Plumb as a High up Fellow.

From the Mcpherson Freeman,
Marsh Murdoch declines to enter the
gubernatorial contest, because the can
didate to be successful, must submit TO
certain fixing up by managers and of
ticials higher up" Now we recognize
the import ince of political management
for party sake, but protest against 1t for
the interest of the individual The "high-
er up fellows" to whom Murdoch refers
are few in number for the next cOnven-
ton. Plumb is about the only ''high up
fellow" in sight, and as he has his own
case in hand he will hardly give much
to the choice of governor within his own
party ranks, In fact Piunhs safety lies
in / tt ~ the governor Ion and there
are 10 higher up felIows' o deal with.

The diplomatic circles in Berlin are
wrought up over the supposed insanity
of young William, which has recently
been demonstrated anew by divers men
tai wanderings. 1t is not improbable
that Bismarck's intention of taking an
aggressive stand in the reichstag was
abandoned on this account, to avoid the
precipitation of crisis.

About the Size oft.

From the Springfield Democrat.
The next important political event
will be the election Of speaker of the. in
coming hoGe OF representatives. Mills
should have been chosen without serious
opposition, and would unquestionably
have been but for his ostentatious I'M
easiness. By the laundering of himself
and friends he has cceeded in antago-
nizing the friends of silver by unneces-
sarily and in an exceedingly impolitic
manner beiittling the latter, and the
result is counter rallying around the
Crisp standard and his probable election.
Mr.. Mills campaign has been one of self
sufficiency not at all in accord with the
American idea, whether in politics,
business or society.

State Veterinarian Mayo is given the
title of ''Duke of Chambers" by the Atch-

affixes perpetual inhibition upon the
comforting of titles to citizens of this

instance is surprising, in view of its well

WILL RUSSIA CHANGE HER PoL1CYq

WILL RUSSIA CHANGE HER POLICY?
The most thorough study that has
been made of Russian affairs is that
made by A. Leroy-Beaulieu, the great
French economist, who has written the
! great economic work on Russia and has
for many years written for the impor-
tant Reviews of Europe on Russian sub
| jects. N. Beaulieu writes for the De-
cember number of The Forum an expla-
nation of the financial and international
aspects of the Russian persecution of the
Jews, making broad and comprehen-
sive treatment of the subject. He shows
clearl Y why the interference by the peo-
pie of other nations with Russia's policy
will not only not cause a change in this
policy, but may provoke the persecution
to greater intensity. He explains, more
over, the attitude of tSe great Jewish
bankers in Europe to Russia, and shows
that on account of national complica-
lions these bankers cannot, for the pre-
sent at least; do much to prevent Russia
from carrying out her policy of persecu-
ton. There has been much written on
this subject, but most of it has been of
partisan nature. Leroy Beaulieu, how
ever, gives the most comprehensive pic
ture of the whole situation that has ap-
peared anywhere perhaps-certainly that
has appeared in the English language.
