Berlin. An uprising against the Jews of "Rustok" [Rostok] brought the destruction of a hundred and thirty Israelite homes. This makes us remember the horrendous persecutions carried out by Russian mobs a while ago.
Are we in the nineteenth century or are we shrouded in the shadows of the Inquisition and the most outsize religious intolerance? Such cruel attempts on the inviolate rights of the human personality must be punished by the law unremittingly.

Today Jerusalem acts as the miserable capital of a province in Asian Turkey and as the residence of a military governor, a chief of police, a superintendent of Omar's Mosque, a Latin patriarch, a Greek one, an Armenian one, a Chief Rabbi and several consuls. Hardly twenty thousand persons inhabit it, among them eight thousand Jews. The Latins, almost every one clergy, dwell in "Ramich" (?) near the city and in Bethlehem, submitting to the patriarch who resides at St. Saviour's Convent. The Muslims sleep on terraces under multicoloured tents or by the citadel's gates. The Greeks moil and cook their delicacies inside the Church of the Holy Sepulchre. The Protestant mission devotes itself to teaching and walks among these and those, circumspect, stern and reserved.
Meanwhile the eight or ten thousand Israelites, crowded between Mount Zion (where the Turks camp) and the Mosque, are silent and await Messiah's advent with undeniable tenacity. Almost all arrive in Jerusalem weighed down by old age and settle there for to die in the sacred land and be buried in the Valley of Josaphat where their elders' bones rest. These members of a great people unruffled and austere (for whom lofty destinies yet wait, according to St. Paul) keep saying their prayer every day facing toward the spot where their temple stood in past centuries, for the Muslims who occupy the site presently bar their access to it. A peerless perseverance that evokes respectful compassion and causes even the most radical orthodox observer to forget the sins, errors and hubris of the so-called deicides!
The biblical groves of Gethsemane, Bethlehem and Bethania are withered, the summits desolate and the roads laden with dust. The arid plain (?) of Josaphat lies off to one side; some caves open their dark mouth in yellowish ravines and serve as lairs for Bedouins or for jackals.
In the middle of this sinister landscape immortal Jerusalem basks in the sun, seated on her four mountains (Zion, Akra, Ophel and Moriah) like a voiceless sphynx lying on the bedsheet of the desert. Forlorn and barren, ensconced in a bifold of stone-strewn Judea, with a demeanor more of death than of life, with less a trace of dwelling than of sepulchre, Jerusalem still overwhelms all peoples and nations who perceive in her a great tumbledown majesty but who fret instinctively that some day they might spy a new legion of spirits storm out of her gates to shatter and do away with the decrepit fabric of our contemporary society.
This eternal city—damnéd or blessed—has a supernatural aura and its name, vibrating deep in our hearts, induces religious dread even upon those who lean toward denial or doubt.

Last week Bucharest hosted an Antisemitic Congress that lasted three days. Here are its resolutions in document format.
The International Antisemitic Congress held in Bucharest approves and resolves to circulate and execute what follows:(1) The Jews are deemed unworthy of staying in the midst of the peoples of Europe any longer.
(2) Until methods to expel them from European states are found, the Congress lays down for its adherents of Romania, France, Hungary and potentially other nations the task of petitioning their governments and parliaments:
(a) to proscribe any concession to Jews by a State, district or commune, even if the Jews resort to the use of aliases.
(b) to refuse Jews, insurance companies, banks, etc., any job, project or posting remunerated by a State, district or commune.
(c) to ban the sale of property to Jews and to bar them from leasing lands, houses or mills from others or to others.
(d) To preclude Jews opening shops, restaurants, lodgings, hotels, cafeterias, taverns, distilleries or wine stores. To prohibit their being bakers, spice sellers, grain merchants, doctors or pharmacists.
(e) to pressure priests and ministers of every religion to spread these ideas among their parishioners, and to pressure academics or teachers to not buy in Jewish stores or hire their services.
All nations that embrace these resolutions must pressure their government to enact germane laws and create committees that demand the expedition of these resolutions in every country by means of popular referenda.

Vienna, 20. Antisemitic demonstrations have reoccurred in "Dumaszendaheley" (?) under cover of the political elections being held here.
Many candidates ran solely on the platform of being an enemy of the Jews, whom they unjustly blame for all the country's ills.
Arsonists set fire to the Jewish neighbourhood; some eighty Hebrew families were left homeless in the greatest misery.
The bloody persecution of Israelites in Hungary had no recent precedent.
The affluent families of rural towns contemplate emigration in light of the abuses they are subjected to.

A curious statistic about the Israelite colony in the United Kingdom has been published in London.
It turns out that the Jews enjoy in that country two priceless boons: health and wealth.
Great Britain tallies 7,700,000 families, ten thousand are Jewish.
For every two thousand five hundred Christian families no more than one enjoys an annual income equal to or greater than ten thousand pounds whereas one out of every one hundred Israelite families does.
In other words, there teems about the figures of the Rothschilds and Montefiores a swarm of little Croesi whose fortunes altogether would relieve the biggest debt of a State.
From a hygienic perspective the statistic also reveals that the Jews have a notable advantage over the Christians of Great Britain. The cases of longevity are seven to eight times more frequent among Jews than among Christians.

