§ SIR W. EVANS-GORDONI beg to ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department whether he is aware of the extent to which the anarchist propaganda is being carried on in London by means of journals and other publications, wherein murder is openly advocated and murderers are extolled and held up as examples for imitation; and, if so, what steps the Government propose to take to bring the persons responsible for these publications to justice.
§ *MR. GLADSTONEThe extent of the anarchist propaganda in the Metro-polis is not considerable. The police keep themselves fully acquainted with the contents of all publications of the nature referred to in the Question, and will be prepared to take action again, as they have taken action in the past, should the published matter show grounds for criminal prosecution.
