FRIDAY . JANTJABY 8, 1904.
Yesterday the Christians of the
Greek church celebrated their
Christmas and the natal day of
the pentle Nazarine was to be
devoted to the pleasing task of
exterminating tne ancient ene
mies of the faith. In blood
stained Kishineff 40,000 of God's
chosen people ' wait in terror and
dismay the coming of the holy
day that is supposed to bring
peace on earth, good will to man.
The horror of the situation is
said to be almost beyond compre
hension. Up to the present mo
ment no word has been received
from Kishineff. and as yet we
know not whether to weep in
pity for the murdered dead, or
laugh in derision at the huge joke
perpetrated on us by the yellow
press. The President, Congress,
the Pulpit and the Press, have
been asked to unite in pleadings
to the Russian government to
avert the dire calamity. The
beam in our own eyes pales into
insignificance beside the mote in
that of our inhuman neighbor.
What if Russia has just sen
tenced twenty-five : zealous jew-
baiters to a living death in Siberia
for participating in the former
trouble in Kishineff? What if
the Czar asks us how many
Americans guilty of burning ne
eroes at the stake we have pun
ished? Tell him to mind his
own business. Only last week a
thousand frenzied men in civ
ilized Iowa tried to get a couple
negroes out of jail to enact the
leading parts in a friendly barbe
cue. We have heard of no peti
tions to Congress against this out
rage. In our own town the
proselytes of a new faith have
rendered themselves objection
able to some zealous exemplars of
the old, and a coat of tar and
feathers is administered and or
ders given to emigrate. And
still we weep for the imaginary
wrongs of the people we know
not, and smile at the ' 'acts of
justice" at our own doors. "Oh
would some power the Giftie gie
us to see our sels as ithers see us."

Pity the sorrows of the poor
heart-broken democrats. They
want a candidate and can't get
him. Hill is too bad and Cleve
land too good. Bryan too risky
and Gorman too tricky. Parker
too little known, Hearst too well
known. And now the last prop
on which the conservative ele
ment hoped to lean has given
way. Olney has killed his own
boom by nominating Cleveland
at the recent McClellan love-feast
in New York City. Poor fel
lows. A great big party, but
