What Anarchy Costs Spain.


Spain loses her strongest personality
and one of her greatest patriots in the
assassination of Premier Carnalejas.
He had held office exceptionally long
for the head of the Spanish ministry,
having assumed control of affairs at
the most critical period since the war
of 1898. He was selected to form 2
new cabinet three years ago next
February. He had made many enc
resisted the extremists in Clericais.
Radicals, and Conservatives. Such q
position was bound to be full of peril,
both personal and political. In the
last few days of his life Canalejas had
to deal with the militant industrial un
rest of Spain. He vas in the midst of
a contest with great railroad strike
when death overlook him.
Yet in all this Canalejas was essen
tally democratic. He served national
progress no less faithfully than he
served his king. He stayed the APP
proach of a revolution like that which
drove Manuel out of Portugal, but,
stoutly as he upheld a none too steady
self champion of popular rights. If
he had come into power a quarter of a
century ago, he would probably have
removed to a large extent the condi-
tons which have made Spain IA hot
bed of anarchy.
Jose Canalejas Y iMendes, prime
minister of Spain, was selected to form
the Spanish cabinet in February, 1910.
He was leader of the monarchical
democratic party, which came into
power on the resignation of the liberal
cabinet headed by Senior Moret y
Prendergast.
Senior Canalejas who belonged to a
wealthy and prominent family, came
To the front in political life only in
1900 when he took leading part in
| the campaign against clericalism. He
had, however taken great interest in
politics as a student and public speak
er for many years before that. At
| the age of twenty-five he became A
member of the Spanish parliament,
attaching himself to the advanced lib-
eral section.
He became a member of Premier Sa
| gasta's cabinet in 1902 as minister OF
agriculture. He introduced many
reforms. especially in regard To the
working classes, and eventually Great
cd department of labor
When he was asked in February
| 1910, by King Alfonso to form a MN
istry the request caused great sensa
ton as it was the first time in the
history Of Spain thai an advanced
radical had been placed at the head OF

undergone many changes. but he had

White Slave Martyrs.

Another instance OF the daring IF
organized crime where there exists a
..gentlemen's agreement" or some
thing meaning the same, with the
police, is seen in the recent murders
of two women. Both were white slave
martyrs, slaughtered in cold blood by
those promoting the business, to seal
their lips. as Rosenthal was murdered
by New York police orders. These
women knew the secrets Of the white

slavers, as some of New York's gam
biers know that police and murderers
thieves and saloon men work hand-in-
hand for graft.
Last Saturday, at Georgetown
Conn, the stabbed and mutilated body
of woman was found. The authori-
ties are now quite sure that this vic
tim was a companion of Genevieve
Cavalier, the young girl white slava
informer who was riddled with bullets
by gang at Straftord, Conn, in
October. After the first murder this
second woman dropped out of sight,
but it is evident that the white slave
thugs hunted her down and ended all
fear of her testimony against them.
Like the first victim this woman is
believed to have come from Chicago.
1t is believed she was trying to hide
herself from the human bloodhounds
that sought her life.
The first murder was committed
October IS on a road opposite Putnam
Cemetery. when six bullets were fred
into the body IF the victim minute
after she had stepped from an auto
mobile in which she had been riding
with five men. They had trailed her
to Bridgeport, Conn, from Chicago,
where she had given the authorities
history of the white slave traffic. The
men debated whether she should be
disdgured for life with a stiletto or
slain. A vote was taken. She was
doomed TO die.
District Attorney Beers sums up the
case as follows: Three of the five
men alleged to have been involved il
the Staying of the stratford girl are
under arrest. The other two have es-
capped. 1t Is reasonable to assume
for the purpose of our investigation
that these two, fearing the slain girls
companion would understand the cause
of the murder and realize who it's per-
petrators were and tell the authorities.
decided to kill her also and silence
forever the tongue that could do them
the most harm. Also they had evi-
IDENTIFY been of the band delegated By
the Chicago white slaves to kill not
only the CAVALIER girl but also her
companion
An autopsy on the body of the sec
ond victim reveals that the woman
was dead when her body was thrown
into the water Extraordinary precau-
lions had been taken to insure her
death. Besides eight stab wounds
with a stilleto, a childs apron was
drawn around the victims throat.
There were also wounds in each tenn
Pile. The blade in these had pene-
trated the brain.
Dead men or women may in the
adage of cutthroats, tell no tales" but
in the case of New YorR's police
revelations. Rosenthal talks more eff
fectively dead than alive. Perhaps
the death blow of Americas arrogant,
defiant and merciless white slave
traffic may be given by Nemesis aris-
ing from the martydom of women who
tried to save their sisters.
