- ROFESSOR cESARE LOMBROSO,
1.-the eminent criminologist. speaking
OF anarchists in general in 1895,
. made reference TO the great liberties
permitted to the members of the sect in
America. At that time he made the
prophecy that the time would come
when the United States would have
more trouble with anarchy than any
-othsr country in the world. He said
nearly all the anarchistic crimes COM
mitted in Europe were organized in
America and cited facts TO prove his
statement.
Continuing, he asserted that the time
was coming. and very soon. too. when
the anarchists IN America would use
this country no longer as a mere haven
OF refuge IN which to plot. but would
turn their rancor against the very gov
ernment that had so foolishly shielded
them.
Lombroso thinks il absurd to con-
slider the crimes of anarchists due to
political incitation. because in the
makeup of every anarchist he has ex-
amined he has found indisputable evil
derce that the subject was either q
born criminal or prenataily defective
mentally.
Nor from the eminent Italians view

crime; ii IS only the name that is new
In the examination Of the old regicides

The man who commits an anarchical
crime would commit any other sort of
crime or violence &c he had not chanced
to adopt the tenets of anarchy. There
is, moreover, no more dreadful sort OF
criminal than the anarchist. for not
commit crime against the public in
the collective, against unknown mem
bers of society. as when he hurls a
bomb in a cafe, theater or a street
crowd, as Silverstein did in Union
square, New York.
The famous lawyer, Senator c. Spin
gardi, supreme judge of the appellate
court OF Turin and famous criminolo-
gist, says: 'In my lifetime l have ad-
judged the cases of more than 100 an
archists, and in that time / have not
found one who did not bear some phys
ical sign of being a criminal born. Per-
haps it was a misshapen head, dis
torted face, crooked eye. a physical
deformity or some marked irregularity
or deficiency that proved he was des-
tined to be a danger to society,""

first view the obvious character of
very brutal man. His face is distorted
and there is in his face one peculiar
thing known as stenocrotafa, one of
the molar or cheek bones being much
larger than the other: the eyebrows
are enormous. the nose is twisted to
the right side, the ear is like sea
shell and the jaw is SQUARE like that
of a dog. all these completing the phys
ical characteristics of born criminal.
Such a man is sure to stammer and
cannot escape a criminal life"
His case is one of heredity. as his
grandfather and great grandfather
ended their lives on the scaffold for
murder and robbery. Ravachol was
thief and forger before he was an
anarchist. having robbed a grave to
steal the jewels from g. body, and
killed an old man of 80 to rob him.
He beat and abused his mother and a
very young sister.
PM. one of the famous chiefs of
the Partisan anarchists. had a thief for
a father and an idiot for his mother.

r. oLLOwING the recent attempted
assassination Of the police in
New York and the message of
President Roosevelt declaring
measures must be adopted. and at once,
looking toward the suppression and
complete destruction of anarchy and
its followers, a viewpoint shared by
other public men who have realized
what g menace this has become in this
country In recent years. IT would seem
important and timely TO put before the
American public the fundamental facts,
at least regarding the anarchistic doc
trine, character and martyrs, together
with a possible plan which would crush
this dreaded body of criminals, which is
the greatest cause OF anxiety to the
head of every state.
The first and most natural question
IS, What is anarchy?
Anarchy is a political theory and
propaganda demanding the abolition OF
all institutions and instruments OF gov
ernment Opposition TO all govern
mental power and authority is the
common characteristic OF the various
q groups of anarchists, Proudhon, the
father of modern anarchy, having main
tained that social order would natur-
ally result from the ethical advance
ment Of the race and the reabsorption
OF the political function in the indus
trial aad. that external enforcement OF
order would then be unnecessary again
Anarchy may theoretically aim either
at TIE i.fettered government Of
the individual or at the realization of
its object in voluntary communistic as
sociation. while the practical propa-
Canda may be either peaceful or based
on. force
These motives and means vary
in America and Europe. There is
a recognized distinction between those
who accept the theory and those whe
assist in its revolutionary enforcement
Johann Most, formerly member OF
the German reichstag, for some time
published in New York city a news
paper, Die Freiheit, which was devoted
10 a very radical program. The exc
cradle propa ganda by deed, however,
has been the chief mark OF anarchy in
popular estimation, and one of the most
notable instances OF Il in America was
the famous Haymarket explosion at
Chicago on May /, 1856. In America
little has been done TO stamp out dan
gerous theories and violence of this
kind beyond the application of ordinary
legal processes and police supervision
OF suspects, but In most European
countries severe repressive measures
have been taken since 1888.
