Press Comment
Make Russia Understand.

Whatever Russia may do in the
way of ignoring the provisions of
the treaty of 1882, prividing for
equality of treatment of the citizens
and subjects of the United States and
the Russian empire, we cannot af-
ford to act upon Senator Lodges sug-
gestion to enforce the treaty by ac-
ton in the way of reprisal To do
so would only furnish Russia with a
valid excuse for her further disre-
gard of the treaty, and might be the
means of making it more difficult
than ever for American citizens of
Jewish faith to visit Russia on terms
OF equality with others.
But the administration should
make Russia understand that the
United States will not longer toler-
ate unjust and uneivilized treatment

preiudgement.

The Bulletin has received com.
munications from several of its read
ers in which Pastor Richeson held in
Boston on a murder charge, is con-
demned. These letters have not
been given space, nor will they be,
because of the fact that the authors
presume to the minister to be
guilty of the charge.
The law presumes Pastor Richeson
and all other individuals held on
criminal charges to be innocent UNI
Til proven guilty beyond reasonable
doubt. Until Richeson has bden
found guilty by twelve men, 1t Is
the duty of the public to presume
him innocent, no matter how con-
vincing the evidence against him
NAV be presented In newspaper arti-
clos.
The Bulletin has not declined to
publish the letters because 1t has
formed any opinion as TO Richeson's
guilt, but because 1t is the duty of
the newspaper only to present the
facts as it is able to obtain them,
and not the personal opinions of
its staff or its readers unless the opin-
ions conform with the legal requirea
ments.
Pastor Rieheson may be guilty and
he may be innocent, but until the
question has been settled in the
courts, let us observe his legal rights

NEW TRICK IN MILLINERY
Long Strings Of Black Velvet Are

This Season.

"Straws show which way the wind
blows" So, also, do the little bonnets

waved and puffed couture and engar-
landed with myosotis, and the large
tagaIs lined with felt, that have quite
taken the place of almost all other
forms of headgear during the last few
weeks.
Every one of them have long
strings of black velvet which are tied
at the side and at the back and have
thin long ends floating, or caught with
a jeweled pin high over the bust and
ON the left side.
The sleeve" string Is simply a very
long loop of broad velvet ribbon,
through which the arm is slipped. 1t
hangs loosely on the left side under
the arm.

probable popularity. but withal seems
