MOUNTED PATROLS GUARD CITY

Clouds are darkening again over
all Russia and the slight calm of the
last few days is gone and more
bloodshed is feared. A general
strike has been declared in some
cities that threatens to endanger
the very life of the empire itself.
The strike leaders and the govern
ment's opponents were harangu-
ing the men about the streets last
night, and the police showed their
hands by turning their backs. The
arny's loyalty is again seriously
questioned, and it is doubtful if the
government can withstand a long
strike.

general strike formally declared and the
country apparently on the threshold of
gigantic struggle, minor issues fade in the
background. If the strike inaugurated to-
day gathers sufficient headway to endanger
the life of the state. it has virtually been
decided that Grand Duke Nicholas Nicho-
laievitch will be named commander of all
the troops In the empire where martial
law exists which would be tantamount to
the decreeing of military Dictatorship
1t is possible, however, that the govern
ment will not be driven to this extremity,

The spontaneity with which practically
the entire nation arrayed itself against the
old regime last fall is lacking; the endu-

long strain. the sympathy OF the more con-

THANKSGIVING DAY
BY W. 3. HORNE.

Come thou, O Muse, and lot us sing An anthem and metric hymn. While wind and wave are whispering Of Him, our Lord and Sovereign. King Who guards, protects with kindly The humblest and the smallest thing All, all His creatures everywhere! He who. from out His hand of might, Flung many an orb and jewel bright On out--far out--into the night, And gemmed the heavens with stars of light. Look up into that sea of blue,
 Where ether waves lave isles of, And onward tide eternal through. The infinite, unfathomed night! Does He not on Times dial plane Click aeons gone-dark centuries Mark hour of dawn and night again. Of suns that burned about His
 throne?
 Who gave thee soul-who gave the And winged it with the power of
 flight
 That you might learn of Him who
 wrought
 The infinite orbs of light? Hast thou a doubt? Go all alone To where the hoary mountains are, And round you is a forest zone At eve, that forest croons a prayer! Did He not scatter germs on earth, Of golden grain and here and there So plant, that fruiting vines had birth floral kingdom everywhere! Our Lord, God, merciful, is yours, No matter what your faith may be, For into every heart He pours
 His wine of Love and Sympathy. Then come, o Muse, and let us sing Of Him who gave to all things birth And join with those who gladsome
 ring,
 Thanksgiving bells throughout the
 earth.

 The New Bedford Standard refers so Senator Morgan's proposition to have inserted in the next national Democratic platform the words. ''The, Democratic party is and always has - been white mans party" and says sn regard to it:
 If the Republican leaders have the courage, they could ask for nothing better than that this declaration should be in the Democratic national whole platform. Nothing could so Burely make certain the success of the Republican party in the national elec- rhance Ase fo see % that the entire nation has not yet gone daffy over the color question.
 Without at this time expressing an Spinion as to the propriety or im- propriety of having the Senator's sug- westion made part of our national platform we feel bound to saythat The Standard is singularly III informed if 1t does not know that the language used is strictly true. It should know ehat it has been the policy of the Re- publican party since suffrage was giv- on the entire colored population to bind them to the party in both North and South. Tn doing this the Repub- xicans have not always been fair or honest in their methods. They felt that by controlling the solid negro vote they could keep themselves in power indefinitely. That they have mot fully succeeded in accomplish ing their designs Is no fault of their ieaders Some negroes of all sections to be led by the nose, but as a gener- al thing they have stuck to the party at all times.
 The Standard is correct when it de- cIares that ''the entire nation has not yet gone danfy over the color aues- tion." That is true, but if our New England contemporary has kept itself properly informed 1t knows that not all the daffiness is confined to this section of the Union. On the con Grary a little observation will disclose quite a number of daffy ones North of the line, and some of them in its own section of the country. In short, che disease shows itself wherever ne- Groes are to be found in any consider able number, and if few thousands of them should settle in New Bedford we suspect that The Standard would soon develop large crop of daffy symptoms. As a matter of fact the Democratic party is a white mans party to a great extent, here as else- where.

POINTED NOTICE.

The action of the negroes of Chi |cago towards Senator Tillman and his lecture in that city is calculated to create more prejudice against them as race in the North, than anything they have done in recent years. Sem ator Tillman, of course, delivered his lecture under the auspices of some of the best women of Chicago. If the negroes had undertaken to carry out their threat of preventing his lec- ture they would have been the suf- ferers in more ways than one. That their conduct in this matter is caus- ing adverse criticism Is shown by articles in Northern newspapers. A local correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger, noting the denunciations Of negroes and their announced intention to prevent Senator Tiilman from speaking in Chicago, recalls. the ral- lying cry of the Republican party in the Fremont campaign of 1865. Free Speech. Free Soil. and Freemen," and adds:
 A half century has elapsed since the EESHcuL HldNGTE Has OCCA abolished, and the principles of the Republican party have triumphed in Government policy; yet to ay we find the newly enfranchised race denounc- ing the President of the United States for the exercise of his righttul author ity in the suppression of lawiessness and insubordination, and endeavoring to suppress free speech from an an- tagonist, even admitting that he may be unfair, who has an undoubted legal right to be heard The whiriigig of time has brought about some strange changes, but few more complete in reversal of circumstances than those.
 If the repeal of the Fifteenth Amendment should become poltti- cal question of the future, the pro- ceedings of such meetings would fur nish an argument in it's favor and tend to accelerate such a movement.
 The point most worthy of attention in the foregoing extract is in the last paragraph.

Florida and Fairbanks.

Charleston News and Courier.
 When President Brown of the Tampa Fair Association gave uterance to the public prayer that his audience and himself might live to see the worthy Vice-President," MT. Fairbanks, Presi- dent of the United States, he was light headed from the toxic enthusiasm of the occasion. The Vice President was there in the flesh, and was the tallest and handsomest exhibit at the Fair, so che thicker he might lay on laudation. the richer and sweeter would be the sensation created. The crowd cheered. The crowd, by the way, always cheers. What is a crowd for, if not to cheer?
 Florida in 1908 will vote for the Democratic ticket and so 1t will do for many years to come, but a significance attaches to the Fairbanks demonstra- tion in Florida nevertheless. In a city of no other Southern States, not even in Atlanta, Ca, where the striking of a match will set the pot to "bilin'," would a speaker have ventured at a public gathering to express the wish that a Republican Vice President and candidate for President be elected President; an expression, which, if sincere. meant that the speaker would assist in promoting his election.
