The Proposed Jewish Regiment.

TO our mind. the project OF adding a
troops springs from mistaken Judgment.
National regiments should not he necessary
here, and least Of all r~cligio-national regi-
ments. As evidence that error is behind
the movement. W. will cite an utterance
of ono Of its leaders, Mr.. FIREsToSE, to
the effect that tho establishment Of such
an organization would tend TO refute the
assertion hat Jews had no patriotic inter-
est in the country.
II is not wise TO stop in a crowded street
TO pick up a crooked pin solely for the pur-
pose Of prickin. ones finger. Tho asscr-
ton to which Mr.. FIREsToNE referred Il
not worth picking up. The lsraelitcs. like
other peoples, have their virtues and their
faults. But no notion T. more shallow or
more Ill founded than that tho jew in what
ever land his lot has thrown him i not a
patriot. There are many Jews in the Ma
tlOnal Guard now. There were more Jews
in the Seventh Regiment at the beginning
OF the Civil War than the number Of Jews in
this city at the time would have called for.
Comment was made recently IN the English
papers upon the number Of them serving
In the South African war. Patriotism has
never been wanting In the jew, and IL lie un-
necessary now to revive In tho National
Guard a discarded system 70 prove what
no sensible person questions.
