The KiShineV Petition.
Though Refused at st. Petersburg 1t
May Have a Mission at Home.

May Have a Mission at Home.
The Kishinev petition has failed of
IFS main purpose, as all but the most
sanguine of its signers must have
realized that il would fail. The Rus
sian government, standing on its own
rights and its own sense of dignity
and propriety, has refused to receive
communication dealing with mat
ters with which our State Department
has-and can have-no official con-
eern. The attitude of the Russian
foreign Office has been politely but
unequivocally disclosed. 1t considers
the petition a diplomatic founding.
inexcusably sought to be left at a
friendly nations threshold, and it
tells the holder of the basket in which
the waif is hidden that neither mis-
taken charity nor idle curiosity will
induce it to examine the contents of
the package thus awlowardly deposited
at It's door.
We cannot quarrel with this decis-
ion; for it is one we should ourselves
take, If the Russian government were
to send us a petition lamenting the
summary and lawless vengeance meted
out in many of our States to negro
criminals, or urging the suppression
of the feuds which bring life in the
mountain regions of Kentucky and
elsewhere almost to the level of the
Survival of the fttest" warfare
waged by primitive man. If we put
ourselves in Russia's place, we can
readily sympathize with her purpose
to accept no foreign criticism of her
domestic shortcomings, whether that
criticism be well based or not
But in another and broader sense
the preparation of the Kishinev pc
tition has not been labor wasted.
Though mistakenly seeking its end
through channels of diplomacy, the
appeal to the merely as the
appeal of humane American senti-
ment-cannot but accomplish some
benefcent purpose. 1t has voiced the
horror of American opinion at per
secutions springing from religious
preiudice-at barbarities inflicted
under the spur of religious bigotry.
However susceptible the American
may be TO prejudices based on race or
color, he is notably free from those
based on religious intolerance. And
his impatience with wrongs done
under the cloak of religious passion
naturally finds a ready and vehement
expression.
May we not hope that the signers
of the Kishinev protest will be moved
to a more ardent effort 10 discourage
brutalities at home no less reprehen-
sible than the massacres at Kishinev?
The preparation Of the paper refused
bv the Gar viii still have fulfilled a
great and urgent mission, If il turns
American opinion 10 questioning Its
own intolcrarces. to rcpenting and
amending the brutalities 50 often
committed here at home through the
excesses of our race preiudices and
our race hatreds.
