The ominous new from Russia,
following the assassination OF Z rime
Minister S%tolypin, forecasts a general
massacre of the Jews in Russia, who
number about seven million. These
tidings have caused a stiffening up of
the Jewish consciousness throughout
the world, in dread expectation Of a
repetition of the kiShinev horror.
Christians, too, are especially con-
cerned, not only because of their
common humanity, but also because
the attention of Christian leaders mas,
Of late, been especially directed to-
ward Russia by the attempts Of the
Baptist World Conference to send a
mission to the Car. and to establish
an educational institution in st. Pc
tersburg. Coming as it does on the
heels of the recent Zionist Congress,
this threatened anti-Semitic outburst
opens up a number Of important and
interesting questions.

no recent outbreak of Importance

our time. Bloody Sunday was pre-
mature, although it made many revo-
lutionists. Now we want to avoid re-
peating that mistake. We mean to be
ready when the mex revolution comes.
We have not attacked the

tic new device is to have the ante

police the revOlutiOnists may escape
by various hidden passages, while the
invaders are destroyed by an e1pio-
sion. A large part Of the student
body-and there are no brighter or
mere forceful students anywhere than
in Russia-are casting their fortunes
in with the revo~lutionists.
The opportunity which these revo-
lutionists seek may come in the case
of trouble in the Far East. If Rus
sia's present plan to invade China and
Seize Manchuria and part of Mongo-
liza, is developed to the point of an
open declaration there would proha-