Mr. Anatole Beaulieu the expert economist publishes an article on current events in Revue des Deux Mondes, particularly the problem of antisemitism.
The following data on the distribution of the Israelite population around the globe is extracted from said article.
The emancipation of this ill-starred race was decreed in 1791 in France with the intervention of Mirabeau, the abbot Grégoire, Duport and Robespierre foremost.
Most European nations imitated France's example, albeit slowly. England proclaimed the emancipation of its Jewish population gradually over the period 1845-1858; Denmark in 1849; Austria-Hungary in 1867; Italy in 1868 and in 1870; Germany and Switzerland in 1869; Bulgaria in 1878 and Serbia in 1879.
Russia and Romania on the eastern flank of Europe, and Spain and Portugal on the western, are the only peoples of the continent who still deny Israelites the rights enjoyed by Christians.
Russia and Romania harbor more Jews than the rest of Europe altogether. The Muscovite empire has one half of all Jews on its territories.
The precise number of Israelites in all these countries is unknown. Mr. Beaulieu estimates there are eight to nine million Jews worldwide, seven million in Europe.

Judaism can not soar more or Spaniards plummet lower.
The perfidious and despicable Jewish race who crucified Jesus; who was a powerful and perpetual ally of the Saracens during the Reconquista campaign; who had several secret dealings with African Moors to persuade them to invade and occupy our nation anew; who had managed to snatch the revenue and the most important and rewarding posts of Spain using detestable ruses; who made herself loathsome to every Christian over the centuries because of her heresies and folly; who stirred our most religious and prudent Kings to sweep her off our country as so much pestilence and rubbish, and who is currently being expelled from various European nations by Protestant and schismatic Governments alike;—that perverse Jewish race is gradually sneaking back into our house in hypocritical and cunning fashion to eventually become the lady of the noose and of the blade and the landlady of lives and finances and, as did the feudal lords of old, demand from us tribute and vassalage.
Like scavenging birds, but in good order and concert and assisted by the full might and influence of universal Masonry, the Jews firstly swooped down on barbarian nations such as Turkey, Egypt and Tunisia, which they already possess.
Presently they set up shop in Paris, Vienna, London and Berlin to commandeer all the wealth of Europe through International Financial Commissions. They aim their attacks primarily against Greece, Portugal and Spain where day by day they attain greater ascendancy and subjugating influence.
If the Jews have twenty-four prefects or governors in France plus a good portion of the newspapers, in Spain there are many Judaizers who with greater or lesser gall render favour to Judaism in the press, on the rostrum and possibly in other spheres or civil service positions.
The Jews impose on Spanish Governments when these must negotiate a loan. As La Verdad of Castellón states,2 the Jews here are already landlords over half of the Peninsula; they have managed to take over all Railway Companies and they will eventually take over everything and kick us out of this blessed land which the Virgin Mary sanctified and on which so many martyrs of the Religion and of the fatherland spattered their blood.
And to show that we do not exaggerate, we will transcribe this juicy little paragraph published by a French newspaper, The Northern Cross,
In the partitioning of Spain among the children of Israel the Andalusian railways have been allotted to Hirsch Junior, the northern ones to Camondo, and the State's finances to Rothschild of London.
But if Judaism can not soar higher, neither can Spaniards dive lower. It seems incredible that the fatherland of Pelayo, Ramiro, Fernando III, El Cid, Jaime de Aragón, Guillén de Entenza, Perez del Pulgar and of the Catholic Kings must perforce bear the ignominious yoke and humiliating leash of the accursed race of Judah! Incredible it seems that the people of Covadonga, Clavijo, Gormaz, Roncesvalles, Otumba, El Bruch, Tunisia and Tetouan should accede to bend their proud cervix and render homage to the greedy sons of Jacob, whom our forefathers looked upon with disdain and whom they allocated stall space in our markets solely out of pity! Incredible it seems that the tattered Israelites have transmuted from beggars to millionaires, from vanquished to victors!
Honest and Catholic Spain must thank Masonry for all this since the Jews avail themselves of this odious sect to further their plots of treacherous conquest and massive plunder.
Presently the Masons and their sympathizers must be rejoicing—they who contested our most pious Kings' expulsion of the Israelites from Spain so acridly and who endeavoured to open the doors of our fatherland to them with those clauses in the Constitutions of 1869 and 1875 that enshrined freedom of religion.
Liberalism is what has returned the Jewish rabble to Spain once more. They arrive not only with their inherited and eternal hatred of Christ and his Church but with the idea of dominating everything and making us their slaves.
And additionally Europe presently owes the epidemic of morbid Asiatic cholera to them, as has been archly verified.
