RoUMANIANS ARE COMING
Ten Immigrants TO Be Distributed In
the Three Cities.

the Three Cities.
As a result of the recent meeting of
tri-city Hebrews, at Temple Eman-
uel, Davenport. with Rabbi a.
Norden. of Chicago, present, it has
been decided to invite 10 of the Rou-
manian i'm migrants. four for Daven-
port, three for Rock Island and three
for Moline. ALI are 20 be skilled

carpenters. They are 10 come from
the 35. 900 who recently landed at New
York and are being distri buted to nu-
merous communities throughout the
country. Rabbi Norden stated be-
fore he left that all of those newcom-
ers. being largely young men with
trades. might easily find employment
IN New York City. but it was the de-
sire of their friends in this coun try
to place few of them here and few
there, in order that they may lose
their clannishness and become thor
ough going American citizens as
quickly as possible. The method
adopted, it was thought, would cause
the strangers to learn new ways and
new ideas. political and social. more
quickly than any other. For their
strenuous efforts along this line those
in charge of the work and the local
Hebrews, who are heartily cooperat-
ing with them, are deserving of great
credit for doing something which will
benefit their fellows from Roumania
and the country at large. The tri-
city consignment of Roumanian He
brews will arrive in a few weeks.

COMPLETELY ANeLlclzED.

The most rampant organs Of imper-
ialism printed in this country are very
naturally English sympathizers in the
TransvaaI controversy; and the curious
part Of It is that these same newspapers
used to hold up everything English as
a soareorow for American voters. It
has been only a few years since they
denounced English free trade. English
imperialism, English land grabbing and
everything English as pestfential and
immoral from the American point of
view.
E3gland's warmest sympathizers in
This country and he most enthusiastic
apologists are these same editors and
orators.
For instance, here is the New York
Mail and Express bewailing the fact
that the great majority of the people
in this country look upon the resistance
Of the Beers with favor and says: "The
United States especially should consent
to recognize in itself a debtor to British
sacrifice"
What sacrifice did England make for
this country? When was it? In 1775?
In 1872? IN 1861?
The other day American ships bound
for a neutral port in Africa were seized
by British warships as contraband Of
war Instead of being indignant as
these ex-deriders Of the British flag
would have been five years ago, they
are justifying the seizure. The same
newspapers from whose, editorial col
umns the foregoing excerpts are taken,
sa,as:
To assume that Great Britain has acted
without legal warrant would be absurd.
To assume that she has acted without the
most careful deliberation would be still
more absurd.
And our Gotham contemporary has
tens to assure its readers that nothing
which England might do would be re-
sented by the administration. perhaps
on account of that debt Of gratitude
for British sacrifice" It says:
The notion that this affair may disturb
the kindly relations between Great Brit
ain and the United States is mere non
sense. The incident is not important
enough to cause any serious friction be
tween the two nations, and II is nc. ally
certain that the trouble viii be speedily

This took the wind out Of the sails Of

Of Republicanism for the coming cam

No one who is opposed to the single
gold standard has any business in the
Republican organization. says the

For the benefit Of Senator PETER

to return to the Republican household, ="
says the Mail and Express, '.it may as
wei be stated plainly that the coun-

expansion.
In this connection it is interesting to
recall the address Of the silver Repub-
lean organization of this state a year
and a half agO-an address which met
with the hearty endorsement OF our
morning contemporary at the time:
We point to the fact that the rational
Republican party of the United States has
abandoned the cause of bimetaiIism. and
that local adherence TO the national Re

there is no place in his soul for mOder-
