The Russian Treaty Affair.
he Abilene Reporter says

The Abilene Reporter says
The Russian Ambassador to We i
ineton. George Bakhmetoff, has IN :
mated to President Taft and secre-
tary Knox that should the treaty Of
1882 be abrogated, Russia would I'M
doubleday break all friendly relations
with this country
Just what our diplomats will de
eide TO dc in this connection Is, of
course, not yet known, but II those
higher up In state affairs have the
nerve exhibited by our representa-
tives in congress, Sensitive Russia"
will soon have the chance TO try the
same bluff on Uncle Sam as she re-
Gently did on little Persia-and most
probably get far different results-if
her statesmen are so foolish as to
advise such a course.
Il is to be hoped that President
Taft will not try to maintain the
friendly relations" which so far
have resulted only in allowing Rus
sian citizens to enter and leave
America at will and while here be
accorded all the privileges of Ameri-
can citizens, and on the other hand
resulting in our ministers, mission
aries and others as we'll as American
Jews, being subjected to every in
dignity by petty Russian officials
every time they attempt to cross the
border into that nest OF anarchism,
even though they exhibit pass ports
signed by ever official Of the state
department
Mr. Bakhmetoff also states to Mr.
Taft that the abroeatlon OF the
treaty would be in consistent with
the long friendship which has ex-
listed between the two countries.
This friendship has been OF such one
sided character that Russia should be
made to pay an indemnity for IL,
rather than should the United States
fear to break IL. II will indeed be
sad state of affairs when the United
States has to allow her citizens TO
be insulted in order TO maintain the
good will of an absolute monarchy,
