Il am fattered," said the Galleani an
archist. why do you want me?"
ITO write of the immediate future"
what is in the air?"
well, 4 can trust to your discretion.
We are preparing another bomb plot
something like San Francisco"
Listen" replied the Bresci man, "you
people are crazy. If the liberty OF the press
and speecf>is further suppressed it is your
fault"
"Well, that is all there is to it. You are
very stubborn"
do you intend really to accomplish this
plot?"'
mot now, because we cannot find the
material for another job"
What GalIeani Taught
In School of AnarcLism
Roberto Ella, follower of Galleani and
particular chum of Andrea Salsedo, was
deported some time after the Wall street
explosion. The chances were that it was
he who wrote the leaflet plain Words"
found on the streets and in mail boxes the
day Of the Wall street explosion. We had
every evidence that he even printed the
leaflets. But it is quite another thing to
gather the evidence that jury would de-
E,and.
But to get back to the man Galleani, we
find that he conducted something of
school at Barre, VT. There he taught an
archy as he saw it. His pupils when asked
to define anarchy would invariably reply
something like this.
Anarchy is unimposed government;
society literally constituted. Any indi-
vidual can donate to the society his intel
ligence, his knowledge and his work and
he will get in return his necessities
What is society?"
Mankind"
Cant you be more specific regarding
anarchy? Will it not do away with all
forms Of organized government" .A
Anarchy is the philosophy Of opposition
to that form of violence known as organ
lied government"
Galleani taught his pupils that he en-
bodied all the philosophy Of such of his
predecessors as Kropotkin, Malatesta,
Herve, Bakunin and Ferrer, and topped
all this erudition off with his own superior
ity OF intellect.
II am the most intellectual man In
America" was one OF Galleani's modest
statements.
/ believe the man was sincere in his
belief. / seldom came into contact with
a person quite so superior.
Galleani encountered encouragement
along with the rest of u.s. Watched as he
was, he lacked freedom OF action. Some
time before his deportation we asked him
whether he did not think he was taking
upon himself a rather difficult task when
he essayed to bring about such radical
change in the American Government.
II do not admit the authority OF Gov
ernment," he replied, "but do think 1t is
almost impossible to. remove this Govern
ment at present, because society, Ia not In
condition to live without government.
Whenever men will all be persuaded. then
will come better form OF government
individnalism, anarchy. But mankind 10
too stupid now"
This remarkable egotist was born in
vercelli, in the province of Novara, italy
He studied law i'm the University Of Turin
His social and political theories expanded
faster than his knowledge OF the statutes
so instead OF getting his degree he was
banished by the Italian Government to
the convict settlement OF Pantelleria.
The rocky shores and the forlorn isola-
tion OF this bit Of land did not restrain
Galleani one night from putting to sea In
a small boat while the guard was suffering
from careessness. The next land he
stepped upon was Egypt. He came to
America in 1901, when about 80 years old
