worked for the whole Republican

SWEDISH LUTHERAN CHURCH.
Twentieth Anniversary Celebration
Was Concluded Last Night.

Twentieth Anniversary Celebration
Was Concluded Last Night.
The celebration of the twentieth an
niversary of the Swedish Evangelical
Lutheran church, which was begun on
Friday night, was concluded yesterday.
There were special services both morn-
ing and evening and all were exceed
ingly well attended. On Saturday
evening supper was served in the
church parlors, commencing at o'clock,
and following this came a short musi-
cal programme by members of the
church choir and some invited members
of other churches in the state. The
principal feature Of the evening was an
address by Rev. l.. Holmes, the found
err of the church, and its first pastor
gave a very interesting history of the
work in connection with the first years
of the church and he related many in
cidents which were especially pleasing
to the younger members of the church.
The. services yesterday were entirely
in Swedish and there were many pres
ent from out of the city. The service
was simple but communion was admin
istered. In the evening the sermon was
preached by the Rev. L. Holmes and
another musical and literary pro-
gramme was given. This marked the
close of most successful and inter-
esting celebration, which will be long
remembered by all who attended.

cl,siveness. The present policy fosters
the growth of a bitter anti-Russian
sentiment. A reversal of the policy
might transform the Jews into patriot
ic Russian citizens. The explanation of
the anomaly lies to great extent in the
peculiar relation existing between the
Russian government and the Russian
people. 1t is mistake to suppose that
the government is independent of pub
lie opinion. In order not to create ex-
cessive friction in the prosecution of its
own subjects it must make certain con-
cessions to popular feeling. If popular
feeling makes a, decided demonstration
in favor of certain reforms, the govern
ment will make d show Of introducing
them. always provided that such re-
forms do not endanger the existence of
the autocracy; and if popular feeling is
moved by unreasoning prejudice the
government is willing 70 make certain
concessions to such prejudice for the
sake of conciliating in some degree the
main body of its subjects. This consid-
GRAFTON partly explains the attitude of
the government to the Jews. The aver
age Russian has violent racial antip-
athy to the Jew. The cause of this an
tipathy it is needless to investigate 1t
is one of the irrational elements in pop
ular life that play such an important
part in politics The main tendencies
of Russian anti-Sennitic legislation must
be regarded as a reflection of popular
feeling.-Correspondent London Times.
