1t designates equal rights, political

The Cleveland Leader recalls
something of interest TO our He
brew iellowcitizen when it cites
the fact that when Mr.. Blaine was
secretary Of state he forced the Rus
sian government to abandon its pol
icy of prosecuting the Hebrews.
He gave the cars government to
understand that he would tolerate
no improper Interference with Amer
lean citizens, and invited other gov
ernments to unite in the cause OF
civilization to prevent Jewish per.
secution in Russia, This fact was
also brought to the attention of the
Russian authorities, and resulted in
releasing a great many Hebrews
from Imprisonment and further per
secution. The Hebrews of this
country appreciate the interference
of Mr., Blaine in favor of their Rus.
sian brethren, and will give him q
hearty support in November next.
