INSPIRATION OF ANARCHY.
Fountain Heads from Which Streams
of Assassination Flow.
By
San Francisco Post.

San Francisco Post.
The dictionaries and encyclopedias define
Anarchy" specifically, as "a social theory
which regards the union of order with the
absence of all direct government of man
by man as the political ideal" Absolute in
dividual liberty is the basis of the so-called
philosophy Of anarchy.
The most noted e%xpounder Of this theory
in modern times was Pierre Joseph Proud
hon, born at Besancon, France, July 10,
1909; died at Passy, Jan. 10, 1866. Proudhon
was the son of a cooper; studied at the Col
lege of BesancOn, and in 1899 obtained from
the Academy of BesancO a pension which
enabled him TO spend several years of study
at Paris. At the outbreak of the February
revolution, in 1S4S, he threw himself with
ardor into the socialistic propaganda at
Paris; was elected a member of the Con-
Stltuent Assembly, ana founded the snort
lived journals lie Peuple QS4S-49), La Voix
du Peuple QS49-50), and lie Peuple de 1850.
Proudhon was imprisoned under the press
laws of 1882 and fled to Belgium to eS-
cape a sentence of imprisonment on the
publication, in 1858, of his work, DE la JUS
tice Dams la Revolution ct Dams PEglise,"
but was amneStied in 1850.
1t was not the theory of Proudhon that
governments could be destroyed by indi-
vidual effort or that the assassination OF
rulers would m the purpose OF his
propaganda; Proudhon was a misguided
visionary, but he was not altogether a fool,
and his energy was concentrated in the or
ganizatiOn of parties for the overthrow of
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS that emanated from
conspiracy against constituted authority,
and, being unsuccessful, were we'll within
the definition of treason.
Modern anarchy traces its higher prin-
ciples'' TO the teachings Of Proudhon, but
it's practical exemplihcation is the result
of the radical influence of Michael Bakunin,
a Russian Socialist and political agitator,
who is regarded as the founder OF nihilism.
Bakunin was born at Torshok, Russia, in
1914, and died at Berne, in 1876. He took
part in the revolutionary movement in Ger
many IL 1S4S-49, while Proudhon was en-
gagged In the French revolt against consti-
tuted authority. He was eXiled to Siberia
in 1851; escaped to Japan, and arrived in
England in 1861. While in London he
founded what was called the Alliance of
the Social Democracy, in 1869, which was
absorbed the same year by the Interna-
tional, an organization that has since re-
ceived it's baptism of blood in the MUIR
derous work of the commune, emerging
therefrom Will the title of the Red Re-
public" since shortened to the Reds"
Less violent. more polite in the e%nuncia-
ton of 1.-The principles of anarchy" but no
less dangerous to constituted authority
than was Bakunin, is Peter Krapotkin.

Sense enough TO formulate any Impressions
in that early and unspoiled Period, he must
have concluded tina he had got into a
bunny old World.
When Honey was a little older he ranged
through the Hotel. The Men gave him
Money and bought Candy for him and
taught him TO be Sassy. The Women told
he was an ipsy-dipsy Angel. n Boy
can learn more in a Hotel than he can in a
kindergarten. At the age OF four Claude
tolerated his parents. He had TO be Bribed
TO get into the Bath-Tub. When his Father
would get out of Patience and want to go
after him with the Red Slipper, then
Mother would rush in and do the Poca-
hontas Speciality. She would say: mo,
indeed. bad old Pepper shan't wallOp
Mommer's little S~kidjums."
Claude learned that he could work Nam
ma, so he became as fnicky as a ORA
matte Star. If the Toast was brown on one
side he wacted il Done on both sides, and
then when it was sent back and fixed up for
him.. he would let out a Wall because the
Waiter hadn't brought him a plate with a
Picture on it.

Mamma vould come TO Breakfast wear
1ng all her Diamonds, and she would expect
the entire Staff of Employees to drop ev-
erything else and run TO wait on Claude.
So Claudio got 1T into his Head that the
entire Population Of this Mundane Sphere
was put here for the express Purpose OF
humoring him and giving him Nickels and
telling him that he was a Pretty Boy. His
Mother and her Friends would discuss his
Beauty so that he could overhear it.
Claude. became Self-Conscious ard had the
Swell Head and began to look askance at
those who did not smell OF Perfumery. And
FOR fear that he would underestimate mis-
Importance his Mamma would tell him
several times a Day that he was too good
TO play with the Brats.
She dressed him as much like a Girl as
possible and had him wearing Curls and a
stiff Skirt when he ought to have been out
playing First Base.
The very Idea of permitting the Jewel to
mingle with the Lower Classes in the Pub
lie Schools gave her the Colly-Wobbles.
Claude grew up as a spirituelle dollhouse

These apostles of the gospel of anarchy
Herr Most, Emma Goldman, Abram
lzaak and the leaders of various groups
of Anarchists-are the disciples of Proud
hon, k and Krapotkin.
The supreme anarchs formulated high
sounding and eloquent theories, full of al
fusion to Magma Charta, the Cromwellian
regicides, the revolt of the American colo
MES and the French revolution-the Mosts,
Goldmans and Izaaks have interpreted
these declarations upon universal liberty
as Luchessi, Bresci and CZolgocz, and the
logical result of these filtered doctrines is
assassination of the persons in whom, tenn
porarily, powers of authority are vested.
Emma Goldman is quoted as saying that
she never preached violence; it was not
necessary that she should-no more neces-
sary than that she should place a pistol in
the hand of CzolgOcZ, telling him in 50
many words that with this weapon he must
Kill the President of the United States.
Originally IL was not the anarchiStic idea
that the assassination of a ruler brought
them any nearer to the success of their
propaganda-when the Nihilists Of Russia
instituted this method of preaching their
doctrine it was solely for the purpose of
striking terror to the hearts of despots."
1t was the opinion of these conspirators
that If they could inculcate the fear of
death, the ruelrs would grant the demands
of anarcry rather than live in constant APP
prehension of fatal consequences contingent
upon a refusal.
Gradually, however, the basest elements
of anarchy have begun to murder for the
lust of murder, without regard for the con-
sequences and, apparently, with no definite
Interior object.
The murder of the Empress of Austria
was q senseless act, and the attempt upon
the life OF the President of the United
States was wanton to the extreme of in
s~anity-the direct result of conditions of
modern civilization. which permit and even
encourage the utmost license of every ut
terance in fear that if liberty of speech is
curbed governments will eventually swing
back to despotism.
1t is the duty of the American people.
through their representatives, to define
once more what constitutes liberty and 10
mark plainly its boundaries, to the end that
in the exercise of personal right it shall not
infringe upon the liberty of other men.
