HAS A RESERVE OF 81 ,ooo, 900.
Order of the Free Sons of Israel In
FIOurishing Condition.

CHICAGO, June 13.-The national
was called to order today by Grand
Master Julius Hamburger of New York
city, in the banquet hall Of the Audi
forum. He thanked the members Of
the Chicago lodges for their hospltable
treatment Of the visitors.
Dr. A. j. Messing offered prayer, and
the delegates then elected temporary
officers, Judge Philip Stein being chosen
chairman. Judge Stein advised an in
telligent discussion of affairs Of impor-
lance which would come before the
convention, tending to promote it's well
fare and prosperity.
Grand Master Hamburger then pro-
ceeded with his report, the reading OF
which occupied nearly two hours At
ter an introduction commencing the pa
triotism Of the American Jew, he de-
tailed the various advantages Of the
order, saying that in spite of the stag
nation Of industries the order had
hourished and had now a reserve fund
Of nearly $1,000,000. He said if the Or
der had accomplished nothing else than
the thorough Americanization of its
members, this achievement alone
would stamp it as the educator Of the
people, and the benefits derived would
thus be incalculable to the nation.
The convention then took a recess
until afternoon. when, after the ap-
pointment Of the various committees,
an adjournment was announced until
tomorrow at $50 a. m.

| that the conferees will not restore 1t.
Tariffs being laid for the benefit of
such as are able to make tours across
seas, it follows, senatorially, that their
privileges should not be interfered W 18th
by the nosing of any officious customs
officers among their baggage when
they return.
But to return to Bulgaria The
finance minister of that country IS
most practical fellow. He, too, belle es
in fostering home industries, the max
ing of garments among them. Like
Dingley and the rest Of his school, he
would have everybody In Bulgaria wear
apparel made in that country. Eut
even there no compulsory power les is
in the government to make all it's sub
jects wear the product OF Bulgarian
tailors SO, casting about for what he
could do, the minister hit on the ofti-
Gals OF the state as a body whom the
state could control. So he forthwith
introduced into the chamber a motion,
which, as the London Chamber Of Com
merce Journal informs US, reads: All
state officials, all officials of commit
tees and district and all servants who
receive payment from the state, are
bound to wear whilst in service clothing
and boots or shoes of home manufac-
ture." A further provision instructs the
minister of education to study the
question of putting the pupils Of high
and class schools into uniform, and, If
this is decided upon, their uniforms are
also to be of home manufacture.
Now here is a suggestion that Mr..
Tawney should be diligent in using.
There is more in it than in chicory or
eggs. AS one of the probable conferees
! when the senate shall have properly
| mutilated the Dingley bill, Tawney
might attach an amendment embrac-
ing the Bulgarian idea. Think of the
stimulus to the home industry Of max
ing clothing when all officials, from the
president down to house messengers
| and charwOmen, from the department
heads and clerks to the handler of
| mails in the remotest postoffice in the
land, every one in our broad domain
| who gets compensation in any way
from the federal treasury, shall wear
no clothing except such as shall bear
the authorization that it is made in
the United States. And then how ca
pable it is in expansion. Why should
not Minnesota adopt the same kindly
fostering and apply the rule to her Of
! ficials and those of all the municipal
| tiles and minor divisions of the state,
! the county officers, the schoolma' ans
and masters, the road bosses and
| pound masters and all the heterogene-
Gus crowd who derive sustenance from
! the public fisc? The opportunity should
not be lost and if Mr.. Tawney cannot
handle it perhaps Senator Nelson might
father it.

labor ON the immigration question in
It's several phases. The greeting saws:
The subject has been divided in such
manner that each member NAV have
fa1r opportunity to vote either in
FAVOR or or opposed to the entire SUBJ
ject Of immigration restriction, or upon
the measure and scope Of such restric-
ton.
Or course these VINO are opposed to
the restriction of immigration need
give little attention to the manner by
which restrictions may be secured.
while those who are favorable to re-
strictiOn can fully discuss and decide
as to the forms and measures Of re-
strlction. The following are the cues
tiOns submitted
Flrst-Does your organization favor amend
ing the laws Of the United States to restrict
immigration more than it is restricted?
oeconu-Does your organization favor a. pro-
vision in the law guarding against criminal
ana pauper elements entering into the United
States?
Third-Should the foreign consular service
and our immigration department be entrusted
with greater powers TO enforce immigration
laws?
Fourth-should the violation of the alien
contract labor law by employers be punish
able by Imprisonment?
F1fth-Should the steamship companies be
held responsible fer a term of years for the
character of their passengers?
Sixth-Should a stricter civil and educational
test be enforced to qualification for natural
iZat:on?
seventh-shouid every immigrant be COM
PEELED to declare his intention to become
citizen Of the United States?

sanitation favor and suggest, If any, to fur
Their the restriction Of immigration?

vention may fully express the real

/ GLASGOW, June 13.-The most care
full inquiries among the leading cotton
dealers do not justify confirmation or
a contradiction of the report that an
American syndicate has completed ar
rangements whereby it will shortly be-
gin the operation of large thread mills
at Paisley to compete with the thread
manufacturing. establishment Of J. &,
p. Coates & Co. It Is generally admit
ted that the high prices now prevail
ing would offer tempting inducement
to such an enterprise, but the opinion
of those best qualified to judge is that
the project would be venturesome ow-
ing to the wide connection now enjoy
ed by the thread manufacturers of
Paisley. If an opposition to the thread
monopoly were threatened. it Is thought
that the Americans would be more
likely to begin operations at home
For it is known that arrangements are
almost completed for a thread agency
here absorbing the WiHimantic Conn.,
mills. AS the Mile End Spool COM
pany's works were acquired some time
ago. it follows that there is now only
one important mill on the other side.
