ANARCHY AND ASSASSINATION.

In our country the tendency is to be
liberal toward all religions, all philOsO-
plies, and doctrines that would advance
by processes of reason toward the real
izatiOn of any given ideals. We hardly
like to characterize the members Of any
cult as criminals or detectives. Yet now
and then a situation arises where some
hideous crime, like the assassination Of
King George Of Greece, appears 50 in
timately connected with social or po-
litical theory, that we find it hard to
maintain our accustomed liberality
toward the particular sect to which the
assassin belongs.
When we speak Of anarchy as a char
acteristic doctrine of a political sect, we
are apt to be a little hazy in our own
minds as to just what we mean. 1t is
probable that the people who call them
selves anarchists are also a little hazy
as to what they mean.
TOlStOy and the group of thinkers with
which his name is usually associated
frankly called themselves anarchists.
Yet Tolstoy was opposed to violence in
all its forms, for any conceivable pur-
pose. If he was an anarchist in any true
definition of the term, then the people
whose doctrines were a spring of action
in the man who slew the king of Greece
are not anarchists but something in
finitely worse.
For they are maniteStly detectives,
mentally, unable to reason al all or to
any purpose.
How should the killing 81 this king or
any other forward any cause that repre-
Sents any theory Of the bctterment Of
humanity? Men will not endure-win
assuredly neither pity nor embracc-any
cause that fills their minds with hatred
or fear. How should men bcfricnd the
human race by filling the hearts Of men
with fear or their minds with hatred?
The assassin Of King George slew i well
beloved ruler. The people who loved
him will rot love his slayer, nor the doe
trine which suggested his death. The
man was 80 clear in his nigh Office. that
his virtues cry out like angels. trumpet
%tOngued, against the deep damnation Of
his taking off"
In the Staying Of one beloved ruler The
assassin has merely set in his place an
other ruler still more beloved; ana as
suredly he has not made friends for his
theory of gOvernment-or no govern
ment.
The world can not miss the conclusion
that men who propose a program of
murder as a means OF righting human
wrongs, are both morally and mentally
defective, and as such are properly sub
ject to the same restraints to which all
other classes of the criminally and NOR
ally insane are subject.
If these men could reason they would
perceive that the killing Of q man here
and there is childish-to call it by no
worse name. They must also perceive
that the only killing that will avail must
be the murder Of all who are opposed to
them. If they fail to see this they are
lunatics; if they DO see ii. We must sup
pose that, Judged by their past perform
anccs, that il what they intend. On
either theory they are subject To legal
restraint the moment they announce
their belief.
