THE DEMOCRAT regrets to an
nounce the defeat of the election
bill. No one will accuse the Dem
ocrat of pandering to the Popu-
lists or the Republicans. What the
Populist and the Republicans want
in the matter OF election laws cuts
no figure in the case. What is
right and just is tho single consid-
Grafton which moves The Demo
crat. It is not right to deprive the
minority OF representation on the
respective election boards. It is
not just that the state board should
be composed of Democrats only.
The minority should have voice,
and common justice and tair deal.
ing will continue to demand it un-
til this right is accorded. We are
sowing the wind in this matter, and
unless we change we shall reap the
whirlwind. These slight changes

St Petersburg, Dee. 9.-Throughout
Russian Asia there is general unrest
among the Moslcms. II is attributed 10
the exaggerated reports Of the Turk sh
victories over the Great Greek empire
which have spread through the length
and breadth OF the continent. The au-
thorities even fear that the revival of
brgandagc recently noticed in the Cau-
casns Is directed almost solely against
the government officials. and the un-
precedented phenomenon OF Geo gIaus
displaying hostility toward Armcatans
has become manifest. The danger j. so Sc
rtous that conference Of Caucasian gav-
ernors has been convaked to concert
measures of paclfication, Travellers in
Central Asia report an extraordina ier-
ment among the Moslems of different
races. They are sinking their mutual ami

careful in the future to see that their
bills for private pensions We're merltorlons
