ANTEsEMlTIsSI

The adherents Of the Mosaic faith
have just celebrated the commence
ment Of the year 1901 Of their calendar,
counting from the period Of time which
Jewish tradition has fixed as Gre
alton Of the world.
An eastern exchange In briefly re-
viewing the past year notices that It
has been one OF persecution and oppres-
sion Of the race IN many parts OF the
world In Bohemia, for instance. a
Hebrew was accused OF ritual MUIR
der" He was actually condemned TO
death. and escaped his fate only
through the interference OF the higher
authorities which were more free from
superstition than the subordinate
judges
It is almost Incredible that IN on
lightened Europe the fiction is still
current that the Jews need the blood
Of Christian children for certain rit-
ualstlc performances But the story
Is still being circulated and believed.
and the Bohemian Jews referred TO was
condemned 10 death for the alleged
murder OF Christian child whose
blood he was said to have used as a
sacrifice
Ant-semitlsm. further. caused riots
In Russia. Prussia, Moravla, Roumania
and Algiers In this country, on the
contrary, the Jews have succeeded In
obtaining recognition In important Of
fees. They have built a number OF
svnagogues and given large sums to
charitable purposes America has prov
en- the "land Of Joseph TO the Hebrew
race. Even in the capital 30 Great
Britain the Zlonists were mobbed. Here
they could gather in safety A congress
Of Zionlsts would be most welcome In
any American city. It's deliberations
would be respectfully listened to, both
by believers and skeptlcs.

CLEAR our TINE THIEVES.

From the frequency with which hold.
ups and housebreaklngs occur in this
ely at the present time. It must be in
t.rcd that a gang Of toughs Is operat-
ms here. The business has been carried
700 for some time and the victims both in
the city and It's suburbs are numerous.
The fact suggests a word Of caution TO
Fair and Conference visitors at this
time. II the thieves have come to the
cry for the purpose Of preying upon the
public during this gathering. they are
likely to obtain a large harvest. un-
less special care Is taken. In an proba-
bility. too. residences Of people that are
in the habit Of going OF during the
greater part Of the day win be watched
by the gang ana searched for yaluables.
Too great care cannot be taken
Money and valuable property should
not be left where thieves can easily find
H.
But TO exercise proper care In this re-
spect is not sufficient Some special ef-
fort should be made to clear the city OF
the whole gang OF thieves and robbers.
And II the police department is not.
numerically or otherwise, sufficient TO
do this, some special steps should be
taken TO secure the end I'm view. Once
before few years ago, the citizens had
TO organize themselves 10 properly
guard the residences, especially at
night, and so efficient were the meas
ures then adopted. that IN a few weeks
the city assumed Its customary tranquil
security.
Thieves are a most contemplate class
Of criminals. They deserve TO be dealt
with promptly and severely. At times
when distress and depression cover the
land, there may possibly be some ex-
cuse. II some yield 10 the temptation to
transgress property rights. But when
there is an abundance Of work in all Sec
lions Of the country there can be no
amelloraung circumstances for those
who shun honest labor and choose the
occupation OF housebreakera. They de-
serve no mercy beyond that which civ
ili2ed laws accord even criminals.
The city should be cleared Of the
tough element. in one way or another.
II the police cannot do It, the citizens
can There is no reason why Salt Lake
city should not maintain her reputation
" being a place OF safety against the
INVASION OF criminals.

win give some encouragement 20 the
turbulent classes and their supporters
and apologists in Idaho. But Il should
be understood that the decision Of the
United States CIRCUIT court OF appeals
was based on a legal technicality
The charge against them was con-
splracy to commit wIlful offense
against the United States. They OBJ
structed and hindered the passage OF
a railway train which. ii
carried United States mail. But 1t
does not appear that they knew 1t was
a mail train. Therefore, while they
committed an oflense against the State
OF Idaho. 1t is not made clear that they
conspired TO violate a law Of the United
States. They get the benefit OF the
doubt and are discharged from custo-

This release, however. We presume
does not bar prosecution under the
laws Of the State In which the offense
was committed Perhaps this will not

ground mentioned. But this ought not

The balls are easily broken spheres, containing ammonia and aclds, which, on escaping, create a very dense fog. wrapping everything near it in haze until blown away by the wiLd!
