Police and cinilana are active today. There is a feeling of unrest among the bet ter classes and a strange qnietude among those who fraternize with the "reds." Police are everywhere and precaution is being taken to pre pare for emergency in the anarch ists' meeting tonight which has been flauntlngly advertised by Emma Goldman and others who believe that the hand of society is against them and that the bomb is the only cure for their imaginary ills. Emma Goldman has announced again that she will address the meet ing. The memory of Haymarket and Its bloody aftermath spurs every bluecoat to action and In far and near parts of the city the plain clothes man and the uniformed pa trolman are holding little, secret conferences and consulting as to the "auapejeta" on their heats. , . ' The woman anarchist has said that all the talk about the authorities de porting her Is rot. She brazenly declared that she did not feel bad over the dastardly murder of Father Hetnrlchs at Denver, and she ex pressed regret at the death of Aver buch. "This was a cruel murder," she repeats wlien speaking of the would-be assassin's death. .She said that Olga Averbuch has greatly Assisted the anarchists, the woman being one of the many female ter rorists, who are more bitter and more cold blooded than the men. An attack on President Roosevelt containing veiled threats calculated to Inflame the ultra-radical anarch ists of the country to whom the ar ticle was sent, is said to have been contained in a paper written - by Emma Goldman. Today the trend of these writings was made public and as a, result feeling is running high against all anarchists in gen eral and Mlsd Goldman in particu lar, The .poHse admit that serious, trouble la likely to result If the Reds attempt any demonstration. All the hatred engendered by the famous Haymarket riots has been called up by the attempt to assassin ate Chief of Police Shlppy, the anti clerical demonstrations, the recent activity of the Red leaders and more especially by the alleged tirade of Emma Goldman hurled at President Roosevelt. The last feature of the trouble has attracted the attention of the fed eral officers and Miss Goldman is today said to be under constant suf1 veillance of the secret service men. So far no authentic copy of Miss Goldman's article, said to have been writen only for the yes of the Inner circle of the anarchists, has been ob tained by the officers, but detectives are scouring the city and if a copy can be found and its authorship proved an effort will be made to lodge a charge against the "Queen of the Reds," against whom the po lice admit they, have to date nthln$ on which to make an arrest.

' , ,? POME VS. SHERIFFS AT TRCOMA GRBFEST TONIGHT (United PrM Laaitd Wire.) Tacomi. March t. Mayor Wright and Charles Drury, the two warring Demo cratic candidates for mayor of T acorn a, will meet again tonight at the Tacoma theatre. The mayor will be backed by squad of city policemen, Drury by deputies from the sheriffs department. Drury declares the mayor shall not have an opportunity of replying to the charges of graft and dishonesty; which 'i he will make against the mayor and If ; he attempts to disturb the meeting the deputy sheriffs will assert their power. Mayor Wright declares he will de mand an opportunity "of refuting any rrle with being a thief and grafter, and I have & perfect right to reply. If Drury says be pays for the hall I will say that I will pay my full share, or pay It all. but I demand a chance to reply to his charges, and It is up to the audience to appeal from the decision of the chair if the chairman refuses to al low me to be heard. "I don't believe any crowd that will assemble anywhere In Tacoma would deny any man charged with" a crime a chance-to reply to the charges. We are not going there- to create disturbance, but to demand our rights. The fact that Drury would deny me a chance to refute his contemptible charges In Itself is an Indictment of his honesty. No man would deny another a chance to be heard when charges are made against him." The meeting will be the second held by Drury, the ftrst breaking up lna rough house last Monday night, when the mayor's supporters stormed the hall and compelled the chairman to give Wright a chance to speak. Drury at that meeting made a direct and specific charge of graft against Wright, declaring that the mayor' trad received 6.000 from a paving contractor on one paving Job. A warm session is certain tonight. charges against his personal character and Integrity Drury may make and that In the Interests of fair play Drury has I no t-lght to deny him a hearing. He relies upon the sense of fair play of 'iwnosa present to dsck mm up in nis ae-i-1;. isand for a chance to defend himself. Policemen will be asked to preserve order and give the deputies a trip to the olty Jail if they interfere. "Mr. Drury is going there tonight to malign my character, ' said the mayor this morning after he had read Drury's statement that the mayor would not be permitted to speak, "and I have a right to appear and demand a chance to deny Ills charges and refute them. And the chairman of the meeting in all fairness must give me a chance.. It is a right any man always has in any public gathering, when he is assailed and charged with crlrtie.
