PREACHER GIVES CAUSE
And CURE OF ANARCHY
Rev. Thomas P. Holloway Says Hanging and
EIectroCution Are But Temporal Remedies
For the Scourge

sequently robbed Of the Godgiven
rights Of life, liberty, and the pursuit
OF happiness, there grows up in the
mind of the unthinlSing and llliterate a
hatred of law and order as hungry as
the grave. as bitter as death, and as
mrelenting as sin. And while anarchy
has sprung from old world conditions
it has, alas, been fostered by politico-
mmercial greed on one lRnd, and
laxity of evangelical religious zeal on
the other hand.
Punishment a Temporal Remedy.
What is the cure Of anarchy?
Hanging, or electrocution2 Suppress
sion of inhammatory literature? These
are only a superficial and temporal
remedy. The fundamental and prema-
nent remedy is salvation through Jesus
Christ. For while our souls reel in
horror at the cruel murder Of Presi-
dent Mckinley, and the assassination
of that innocent priest at the very
altar Of his church. we must have a
Christly pity for those who commit
such unspeakable crimes. Justice,
quick and thorough, must be meted out
10 them. but not In the same spirit Of
hatred which prompted them

These men are but the ignorant vic
tins of a terrible condition Of affairs,
which must be reached and removed.
