Adam lads Activities.

Old Adam Fad, the ''bear who walks
like a man." is making history of his
peculiar kind with a vengeance. The
Bear, otherwise the Gear Nicholas, who
as self -avowed autocrat, has to shoulder
the responsibility for all the deviltry per-
petrated by his subordinates, occupies no
enviable position. The blood of multi
tudes of murdered ews,-disembowelled,
shot down like dogs, burned, poisoned,
tortured by methods unknown to the old
inquisition-cries to heaven for ven
geance. The fury of Jew-baiting has
spread over the bounds Of Bessarabia
and Rumania, which always has the
prosecuting hand uplifted to strike down
the Jew and has been stimulated by the
savage excuses at Kishinef to renew the
Infamous work.
Russia has, thru the fury of her Jew
baiters, been enabled to turn the atten-
ton of the civilized world from her
felonious operations in Manchuria to the
field of blood in Bessarabia and Rumania.
The manager of the Hongkong Daily
Press who arrived at Victoria, B. c.,
yesterday, confirms all that has been re-
ported about Russia's purpose to per-
manently occupy Manchuria, and states
that the rebellion in the Quang province
in southern China, while initiated by the
natives, has been utilized by France to
carry out her purpose of extending her
territory from Tonquin north into Quang-
ST and Yunnan. The native uprising in
the southern provinces is designed to re-
establish the capital of China at Nankin,
where it was anciently under the Ming
dynasty, which was overthrown by the
Manchu Tartars who invaded China from
Manchuria and set up their government al
Picking. The great Tae-ping rebellion
from 1850 to 1862 was designed to set ur
a native dynasty and the leader, Tier
Wang, established his court at Nankin
where he restored the etiquette Of the
Ming emperors. It is not surprising thai
Russia, seeks to amplify her possessions
in China, having already seized a large
| slice of Chinese territory.
Meantime. with very positive knowledge
of the present phase of Russian aggres.
sion, the powers are permitting Russia
to strengthen her position in every way
