standing menace to the
evil doer, that point which inspires
the flow of patriotism from the
heart of the humble citizen; that
power which, when properly and
honestly administered, stands for
the protection Of all alike-the
belief in such an institution as this,
anarchy tells us is only a sMbeysfl-
tloN. It teaches that government
S unnecessary-that all govern
ment is tyrannical, and that each
man must into himself be the law
and its administrator, else liberty
does not exist. This is anarchy as
deprived by its advocate, "Free
Society" of Chicago.
The UNION is now and ever has
been a firm believer in free speech
and a free and un1rammeled press,
but the man or neWsp per which
advocates the destruction of earthly
governments among men, leaving
the citizen to be ruled only by the
baser senses OF his nature, with
no restraint and no fear Of a pen
atty here or hereafter; the man or
newspaper which would destroy
the belief IN an infinite power, take
from his countrymen tn ii Hottest
incentive to do unto others as they
would that others should do unto
them; that man or newspaper
which would rob humanity of
its hope, its comfort, in the time
of sorrow and afaiction-that news
paper should be suppressed and its
editor placed where his advocacy
of such a damnab.e doctrine could
never reash the ear of the outside
world. Such a man has reached
the point where he knows not the
difference between license and
Aberty-an enemy to every form
of organized society.
Yet as long as freedom lives,
with patriotism in the hearts Of the
people to maintain it, anarchy
shall find no permanent footing
upon American soil. Notwith-
standing this belief, founded in all
sincerity, The UNION hopes to see
the lines against anarchists and
anarchism drawn closer and closer
until no room is left for them upon.

FEW WORDS ON ANARCHY.

AEEW WORDS ON ANARCHY.
THE UNION has been handed a
copy OF "Free Society,"" an anar-
chist publication published in
Chicago by Abraham Izaak Jr.
The first sentence appearing in the
issue of the paper. handed THE
UNION contains a perfect definition
of anarchy and the views of its
motley array of adherents. The
sentence referred to contains these
words:
"The snbeystl1ioN of government
is the same as the superstition of a
Jehovah or the superstition of a
Satan.'
That is anarchy in its plain, un.
disguised and natural torm-no
God, no government, no law, no
responsibility for our acts in daily
life and no penalty to pay! The
UNION is glad that this exponent
OF anarchy has given the definition
Of its theory SO plainly. 1t makes
a plain admission that anarchy is
an enemy to the christian religion
and to every form of organized gov
erment. By its own words "Free
Society" admits that anarchists
regard the belief in the existence
OF q a supreme power a "supersti-
tlon,'' and the belief that govern
ments are a necessity as a tssuper-
stittion" also. Do away with faith
IN an infinite power and you re-
move the one factor which prevents
man lowering himself to the level
Of the brute creation. Anarchy
has no use for a1eligion which up
Tits mankind. Do away with gov
eminent and you do away with law,
order, and every penalty for crime,
leaving each man a lava govern
ment--unto himself. Patriotism
yanishes, there IS no such thing..as
love OF country, aid tie sanctity
Of the home-tlle true foundation Of
national greatness-goes with the
rest. Yet this is the condition to-
