"It is useless to deny,
because it is impossible to conceal, that a great part of Europe--the whole of Italy and France
and a great portion of Germany, to say nothing of other countries--is covered with a network of
. . . secret societies. . . . They do not want constitutional government . . . they want to change
the tenure of land, to drive out the present owners of the soil and to put an end to ecclesiastical
establishments."
-- British Prime Minister Benjamin
Disraeli,
addressing the House of Commons, 1856
