While the summer pogroms were in full swing, the Novoye Vremya, reflecting the views of the official spheres, seriously formulated the Jewish question in the paraphrase of Hamlet: "to beat or not to beat."
Russians complain somewhat tardily of the prevalence of the same system among themselves. "Every day," writes the Novoye Vremya, "fresh details are leaking out respecting a certain German firm, ideal in its resourcefulness, which succeeded in spreading a vast net over all Russia.
The voice of the hostile press, the Novoye Vremya, the Russ, and others, resounded through the air with fall vigor, whereas the liberal press, owing partly but only partly to the tightening grip of the censor, defended the Jews in a perfunctory manner.
