JEWISH ROYAL BLOOD.


Semitic Strain.
a remarkable feature in connection
with the ancestry of all the reigning
houses or Europe is the fact that nearly
every one of them hiss strains of

reigning families are descended. ilav-

his race to De admitted to the ranks OF
the European aristocraev. Pope Leo

Later on one of his sons. who became
converted to the Roman Catholic
church, assembled the papal throne aa-

however. by 70 means constitutes the
only source of Jewish blood in the roval
and imperial veins to-day. There arc
others OF a far less remote character

the grandfather of the present king,
had himself as grandfather HAIR
garian Hebrew named kohary. whose
daughter and heiress married Prince
Ferdinand of Saxe-Coburg. King Car

dubitabi Jewish descent and SO, too.
IS Prince Ferdinand. of Bulgaria. whose
features are remarkably Eebraic.
and who IS grandson of ola

the latter's grandsons, Duke Philip

And apropos of this Jewish descent,
let me add in conclusion the astound-
ing fact that the country which is dis
tinguished above all others for animos-
tiles toward the Jewish race. namely.
Russia, is precisely the very one where
the vein of Hebrew blood is the strong

There is not a single family of the
higher grades of the nobility in the
cars empire which has not at one
time or another during the last two
centuries affiliated or intermarried
with the four great princely houses of
Bragagion. Davidoff Imerietinski and
Muskranski. Now, each of these claims
to be descended in an unbroken and d.
rect line from the Biblical King David,
and. like the Georgian princely family
of Guriel. are proud above everything
else of their Jewish ancestry. Under
the circumstances their undisguised
antipathv to the unfortunate Hebrew
subjects of the car appears. to say the
least, to be illogical-N. Y. Tribune.

We are frank TO confess, however
shocking it may sound to the super
serviceable party hunkies who seem to
assume that the president can do no
wrong and must be supported. right or
wrong, that if the World had thought
him capable of making such an appoint
ment as that of Van Allen it would not
have shown as much interest In his
nomination and election as it did. And
we believe we express the sentiments OF
tens of thousands of Mr.. Cleveland's
wSrmest admirers in the late campaign.

The Hour of Popuiisr Extremity.


From the Topeka Democrat
The Populists are getting alarmed, and
with good reason, over the political
situation in Kansas. They see plainly
the unwelcome shadow of defeat hang
ing over the November elections. They
see that the Democratic vote, that
swelled their victory in 1898, is alienated,
perhaps lost forever. They see also tina.
there is an INSTRUMENTATION party in
the Populist ranks in well nigh every
county in Kansas. No wonder it Is that
the Populist leaders are alarmed, and
that the spectacle is witnessed in the re-
form(9 party of well night every state
Official away from duty out on the stump
1t is no wonder that Hon. Jerry Simpson
has been sent for in hot haste to take the
stump; that the Illinois Populis; orator,
Taubeneck, has been employed to make
series of speeches in Kansas. etc. 1t is
undeniably the hour OF Populist ex-
tremity in this state.
