MAJOR ORNE'RAL GRANT
Jour' A. itIAWN4I. A. A. O. •
They-find it very difficult task to fur
nish a satisfactory explanal of this
"outrageous edict. and w e imagine
that they will find it equally difficult
to induce any jew who respects him
self or his religion,• to support the
man Rho has thus insulted and at
tempted to disgrace them in the eyes
of the world Some of their papers
Clink they can smooth the matter
over, by saying that the order only
tifeant to apply t the "mean men of
the Jews," and not to them generally.
It tlril is so, why does the first sen
tence of the order read, "the Jews as
a dam violating every regulation of
trade &e , are hereby expelled from
the department ?" I f it was intend
oniy for a 'certain portion of them,
why was it wrison so as to iitelbde
all persons belinging to that class of
people? If it was designed to effect
poly there violating the regulations
of trade, why does 11 not ,ay so?—
' There no way of explaining it on
this ground, for it won't bear an ex•
planation; the language is to plain,
and the distinction th it Mongrel sup
porters,of GRANTlMlkehetweert those
"violating the laws of trade," and
those who did not, cannot be squeezed
out of the order,.for it makes no such
distinction. It imply a wholesale
ostracism—driving them out _as ."4

following Or, example set by christian
camp followers, were violating the
"regulations of trade."
tier can it be white-washed, as oth
er papers of that party are trying, by
asserting that, the order was issued
without the knowledge of fittat,rr
during his absence—and that the offi
cer issuing it "was reprinianded, and
the order revoked as soon as General
GRANT returned to bin headquarters."
If he issued-an order reveling it,why
don't these papers furnish it? They
could get it among the papers of the
department, just as easily as the orig
inal order was secured. The fact is,
GRANT was not absent, there was no
reprimand j aad the order was NEVER
REVOKED. As long as GRANT was
in corn man l i of that department,Jews
sere not allowed to enter the lineupf
his army, even to see friends who

ilia hatred of that "class" of citizens,
who hate been decided and abused
the world over, on account of their
religion, is as bitter and malignant as
that of a majority of the party that
supports him is of any and all classes
of foreigners.

going on in this congressional district
