A Good Word for the Hebrews.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE HERALD
"Sem-Occasional' has done good service to the
cause Of religious freedom and the honor of our
country by exposing the bigotry and intolerance
OF class Of persons who are last bringing the
United States into disgrace. 1 allude to hote,
Keepers and their representatives, who, instead or
being, as they should be, public convenience,
are really public nuisance, and should be taken
down" accordingly. This last act OF excluding the
Jews from their "holsteries" is the climax of their
erontery, and deserves as 1t Will receive, the con-
demnaton OF every true Christian. When read
"Semi-O ccasional's" earnest and forcible protest
in last Sundays HERALD ! could hardly realize
that It was made IN our free America,
but had In some mysterious way come
from Russia or Roumania, where liberty Is
found only In the dictionaries. There must be an
end put to this business at once. Christianity can
not permit such acts TO be committed in her name,
nor will her sons look on with Indifference while
the struggle is pending. The press, as ever, speak
ing Tor the people, is noby coming forward to the
rescue. AS Christian ieel mortified beyond ex-
preston at this fresh insult offered to Israclt-
lsh friends, and sincerely hope there never will
be occasion hereafter TO thus publicly apologize to
them for any similar offence committed by ignorant
fanatics, VINO mistake greatly II they think our
Saviour approves such acts.

How LONE PINE WAS "RUN" BY
GEORGE WATsoN.--Lone Pine was a
town in California. It CAM be much of q
town, but appears to be too big to be run by
one man. George Watson had to leave it
months ago on account Of some numbering
he had done there. He made tour of the
mines under another name and came
back to Lone Pine with reinforced opin-
ion of his ability to stay there, and some
money in his pockets-the fruit Of his
wanderings and thieying operations
among the miners. He was in the
habit of killing or robbing man
whenever he took a fancy to such
amusement, and having been quite
successful in these enterprises, ne came
back to Lone Pine with his arms and ann
munition, and announced his intention to
s'run the town." His first act ofgovernment
was to beat and nearly kill an inoifensive
English-speaking Indian because he was an
Indian. The same evening, pistol in hand,
he turned all the occupants out OF saloon,
| and standing in the door, announced that
he was able to whip any man in the crowd,
and that if some one did not take him up
and fight him instantly he would be under
the necessity of shooting somebody. just
then he got gun-shot through the hear
and fell dead, and the coroner was unable
to find out who did it. That is the way
! George Watson ''runo Lone Pine. lhi

THE Cincinnati Commercial does not
think the members Of the next Congress
are far advanced in the science of trade

finance. The Commercial breathes the
following: assgf. sa slsa
1--WE wish that, before the opening OF
the next session of Congress, every mem
Der could be put into training school for
the purpose of receiving instructions in the
elementary principles of finance. Not one
in twenty oil them could at this time stand
an examination on these elementary prin-
ciples, and probably not ten in the whole
body, senate and house, could show any
thing like proficiency in their financial
studies. .'aH sva4-I -Ii.s : Ks - illhE ~ z q

may be no fault of theirs. but it is the
misfortune of the country. We accept
the bandinage of The Republican in
earnest. Congressman would do aoeu
to study the teachings Of the independ-
ent press. The press gives voice to
the people, In the discussions of the lead
ing newspapers during the past few months
there is the best instruction on finance in
the world. Business men, manufacturers,
mechanics, and farmers who face the ques.

and they have often spoken wisely. 9it
Let Congress listen to their suggestions,
and study finance from their standpoint,
and the present outrageous and ruinous
system will be repealed the first week of

AssAULT.--We regret to learn that an
unprovoked and wholly wanton assault
was made upon Judge Underwood this
afternoon while on bis way from the cars
to his courtroom, by Mr.. McVeigh, a
merchant of this city. Property in dis
pute between the parties has caused some
bitter feeling on the part of McVegb. We
know nothing of the merits Of the dispute,
but we are informed that it is in
process of litigation. Each party will
have a fair chance, and an exhibi-
ton of violence is very sure way to prove
that the party who resorts TO it can
not trust the law to yindicate his rights.
Judge Underwood is the last man who
would wrong any one out of q cent, if we
are not much mistaken. His age and po-
sition entitle him to respectful treatment,
and we. hope to see proper action taken by
the authorities of this city to prevent a
repetition Of such disgraceful affairs.
