OUR late minister to Russia, Charles Emory Smith, says that Russia respects the opinion of America and is not in- sensible to the voice of honest criticism. If this is true, why does not that coun- try allow American criticism to influ- | ance her in the treatment of her sub- Jects?

This is genuine charity of the most practical and useful kind, and the example which it places before the world is worthy of imitation by other millionaire: THE course pursued by the tories of Canada in their efforts to throttle the annexation movement is likely to have an effect opposite to that intended. They ave making war upon a journal recently started in Toronto to advocate continen- tal union. Newsboys are bribed not to sell it, dealers are threatened with boy- | oott if thoy keep it upon their counters and merchants are afraid to use its columns for advertising purposes. Such a policy can only rosult in the defeat of those who are responsible for it, for fair play has plenty of friends in Canada.

A formidable opposition to national inthe house of representativ and the advocates of that system ave said to be apprehen- sive of defeat in the lower branch of New York democrats have been very active in encouraging opposi- tion, and they have boen aided by the southern vepresentatives. The state delegations of Louisiana. South Caro- lina, Georgia, Virginia and other states, who are opposed to any interfer- ence on the part of the na- government with the state authorities, readily joined for with the New Yorkers and the ¢ mbina- tion is helieved to be strong endugh to defeat the bill providing for national quarantine. Iven if its opponents have not sufficient numevical strength thoy can wear out the session by filibustering . This opposition is mainly political. want national quar- antine it would take some political patronazs away from it, and the southern representatives do not want it because it would c¢ontra thoir notions about the rights of tes. Thus the welfare of the entire coun try is to ba jeopardizel for a political idea which in its application to this mat- ter is plainly ridicalous. There is not a reasonable doubs that the federal gov- ernment has a constitutional right to as- sume control of qua antine, and the ad- vantages of having & uniform system under one managemsnt ave so obvious that no ono can fail t» see them.

In arecent address he considered the question whether there is any hope that other nations willagree with the United States in the establishment of bimetalic mone He said it seemed to him that there is some hope of this on one condi- tion, namely, that by suspending the purchase of silver we force other nations, and particularly cat Britain, to vealize th grav- ity of the situation. He id that nothing was plainer to the American delegates in the conference than that | we had been doing Europe's difficult | work in this matter, and long | persist in this, said Mr. Andrews, rope will not trouble hevself about fying the world’s monetary disorders, The fact that Mr. Andrews is a friene of bimetalism weight to his views, but it doubtful if a majority of the Amer people are in sccord with him, On contrary there is reason to believe that were the question of stopping the pu | chase of silver submitted to popular vote the opposition to would be largely in the majority. The idea of forcing Great Britain or any uropean nation to a larger recognition of silver is not one that appeals strong to the American mind, and yet it become necessary in order to secure th sort of agreement respecting silve which the United States de Can we be sure that stopping the purchase of silver would result in causing Great Britain realize the gravity of the situation? It would seem that such a step is hardly necessary to accomplish this, wor is it entirely clear that it would have that effect.
