THE ANARCHIST.

The anarchist is voluntary out

the laws protection. BY the terms of
his political creed he abjures all forms
of constituted authority and so he for
feits the right which a law-abiding
citizen has to appeal to the law for
protection. 1t is poor rule that only
works one way. The anarchist S
advocacy of murder and assassination
as political force. All other political
teaching employs only peaceful argu-
ment and based in the convention Of
it's adherents at least, on justice and
right principles. The anarchist doc
trine rests entirely upon the bomb,
pistol and dagger. For this reason it
is Unsuitable in morals and public
policy TO treat him as a criminal and
to suppress him as menace to society.
The popular apotheSm that error IS
harmless as long as truth is left Tree
to combat it does not logically apply
to the case of the anarchist, as is
made manifest by the history of this
and other countries. The anarchist
who breaches the gospel of murder
may not commit any crime in his own
person. but he becomes an accessory
persuasions have turned the heads Of
weak minded persons like Guiteau and
CzolgOSz and induced them to assassi
nate presidents of the United States.
The error" of anarchism. under such
a contingency, becomes as criminal as
murder, treason and sedition. \ man
who undertakes TO plot against the
government of the United States is
guilty of treason and is punished with
death. The anarchist creed is in it.
self a plot against the government. for
it breaches its overthrow, and by fore
ible means at that, and thus the an
archist belongs in the same class as
the traitor. An ounce of prevention,
by deportation of all who publicly pro-
TESS such a faith, is much better than
pounds of cure by hanging few an
archist murderers. The vile creed and
its supporters should be stamped out
like a nest of rattlesnakes.
1t is sincerely hoped by millions of
1aw-loving and law-abiding citizens of
this country that congress will speed

times that people go the banks and subtreasuries

that it may become worth premium.

1t often happens that women tuck their savings
