest anarchist groups in the
country. 1t was started and led for
years by Garcia Gainesville, who
now lives at Spring Valley, H., end
edits the Firebrand, the anarchist
organ of Chicago. When Bresci as.
sassinated King Humbert he declared
that Mckinley would be the next
victim of the anarchist plots. He
also drew up resolutions praising
Bresci, which were published in
Pittsburg papers. Since moving
away the Italians say he has still
been an active spirit in the Guffey
Hollow group
The time has come when every
State Legislature in the Union should
pass laws against Anarchism. Now
Is the time to act and prevent the
spread of anarchy in this country and
put check to the open demonstra-
lions that have occurred recently in
several States. We can't understand,
