As a corn louse and similar insects are driven out by the help of other insects that devour them and their eggs, so the Government should cultivate and rear anarchists in the principal nests of socialism, leaving it to the anarchists to destroy socialism. The anarchists will do that work more effectively than either police or district attorneys."[29] Has this been the chief motive in helping to keep terrorism alive? FOOTNOTES: [J] Kropotkin, in "The Conquest of Bread," p. 73, suggests that in the Revolution the socialists will probably hang the anarchists. [K] Pini declared that he had committed robberies amounting to over three hundred thousand francs from the bourgeoisie in order to avenge the oppressed. Cf. Lombroso, "_Les Anarchistes_," p. 52. [L] "The work of Mariana was afterward approved by Sola (_Tractus de legibus_), by Gretzer (_Opera omnia_), by Becano (_Opuscula theologica Summa Theologicae scholasticae_). "Pere Emanuel (_Aphorismi confessariorum_), Gregoire de Valence (_Comment. Theolog._), Keller (_Tyrannicidium_), and Suarez (_Defentio fidei cathol._) hold similar ideas, while Azor (_Institut. moral._), Lorin (_Comm. in librum psalmorum_), Comitolo (_Responsa morala_), etc., recognized the right of every individual to kill the prince for his own defense."--_Les Anarchistes_, p. 207. [M] Bakounin, when endeavoring to save Nechayeff from being arrested by the Swiss authorities and sent back to Russia, defends him on precisely these grounds, claiming that Nechayeff had taken the fable of William Tell seriously. Cf. _OEuvres_, Vol. II, p. 29. [N] Booth wrote, a day or so after killing Lincoln: "After being hunted like a dog through swamps and woods, and last night being chased by gunboats till I was forced to return, wet, cold, and starving, with every man's hand against me, I am here in despair. And why? For doing what Brutus was honored for--what made William Tell a hero; and yet I, for striking down an even greater tyrant than they ever knew, am looked upon as a common cutthroat." Cf. "The Death of Lincoln," Laughlin, p. 135. [O] Kropotkin tells of the effort made by the agents of Andrieux to persuade him and Elisee Reclus to collaborate in the publication of this so-called anarchist paper. He also says it was a paper of "unheard-of violence; burning, assassination, dynamite bombs--there was nothing but that in it."--"Memoirs of a Revolutionist," pp. 478-480. [P] In "The Terror in Russia" Kropotkin tells of bands of criminals who, under pretense of being revolutionists and wanting money for revolutionary purposes, forced wealthy people to contribute under menace of death. The headquarters of the bands were at the office of the secret police. PART II STRUGGLES WITH VIOLENCE [Illustration: KARL MARX] CHAPTER VII THE BIRTH OF MODERN SOCIALISM
