"ln Europe many good men have tcen

events In Spain again call our attention
wildly Ia tn . matter.
III We are 10 believe reports, there are
secret relations bet ween the anarchists Of
Europe and America To deal with the
anarchists properly there must be similar
relations let ween the police powers Of
America ard Europe.
Il would not undertake to say just how
these powers should be authorized to work.
but II would not be a difficult matter to
arrange. Every band of anarchists should
be kept under the closest watch, 80 that
all their movements back and forth across
the ocean would be known.
THE terrible evil of anarchism will have
TO be put down with an iron hand If society
is to be safe. Not only should there be
a union of nations in the matter, but laws
should be enacted for the %strictest and
swIftest of punishment. The people must
he educated 10 consider the anarchist as
the deadly enemy to society.
Il regard the case of the Chicago anar-
archists as the best handled instance on
record, all things considered: The punish
ment melted out was not swift, but it was
unrelenting, and its effect has continued
to this day. There were terrible threats
and predictions as &c what would happen
if the Chicago anarchists were hanged,
but twenty years have elapsed and moth
ing has happened. The anarchists were
awed and conquered. Another excellent
instance was the way the assassin Of McKin-
ley was brought to quick justice.
Il do not mean that would oondone
tyranny and oppression. Sometimes the
anarchistic sentiment, but in how many
instances lave great men been sacrificed
by irresponsible anarchists who were in
f1uenced by teachings that had no reason
or justice about them?'
Mr.. White will remain in Chicago until
Monday, when he will return to Ithaca.
n. Y. To-day he was at the University OF
Chicago.
The police nave been informed of unusual
activity among anarchist $, and to-day hey
detailed a score of detectives to shadow
Emma Goldman, @Comrade" Alexander
Berkman and OF Their reds" in Chicago.
Evidence of great activity, among the
anarchists, it is said, has been, found.
The attempted assassination of the King
and the Queen Of Spain on Thursday and
the reported discovery of a bomb plot
against the President at Portland, Ore,
to-day, reused The local police to the dan
ger of a similar conspiracy being initiated
in Chicago.
For many weeks before Berkman was
released from the Pittsburg w~orkhouse
word had been sent to Chicago reds
that there was to be a revival of the move
ment in this city, which was a thriving
hotbed of a%narchism just before the Hay
market riots.
II was learned by Chief of Police Collins
to-day that a Russian anarchist and reyo-
lutionist mot Gorky) is on his way TO Chi
cago, and will be in the city about June 9,
when a series Of secret anarchistic meetings
is to be held. Chief Collins would make
known nothing concerning the expected
visitor, except that he was a we'll known
red" agitator and had gained prominence
in Russia. The police are preparing to head
the man off when he arrives at the limits
of Chicago and turn him back.
PORTLAND, Ore, June IA plot to Kill
President Roosevelt was discovered here
to-day by the arrest OF a Pole; who was
CndTReu WIN dtSt III Oi iNtooiotic.
Investigation Of the affair by local de-
~tectives revealed a colony of Russian
nihilists, who we're merely awaiting the
accumulation of a sufficient fund to send
a delegation to Washington to put their
plot into execution.
The idea on which the party worked was
to send five of their number to the capital
of the country, ostensibly to present a
petition to the President. The party ex-
pected in this way to gain admission to the
White House and il was there the assassina-
ton was to take place.
The Pole, who cliims to have been threat
ened with death by several Of the plotters
and was arrested for assault, was acquitted
to-day, and it was then that the detectives
learned the alleged purpose Of the organiza-
ton.
Friends of the Pole informed the police
of their e~ulogistic praise OF the assassin
of President Mckinley and finally OF their
desire for the death Of President Roosevelt.
Detectives have been put on the case
and will make arrests il sufficient evidence
is obtained against the gang to warrant It,
