viii cite one case: The two Docs
one an ex-convict, were sent to the
lake front one Sunday morning to
report any anarchistic speeches made
during the day The lake front park
(now Grant park was crowded with
people, but nothing going on OF a dis
orderly nature. In the afternoon the
two DOCS spied the noted anarchist
leader, Albert Parsons, on a bench
reading a newspaper. Taking a seat
by his side the two Docs began
praising anarchy and abusing capital
lists. This caused Parsons to quit
reading and join in the conversation,
but his talk was mild and he could not
be induced to make threats.
Next morning, the two Docs ac=
cordfng to the story told me by Doc
Williams, sent in blOod-curdling re-
ports of the things the anarchists
were going to do to society and the
moneyed class, as told by Albert Par
sons. The excuse was that these
fiashy reports suited the agency and
pleased the clients who were having
the work done, and also gave the
detectives an excuse for rendering
big expense bills for drinks and the
like.
Lessons of injustice learned dur
ing my first month in the Pinkerton
agency on the anarchist case almost
caused me to throw up my position IN
disgust. But / argued in my own
mind that the corruption was sore
on the body polite which no one man
could cure-hence Knight as well re-
main and become educated in the
ways of free America, The question
might be asked why l did not show
my manhood by resigning and ex-
posing this crooked agency in the be-
ginning. Exposing it to whom, pray?
Not to the officers of the law, hope.

ment:
"On one of his trips to Denver Viii
liam A. Pinkerton told me that Tom
Horn was guilty of big gambling
hall robbery in Reno, but the agency
could not let him go to the peniten-
tiary while he was in their employ.

Siringo titles his book 1.-TWO Evil

anarchism. On the Haymarket case
he writes:

country, said that his nation was in
position to conquer the United States.
He declared that there were many
splendid landings on our eastern sea-
board where it was not possible to
concentrate our troops, even if we had
a. Suhc1ent number. in relatively
short time. and that it was feasible
for an invading corps to conduct its
operations at such point with the CO.
operation of their fleet No naval war,
he said. could be carried on success
fuliy against the United States without
at the same time inaugurating an ac-
ton on land. and he believed it a GER
tafnty that victorious assault could
be made on the Atlantic coast, tying
up the importing and exporting busi-
ness of the whole country. bringing
ABOUT such an annoying condition that
the government would be willing to
treat for peace
He doubted whether anything could
be gained in occupying for any length

Accomplishments Noted.

Speaking of the material and spiritual
accomplishments of the Palestine COL
nnists to date. Mr.. Brandeis said:
First came the revival of the Hebrew
language. We have long thought of
Hebrew as dead language. like the
Creek and Latin, but 1t has come to
life. A great part of the Jews in Pales-
tine speak 1T today as their ordinary
language of intercourse. Those who
have come from manv different lands
speaking as many different tongues as
| those spoken in the tower of Babel
have Joined in learning and speaking
the Hebrew tongue-not 'Yiddish, but
tho Hebrew LANGUAGE of old.
Education has ever been treasured
by the Jewish people. Civilization
without education is inconceivable to
them. And so they have established a
school system almost complete. But
for this war it would have been capped
with the establishment of the first de-
partment of the University of .Ierusa-
interrupted that forward step. and also
the opening of the Institute of Tech
nology at Haifa.
Had Carlyle lived" continued the
speaker. quoting the lines about hon.
oring "the toil-worn craftsman who
conquers the earth and him who is seen
striving Tor the spiritually indispensa-
ble." "he would have sent greetings to
those Jewish settlers Of Palestine. for
they have both titled the soil and have
sought to establish the principles of
democracy and social justice for which
we of America are now striving.
Se1f-Governing Colonies.
"In their self governing colonies, over
forty In number. ranging in population
from few families to some 1000, they
have pure democracy: and since those
self-governing colonies were establish
Ing true democracy. they gave women
equal rights with men. without SO much

And women contributed, like the men,
not only in the toll of that which is
narrowly called home, but in the soIu-
ton of broader difficult problems"
Among the problems which they un-
dertook to solve. the speaker said. was
