The Jew gives his children a com
merclal education, and not an edu-
cation OF fiction and aircastles. With
an astute commercial education and
monetary qualifications the Jewish
lad is indispensable in American
civilization. Whether battling
against the prejudices Of the French
or the evils imposed by other enc
mics, the Jew is always trying to
prove that the conflict is to thefttest.
The Jew is indispensable in Ameri-
can growth. His business qualifca-
lions, tact and money are all needed
and we are not willing to be without
them. Ii the racial development of
the Negro had a commercial and
monetary basis, the status of the race
would have a different coloring. He
looks entirely to politics for the
stamina of his racial growth, and, as
result, his growth has been i'm
paired by the changes which politics
are sure to undergo. We have turn
ed our attention to the project which
has for its object the returning of
the Jews to Palestine. This, to us,
is laughable, We might as well talk
about returning the Puritans to
England. We know not where this
scheme was born, nor why, but we
are sure that it is out of place.
America is good enough for the Jew
and the Jew has demonstrated his
fitness for citizenship We shall
write more fully on this subject at
another time.-Ex.
