DANGERS THAT
MENACE SOCIETY
Plain Duty Of Man Is to
Correct Evils That
Exist.
Interesting Lecture by Rabbi
Voorsanger at Temple
Emanuel.

Rabbi Jacob Voorsanger delivered an in
structive lecture at the Temple Emanuel
on Suffer street last night his subject
being the dangers that menace society,
and the duty of men to correct existing
evils. In his preface he alluded to the
war of the Vendee in France in 1892,
which necessarily brought into play the
national characteristics of the revolution
lists. 1t was then that Danton cried out
in the National Assembly when he sought
to restore peace, LET my name be blight
ed, so that my country may be free!''
Rabbi Voorsanger said in part:
1t this remark which made Danton ia
nous. There are characters who sought fame
through the commission of infamous acts, and
who gained infamy instead. Was the
sassin of our martyred President actuated by
a similar motive? He sought fame and won in
fanny. Now that his monstrous crime has been
expated, 1t might be we'll for us to pause and
consider in how far existing conditions are re-
sponsible for this crime which plunged nation
into grief. 1t is the duty of the pulpit the
platform, the press and Congress itself to de-
termine whether we are not individually and
collectively responsible for this crime against
the constitution of the United States.
|. 1t is a matter of serious doubt if our edu-
cational systems are complete Good and evil
are two mighty factors which are constantly
operating in society. This is the best Govern
ment IN the world because it is the most demo-
S S' ana YET, while we believe this and con-
denim In unsparing terms assaults upon this
lgreat man. we should deIve beneath the sur
discomfort i
any exist and which know exists. We
should md out If the people are unhappy, and
why 1t is to this apathy to existing conditions
we TOO often display that these periodical out
bursts of individual hatred for the representa-
DIE.
The speaker expressed the conviction
that men should learn to know each other
better. He discussed the question of adj
vancement of the world on religious,
| moral, intellectual and industrial lines Ali
great movements not based on sound mo-
rallty must necessarily fail. The well be-
ing OF society and of the world was best
subserved by strict adherence to moral
and religious laws in all the movements
| projected by man.
