The Jews Of the World.
London lIatLu Netps. !


Mr. +. d. ATocatta in his recent interesting
lecture on Judaism estimated the total number
of Jews throughout the world as between 6, 000,-
600 and l0O01,0O0 In the United Kingdom
there are about 100000, Of whom seven tenths
are in London, the great part of the remainder
being III Manchester, Liverpool, Leeds and Bir-
mingham. Scotland reckons only 1900, Ire
land only 1000. On the British colonies there
are something less tlan 10000. In France
there are 10000, of whom 10000 are in Paris.
About 10000 were transferred upon the annex
alton OF the provinces TO the German Empire,
among whose 500000GJ of inhabitants 600 900
belong 20 this remarkable race. Jews are found
in large numbers along the northern coasts of
Africa, as well as in Abyssinia. In America
there are 100000, and Jews are dwelling in
Mexico and in almost every State of South
America. There are supposed TO be from 10000
to $4,000 in Persia, 10000 to 1900 in the
Khanates, and like number in India. Swift
zerland, Belgium and Holland have also con
siderable Jewish population. The influx of
Jews into Palestine from other parts of the
Turkish domini0ns and also from Poland, Rus
STA and Central Euro. which has hSen going
on from the early par, Of the present century,
is noteworthy FACT. The Turkish Govern
ment is described as showing an entire toera-
ton, but 1T Is not now favorable to an immi-
grafton into Palestine, circumstance attrib-
uted to fear of the irroad of European ideas.

I'm TYPES.
The County Printing.

All over Kansas the county printing
was let at from 80 cents to S1.OO per
square In this county it was let for
40 cents per square, and yet the Kirwin
Independent and Logan Freeman are
growing that it was not given out at
ten cents per square and taken of into
one corner Of the county, greatly to
the inconvenience Of the public. The
editors Of those papers well know that
30 cents per square is a reasonable
price, and it looks like they are indeag-
orng, without just cause, to create pre-
judice against the Commissioners d.
Neither the Independent nor Freeman
are q whit better friends to the masses
than the HERALD, nor are they more
steadfast opposers Of monopoly or
crOokedness in politics. This paper
stands for the right and opposes the
wrong, at all times and under all cir
cumstances so far as we are able to
understand the right and discover the
wrong, and it boldly proclaims itseh
as beng as strong an anti-mOnOpoly
journal and as true to the best interests
of the people as our esteemed contem
poraries at Logan and Kirwin. As to
the county printing We repeat what we
have said heretofore that the legal rates
CSl.OO per square, are too high, and
the law should be amended, and Mr..
Boyd should have had the rates cut
down when he was in the Legislature,
one half. Fifty cents n square is a
good big price. Thirty to forty cents
per square for first insertion, half that
much for the second Insertion is reason
able. This our Kirwin and Logan con-
temporaries know. Then why do they
say that the people are being ''rObbed"
because the printing was let at forty
cents per square. Gentlemen. let US
be honest and fair about this matter,
and not distort the truth and mislead
the people. 1t is surely not the pro-
vince Of anti-mOnOpOly papers TO mis-
represent honest officers, TO insist that
county printing shall be done at loss
to the publisher, and to raise the false
cry that the people are to be robbed.
Fair remuneration for honest labor
performed is one Of the planks in the
anti-mOnOpoly platform we believe in.
Come gentlemen the HERALD is ready
to tackle to the best of its ability
wrongs wherever found, but declines
TO Join IN the howl that the local news
papers ought 70 do public printing for
ten cents per square, or at loss for
the labor performed.
Phillipsburg herald. [volume] (Phillipsburg, Kan.) 1882-1905, 1888-01-27

The public knows that a few weeks
ago the HERALD refused to advertise
the Police Gazette, and the Dispatch
of this place severely reprlmanded us
in lengthy article, and championed
the cause of the sporting paper.
Last week the editor Of the Dispatch
got a letter from Richard X. Fox, ed
itor and proprietor Of the Police Gazette
$50 we are informed) cOmplimenting
him for his warm endorsement OF his
paper, and telling him that he (Fox)
would send him the Gazette one year
free. Now we do not deny the right
of the Dispatch man to take the Police
Gazette or any other paper, but he
must not deny our right 10 decline to
insert as an advertisement its prOspec-
tus. He did deny Us that right, and
that is what this little argument is
about. For our part we do not believe
that lewd pictures, the defense of the
saloon business and Of prize-fghting
and the general teaching Of those
sporting papers, are the proper things
TO put into the hands of the young.

That is to say, your lungs. Also

One Of the encouraging signs Of the
times is that the influential Republican
papers like the Chicago Tribune, the
Toledo Blade, the Omaha Bee, the
Atchison Champion, and many others,
are preaching anti-monopoly doctrines
and progressive repubHcanism. Re
publican members OF Congress are max
ing haste 10 introduce bills to euro the
ills the country complains Of, and all
along the line there is evidence that the
COrrupLionists, and old AlOss-backs in
the party are losing their grip, and the
friends Of the masses are coming to the
front. Our hope and belief is that Re-
pubhcans will yet be the men who will
solve the capital and labor problems.

The Logan Freemen has figured up
what the County has lost in not accept
ing its proposition to do the county
printing Now the editor of that pa
per knows that the work cannot be
prohtably done at ten cent, per square,
and it is clear enough to all that he did
not expect to get the work to do and
put in a nominal bid SO that ne could
manufacture some political thunder.
Why does he not offer TO do the COUn-
ty Treasurer's or Register OF Deeds
work for one-tenth the fees allowed by
law, and because his offer is not Rc-
cepted figure out what the county has
lost by not accepting his proposition.
He can Just as consistently offer to per-
form the duties of any county officer
for One-tenth legal rates, and move the
said county offices to Logan, as to offer
to do the county printing at ten per
cent and refuse TO establish the official
paper ut the county seat.

Congressman Anderson of this
state seems to be doing some good
work. His resolutions ordering an M
vestigation Of the Reading strike Is
causing CONSERVATION among the mon
opolists. The Atchison Champion
says OF Anderson's resolutions: This is
an attack the insolenJ coal barOns
hardly expected, So long as they had
starving men TO deal with they had
things their own way. but with a COM
mittee OF the national congress after
them they will quickly be in the atti-
tude of supplLeants. These rich hogs
have ruled their domain of railroads
and coal lands with an iron hand. No
car of all the Russias could be more
intolerant and arbitrary than these des-
pots, and the country will commend
Mr.. Anderson for the step he has taken
for the protection of honest labor.

The KirRin Chief, Of last week, gave
it as its opinion that ''the county PRINT
ing might have been let for lower
figure than 40 per cent of legal rates.
That is possible if the printing had
been sent away from the county seat.
But Mr.. c BORN, one of the propri-
etors of the Chief, while in this office
one day last week, stated that 40 cents
per square was honestly not enough
compensation for the service. In JUS
rice to Mr.. Born we wish to say that he
was not 1T Kirwin last week, and what
was said by the Chief was written pre-
sumabiy by his partner. All along we
have commended that 80 cents per
square, or half what the law allows, is
good pay and that SIS and one third to
80 cents is very reasonable.
