.JEUISH REFORMERS.

4 movement is in progress at the present
moment among the Hebrews in Great Britain
to convert their sabbath into our Sunday, TO
ABOLISH or, at any rate, to modify, the strict
regulations concerning foods and faSts, and to
bring about other reforms Of minor impor-
tance that will enable them more completely
to merge themselves into the community III
which their lot is cast. OF course, there are a
certain number Of Hebrews OF the old school
who bitterly contest tho projected changes, and
who denounce any departure from the strict
letter Of the rabbinical law. But their opp0Sl-
tion seems destined to be Overruled by the
radical party, which is composed Of the
wealthiest members Of the creed, and which,
united under the leadership of Lord Roth
schild brought up the entire matter for dis
cussion at the recent convention in London OF
delegates from every synagogue in the United
Kingdom.
The spirit Of progress among the Hebrews
denoted by their movement i'll favor OF the
reform of laws that have been i'll force since
the days of the prophets owes its existence
10 the increased enlightenment and civilization
Of the people among whom they dwell. Inc
most extraordinary apidity has been displayed
by both the Government and people OF Great
Britain during the last three or four decades
in obliterating the barriers that formerly cx-
i,tad between Christians and Jews. As late as
in 1876 there was Il Law in the English statute
book compelling the Hebrews to wear dis
tnctive dress They were prohibited from
holding land. and dcbarrcd from serving their
adopted country either in the army, the civil
administration or in the National Legislature.
Great Britain however, has realized that these
civil, political and social disabilities wero mere
remnants of medieval bigotry, and thorough
" out of harmony with the liberal and enlight-
ened ideas of Western civilization In rapid
succession they have all been repealed, and
every obstacle and hindrancc has been re-
moved. with the result that the sons of Israel
have achieved great and brilliant success in
many branches of life that had formerly been
closed TO them. Indeed, their extraordinary
versatility has fully confirmed the truth of
tho theory tnat their devotion 10 trade and
finance was principally due to their long ex-
cluson from camp, court, Legislature, and
even from the advantages Of public instruction
New-York tribune., 1890-08-09
PROGRESS IN THE SENA TIE.

Senator FRYE did well in postponing the
River and IIarbor bill until 1t could be con-
sdered without endangering the Tariff bill, a
measure of the highest consequence to the
country and the Republican party. Senators
Edmunds and IIawley in their remarks on the
matter, ably supported the just rule that meas
ures of National importance, upon which the
welfare of the country and the industries OF
millions depend, should have precedence over
bills "with money in them" 1t may be true,
as a Senator from Oregon remarked, that some
public works must wait for few weeks II the
River and IIaIbor bill be deferred. But the
waiting of few individuals, who have in view
pecuniary or political gains, Is supremely un-
important, compared with the weary waiting
of multitldes who seek employment in vain
because Congress has not Xet given adequate
defence to American industries
In the judgment of that great body OF voters
who have no private ends to serve, and who
demand only faithful care for the Nation 5
welfare, the Senate has no right whatever to
spend day or even an hour upon a River and
IIarbor bill, or any other measure OF similar
character, so long as the protection and pros
perity of home industries have not been Sc
cured. Senator Ilawley had right to speak
with freedom and feeling. In his own State
are men and women who have sought work in
vain ever since wrongful rulings by Demo-
cratic Administration broke down for some
industries the needed defence against foreign
competition Many mills have been idle for
two or three years. Home markets have be-
come crowded with foreign goods. Home con-
sumers have become accustomed to the cheaper
but less durable and honest products of for
egn mills. Prices abroad have meanwhile
fallen, and work in this country does not re-
yive until manufacturers and dealers have Sc
curity as to the measure of protection here
after What is true in Connecticut is also
true, to greater or less extent, in many other
States though not all Senators keep closely
in touch and sympathy with popular uecds.
The Senate does well 10 put aside bill
crowded full of pccuniary jobs until the basis
Of honest industry and legitimate trade can
be settled 1t is definite settlement that the
country needs more than anything else. I'm
certainty damages a hundred industries which
direct foreign competition does not yet much
affect. The people had right to ask for re-
vision of the tariff by Congress favorable TO
Protection, and having elected such Congress
had a right to count upon its speedy action,
They cannot be blamed. if their calculations

been made dependent upon the decision Of

TIE CENTRAL RAILROAD STRIKE.

The strike upon the Newly crls Central Kali
road comes as thunder from a clear sky. lt
is too early vet to weigh its causes in the Ju-
dicial balance or to estimate its probable effect
and outcome. AS an exhibition Of the power
of organization, however, this strike cannot
but impress every observer profoundly Ihere
have been hints of impending trouble on the
Central Railroad but general strike, mclud-
ing conductors engineers, brakemen and iirc-
men. was not expected, at least not by the
public.
That a paralysis Of travel and traffic on so
important railway system will produce, if
continued, vast and far-rcachlng results Is in
evitable. Tens of thousands OF people VIII he
seriously incommOdcd, and immense quantiucs
of freight, much OF it perishable, VIII De
blocked The merits of the controversy when
has led up t. this serious conflict can on!y be
determined after a careful investigation and
G,U hearing on both sides of the question. II,
as is said. the strike is merely an attempt to
demonstrate the power Of the knights OF La
bor little sympathy can be expected by the
strikers.
Strikes are always to be deplored; especially
so in the case of great railroad on Whlch
multtudeS of people are dependent for daily
transportation to and from important business
The stoppage of trains, even if it continues for
only a few hours must cause untold neon
ycnicnce. TIE TRlBCHE has persisientiy
urged arbitration of labor troubles as the rem
cdy for and preventive of strikes. Whether
efforts to arbitratc the differences that pro-
duced the Central strike have been made or
not we do not know; if So they have not been
brought to public notice in any impressive way
It is not too late, even yet, to resort to THIS
wise method of adjustment, though the proper
time for arbitration is before rather than after
striking At all events, it is earnestly to be
hoped that arrangements may speedily be made
whereby the employees will return to their
posts and the regular running of trains be
resumed.
1t is impossible in this emergency not to re-
gret the absence in Europe of President De-
pew. His counsels will be sorely missed by has
associates Mr.. Depew knows how to deal
with men-no man knows better than hc-and
ON this controversy, as on all other quesuohs'
he would be able TO shed the Illuminating rays
of his keen and accurate Judgment and his
strong common sense. His absence will almost
inevitably make the settlement OF the present
troubles less easy than it would otherwise be.
New-York tribune., 1890-08-09

II was their exclusion from all contact Win
the liberal education of the age that drove
them to the counter. to petty finance, ana 10
the narrow minded teachings Of their rabbin-
ical books
But since laws and customs have opened out
opportunities that had until then remained
barred to them, they have gained fame ana
distinction in almost every calling and pro-
fesson. The ablest judge on the English
Ronch in recent times was a Hebrew, as was
also the most eloquent leader of the Bar. Inc

and so, too, is one of the members of the House
of Lords; while on Primrose Day OF every

Jewish Prime Minister.
