sBARBARous SUPERSTITION.

.World-wide attention is being d.

ritual murder: For many centuries
the belief has persisted in the minds
Of ignorant and superstitious people

oyer. wer in the habit Of killing a
Christian youth and mingiing his blood
With the passover bread. Perhaps it is
n1t strange that such a belief should
hkye prevailed in the dark ages, when
religious fanatics were in the habit Of
charging each other with the most
terrible crimes. but that there should
ba such a belief today in any country
called civilized passes understanding.
5It..is q fact, however. that this belief
sdtia exists in. certain sections Of Rus

Immediately the cry of ritual murder
was started, and a Jewish resident was
arrested on suspicion Of having COM
mitted the murder. All the facts which
have been ascertained point quite
clearly to the probability that the boy
was killed by members Of a gang of
thieves who thought that the lad had
spied them, and had told, or intended
to tell, of facts which would make
trouble for them. Two police officers
who were placed in charge Of the case
have been removed because they re-
ported facts tending to show that the
boy met his death in this manner
One of them was imprisoned because
he did not report that the case was
n of ritual murder, and the impris-
oned Jew the guilty person. \ third
official seems to have been more re-
gardful of the wishes of his superiors.
and he has reported in accordance
with their desires. The Jewish "sus-
pect," a Door a awaits trial under
these preposterous circumstances.

led to more than one outbreak of the
peasantry against the Jews. and ev-
erything that had come to light indi-
Gates a purpose on the part of official
Russia TO press this case to such a
co%nclusiuon that the lot OF the Jews
will be in%tolerable. 1t is difficult to
understand how such things can he
in a country which calls itself Chris
tian. Still. we have only to look back
a few centuries to find men in our
own New England who were far above
the present Russian %peasantry in in
telligence ~persecuting i%noffensive peo-
pie for witchcraft. Sometimes the
world seems to move very slowly.

NrERpEpENDENCE:.

When we boast of our independence
ne are really interdependent. No man
live. to himself alone land no nation
can proceed in disregard of the acts
If its neishbors. Politically the Uni
ted States and Canada are entirely
se~parate, and neither has voice IN
the affairs Of the other. Yet the poll
flea, affairs of each are Influenced not
a little by what goes on across the
border.
The framing and passage Of h re-
~ciprocity bill a few years 8 set can
ada afiane. with interest. The Laurier
risked Its existence on Ca
adian approval Of that BILL and lost
whether the conservatives would nave
come into power in any event does not
matter. The reciprocity plan was made
the tssue. and on that issue the liberals
ware defeated. President Taft made
reciprocity a personal matter. and
there IL no; doubt that the refusal OF
the Canadians to accept the bargain
vhich he had rendered contributed to
Taft's defeat. It cannot be said that II
the Canadians had accepted the agree
ment Taft would have been elected.
We have no e Of knowing. But
the reception accorded h bill on the
other side Of the line left Taft with a
bargain on his hands without means
Of demonstrating what the thing would
do II put into practice.
We have just made a new tariff law
which lowers. while 1t does not repeal
the duty on wheat from Canada. But
It 10 made possible in the bill for the
Canadian government to secure the
entire removal Of. that duty by re-
moving the duty on wheat imported
from this country. Again the subject
involved the fate Of MINISTRIES. The
vestsrn farmers wish tho duty remov-
Cd, IN order that they may have the
advantass OF the wider market and
better marketing fanilitie.. The local
railroads and the great milling COM
panias, Of which Canada has . num-
her, oppose the removal Of the duty.
for they wish to retain tho handling
of the wheat. Both sides r putting
pressure. on the Border administration.
and tho liberals are taking courage
and propose to mako the tariff with
this country the issue in the first by
election to be held. It would not be
stranger than many other things in
history II the Borden government
should ride to defeat on the very steed
that carried It to victory such . little
while ago.
