An editorial in The Outlook responds to an article in the same edition of the magazine that provides a sympathetic account of the principles and actions of the Western Federation of Miners. While the writer of the letter agrees that it is good to understand principles the same way their advocates do, it is not always good to approve them. Opinions can all be freely advocated, but all practices cannot be freely undertaken. The Western Federation of Miners are free to advocate for anarchy, but not to practice it.
