W hc gnitjj storiait. ASTORIA, OREGON: I'HIDAY FEHRUAKY IS. 16S3 IX THE SOUDAX. Aiii eyes are turned to the conflu ence ol the "White and Blue Nile where in the city of Khartoum El Mahdi, flushed with victory, is sur rounded by a horde of fanatics. The f. all of Khartoum created more ex citement in London than the attempt of the dynamiters to blow up the houses of parliament. Party spirit runs even higher in England than in this country, and when the news of the English reverse and the death of Gordon in the desert was told in London there were not wanting Tory leaders to exult at hearing of the de defeat Among that party the name of Gladstone is execrated. Upon his head falls the force of the disaster. He was urged to send an expedi tion to Khartoum as early as June whon the Kile was in a navigable state up to Khartoum. It was not until August 5th that the nesessary appropriations were made for the ex pedition, and it was not until the middle of that mouth that the expedition started. It ascended the Nile, encountering, of course, all the expected low water obstacles after passing the first cataract It was thoroughly equipped, both for water and land transit. It was this delay which is now a fresh source of exas peration of the British public. It was declared all along that this pro crastination would be fatal to imme diate success. "When parliament meets, of course there will be the usual resolution introduced, of a want of confidence in the ministry. Events may occur in the meantime which may change the whole aspect of the Soudan business. The deepest shadow of the disaster is not in the mere fact that El Itfabdi is in posses sion of Khartoum. If his strength has been rightly reported, he might have taken that city long ago. But the effect of that temporary sncces will be to inspire fresh acts of rebel lion wherever the Arabs can be massed in force. A single Moham medan victory ovor British troops stirs up the whole Mohammedan world, not only in the Soudan but throughout India. The British troops have not been defeated in any encounter with Arabs. We have seen ten thousand of the latter pitted against less than two thousand of General Wolseley's force and the result is known to everybody. The danger of any temporary success, as of that at Khartoum, is that it may inspire mutiny and rebellion over all that part of the Mohammedan world now in subjection to British authority. All the actual and possible evil consequences of the fall of Khartoum will be ascribed to the Gladstone ministry. One of the consequences will be the sending of an additional force to the Soudan, resulting in a series of operations of far more significance than the draw ing off of tho ten or fifteen thousand people who have been watchiug for an opportunity to get out of the coun try. The rebel Arabs of that country have been cherishing dreams of power which they balievj soon to be real ized, They have threatened lower Egypt, and the outbreak of Arabs there which required a British army to check was only the precursor of the more formidable outbreak in up per Egypt In all that country the rebellion of Arabs, either in spirit or in overt acts, is almost universal. Great Britain has undertaken to save Egypt; and what appeared to be no great undertaking a few mouths ago, has now assumed formidable propor tions. Neither the fall of Khartoum, nor the possible fall of the British ministry can now be moro than ini tial proceedings in the new scheme of subjugation aud conquest Them: is a veritable reign of terror in Vienna in consequence of the vigor ous measures which the Austrian gov ernment had deemed necessary to adopt for the repression of anarchism. Hundreds of political spies have late ly, been added to the regular police forco. Most of these spies are politi cal adventurers, who are without a trace of conscience or principle, and many of whom are themselves familiar with the interiors of prisons in Aus tria, Franco and Germany. They are loyal to the government by which they are employed, if they can make more money by betraying a political offender than by blackmailing him. No one is safe from their accusations, and people have become timorous about discussing political affairs even with intimate friends. Tho govern ment has determined if possible to extripate anarchism from the empire before it has become more deeply rooted. To this end enormous sums of money are being spent on the secret service, and the trials and punish ments of accused persons are swift and severe. An alleged anarchist named Thilmau was tried a week ago on a charge of circulating pamphlets inciting to assassination and the de struction of public property by dyna mite. The trial was conducted with closed doors and without a jury. "Within two hours Thilman was tried, convicted of high treason and sen tenced to penal servitude for six years. NEW TO-DAY.
