Bi RXsfnr, ' r CduunHtoe. .: THIRD PARTY ANARCHISM The Ishmazute has excited the ire of some of the bosses and bossed of th,o new party movement by stat ing that the Acting. living force in it is the idea of getting something- for nothing, and Unit'the very lOutiils tions of it are laid in the principles of anarchism. That is * a serious charge to bring against a movement wbicb is heralded to tbe world as one pure ip its hopes arid legitimate in its aims. It is so serious a charge that the IsnutuTH would uot make it were ifc hot absolutely ’convinced of its truthfulness, , How is a political movement to< be judged'?'' TfM IstfirAZLiTx thinks it ought to be judged by its platform and by tie utterance of its leaders, if tbe evi b* couculsive; then the 'charge against the Third party movement will be held, by all reasonable, unprejudiced minds, to Be \ ' lAi.tr week the Ishmaeute pointed out plainly and beyond the possihili'' ty of refutation the socialism (hut is embodied in tlie St. Louis platform, 'ihal ia only one phase of the sug gestion of getting something for nothing which is held out to the de luded men that are going in that way They are going to need something more tliuu their supposed land “her itage,” to set them up in- the world Men need money as well as land in this work!; and just how they are going to get it is an important cou siderntione-■'This is ajiecially.theca e with lofeicncc to those people who .have nothing to sell, and no collater al on which to borrow. How are they going to get money t The question wife answered a few weeks ago by W. T. Christopher in an editorial paragraph in the Monte zuma Record, He is the chairman of the Third party executive cqjn'mil teo in the Third Congressional dis trict, and is, of course, one of the trusted leaders and %dvf*prs in ' the revolutionary movement. His an swer to the question is given in the -following paragraph, taken from his paper: “Wo udviee tho rich thi* country to read-the hiatofjr* of* tbe revolution in Fruuce. lusteud of asking loans, the' common poople will Book tho millionaire* with rifle*.” That ir the' Vfay in which Third party leader Christopher answers the quenMoli a* to how the man With' uoibing to anil and no collateral on which to negotiate loan* il going to get money. That jik the temper, that is the spirit, that'ill the- teach ing of the new light lenders, and it i* anarchism pure and simple. It tnbftUß: The cothmoli people axehiu-’ tutniiiH aud strong t let them ariu themsclve* and take what they want It means: Blood first, then plunder The IbhmakMti line rend the histo ry of French Revolution, and it ful ly understanda the purport and im port oi the Thia'd party leader’s ad vice to the rich men of this country. There ia in this anarchist’s sneering and threatening warning the defiant suggestion that the revolution im pending iu this country and impelled by others no hotter than himself, is to be a reproduction of that which desolated l>'iaiuq-ui the closing years of the 18tli century'. Its leadelk were atheists, like l’ost, and its gov ernment was organized anarchy. The king and queen were dethroned and beheaded. The nobleH who did not emigrate fell under the guiliotiue. The tumbrils bore away, one by one, Madam ltoland and all of tbe great leaders who dared to stand between the infuriated masses and their un lawful prey. Men whose industry and thrift had enabled them to accu mulate a sufficiency of fhis world’s goods, to pbt themselves above the grindings 6i poverty, were butcher ed and their property was confisca ted. Virtue was regarded as crimi nal, and .the possession of the means of a comfortable.livelihood led sure ly, to tins guillotine. '*• That-is the revolution to which Chaii tuau Christopher invites the at tention of the men of- this country who have a sufficiency to enable them to live above want. That is tTie revolution after which, he more than insinuates the new uprising of which he ie oue of the bright and shining lights is to be patterned. That this is just what he means is fully.established by the .oonoludiug sentence of tho anarchist p aragraph under consideration. “1 nstead of mdcipg loans, the common people, will seek the millionaires with ltSea.” Hut anarchist Christopher doesn't mean * the millionaires,” Million aires do not make loans to people,. They have not been in the habit of lending money, i lhetr investments are in stocks and bonds. They do ndtTrust to tW lender' mercies of uncertain securitise. Anarchist Chris topher means the men who "have money to .lend and whoi do lend ' money, on proper security,-to thoae who wunt it. Thoae are the men to. whom be refers. They are the-men whom the common people, in need of loans, are going to seek, under the new dispensation, not with satisfac-: tory but with rifles. The tuan of means is to be hunted down like an escaped felon kud his money is to be taken by force. Blood first, plunder next—then the Third party millennium.. . The same ideas, somewhat differ ently expressed, weri! embodied in tbe ; V-‘ .i; ‘ ". •' ' : ■ -i • - j.-w Upryngpe of Emissary Branch, delpr ofi'NMuydajf lakh! ' He' stated ihat. the people intended to' get ■ “relief”—meaning money, of course—and that if they can’t get it one Way they will get it another— that if ,they failed to get it they were “going to raise hell and a heap of it ” That is simply a different setting forth of the idea im)>odied- ib the paVftjfraph of Anarchist ChrAibpher. And. yariopsly worded, to suit the itching pul ins and illicit gread of each individual demagogue, the same suggestion, tbe same counsel of vio lehcri and anarchism' runs like a thread of bloody diabolism through all tbe speeches aud writings of tbe Third party leaders,. , r. From all Ibis, tbe Ishmaeutu has felt warreuted in reaching the oo'n cldsion that tile vfcry foundations of .this threatened revolution are laid in anarchism: and so it urges all true men, all lovers of peace, all friends of just and staple .government, all belpiyem in {bf...*fp>'dneM and iu vioWbilify of private property, to put lliemselvea in the line of resist ance to it, whether it come as An-' arehirt Chris tophw-Wriny witli rifles,' or a* the more indefinite but not less unpromising “hell” •of Emissary Branch. It would seem,, if there be tr point any. where on the hue, .be tween instigation and criminality where a rational Third party man would. s ( top lyid think, that that point hag uqw, -been .feacbedyT—Bpr -tft Ishmaelite. CHAIRMAN ATKINSON INTER ■& y ;'r f f VIEWED • Hon. W. Y. Atkiusou, chairman of 'he state demCerstio executive committee, was Niahe city yesterday, and was sten by a Constitution reporter in reference to the complaints being made of iutoler auoe among tbe democrats of tbs eeOoud ad eleveuth districts. “WJiatljavs you to aay about the re ported. aotiun of tbe party in aoma of the oouutiea in refustug to allow, those whs believe ill tbe Ocala platform to partici pate iu tlm democratic primaries J" he was asked. “I do not know that snob a thing has been doue, except fro m shat I have seen in the newspapers, no official attention’ having been called to it.
