"HIGH PBTESTESS ~ OP ; J&A#QSY." Emma Goldman is commonly known as ; the "high priestess of anarchy." ■■■<, It was V stated that it was her violent speeches that ■? led the half-witted Pole Czolgoss to 'murder President^ McKinley in 1901,s while Bresci, the ; murderer '■'■ of the Queen of Italy, also : cam© under • \ her; influence while m/New : York. She-is '■ a : Russian Jewess ■; by *£birth; -i and has resided in America : for 5 the last' quarter of a century. As a "child she ques- . tioned '". all traditions ; and conventions, 1 g and & warfare t betweenherself and her parents, and later with • her husband, was constant and ;i vigorous. ■'; She left * her husband 20 years, ago, and went to work in New York.? Here she became acquainted with several anarchist % leaders,' and was soon the most aggressive of them all. :' For over 20, years she has continued her - revolutionist • and .propaganda activity. _ After the >.? attempted assassination t > of Henry C. Frick during, the steel riots of 1892, Emma Goldman fell under suspicion of w having prompted \ the < act, and 'was shunned ■:■:< by everybody. She continued her agitation, however, and 'in 1893 .-was c sentenced /to i a year's imprisonment for inciting the'striking S doakmakers in I: New York ,to violence. v Although she has been arrestee' over 50 [times, she has only been convicted ;", on ;* this : one , occasion, m She ', has ■, taken a prominent * part in the organisation of the Industrial Workers > of } the World revolutionary socialist campaign on the Pacific Coast. Collisions ; between the I.W. - ; and the police have been : > frequent, and in San- Diego, the headquarters of the agitation, the citizens have formed committees with the object of keeping it '; in'check. It- is just 12 months \ ago since, Emma Goldman was previously compelled to leave; San Diego after an angry crowd had tarred: and feathered her manager, and- branded the letters "LW.W." on his skin. r ■
