R US'SIA ’S I NH U M A N GO VERNAIENT The latest advices from Russia; abundantly confirm all that has been reported in regard to the cruel persecution not of the Jews .alone but of Christian dissenters from the Russian Orthodox church. Heedless of the lessons of history, Russia is attempting to establish unanimity of religion by methods that savor of the ages of Nero and Diocletian. The unhappy Jews have been driven in thousands from Moscow, and their expulsion has been attended by incidents of cruelty and inhumanity that in these closing years of the nineteenth century seem almost in- credible. Neither helpless childhood nor venerable age has excited the pity of the persecutors. The Russian government and its official tools know no mercy when dealing with the Jews. The accounts of the Stundist persecution are no less abhorrent to all who believe in liberty of conscience. The Stundists are faithful subjects of the Czar; but because they do not adhere to the or- thodox faith, and choose to worship in their own way, without disturbing the public peace or interfering with the worship of others, they are being treated with brutal out-rage, thoir homes broken up and their property seized. Later advices indicate that the German Lutherans, who live chiefly in the Baltic provinces, will not long enjoy the partial toleration which the Russian Government has extended to them, largely for fear of ex- citing German indignation. Several of their pastors have been imprisoned on flimsy pre- texts, the real reason being that they were energetic in preaching and spreading the Lutheran faith, and measures for" subjecting Lutherans to various disabilities are report- ed to be in preparation. The spectacle :hus lpresented by Russia can not iail to weaken the sympathy that would otherwise be felt for that nation in the event of an attack up- on her by her enemies in Europe. Even to such a huge and powerful empire the favor- able opinion of civilized mankind is of no inconsiderahle importance. THE speech delivered by Sir John Thomp- son in Torcnto last Thursday evening will be found in another column of this issue. Sm Jonx Tnoursos and sevéral of his colleagues will address a public meeting in Toronto On Friday evening. Their utter- ances will be listened to and read with much interest. THE snowstorm that. ended on Monday evening was by no means the heaviest on re- cozd, but it was just heavy enough to give the old\est inhabitant’s torpid recollection a little vigorous and exhilarating exercise. THE news which was flashed across the cauntry on Monday' morning, to the effect that J ames Gillespie Blaine was dying, was sad news to the people of the United States. He was by all odds their most brilliant statesman. THE dominion government: has decided to investigate the charge that Internal Rev- anue Officer Cosgrove signed an annexation document. He says he didn’t and others say he did. If he is guilty he will be fired, and quite properly, too. ' IT is report that Mr. A. B. Ingram, M.P., in to be appointed postmaster of St. Thomas. We don’t know whether the report is cor- rect or not, but if it be, then our old friend An fly is' to be congratulated on having sense enough to take, care of his own good self. THE Cobouzfg World says that E. E. Shep- pard was beaten in his fight for the mayor- alty of Toronto because the Empire support~ ed him.

Tan political parties appear to be gettiav' lady for the local elections which the Tor- onto Newx says wlll take place when the flowers bloom in the spring. In North 0n- tario, T. W. Chapple has been nominated by the grits and J amen Glendenning by the tories. In “'est. York J. W. St. John has been put up by thetories, and in a number of other constituencies conventions have been called for the nomination of candidates. Mn. J. J. B. FLIx'r, police .3 agistrate of Belleville, has rendered a. decision so the effect that the act of the Ontario leglslature. of 1892, relating to frauds on butter and cheese factories, is Imperative. He says : “ My opinion is that the recent act referred to has rendered the prior act. and all other sets in Ontario referring to supplying milk to Iactoriesof little or no value.» I an: of the opinion from experience in trying very many case of fraud in supplying milk, that- it is now, under the act- of 1892, almost im- possible to secure a. convicoion in any case. Factories are practically, so far as regards ‘she Ontario ecu-unprotected. EDI TORI A L- N0 TES. To Show the Government is Not Almld to Arrest Anyoneâ€"France ls Bound to Sit: the Scandal. PARIS, Jan. 9. -M . Clemenceau was, at his own request, examined by Magistrate F ranqueville to-day in relation to his know- ledge of Panama. Canal matters. The exam- ination lasted a long time. No details have been given to the public. M. Baihut, Ex-Minister 01 public works,’ was put under arrest to-day after a long in- terview with Magistrate Franqueville. Baihut has heretofore been allowed to go under surveillance. The authorities are said to have been moved to sterner measures by reports coupl- ing President Curnot’s name with that of Baihut, the arrest being intended to prove that; the Government is no; afraid to take aceion againet agyone. " ~ . 4 'll Charles de Lessepc has givcn to M. Franqueville, examiningr magistrate, a. pock- etbook in which he kept- notes concerning the relations of the canal company to many public mcn. ‘l‘he. notes are in cipher, but M. de Lesseps has added a. key by which all have been translated. The consequent evid- ence is exceptionally important. It shows conclusively the connections of the company. The celebrated writers on economic and in- ternational questions and two cit-Ministers are said to be among those compromised. These revelations are expected to lead to more arrests. The Ambassador Reports a Revolution in France Probably. ROME, J an.9â€"Senor Rossman, Italian am- bassador in Paris, has sent to the Govern- ment avery pessimistic despatch as to the state of feeling in France on the eve of the reassemblipgqf the Chambers. v 1 , A_L_ The crisis, he says, has reached an acute stage, which quite possibly may be followed by revolution.

There is considerable eXcitement in the dressed hog market, and high as prices have already climbed, the. opinion in the trade is that they will be higher still.‘ Sales of ear lots have been in this market at $8.25 to $835 per 100 11)., but on the basis of the extravagant demands of holders west of ‘ Toronto they could not sold at those prices here (30-day. Choice heavy shipping hogs in Chicago have sold as high as >37 15 per 100 lbs. live weight. So that in comparison with prices in the “'estern States, dressed hogs in Montreal are cheap at $8.25 to $8.50 notwithstanding that they are higher than for years past. A scarcity in the hog supply similar to that now experienced occurred in 1886 when dressed hogs were sold in Toronto by the car load at $10.50 and over, and in Montreal at $11.00 and over. 'l‘o-day there is great strength in the market, and 'West- ern shippers do not; seem to know how high to make a. firm offer at. Prices are also very irregular; holders at different points, but with the same freight rate to Montreal, asking figures that are considerably apart, Of course the high price of hogs in Chicago has caused a sharp advance in the price of pork, which could, not. be laid down here from Chicago yesterday at- under $21.40 per bbl. for new regular mess. Some good turns have been made recently by Montreal operators in pork in Chieago.â€"â€"’I'rade Bulle- tin. TO ADOPT STERNER M EAS UR ES. Foresters’ Insurance. OTTAWA, Ont., Jan. 9.-â€"T)r.
