THE HEBREWS AGAIN.


The excitement against the Hebrews in Rus
sin we were told month ago was rapidly abat
ing, which only meant that there had been no
recent outbreak against them. The intense
prejudice against this race in the middle and
lower class Russian is so ineradcable that it
might almost be called a matter of the blood.
Even General Ignatieif, in his manifesto, last
month, ~ Minister of the Interior, which was
ayowedly intended to put a stop TO all perse-
cuhOn of them, cites, with apparently uncOn-
scious vehemcnce and bitterness, the popular
grounds OF complaint against them, chief among
which are their tribal exclusiyeness, RELIGIOUS
fanaticism aud activity all. OF which he de-
clares to be detrimental to Christians"
While the nominal purport and bulk of the
manifesto is TO order the Governors Of prov
inces 10 protect the Jews, its most stringentdi-
rcctioEs are rs to the means 20 be used to
"fuse them in the population" and to par
alyze their injurious activity" There is a
good deal of license conveyed under that
vague hint, rs nobody knows better thar Gen
cral ,naticif, who, with all his reputation for
outspokcnness, never suys q word which he
does not fully mean and of which he has not
calculated the effect. How il the Injurious
activity" Of the Jews to be "parayzcd" without
dealing with them rs individuals Russia, a
few weeks ago, when there was a rumor of n
proposed collective note from Austria Eng
land and Holland, protesting against the bar
barous treatment Of the Jews by Russians,
answered triumphantly that no such move
mcnt in favor Of them could be made, rs no
Government recognized them "a n separate ma
ton, and no Government had the right
To interfere between Russian subjects. The
activity which is so Injurious to Rms
slams is, in fact, their skill in trad
ing, in accumulating money and in lend
ing IT, Any interference with il, therefore,
must be directed against individual Jews and
we suspect il will be in the spirit, If not the
shape, OF Front de BeuTs interference with
Isaac of York who was brought to right way
of thinking on reg-hot grd.ron.
The Government OF Russia has y habit OF
waking mp suddenly to repress cruelty when
il is Just too late to save the victim. As for
example, in case in Dambroyitza, lately,
where ten Roumanian PEASANTS accused OF
theft, were first blsiinadocd then beaten
with ucttles, then tortured by the thrusting
of auills into the quick of each nail and finally
hung by the feet. The real thief was dis
covered, and Government intcrfcred to direct
that the tortured men should have q fair
trial to prove their innocence But tley died
before the trial came Off Something of the
same complexion General lgnqhcn's present
Justice shows toward the jews.

But not to withhold praise where praise is
due, the credit of Mr.. Flowers election belongs
largely to the Honorable Jimmy O'Brien. The

as they do to-day.

In Connecticut the Republicans have reflect

show that Wolfe, the Independent Republic

Massachusetts goes Republican as she has
done every year but one since the Republican
party was organized. Governor Long has made
an efficient and popular Executive, and his re-
election has never been at all in doubt.
Probably his majority will reach 10000.
There is at least one feature Of the result of
The election in this city which all Republicans
can rejoice Over--we mean the success of Dan
lei G. Rollins, the Republican candidate for
Surrogate. which is plainly indicated by the
returns. Here is another example of the wis
dom Of nominating unexceptionable candi-
dates. Everyone who voted for Mr.. Rollins
did so with full confidence that If elected he
would make an excellent Surrogate.
The dispatch from Meridian, Miss, about
negroes firing upon unarmed white men at a
polling place in that vicinity, may safely be set
down as o Bourbon fabrication. The whole
history of Southern politics since Reconstrhc-
hon does not furnish solitary instance Of
colored men being the aggressors at an cleo
hon riot. If the truth is ever known about this
particular affair, we venture to say that it will
show that white Democrats were the assail-
ants, and that the affray was the result of

The election of Seth Low as Mayor of Brook
lyn shows what can be accomplished by an en-
ergetic and thoroughly honest effort to beat
corrupt municipal ring. The Brooklyn Rcpub-
licans had to work against a large Demo
cratic majority and the power OF compact
body of skilful politicians strongly intrenched
behind the Offices and patronage of the City
Government They won by nominating an ex-
celent candidate, perfecting an organization
for campaign and election-day service superior
TO that of their opponents, and then throwing
themselves into the contest with enthusiasm
and tireless zeal. Their splendid victory is
due very largely to the exertiOns of the young
men of their party, who made a hOuse-to- house
canvass of the entire city and convinced thou
sands of voters that it was alike their duty
and interest to aid in freeing the city from
Democratic ring rule. The Young Republicans
of Brooklyn are entitled to great credit Their
movement ought TO furnish an example to
other cities laboring under the burden Of mu-
nicipal misrule.

The returns from Virginia are quite scanty,
but they seem clearly TO indicate a complete
triumph of the Liberal coalition. 1t Will be
observed that these returns are chiefly from the
cities and large towns, where the BourbonS
were strongest, and that they all tell the same
story of Liberal gains The mountain counties,
where the Malone movement polledits heaviest
vote mt the last election, cannot fail TO swell the
tide of Bourbon disaster. We think it safe to
claim that the Liberals have elected their State
ticket by 10000 majority and have secured
control of both houses of the Legislature. A
Liberal victory in Virginia is of far more
significance in its bearing upon National poll
ties than Republican defeat in New York.
The latter only shows that the apathy of an
oil year and the sulliness of Mr. Conkling S
followers have given the Democrats tran
sient and proftless success the former points
Enthusiastically to the speedy breaking up of
the Solid South and to the dawn of new day
of tolerance, honesty and manliness in the
political contests of that section.

Alters Ahead--'Rah for the
United States.

A party Of young men travelling
in Europe had among them a citizen
of our great republic who was so
thoroughly patriotic that he could
see no excellence in anything in the
Old World, as compared with his
own country. Mountains, waterfalls,
churches, monuments, scenery, and
all other objects of interest were
inferior to what the United States
could show. His companions be-
came somewhat tired Of his over
weening boastfulness, and deter
mined to "take him down peg"
The party spent winter in Rome,
and one evening, having all things
prepared, they induced their Yankee
friend to join a drinking bout, and
SO managed that they kept sober,
while he got gIoriously drunk.
Thereupon they took him into the
catacombs, laid him carefully down,
with candle within reach, and re,
tired short distance out of sight,
to wait for the developments.
After a while their friend reused
up, having slept off his drunken stu
por, and, in a state of some aston
lshmcnt, began endeavoring to locate
himself, at the same time muttering
DWELL - hic--this's little strange.
Wonder--hic--where / am, anyway
He got out his match, lighted the
candle, and began to study his sur
roundngs. On each side were piled
grinning skeletons, while all about
were piled legs, arms, ribs and ver-
