Dr. 'Davidson Buchanan, at TTnlon Hall, Declares Colossal Riches and War-Makers Are Among Anarchists of Country. That neither Tolstoi nor the men who blow up the rulers of nations use the firebrand or the assassin's pistol are real anarchists, "but that the real anarchists are men who hold the land and control its use, corner the markets, pile up colos sal fortunes, oppress the masses and cre ate ware, was declared by Dr. Davidson Buchanan yesterday afternoon In a lec ture in Union Hall, on Grand avenue and East Pine street. His topic was, "The Blight of Anarchy Who Is the Anar chist?" He said he would point out the anar chist in places not before suspected, and that when the history of the preeent cen tury Is written a hundred years hence. It would be recorded as a century of sav agedom and of barbarians, reveling In cruelties worse than those practiced In the 13th century. He said In part: It will be admitted that' the home Is the most sacred and hallowed place on . the earth, and that the man who would wreck the home Is a real anarchist. A short time ago a man went through ths Bouth and gathered up the cotton crop, stopped the wheels of the cotton factories and caused famine and death all over the land. It Is estimated that he caused the death ef 60,- 000 people. Was not this man an anarchist ? Was not his work mere extensive than that ef the man with, a sistol or the firebrand, yet we honor the man who caused all this destruction of life and want, and hang- the man with the pistol. That is our way of doing things. Whs is the real anarchist? 1 have no quarrel with the man who cor ners the breadtMfr and causes famine and want in the lann. You and I' weald do the came thing if we had the opportunity. I condemn the conditions that make suoh things possible. The assasstq at the noma is the real anarchist, and this U the man we honor. There have been 1ft rubtra Irilled and We have lost Uurse Presidents, bat notto ins- resulted. No, my friends. It Is not the bomb-thrower who is the anarchist. We honor the man who steals a million of money and murders 50,000 Innocent men, women and -children and hang the poor ignorant assassin. Friends, we are just at the dawn of civili zation only. During the early centuries there were some killed, but not so many as we kill now. The chief recent glory of this country was In the magnificent fleet we sent around the world to show how savao-e we are and demonstrate our ability to kill other people. In Kurope today there are 4.000.00 armed and trained men ready to begin killing- one another at the word of command.. This is the century of scientific killing. The war-makers are the anarchists. The South African war waa a war of the money power. More than 250.000 men were killed in that war between England and the farmers there. . But for the riches of the mines there would have been no .war. Our Civil War was a war caused by the vested Interests. The politicians of this country are anarchists of the worst sort. According to the revised theology the devil has been voted out of the churches, but. my friends, we ,rnay not have a devil now. but some body is doing his work. I think the devil has gone out of business because he found so much competition in the world. He could not compete with us. Reform of these con ditions is hot the work on any short time, nor will it be brought about by violence or murder. It will simply be & matter of evo DOCTOR ESCAPES DEATH AUTO SMASHES INTO RAILROAD CROSSING GATE. ACTOR COMES TO GRIEF Installment-Plan Sparkler Is At tached fcy Chicago Firm. Harry Fox. a vaudeville actor who ap peared at the Orpheum during the past week in a -potpourri of mirthful manner Isms experienced, the stern realities of stage life yesterday when Deputy Con stable Klernan descended upon him and attached the diamond ring that graced the Index finger of his left hand.

From Running Head-On Into Passing Freight Train on Morrison. Traveling in his own automobile at a speed estimated by various witnesses as between 10 and 15 miles an hour. Dr. A. "W. Moore, wltK offices in the Dekum building crashed into the railroad cross ing gate at Bast Morrison and East First streets yesterday afternoon and narrowly escaped colliding with a freight train. The freight was passing at the time and the machine was only paved from a col lision by the end of the gate getting under the machine and catching against . MAKE! OF 231 . WASHINGTON ST PORTLANf oftxoort. HENS CL0TNi the frozen ground holding the auto less than a foot from the passing cars. Dr. Moore, who was alone in, the ma chine, traveled at a fast clip across the .bridge. While he was two blocks away from the crossing the gates were lowered and before he was within a block the train was passing. 'He struck the gate with such force that it was snapped clear of its support, although it is well braced. Gateman John Clint was on duty at the time. Dr. Moore , declared that the gate was covered .with snow and of the same color as the snow and that he could not see it. He said anyway he would have stopped, before hitting the train, and that he I J merely touched the gate. ' F. TV. Burkhardt, night gateman. said that last Thursday night an automobile i dashed through the gate and carried It j away. It was traveling so fast it was impossible to see the number. Burkhardt ' further charged Policeman Murphy, on J duty at East Morrison street, would never 1 arrest speeders he had actually caught , between the gates.
