We Spurn the Advice of the Enemy.

NE of the principal illusions carefully fostered by the
capitalist class that there is such thing as demo-
cratic press that expresses unbiased opinions The illusion
of for news sake the first article in this deceptive
htany. The next is that editorial comment is mere refec-
ton of public opinion Thus do the capitalists try to con-
cea the character of all newspapers and periodicals.
Just the capitalist state tries to conceal under democratic
mummery its real class character instrument of oppes
sion against working the capitalist press concea
its class character.
When this reptile press the enemy preends to give
advice to workers how should conduct struggles
it always the better part of class wisdom follow just the
opposite
All workers should remember these simple fundamentals
when reading editorials such appeared in the New York
Times yesterday pretending to give advice to the defendants
in the Gastona Says this Times Square harlot of

Both the Times the New Republic and Nation liberals
pretending be greatly exercised the outcome of

power that being generated in defense of these victims of
capitalist justice Their role is to try to aid the class they
maintain the illusion of the mparabty of capitalist
justice and its whole renue of protuted judges prose-
cutting attorneys perued witnesses and boughtand pador
juries accept this advice of class enemies

bolts chained lightning shatter the bodies of comrades

We said in that and re-affrm today that Sacco

meddng of the liberals who time placed themselves

illusions the about the mpartaly of Fuller,

France, England China, India-everywhere- being
against this latest conspiracy of Yankee Imperialism
that cyncay in face of world protests murdered Sacco
and Vanzetti
That course will be followed to the end which we are
determined must be the liberation of these Gasona victims
We purn with contempt the nsoen advice of those whose
whole existence is consecraed to defending the murderous
capitalist system against the rising tide of working class
miltancy.
Not content with algnng itself with the liberals the
New Republic the Times calls to its aid that contemplate

published alleged letter by Bartholomew Vanzet protest

international Labor Defense to control of the Sacco

No pack of jackas no proving ghouls ever more
despicable than this.
In reply to this SANDER say to the Times the New
Republic and Mr. LORE Gentleman you iars And you

yet these and all the other working class martyrs by
bringing about the day when instead of workers defending
themselves in the kept courts of capitalism the capitalists
will for their crimes before the revolutionary tribunals
of the working class.
