EDITORIAL OPINION
Russia's Explanation.

From the Philadelphia Public Ledger.
The Russian Ambassador declares
that the reason for the "unfriendly at
titude" of the Russians to the Jews 'is
found in the fact that the Jews viii
not work in the field nor engage I'm
agriculture" The Jew of Russia, he
says. is a money lender. He takes ad
vantage of the Russian peasant. whom
he soon has in his power, and ulti-
mately destroys When the patience
of the peasant is exhausted, a conflict
occurs. The peasant is "a patient per-
son, but 1T is only natural that he
should entertain a feeling Of resent
ment for the one who has wrought his
ruin"-and so on.
This romantic reconstruction of Rus
sian society is one OF the most daring
feats that Count Cassini's agile diplo-
matte fancy has ever accomplished.
1t is true that the Russian Jews do
not engage i'm agriculture nor work in
the field. They are not allowed TO do
so. They are not permitted TO own or
even to rent land and are confined,
passing their lives within allotted
"pales of the settlement" lying almost
wholly in the cities. They are restrict
/ ed Dy afDltfaly laws TO certain ttdueS'
/ Five-sixths of all the Jews in Russia
never leave the pales, and have no
chance TO see, much less to overpoweI
and destroy, the peasant by whose fan
cied sufferings the ambassador is sc
moved. AS a simple matter of fact
the Jews of Russia, as a class, are alb
jectly poor, and the few of them who
are wealthy enough TO have money tc
lend are in no position to practice ex-
tortion.

The high temperature combined
with the drought, is playing havoc
with the crops OF rural Delaware. Ber-
ries and vegetables are parched, and a
great loss is inevitable. A rain imme-
diately would afford some relief, but
in another week it would be too late
to do Strawberries any good, while
peas, an extensive crop in lower Della

Senator Simmons, of the black belt
Of North Carolina, says the negro
should be hitched to the mule" and that
industrial education for the colored
man is a vast mistake. But the bare
word OF the Tar Heel statesman cam
not be taken as against the facts which
confront us. Industrial education has
proved a success. which is shown in the
tidy homes Of the negroes in the South
their thrifty farms and a general air OF
self-respect All over the South Negro
mechanics and artisans are being EN-
ployed and everybody lis satisfied with

Mr. Payne on the RIaht rraok.
n Mo yvashIngton Post.

From tho Washington Post.
We are glad ito see that the Postmaster
General has amended his original opinion
of Mr. Seymour Tuhoch's charges, and
consented TO regard them as something
moro important than the childish oma-
nations of "a "wndbag." II never serves a
good purpose to treat serious accusations
with rldicule and contempt, and In this
Instance it was especially unfortunate,
since Mr.. Tunoch is a responsible per-
son who enjoys the respect and confidence
of his fenow-t -townsmen. Nobody will be-
leve that he Is an ignorant or malicious
scandal-monger simply because Post
master General Payne sneers ait his state
ments and Mr.. Auditor Castle denOunces
them as false. This is no answer to a dig
mlhed and explicit assertion OF fact which
can be met only by authentic evidence to
the contrary; stlu less will il clear the
Postofdce Department of suspicion and
disrepute to attempt to becloud the con-
trovcrsy with vague arguments relating
to the Spanish war. There is quite
enough in Mr.. Tulloch's 0rraignment TO
JUSTLY, If not 90 compel, a strict and Inn
partial investigation, and under that ar
rangement Auditor Castle and others will
have abundant opportunity to furnish the
country with facts instead Of asservera-
lions.

silly. SEASON TwAppLE.

Last week the Smyrna Call applied
the epiethet fools" TO the Regular Re-
publicans. and i'm about a column
sought to Justify the epithet This
week it calls them "lSnaves" in a
soreed Of equal length. How they are to
avoid these e2ithets is shown in the
concluding paragraph:
When The Regular Republicans shall
line up with the Democratic party I'm
state and county for the overthrow Of
the Union Republican party, we shall
believe in their sincerity, not before.
All! That reveals the motive for two
full columns of abuse. The Call can /
believe in the sincerity of anybody, not
a Democrat. A vision so circumscribed
should preclude one from telling what
he Sees Now should Republicans be-
come Democrats IN order to establish
their sincerity, they couldn't be believed
as Republicans; they would be Demo-
Gratis. What Addicks man has the Call
been consulting, anyway?

Mnn and His Gin,

In man the front OF the lower jaw
bone possesses well marked projcc-
ton, known as the chin or mental
prominence, covered by fleshy pod Of
corresponding shape. In all other back
boned animals the jawbone slopes back
without any such protuberance. 1t is a
singular fact that the presence of n
well marked chin Is associated with
firm character and we'll marked intel
lectual qualities. This is one Of the
best founded rules in character delinea-
tion by physiognomy. The late Profess
or Huxley used to illustrate the matter
by drawing profile with good chin on
the blackboard and then wiping out the
chin and replacing it by receding
curve. Any one who repeats the expert
ment will be surprised at the result.
The, Ee.gan is not clear, but we may
perhaps say that well developed jaw
is associated with good digestive pow

Antiquity of Grnins.

Nearly all the grains now in use are
of unknown antiquity. Wheat was cul-
tiyated in all attitudes as far back in
the past as we have authentic knowl-
edge. Barley is thought to have origi-
mated in the Caucasus, but it was
known and used everywhere in the
most ancient times. Oats, like rye.
were unknown in ancient India and
Egypt and among the Hebrews. The
Greeks and Romans received it from
the north Of Europe. Had there been
an early civilization on this continent
the wild oats found here and there
would probably have developed into
the useful cereal now considered ALSO
lutely essential to the proper nourish
ment OF horses. This continent is cred
led with having given Indian corn to
the Old world. but this useful cereal

Up to the seventeenth century Grub
farcct was on the outskirts of London
1t was a street tenanted by bowers,
fetchers, makers of boWstrings and
everything else that appertained to
archery. Later on John Fox lived in
Grub street, though he did not write
his famous Book of Martyrs" there.
FoX's residence in Grub street occurred
about 1872. John Speed, the tailor
archRologist, was a resident Of Grub
street, where he was famous as the
most responsible parent, having a fam
lily of twelve SONS and six daughters.
Grub street of old and Milton street to-
day is noted for its great number of
alleys and courts.
From Grub street issued such ia
nous old literary skits rs Jack the

-. Probably literary mon first began

great number of seditious and libelous
pamphlets were circulated, and as the
authors for safety had to seek obscure
living places they found fitting re-
treat in the maze of alleys which
webbed the Grub street section. At
any rate, by the commencement Of the
eighteenth century Grub street had be-
come quite notorious as the poor au-
