the assassination of King Humbert,
makes people think. We want to ex-
terminate evils by force. We never
consider consequences. We are opposed
to government. which means political
tyranny. We do not believe In religion,
laws or individual ownership of prop
erty."
Under the tutelage of Esteve men are
trained in the business of assassination
and from Paterson they go forth as
propagandists of the gospel Of hate.
In the rooms on the top floor where
the paper is published the anarchists
hold their principal meetings. Here
they gather to approve and gloat over
the murder Of King or President and
to lay plans for future assassinatiOns.
Should an officer or suspicious person
be present the meeting resolves itself
into a political affair which discusses
conditions in Italy. but with none save
the faithful around anarchy and assas-
sination are the subjects.

The barracks at Warsaw, erected by
the Russian Cars to hold in check the
unruly Poles, are by far the most spa

walls facing the city could easily level

while the garrison maintained. num-

awe any rebellion, unless the conspira-
tons had aid from outside. The barracks
cover some 5000 acres in the highest
portion of the suburbs. The barracks
at Aldershot, England, are the second
largest in the world, having accommo-
dations for 10000 troops, and covering
1000 acres. The Curragh barracks, at
Kildare, in Ireland, are in ten squares,
each Of which has sufficient space for
an entire regiment and its officers.

THE incident of Warden Newman Of

funny story from the police.
Several years ago Warden Gourley

fifty days his name was on the list.

HoTsED OF ANARCHY.
Patterson, \. J., the Training School
Tor Political Assassins.

There are more professed anarchists
in Paterson than in any other city in
the United States. The silk city, of
New Jersey is the capital of all the
reds in the country-the seat of a.
kind of university for the training of
regicides. Here Bresei, the assassin Of
King Humbert, was trained and when
the assassin's knife sank into the breast
of Empress Elizabeth of Austria, the
secret service bureaus of Europe sent
extra men to Paterson as the fountain
source of anarchy. 1t is in Paterson
that La Question Sociale, the leading
organ of anarchy in this country, is
published, and to its columns the n0to-
rious Emma Goldman, the inspirer Of
the demon Czolgosz, contributes incen-
diary articles.
This crime-inciting paper is published
in the rear Of the top floor at 355 Mar
ket street. and here may be found its
