BY-AND-BY LAWS FOR TRAFALGAR SQUARE.

(_WHEN MEETINGS ARE HELD IN "TIMES OF POLITICAL OR SOCIAL CRISES_.")

1. Cabs, omnibuses, carriages, and pedestrians will be expected to

keep clear of the space occupied by the Demonstrators.

2. To prevent destruction of glass and removal of property from shop

windows, tradesmen will be expected to put up their shutters several

hours before the holding of the meeting.

3. No particular notice will be paid to the transference of property

from one leader of labour to another. If done by stealth, it will be

accepted as a proof of secret Socialism.

4. No objection will be raised to combats amongst the Demonstrators,

with the restriction that no Government property is injured.

5. As the maintaining of the road is a matter of contract,

Demonstrators wishing to emphasise their opinions, must bring their

own stones.

6. As a good deal of property is expected to change hands during the

various proceedings, an application with a description of lost goods,

and photograph of supposed thief, can be addressed to the Chief

Inspector of Police, Scotland Yard.

7. These regulations (which are tentative) will be in force until

after the next General Election, when a fresh series will be

published, to be followed by others as occasion may require.
