The good rabbi Krauskopf of Philadel-
phia has returned home, after meeting with
much success in his benevolent mission to
Russia, for the purpose of promoting a
project for the amelioration of the condition
of the Jews OF that country. 1t was expected
In some quarters that Dr. Krauskopf would
be refused admission to the country under
the law Of Russia, forbidding the entrance
OF any Hebrew, but he went as an Ameri-
can citizen. and was somewhat agreeably
surprised at receiving a most hospitable re-
ception, and at having every convenience
afforded him. to enable him to carry out
his project. In brief, DR.. Krauskopfs plan
is to have the Russian government make a
grant Of land, ON which to colonize the
Russian Jews, the expenses of the colonial
ton scheme to be borne out of funds to be
raised by Hebrews OF various countries
His proposition is now under consideration
by the Russian government. 1t was said
that DR.. Krauskopf would find the general
character and condition of the Russian
Jews such as would tend to lessen his
benevolent enthusiasm. Reports from Rus

anti-Semitic sympathies indicated that the

Almost without notice a cholera epidemic
described as the most savage of modern
years. has swept into Europe. The out
posts Of the plague have been advanced
to within two hundred miles of Paris and
two hundred and fifty miles of London. and
the sanitarians of Western Europe seem to
be just awakening to the fact. Among the
iron workers and coal miners of the Mouse
valley, in Belgium, miserably housed and
poorly fed, the pestilence has found all the
conditions necessary to spreading rapidly,
and an unheard of percentage Of deaths
is reported. Undoubtedly the officers in
charge Of the administration Of national
quarantine laws who have rendered such
efficient service in other years will be alert
to prevent an invasion of our shores by the
pestilence, but precautionary measures
should not end with a Strengthening of the
coast guard. In Washington. as in every city,
care should be taken to put the city in the
best possible sanitary condition and to keep
it so. September is regarded as the month
Of greatest risk, and 1t is a good time for
a general crusade against filth. This is
something in which every householder, as
well as the health officials, has a duty to
perform, a duty he owes the public as well
as himself. A general cleaning up, even If
the cholera finally gets no nearer our cities
than 1t is now, would render a good return
in the shape of improved public health and
reduced mortality.

The general rejoicing of Labor day is SUBJ
dued by the news from Minnesota of the
appalling destruction Of life in towns and
villages swept away by the flood of fire rag
ing In the forests. The reports received in
dictate the calamity to be one of the most
extensive in point of fatality and one OF
the most heartrending in point of suffering
known in the history of the country. Hun.
dreds Of homes have been destroyed, and
hundreds of families have been suddenly
and cruelty bereaved. The hearts of the
people have been touched by the tales OF
suffering that have been flashed over the
wires. For the dead little can be done, bu
for the living, thousands of whom are lef
in want. as well as grief, much can be done
and undoubtedly the American people will
respond nobly and promptly to calls fol

The shock felt by the whole nation at the
news Of the murder of six negro prisoners
by a mob in Tennessee, described in dis
patches published in Saturdays STAR fur
nishes evidence that the public conscience
Is awakening to a sense Of duty in this
matter of 1ynching. The state Of Tennes-
see owes IT to itself to see that swift pun
ishment follows the frightful crime of this
mob. a crime Tot against the lives of these
Elk defenseless negroes only, but against
the honor and the liberties of the whole
people. Whenever a lynchlng occurs in a
life and property are not so secure in that
community as they were before. 1t Is a
noticeable fact that in the present case the
negroes lynched were not guilty of the
gross crime which. according to the code
of some communities, has been held to
justify even such public outrage as lynch

the declaration made by representative
bodies Of leading colored churches that the
lives Of negroes are held in the south as
less sacred even than the lives of the
brutes Of the field, has received strong con-
firmation- II is for Tennessee and the

such crimes and the adoption of effective
preventive measures, that theirs is a land

borne fruit and human law is respected

ropulists aud Organized Labor TO Form n
Political Union.
NEW YORK, Aug 2O.-One OF tho most
important movements In the political
campaign of 1894 was inaugurated yester-
day nt Clarendon hall It was, in fact,
tho coming together of two spontaneous
but separate lines of action, which, in
case OF final permanent union, cannot
iail Co have "a bearing upon tho forthcOm-
Ing election, which may turn the tide this
fall. If tho dreams OF the prime movers
in this farreaching scheme Of coalition
are reallzod, tho now political combination
will soon take It's place among sthe great
parties In this state, possibly with good
prospect of holding the balance Of power
Tho first movement, started some weeks
ago, comprehends the full and complete
entry of organized labor into the political
arena in New York state. The second is
the proposition OF the Peoples Party to
unite with organized labor in forming "a
now political party to take part in this
campaign.
When it is remembered that organized
labor OF this city caused tremendous ex-
oitoment in 1886 during the Henry George
campaign and nearly elected their ticket
and when it is recalled that the Populists
oifer an immediate haven for these thou
sands OF voters in the way of organized
party machinery, It can be seen that un-
ion Of these active clements will result in
n powerful body of workers and voters.
The only question is as TO whether the
coalition can be accomplished.
