STANDING for Our Rights.

Some weakened Jews believe that it is a mistake
for the Jew to strike back when his name is aspersed
and his honor called into question, but that he should
bear the contumely of the world with a patient shrug.
They claim that all our answering back will do us no
good, but will simply aggravate the attitude of the
unchristian Christian world towards US. Be hat as
it may, if the Jew has any honor in him, he withstand
up for his rights, even though it have the tendency to
array the world againsthim in greater numbers. We
cannot hope to gain the respect of men by bending
our backs and letting them walk over us. We must
have a certain amount of dignity and assert ourselves
whenever the occasion calls for it. Wedonot believe
in that hyper-sensitiveness which is characteristic Of a
great many among us, but all the more do we depre-
cate that %cringing, fawning, servile attitude which
many a Jew displays simply to win his way into the
good favor of some scapegrace of a politician or other
Christian no better than he. We are not simply to
be tolerated; we have certain rights that the world
is bound to respect, and if the world refuses to respect
these rights we must hold itup in its proper light and
see to it that it make amends for it's un-Christlike
spirit.

THE JEWISH SOUTH.

1t is not less to aggresSiveness that we need; 1T IS
more of it. We have endured the "abuse and con-
tumely' of the world all too long. The world is GER
tain to take advantage of the man who submissively
yields without retort or defense to the harsh treat
ment which it metes out to him. It is easy for the
church to preach the doctrine of non resistance to evil
and ask the Jew to be the man to carry it out in his
life, while it itself has been for the past eighteen hun
dred years the very incarnation of all that is hendish
and hellishin it's bearing towards the Jew. The teach
ing that 'the meek shall inherit the earth" sounds
very nice, but history does not bear out this statement.
The more uncomplainingly we submit to the abuse Of
the world, the more liable is the world to continue to
impose upon us. At every turn our Christian friends
have sought to keep us down. We have been made
to fight for every inch of ground. Their wrongs they
charge to us. History seems to repeat itself. To-day
again we are witnessing a rehearsal OF the scenes OF
the Middle Ages. Whatever is awry in the world is
charged up to the account of the Jew. Then they
were held responsible for the "black death" the poi
soning of the wells and a thousand and one INSIDE
meanors with which they had nothing to do. And
to-day we are made responsible for the social, the
economical, the industrial conditions and what not
that obtain in the busy marts ofthe world. AS though
these things were in the power of the Jews shaping!
Talk about a suffering Messiah, this title does not
belong to one man; it belongs to an entire people.
It is Israel who has been and is to-day the suffering
Messiah of mankind. He is made the scapegoat to
bear the sins of the nations. We are not so blind to
the reality of things es to fail to see that we are far
from perfect. We know that we have our faults and
foibles. But those who charge these faults to us had
better look to see whether their characters are flaw
less. Statistics will prove that when it comes to the
question Of right living the Jew stands head and
shoulders above his Christian %neighbor. The Jew,
therefore, need not submit to his insults and his re
bluffs. We may never get justice from the world, but
it would be the greatest injustice on our part were we
not to do all in our power to make the world see the
error of it's ways and atleast fight for a redress at its
hands. 1t is the inhumanity of man that has during
all these years put the Jew on the defensive. Itwould
be rank cowardice if in the face of the worlds oppo-
sition the Jew would not assert his rights and boldly
and aggressivelv demand, if nothing more, at least
simple justice.-Jewish Comment>

swell, nearly all Of the intelligent
americans whom / have met seem
10 think that such an alliance would
involve the United States in serious
foreign complications that she
should avoid. Much as they like
England they seem to view the pro-
position with disfavor. How the
matter is generally viewed here l
have yet to learn.
"Now, when | left England the
country was enthusiastic over the
subject For the first time in my
life have seen the Stars and Stripes
floating beside the British flag al
over England.
"Euglshmen, many of them, at
least, are strong for formal alliance
between the two countries. The
feeling in some quarters in England
on this subject is profound 1t is
based on conviction that unity of
race is good ground for unity OF in
terests. The ties between England
and America are many and close.
First the tie of blood, next of Ian
guage, then of literature, then of
faith. All these point, it is thought,
to unity of fate and destiny.
Son the other hand, a good many
Epglishmen see that the surest and
best Anglo American alliance is that
which is going on silently every day
in the constant intermarriage be-
tween The two countries aud by the
interchange Of mutual interests.
They also realize that formal bond
might bring into active play a good
deal of natural feeling which is now
held in check

PROTECTED IN WAR.
The Supreme Commander Issues a
Special Dispensation Regarding
Those Who Enlist in the
Military Service.

To the Officers and Members of the Sup
RENE Tent-of the Knights OF The Mac
cabees OF the World:
Greeting:--The people OF the United
States are today facing situation more
serious than any since the DAYS of the Civi
War. Nothing like 1t has been known to
them since the organization of our Order,
which was established to "protect the
widow and care por the orphan" as well
as to care for its members when they be-
totally and permanently disabled.
IT is apparent to all that 'the dogs OF
war have been unleaShed" and already the
thrilling sound of martial music and the
tread of brave men as they respond to the
patriotic impulses awakened in the cause
OF humanity are heard Throughout the land
1t is not only the duty, but IT will be a
pleasure for every citizen of the United
States capable OF bearing arms to respond
to his country's Call.
One OF the objects of our Order Is to pro-
mote good citizenship, and in its beautiful
ritualism the lesson of patriotism is fitting
ly emphasized. Every member not only
pledges himself to yield up his life should
his country or its institutions demand
such sacrafice, but that he will be as
true and loyal to his as was Judas Mace
abees to his Country.
Desiring to encourage all our members
TO be true to their obligations, and to be
true to each other and to those who are
dependandant upon them, and believing
that the good of the order requires it, do
by virtue of the authrity in me vested by
the laws of the Order, and iu the name OF
humanity, fraternity and true brotherly
love, grant this dispensation permit
ting any and all members OF the
Order to engage in the military or naval
service during the impending war with
Spain, guaranteeing to them and their be-
neficiaries the full and unqualified prOtec-
tion of the Order as though they had not
so engaged, anything in the Laws of the
Order to the contrary Notwithstanding.
