JEWS IN PALESTINE.

Are Gradually Crowdin Out the Natives
VIII Own the Country Sometime.
DIR. Nathan Samoilovitch Morgulies.
a professor of the Hebrew language
who la just returned to Moscow from
Jerusalem, says that h Hebrew col
oniZntion of the Holy Land is rapidly
on the increase, especially in the towns
Of Sefeda, liberia and Jaffa and the
region round about. where already
there are 100000 Jewish ~colonists.
I'm fifty years. said DIR. Morgulies,
Palestine will be settled throughout
by Hebrews. They are already push
ing out the native tribes, the Arabs and
Syrians. who are leaving hastily and
for good. Most of the Hebrew colon
lists belong to ancient Spanish and
Portuguese strains. known as Sefardin-
ians; to the Russian. German and Hun
garian branches, called As~hkeenasiuns,
and to the Afghan, Algerian, Tunisian,
Bokharan, Persian and Moroccan
branches, grouped under the Nachafar-
ians. All these emigrants have been
assisted more or less by the muniticent
Hirsch fund of 100000 900 francs C$4,-
500. OOO) and the Rothschild colonial
ton fund of 4 O.00O,O00 francs (SS,0OO,-
OUO).
''rhese colonists. although cosmopol-
itan as to country and origin, are
strongly united by their faith and are
/ anxious to secure the restoration of
Judea. They are happier and for the
most part wealthier than the average
European Hebrew, especially those
who still linger. oppressed, in Russia
and other Slavonic countries. I'M
sure that Palestine by the year 1850
will have become an Independent state,
but of course not the kingdom of which
some utopian Zionists dream. l OBJ

els and from my interviews with he
lending c~olonists that they desire to
see in the new Palestine n great He
brew commonwealth. under the pro-
lection of the most tolerant of the first.
class powers of Europe. The espe-
cially except Russia and Turkey.
such a king of Zion as some of the
Zionists talk about never would be
able to unite and gover the thou
sands of Jews in Palestine, with their
score of different tongues. 1t will take
n century. and 1t may take longer, to
establish an ideal Ommon Hebrew lam
guage. That will come when millions
of the worlds Jews shall have invaded
and settled the cradle of their race.
THE task of the present generation
is to create Il powerful community,
which shall develop agriculture. man
ufactures and trade. While h a Is
being accomplished, and after it is
brought about, Palestine's colonists
will be happier without a king. All
the Hebrews of the world ave suffer

France has IA soldiers to every
1000 of its population; Germany o

more than six each; Turkey and Italy
each more than seven; Great Britain
more than 5h, while the United States
has less than one soldier per 1000 of

no chance of the military strength OF
the United States ever being increased
to the proportion that exists in Euro
pean countries.
LAS a city grows in size and extends
its area, the first thing for which the
citizens living there ask is more police
city, and the bigger 1t grows. the better
it should be protected. But the United
States has been growing n growing
year after year. and its population has
doubled since the civil war while u
standing army has been kept nomi-
nally at $4,000 men year after year.
Even our present increase above 25,-
600 men is but temporary. as the law
authorizing 1t expires on July 1. 1901.

LAS a matter of fact, this country
has not been aifordlng sufficient Pro-

their Increase. If our German friends

moved from militaryism and imperi-

of but 1.30 per cent! Foreign ships
carry a billion dollars worth of our
products to Europe. and our own
ships carry less than thirty million
dollars worth.
No greater danger confronts the
United States today than hat caused
by u dependence upon foreign ships
for the carriage of nearly all of our
exports. OF our exports to all the
world, less than Z per cent carried in
American ships. Apart from the COM
mercials calamities possible, and. as
some bs7ople believe. probable. through
the withdrawal Of the larger part of
the vast foreign shipping upo which
we are now dependent for the auxil-
larry naval and military uses of the
great powers, our great weakness upon
the sea emphasizes our only real ma
tional danger.
Congress cannot remedy this condi-
ton too soon. Proper provision must
be speedily made for the attraction of
American capital into shipbuilding
and shipowning, so that at the earli-
est moment possible we shall become
possessed of the ships we may require
for all of the necessities of our foreign
commerce. Our export trade is close
ly approaching a billion and a half
dollars in value. At its present rate
of growth less than a score of years
will find it valued at three billions and
requiring double the shipping of to-
day for its carriage. Foreigners will,
then, have us all the more at their
mercy If we do nothing to establish
our own ships upon the seas.
Foreseeing Just such a possibility as
this, Thomas Jefferson as long ago as
1893. in a great state paper predicted
that a nation which allows foreigners
to do the great bulk of its foreign
carrying will be disarmed of its de-
tense, it's productions will be at the
mercy of the nation which has pos
sessed itself exclusively Of the means
of carrying them, and its politics may
be influenced by those who command
its commerce" These words were pro-
phetic of a condition that actually ex-
lists in respect of the United States TO-
day.

Democratic Imperialism Scare of No Eff

"our friends, the Democrats, are try
ing" said General Charles Dick, Secre-
tary of the Republican National com
mittee, ito make everybody believe
that the German vote this year will
go to the Democratic party. but there
is not the slightest likelihood OF this
being the case.
I'm 1896 the Germans voted for
President Mckinley. They are strong
believers in the advantages of a gold
standard of currency. This the Repub-
1ican party has given them. They know
that should the Democrat candidate
for president be elected, which, of
course, would mean Democratic O n
troll of congress-, then the gold stand
ard law would be repealed and free
coinage of silver will be foisted upon
the country. The Germans do not
want this. They are probably the most
level-headed European people who
come to live here. They know that
they fare better here. can make and
save more money than they did in
the Fatherland, and they are not a
people who are lead AVA by flights
of the Imagination.
"An effort is being made to bring the
Germans. into the Democratic line by
soaring them with the bugaboo OF
imperialism, which 1t is claimed would
compel a large increase in II mill
tary forces. Many of them have come
here to escape the strict military laws
that are in force in Germany. and
naturally they would not favor any
thing tending in the same direction
in this country. l I'M glad this sub
ject has developed thus early in the
campaign, because the Germans Will
have time to read and study what the
actual conditions are as to our military
forces. comparing them with their
Fatherland.
Germany has over 5 2.000,00 peo-
pie. Its standing army is 100000 men
an average of liz soldiers to every

10000, 900, and a standing army oil
Go, 900 men. which is equivalent to 1.Se
