it rather uncomfortable for Blaine when
he comes to review the speech of the

WHO does not remember the sad Char.
ley Ross case, in which a lovely little
boy was stolen, never. to be seen again
by his parents or friends? Chicago has
a similar case, as our dispatches to-day
tell us. Last May a bright little girl,
aged but four years, disappeared. The
poor father, a blacksmith of limited
means, has travelled everywhere on false
clues, and done everything in his power
to find his little darling, but in vain.
The strain was too much. and Wednes-
day he was committed to the asylum,
crazed over his sorrow. How can one
human being be SO awfully cruel a. to
infict such a terrible sorrow on another
as follows the kidnapping Of a loved
child?

The infamous organization known as
the White Caps-a society whose mission
seems to be, principally, to punish men
and women not members of it but against
whom some member Of the society has a
dislike-has resulted in the organization
Of a society to counterfeit the work OF
the White Caps. 1t is possible that some
Of the ~blackmailing c~ut-throats belong
ing to the White Caps will find that it's
a poor rule that will not work both ways.
Men are justified in organizing for self
protection but not for oppression and ag-
gression. 1t is just possible the White
Caps may have to go.

IT HAS generally been understood that
the Russian Mennonites whohave settled
in Minnesota and Dakota were q peace
able and industrious class Of immi-
grants. Our dispatches this morning,
however, charge them with being the
aggressors in a bloody riot that took
place in Tripp county, in the northern
part Of Dakota, In which one or two
lives were probably sacrificed and sew
eral persons were seriously injured. The
American farmers, who. it is claimed.
were on the defensive, were outnumbered
and compelled to withdraw. Active
legal machinery was at onc set in mo-
tion, but the vexatiofs of the laws de-
lays and the mobilize frenzy Of so many
to take the law into their own hands, will
doubtless result in conflict after con-
fiict, probably extending into the years,
between the two races whom an unfor-
tunate circumstance plunged into a
deadly feud. or course it would be much
better to let the law drag its slow course
along, for mob action can only result in
greater harm to all concerned. Let just
ice take the place of revenge.

WHAT mean these concessions Of the
Pope to Russia? One of the results OF
the concessions for the introduction Of
the Russian language in all the Catholic
churches, except in the use of the liturgy,
will be, it is thought, the complete de-
struction Of the Polish element in Rus
STA. How could the Pope lend his church
to the further misery Of the Poles, whose
noble struggles for liberty for SO many
generations, were crushed, one after an
other, by the despotisms surrounding
these people? Poor Polandl No wonder
