.RUSSIES DISCRIMINATION
AGAINST AMERICAN CITIZENS

Many Americans Of Ugh c1.rac-
ter, Jews and Gentilcs, who lcsire
to go to Russia, provided with
American passports which are
honored in every cOur:ry on the
face Of the globe, have been
barred by the Russian government,
in violation Of the Treaty of
1882. But if criminal wants to
go to Russia and tell the Russian
consul in this country that he is
Christian, he will he admitted
without the slightest difficulty.
If prominent scientist, author,
jurist, banker or statesman wants
to go to Russia he must first pass
the religious test Mt the Russian
consulate here. 1.-THE religion Of
the applicant does not satisfy the
Russian consul, the American can
not pass the Russian frontier.
If the American happens to be
very prominent and applies to the
Russian Minister Of the Interior
for special permit to enter this
may be Issued and he Russian
consul will be instruct, I'd to wise
the passport. But tGis vcry ex-
ceptiOn Takcs RuS>iP S policy of
discrimination all the more

citizen.
The treaty of 1892 wns not
made merely for prominent
Americans who happen to suit the
likes of the Russian Minister of
the Interior. 1t WIS made for the
American people, regardless of
their creed or colo, or the
prominence Of their position in the
community.
When tho Russian government

American Ambassador to Turkey,

Ministry of the Interior issued
circular to the effect tn t Mr..

Jewish persuasion. Mr.. Straus
resented the exception that Russia
was willing to make in his case
and abandoned his p an of visit

Should Cardinal Gibbons lcsirc

ATTORNEYS REPORT MONDAY.
Disposition of Paving Contract to Rest
Upon Recommendations.

City Attorney Ramsey will tomor-
row complete his report on the legal
status of the bids recently received
by the city commissioners on the 125
blocks paving contract, and 1t is high
ly probable that the commissioners
will either let the contract Tuesday
morning or reject all bids, the exact
disposition depending upon the rec
ommendation of the city attorney. 1t
IS contended by some that the Eureka
Company's bid, which is lower than
that of the Cleveland Trinidad or the
Parker Washington Companys is
above the engineers estimate on most
Of the paving, and is therefore illegal
The letting of the contract has been
postponed at three different meetings
of the city commissioners in order to
allow time to investigate the legality
of the bids. this being by far the big
gest single paving contract ever given
out by the city.

G.aua Hall for Reelection.

With this issue Of the Sentinel Mr..
Claud Hail makes known his inter-
ton to ask a reelection at the hands
of the people of Grenada, to the Office
of Marshal. The Sentinel but repeats
the universal sentiment OF the town in
saying Mr.. Hall has made an honest,
faithful and industrious official. He is
transformations, is q man of but few
words, but has fixed IDEAS and no charge
of Sinking duty or of evading an Off
cial obligation can be successfully
brought againrt him. He manifests
the right spirit regarding law enforce
ment and the legal transgressor finds
no ally in him. 1t reelected, Mr.. Hall
will doubtless be as true to his duties
in the future as in the past. He was
born and reared in Grenada and is I'M
doubtedly in sympathy with real pro-
gression and those things that tend to
build up good citizenship.
The Sentinel feels that Mr.. Halls
candidacy will be duly considered by
the voters of the city.

Boys, get all the wholesome pleasure
you can, but obey the laws and act abe

Are we doing what we a TO stimu-
late our boys to lead clean lives and to
obey the laws? In many cases charac-
ter building with the boy is the work
of the mother, the father forgetting
his duty to his On. Every manly man
should endeavor to elevate his W
neighbours son. Whether you profess
to be a christian or not, good citizen

standard of every boy. Let every man
who has forgotten his duty to his moth
er, to his country and to his God, de-
termine that on the first day of Janu-
airy he will begin anew and help the
dear boy to rise above the low level OF
the vulgarian; encourage him to obey
the laws, to be a gentleman.
The lamented DR.. Knapp we'll under

country depends; and what are we doing
for them? We should conserve the
best that is in them. andEendeavor to
build them up day by day. The boys
are watching US and by our influence
many of them will go to the bad. What
can be done to help youth? Catch the
blind tiger, the pistol toter, the gam
bling hell and those who sell goods on
Sunday. These things are all done in
defiance of the laws of God and man,
and the guilty parties have no respect
for thems lives nor for the community
in which they live. Would a gentle
man be guilty of these violations? An
