IN A GLASS HOTSE.

The Russian who said the other day that no
American was ins position TO point the finger
Of seorn ST Russia because Of the anti-Jewish
riots spoke with q considerable measure Of
truth. We do indeed live in glass house In
parallel columns with the dispatches from Kish-
ineff we find in our newspapers accounts Of the
hanging and burning Of a negro in Illinois-the
State Of Abra ham Lincoln and a wholesale kill
ing of negroes. including an innocent woman,
by mob in Mississippi the State Of Jefferson
Davis The Americans have their own instinct
for race persecution. and IN the qualification Of
it they do not need 10 look for points TO any
other nation. And the particularly ominous
feature of the situation is that this is supposed
10 be civilized and self-governing people.
Outbreaks Of disorder may be expected from
time 10 time in any country. Jefferson cher
ished notion that they were rather a good
thing. as an indication of popular will, which
should not pay too great reverence 10 laws. and
great body Of his followers sometimes seem
TO have adopted that article Of his creed and
forgotten wiser ones which served to correct st.
Human nature IS much the same in Russia and
the United States. and elemental passions
aroused in either country are likely 10 result
in a breach Of the peace. The Russian peasant
however. is not a lawgiver- He is a creature
ruled from above, feeling no responsibility for
the conduct and character of his country If
its laws are brought into contempt that is the
affair Of 1he Gar II he can give free rein 10
murderous instincts without punishment, he
has by so much circumvented the restraints of
a despotism which. even when it commands
peace and order and justice. does it as a power
external TO himself. The American. however,
is the maker Of his own laws The govern
rnent is his government: the courts are his
courts When certain procedure is prescribed
for the punishment OF criminals and the pro-
lection of innocent persons from mistaken ac-
cusations. il is be who makes the rule.
Now If the rulers cannot obey their own
rules, If not only few lawless spirits here and
there. but whole communities. give themselves
up TO riot and bloodshed, and then in their
capacity as administrators of justice simply
say that they will not punish those who COM
NIT popular crimes, and viii make their own
criminal Justice a farce, then the whole ma
chinery Of government seems 10 be going 10
pieces at the foundation. The justification Of
democratic government is found in the ability
of the people 10 govern themselves. II they
cannot do this, then their democracy al an
order of civilized society is a failure.
