vienna, oct 1.-The police have fur
nished the press with an account Of the
recently discovered anarchist plot to burn
Vienna. Although many details ale sup
pressed, the plot is shown to have sur

the plot was Matched in and directed from
America and London, aud was to have
been carried out by NIennese anarchists

The plot was cleverly organized. The

THE NATIONAL AM I-ShLOON REPCB
LICAN CONFEREN CE.


We nublish this morning the call for the
National Anti-Saloon Republican Conference.
II will be held in Chicago, September l6, and it
is aleady certain that there will be large at
tendance The new movement undoubtedly
commends itself to that large and important elc-
ment which has long seen nd depiored the
ect of the drink traffic, yet which has not
been able to perceive the utility OF wasting Its
political influence altogether by joining an inn
potent third party. 1t is expected also, and
with reason, that many friends Of temperance
who have Joined the Prohibition party out of i'm
patience rather than because they expected to
effect any practical remedies by such action,
will 90 back TO the Republican ranks when they
realize that the conscience OF that organization
is fairly reused TO grapple with the rum power.
The irrationality of the PiohibitionlstS, and
iheir ext ems,n, may produce -saluttry re suits
if they are the cause of driving the Republican
puty to reasonable legislation On behalf of tenn
pcrance All cool thinkers must that the
ultra demands of the third party men are i'm
practicable and that to insist on them must re-
ult in stagnation by forcing people who are
not extremists to withhold thci assistance.
The eainestness of the Plohibitionists may be
conceded, but such concession does not touch
the question OF their rea>onitblcncss, and the
plain truth is that they are not reasonable, pre-
eIring us they do, to consider half loaf worse
than no bread The new movement depends
upOn the utilization OF the temperance senti-
ncut which now exists to obtain the best rem
rdies for the drink evil of winch the situation
admits. In effect the difference between the
Prohbitionists and the Ani-SaloOn Rrpubli-
cans is just this: The former are content to
throw away their votes for the sake of en-
uhaszing then de,ire for legislation which pub
lie opinion is not yet ready to giant the Latter
propose To make their votes tell Tor temperance,
by controlling the Republican party Oh behalf
Df whatever MEASURES OF iestilcton and alleva-
ton public opinion at any given place Is pre-
pared to sustain, approve, and make effective.
OF course the Mugwumps and Prohibition
organs oppose the Anti-SLoon movement. 1t
threatens the thild party with collapse. 1t L.
the practical versus the impractical Decided
gains for temperance are possible through It,.
No such gains c;m be counted on by means Oi
,he third patty. As TO the objection ialsed by
those who lear the new movement, that It's con
lerences cannot bind the Republican party, 1t
is hardly necessary to point out that any such
combined movement within the patty must IN
lluence its machinery. As n matter OF tact,
many politicians have been allied with the rum
power in the past, and the Usual tnldity Of the
class has led them TO oppose reioim at tir,t
TO overcome such opposition, however, 1t Is
1nly necessary to demonstrate the importance

launch Henrietta can sail all around the Ata-
lanta's launch Surprise. The spirit Of the chal-
lepge would perhaps find more adequate
expression in request for pistols and coffee
for two. This is not to say, by any means
that the Stletto and the Henrietta have not had
hard luck in their attempts to defeat the Alta
lanta in various regular races. Indeed it is
pretty generally conceded that their owners
have had just cause for complaint at the way
they have often been treated But the size OF
the wager and the belligerent air with which
the challenge is offered give the owner OF the
Atalanta an excuse TO decline to race, which
smaller sum and different style of commune
cation would not afford.
