The prisoners manner bad boen
growing moro and moro excited, al
though she made an ovidont effort to

succeeded and launched into discourse
Of the teachings of anarchy. She dc.
olared that anarchy did not teach mon

anarchist ring which would helr him.
There may bo anarchists who would
murder, but there also arc mon in every
walk of life who sometimes feel tho i'm.
pulse to kill. l do not know surely,
but l think Czolgols 3 was ono Of those
down.troddon men who 500 all tho mis-.
cry which the rioh infict upon tho
poor; who think Of it, who brood over
1t and thon, in despair, rosolvo to strike
9 great blow, as they think, for the
good Of their fellow mon. But that is
not anarchy. Czolgotz may have boon
inspired by me; but, If ho was, he took
tho wrong wey of showing it,"
