ANARCHISTS EXCLUDED.


The law of March 3, 1903, which provides that
who disbeeves in or who is opposed to or
gained government shall be permitted to enter the
United States" has been sustained by the supreme
court To this decision every law-abdng and loyal
citizen will give his hearty consent. The decision
of the supreme court was brought on by an appeal
from the action of the New York immigration au-
thorities, who ordered the deportation of John
Turner, the English anarchist whose avowed mis-
sion to America was to advocate the rights of
anarchy. The bold efrontery and defiance of these
no-goyernment schemers, coming so soon after the
assassination of esteemed and revered Pres
dent Mckinley by one of their satanic members, is
without parallel in the history of our country
Anarchy originated in heaven, when the proud
prince of darkness rebelled against his Creator.
The same spirit that prompted Satan to rebel domi
mates all anarchists, who are his loyal children
Viewing the case impartiay and impassionately, it
is strange to find, in this blessed land of liberty
law and order, persons and prominent journals
who denounced at the time the action of the immi
grafton authorities as ''un-American, high-handed
tyrannical and stupid" These words are culled
from Mr. Shepards address at Cooper Union in
New York The Philadelphia Record, commenting
on the action of the immigration authorities, said
when the penalization of thought has once be-
gun there is knowing where it will end. Hav-
ing prescribed theoretical anarchists. it would be
but short step to the prescription of theoretical
monarchists or free traders. The protection of the
common law, involving publicity, jury trial and
judicial inquiry having been withdrawn from i'm
migrants during the first three years of their resi-
dence, the period of outlawry might readily be
tended to five, ten fifty years. The law has
given to the secretary of the treasury and his
derlings tyrannic powers, to be exercised their
caprice may direct"
This objection is answered by the very fact that
the followers and sympathizers of the anarchist
we're allowed to appeal his case to the supreme
court How any loyal, liberty-loving American
could defend those fevolutionists and desperadoes
who, failing to reach their satanic aims in their
own country, fly to America to save their necks
from the halter, is beyond comprehension. These
emissaries of Satan, who are branded outlaws and
sworn members of secret societies, have only
aim in life, and that is the destruction of all gov
ernment To propagate their nefarious and satanic
doctrines they pretend to have constitutional rights
Men need government Anarchists say no, govern
ment is curse. The people say we have a right
to demand government A few unprincpled, crazy
demagogues cry out that government is an injus-
tice. Without government say the people, there is
no life or liberty With it, say the cutthroat, Sc
cret, oath-bound anarchists, the liberty seek is
dead. Therefore it is our sworn mission to murder
the heads of the government and, as far as pos
sible, to destroy the government. This is
aggeration of the anarchists mission, aim and view
and our government is to be congratulated when
it serves notice European anarchists that on
American soil their agents will find no resting
place. True American blood boils with indignation
at the monumental cheek of these parasites and
monsters in demanding the right and liberty of
speech to tear down what American thrift and
genius have built up. This, too, whilst the nation
was mourning the death of its president by of
their members.
Take time to think There is no thought with
out time, there can be no wisdom without silence
