Jews that are buying the shares. not
the rich ones. The rich are not all
with us. Our movement makes them
remember the past OF their race, and
they do not wish to remember it. They
have for years been trying to open
the door of society with the gold key,
and they want society to forget their
history. They argue against us, and
say that patriotism to their native
land would interfere with their new
nationalism.
A GENERAL EXODUS.
1--WE must find some way OF check
ing this rush to Palestine when 1t
comes. When the Jews realize that
their mother country-with Jews
forming its government and peopled
by their race, Europe will be almost
depopulated of them. And when we
have gone Europe will look around
her in bewilderment. The war be-
tween capital and labor is coming
it has now begun, and the Jew In
Europe is its natural scapegoat.s
When that scapegoat is gone the two
powers will have to face each other.
"And nothing but Palestine will salts
fly us. At Basic, when Mr.. Trietsch, the
American asked for my support of his
scheme to form Jewish colony in Cy-
prus, [ said: That plan has now ad-
vantages over a hasty colonization OF
Palestine. and | will aid you in it, but
not under the flag OF Zionism. Zionism
means Palestine or it means nothing.
And when he proposed his plans be-
fore the congress the people were en-
RACED. No sooner was his purpose put
into words than every delegate was on
his feet, crying as one man, Down with

What steps are being taken to
spread the Hebrew language"
Elementary text books and reviews
are being published, schools and librar-
les are being founded all over the
world, and plans are being pushed for
ward for the establishment of Jewish
newspapers in every country. An i'm
mense Hebrew enclycopidea is being
prepared, treating of the Jewish race
from the beginning to the present day.
In learning the language the people
will be aided by their Hebrew prayers.
The task is great, but it is not impos-
sible.
"All these matters were discussed at
our last congress-" he added. There
were forty women present, too, and
they were allowed to vote and parti-
cipate freely in the proceedings. Mrs.
Gottheil of New York presided over the

been nrominent in the Zionist move
ment were present, and the altered tone
or rne proceedings was significant. For
Taer Zionist congresses have been nope
FIJI chiefly: this congress was bust
nesslike and dealt with dollars and
cents. It's discussions were not alone
as to what is to be done, but OF what
has been done-the establishment OF
she Jewish Colonial Trust Company, the
negotiations with the Sultan of Turkey
ior the ceding of Palestine to the Jews
for a cash guarantee, granting char
ter to it and autonomy to its inhabit-
ants, the sounding of European Pow
ers regarding their attitude to the Zion
ist movement and THE important steps
which have been taken toward the de-
velopment of the Hebrew tongue
throughout the world.
DIR. CASTER AT WORK.
This congress was memorable for
the enthusiasm displayed and by rea-
son of the pledges which the delegates
were able to make of the interest taken
by their constituents. Prominent in it
were the two great JEWISH leaders,
Chief Rabbi Caster of London, and Dr.
Herzi, the president of the congress,
now of Vienna. With them were asso-
ciated Max Nordau, Professor Gottheil
OF New York, DR.. Mandelstam, the Rus
sian scientist; DR.. Alexander Mar
morek of the Pasteur Institute, Profess
sor Belkofsky of st. Petersburg, and
Leopold Kahn of Vienna.
OF these the one who probably knows
more about the Zionist movement and
its history than any one else is Chief
Rabbi Caster, of London. and 1 called
ON him. He received me in a room
which has books instead of wall paper.
The sides CT this apartment are hidden
behind shelves upon shelves of new and
old books, each Of them neatly docket
cd with a library number. BY the win
dow which looks out on MAZDA Vale
Road stands a business-like roll-top
desk, and beside it stands a type
writer, at which the Rabbi sits with his
bright red fez on his head and clicks
off his speeches and his books, of which
he says he has written "a whole row.

HARD WORK IN EUROPE.

"While this was being done-whiie
we were working in Roumania, DR..
Herzi. who was then in Paris. the cor
respondent of the Neue Freie Presse of
Vienna, came into prominence and
gave the Jews in western Europe
leader around whom to rally. He
wrote a pamphlet called The Jewish
States which was unnoticed at first,
but which finally was read by every
one.. After this, when he came
to England we began the work
here, and similar work was done
everywhere throughout the world
for the cause of zionism, I'M
til finally organization became possible.
America was interested. for Gottheil

The doctor went on to explain the
organization which he has achieved in
England. 1t has for its foundation
absolute democracy, and he said that
democracy was also the watchwoFd OF
Zionism and the sign in which it would
conquer. Two years ago. he con-

Work of the Gunboats.

NEW York, March ia dispatch
to the Herald from Manila says: On
Monday your correspondent went
aboard the United States gunboat La
guna de Bay and accompanied her on
chase of the rebels. She first steamed
past the town of Pasig and turned her
Gatling guns on the insurgents entrench-
ed along the shore. The insurgents
were so frightened that the women,
children, horses, soldiers and carebos
fled in hundreds across the open fields
toward Laguna de Bay. The gunboat
ceased firing, but followed close behind
the panic-stricken crowd, driving them
inland.
On Tuesday the gunboat Ceste Joined
the Laguna de Bay, both under COM
mand OF Captain Grant. They made
for the lake channel, which had been
blocked by the insurgents, but they
finally cleared the way.
On the lake we chased two sailing
vessels which were full of insurgent
troops. Both vessels refused to sur
render and ran ashore, the troops es-
Gaping in spite of our fire.
During Wednesday, while approach
ing Santa Cruz, the richest city on the
lake, we raised white flag when 500
yards from the shore. A large force of
insurgents Is entrenched in front of the
town, but they refused to confer with
US. Then we shelled their positions ef-
fectlvely and withdrew to the end of the
lake to await the landing of our forces.

How to Prevent Pneumonia.

You are perhaps aware that pneu-
monia always results from a cold or from
an attack of La Grippe. During the
epidemic of La Gippe a few years ago
when so many cases resulted in pneu-
monia, it was observed that the attack
was never followed by that disease when
Chamberlajn's Cough Remedy was used.
It counteracts any tendency of cold or
La Grippe to result in that dangerous
disease. 1t is the best remedy in the
world for bad colds and La Grippe.
