Roman Anarchists Win at Polls

New York, Aug. Sl,-A dispatch to the
Journal and Advertiser from Rome
says.
The complete triumph Of the anarch-
lists in the recent election to the Rome
labor council is causing alarm In gov
eminent circles. This is the first time
the anarchists openly contested against
the socialists. with the result that the
council stands with two anarchists TO
three sociOsb.
But more serious fact Is that all the
societies Of workmen which participant
ed in the voting qualified as anarchists
socialistlc or republican; not a single
monarchical workman appeared on the
list. This demonstrates clearly that
the entire working population of Rome
like that Of the other large cities IN
Italy, has completely abandoned the
monarchicaal party.
Leading newspapers seriously COM
ment on this. The secolo SAYS;
IF all the working classes OF Italy
have become socialists, anarchists. or
republicans. where are we to find de-
Tenders of the monarchy"
