It is not likely that the persecutions of the Jews in Russia are yet ended.

The recent proclamation of General Ignatieff, the Russian Minister of the Interior, who has been charged with the duty of allaying the difficulty, seems more like an approval of the disturbance than like an effort to enforce the law. With the tacit encouragement of this paper from one so high in station, the persecutions are likely to break out again at any moment. It seems to be an unpardonable offence in Russia as well as in Germany to know how to make and save money better than the Slavs and Teutons do.
