Meeting of Anarchist sympathizers.


CHICAGO July 26.-FUlly 1000 sympathizers
of the eight Anarchists being tried before Judge
Gary assembled in West Txefth-street Turner
Hall, tonight. It was the first "red flag" meet
ing since the memorable night of May 4. and
there was considerable anxiety around police
headquarters in consequence. The entire force
there was held in readiness to answer any call,
and good-sizeG number Of officers were in at
tendance upon the meeting. Captain O'Don
nell was present and had about forty uniformed
policemen scattered inside and outside the hall,
besides many detectives in citizens clothes. But
the meeting was peaceable and the proceedings
regular. A. o. Bisoff presided. Speeches were
delivered by A B. Simpson, DR.. Ernst Schmit
and George Schilling. The remarks of
each were evidently tempered with due
regard for the police force that was
present, and were pretty strictly confined to
was summed up in a series Of resolutions that
were afterward carried with whoop. These
resolutions charge that the press has, since the
4th of May, with absolute unanimIty. clamored
for the condemnation and execution of the eight
Anarchists on trial, although they have
not yet been heard in their own defense.
The resolutions further charge that the
press has not fairly and fully published the
evidence thus far adduced In the trial, particu-
larlv the crossrexaminations of the witnesses
called by the prosecution In conclusion, the
resolutions recommend to the organized work
ers of Chicago to follow in the footsteps of the
Central Labor Union of New York, which is en-
tering the arena of politics for the purpose of
counteracting the repressive legislation that the
capitalistic class will, no doubt, attempt to rail
road through our legislative bodies"

The Mugwumps and the Prohibltionists.


The mugwump press rivals the Democratic in
the ardor with which it coddles the third party
Prohibitionsts. The motive of both is the same
"a desire to break down the Republican party.
The derision which has been directed from both
these sources against the anti. saloon movement
betrays desperate uneasiness lest that move
ment should streng then the Republican PARTY by
uniting it upon a practical temperance policy.
Temperance men who are also Republicans are
not likely to offer themselves willing tools for
the accomplishment of inugwump and Demo
cratic schemes.

The Fellowship of Foes

Capt McGrath, Clerk of the Supreme
Court, tells good story Of his war ex-
pelience, going to show that during
the war. at least, the world sometimes
seemed so small that you we're contin-
ually knocking against somebody you
didn't expect to meet Just after the
fall of vicksburg the Captains regi-
ment the Seventeenth Wisconsin, had
charge of a lot Of prisoners, most of
whom had manned the works immedi-
ately in front of them during the siege.
These prisoners were supplied with
rations under Gen. Grants order, the
same as their guards, but they didn't
always. or even generally eat alone.
The Union soldiers followed with them
to great extent, and, while guarding
them as prisoners, really treated them
as old friends, and discussed the Incl
dents of the siege with them with great
relish. Among them was q young Of
ficer named Saunders, belonging to an
Arkansas regiment, who became fa-
vorite in the camp of the Seventeenth,
and spent great deal of time for o
few days among its officers. He had
come OF a good family, was well edu-
Gated, and among gentlemen always a
gentleman. When he was paroled q
few days later, he eparted from his recent
foes, now friends, with evident regret,
taking with him new Yankee uni
form which his entertainers had made
up for him, to replace the tattered garb
in which he had been captured. He
went away never expecting to see his
new-found friends again. but a few
weeks latter, as the regiment was ap-
preaching Natchez early one morning,
q horseman in blue uniform, mount
ed on mule, was seen approaching
from the direction of the city. He
evidently did not see the bluecoats un-
til they were nearly upon him, andl
then seemed anxious to avoid meet
ing-a kind of conduct the soldiers|
couldn't understand at first. MS he worel
the blue. The soldiers thought theyI
must have caught spy, but the first
officer who came up identified Saun-ti
ders. Being among friends it was easy
to prove his parole, and he was soon
free again, and this time crossed the
river and went home to Arkansas

A shout greeted this announcement,
and Saunders, of Arkansaw'' was
promptly invited over. He came, and,
on invitation brought party of fellow
rebels with him. Then, as so often
happened both in the East and the
West during the war, men who had
spent the day in active efforts to take
each others lives, gathered around the
campfire in the evening as closest
friends, and then returned again each
to his post of duty to look upon each
as inidel dogs or hated giaours.--
