Tile Christian rs Pagan:

gaod men of Ohio voted to make
our governor, was arrested, ban
ished from his home, his friends,
his country. We Americans estab-
lished Libby and Andersonville,
which in barbarity have no coun-
terparts in any country outside OF
Hades.
Russia, 1T is charged, violates
her Treaties. She has illustrious
example. With the single excep-
tion of the treaty of the Quaker,
Penn, every treaty the Americans
have made with the Indians has
been violated.
Russia Incorporates in her polite
and SOCIAL system the natives of the
country she conquers: We cheat,
starve, exterminate ours.
But Russia is remorseless land
grabber. Her enemy and alley of
Japan, Great Britain, has encircled
the earth with her possessions.
Our government has shown q land
grabbing example. We secure the
Spanish and French possessions !;
we annex Texas an empire of land
extent; we partition Mexico, and
take more than half her territory,
twice as much land as Russia's Po-
land; we buy Alaska, larger in ex-
tent than Manchuria; we take the
Philippines, as extensive in land as
japan and ten times more populous
than Corea, and last in the Land
Grab Game we disuember the Re-
public of Columbia, and spread our
Eagles wings over the State Of
Panama:
Russia's peasantry, say her enc
mics with a sneer, live in log cab
ins, and her women work oYt in
the field. O.. what q coarse and
brutal people these Russiana are to
the kid-gloved missionaries. There
is not q man fifty years Of age, of
country life in Hooking county,
who was not born and reared in q
cabin in the woods. Lincoln was
born in a hut. The log cabin in
which General Grant was born Is
exhibited as the prnudest testimo.
NAL to America and priced more
than the Treasure House of Kings.
Like the Russian peasant women,
our mothers and sisters, when faith
ers, brothers, sons were in the war
fighting for their government, went
into the field and worked az Rus.
sian women are doing to day. II
is shameful to condemn in Russia
what is our highest glory, the wo-
men workers in the field: The
pleasantest work of the farm, and
we boys all had our experience.

Russia has produced in Peter,
the greatest empire builder of all
modern times. Her. universities,
her public improvements vie With
any nation on earth. Alexander
voluntarially gave twepty-thres
millions of slaves their freedom,
and gave each from seven to fifteen
acres of land and public money. At

making a home. and this several
years before Lincoln, as 2 war
measure, issued his, emancipation
proclamation, the manumitted get
ing nothing only the Carpet Bag:
gers thieying rule and a promise
of "forty acres and a mule"
Russia gave freedom to Bulgaria
and repressed the Turkish stroci-
ties IN the Balkan provinces, and
would have driven the Turk from
Europe but for the hindrance
of Japan's ally, the British gov
fernment. -,
