md repellant nationality OF their
own"
Prof. Smith objects to the Talmu-
die differences in diet practiced by the
Jews, and which obtains, as we all
know, but slightly in America; 10
their law OF circumcision, which sepa-
rates them absolutely from even their
agnostic brother, and to their repug-
nance to inter-marriage. These as
tinct social laws, he claims, have
made the jew an Objectionable citizen
in every country where he has prepon-
derated. 1t is absurd, he argues, tc
hold the Jew responsible for the death
of Christ, but especially to believe hin
a special people over which Jehovah
watches jealousy.
Even when;the Jew becomes derap
binized, says Prof. Smith, his thelsi
does not develop him spiritually, 10
7 he is taught that worldly prosperity
p a sign of Gods approval, and Una
=, worldly adversely means JehoVlsll
S wrath. To asceticism he is stra'

It lieyes he cannot become a deslraD
" citizen. If this ultra worldliness Is
d sign of undesirableness, Prof. Sml'

ESTHER

One of the prettiest stories In the {
Old Bible is that contained In the
Book of Esther. 1t is very dramatic,
and no story of modern times more
eiIectually rewards virtue and puhi-
shes vice, than that does. Hannah, an
arrogant, self-sunicient, ambitious ana
tyrannical favorite of King Ahasuerus,
who was ruler over one hundred
seven and twenty provinces, from
India even unto Ethiopia" had
succeeded in obtaining authority
TO destroy the entire Jewish race IN
the kingdom, but'he was thwarted by
! Esther, and disgraced, while Morde-
I. cal. Esther's uncle and foster-father,
who was the special object OF ms
G spite, was exalted to the "seals OF
:, state" and superseded the arrogant
Hannah. The story is beautifully
st paraphrased in verse and ornamentec

JUMPS THE PLATFORM

The story that Judge Calkins tells oil
Democrats keeping off OF their plaC-
forms, Just as people are admohlShcu
not TO stand on the platforms OF NOV
inc cars. is emphasized just now by
the Democratic candidate Tor COVER
nor in Ohio. Wednesday of last week
Gooyernor Campbell opened his cam
najgn at Lakeside, and the reports OF
the meeting say that she spoke chiefly
an the tariff and said he was free
trader in the same sense Garfield was,
who fayoroved protection that woulu
lead to free trade. lie concluded MS
speech with a bitter denunclatlon OF
monopolies." -.
Governor Campbell was a Republi-
can until 1872, when he "Greeleyized
and left his party because ne DIS
liked President Grant. His present
statement that he is the same kind Oh
a tariff man that Garfield was, shows
that he did not leave his principles
behind him when he left the Republi
cans. and that he is a Democrat 10

believes in its free trade doctrines
When Governor Campbell says he i
a Garfield protectionist he splits OF
the platform of his own party, o.
which he is running for reelection
1t reads thus:
We are opposed to all class Legislation
and belieye In a tariff levied for the sol
purpose OF producing revenue suhclcl

The change in the political comp sxion
Of the North Is the most remarkable
political phenomenon Of this or any other
age.
Ten years ago the Northern states
were almost solidly Republican. The
sentiment was so strong that every great
newspaper, every social club, every In
huence Of every kind was either Republi
can or dominated by Republican senti.
ment. The schools, colleges and univer.
stiles turned out Republican graduates
and Repuhlicanism was purred and
droned from the pulpits, and squeaked and
howlod from the rostrums The Republican
party prided itself on having all the in
telligence and patriotism that there was.
and felieilatsd Itself Oh being the God
and morality party and the CONSERVATION
fan that was good, righteous and holy
in politics and religion, all that was
wise, fair and just in stateersft.
Now the situation is reversed. The
great papers are opposed TO the Republi-
can party, the universities turn out
Democrats and the voices Of the preacher
aud the lecturer are constantly raised
against the party which enriches this
class at the cost Of the mass. In addition
to all this the Northern states, for the frs
time in twenty five years. have sent
Democratic majority to Congress.
The complete revolution in sentiment
the sbject fall from the highest to the
lowest political condition by the Republi
can party is htlY illustrated by the fol
lowing extract from the greatest news
paper in the United States, If not In th,
world--the New York Herald
The Forco bill is the embodiment Of al
that is noiy and beautiful all the sweet
ness and light Ia the Republican party. 1
may cause another civil war, may leave o.
the fair South trail OF blood, may incit
a contest OF races which will reduce tha
section to something worse than tb
original chaos, may light up our wintr,
darkness with the flames OF burnini
dwellings, but what of it9 II the Repuh
lican party can thereby be saved and th
denomination Of Harrison assured. sue
a sacrifice will be regarded as mere bag
ateile. The one fact on which to concen
trate public attention is that the Repub
lieAns must be kept alive at any cost.
And that is not all The chief man i
the party, the President, is the smalles
man who ever sat in the Presidents
chair, and the national chairman. III
most powerful man in the party, Quay
is regarded as felon.
The leaders are men Of poor ability q
OF no morals. The leadership has dc
scsnded from Lincoln, Greeley, Sumner
Chase and Conkling to Hoar, Reec
Ingalls,, Chandler and Quay.
The isRues were Freedom and III
Union then; now the issues are Fore,
