guard。 They threatened me and told me in very concise terms： 'Before
long you shall have your turn。 This is the freedom of that assembly in
which one declared his vote under a dagger pointed at him。〃'
＇136＇ In reading this all socialist and communists and other potential
manipulators of democracy would have taken and will continue to take
note。 Once the hidden combination can manage to invest all the
different； in theory opponent； parties with their own men； an eternal
control by a hidden mafia can now take place。 （SR）。
＇137＇ Such procedures set a precedence for 200 years of 'guided
democracy' in many trade unions and elsewhere。 （SR）。
