The age-long dream of regaining
 cherished by all Jews THE of a sentimental turn, FUTURE OF seems at last to be pos PALESTINE. sible of realization,
 thanks to the practical leadership of pr. Theodore Herzl. In the December number of Lesiie's Monthly MT. Israel Zangwiil. the em- inent Jewish novelist. has compre hensive article on the Redemption of Palestine and after reviewing the unsuccessful efforts at colonization un- der the direction of Baron Edmond de RothschiId and others, he speaks in enthusiastic terms concerning the movement headed by pr. Herzi, and it's bearing on the future of the Holy Land.
 Dr. Herzls movement is one for the integration of the scattered forces of Israel. and the expression of this unity by national. politically guaranteed home in Palestine. that may serve as shelter for the homeless, and a bea- con for those prosperously sheltered elsewhere. MT. Zangwill shows that like so raany other agents in this fate full, epical drama, Dr. Herzl started with no partiality for Palestine. But he, too. has been set on the road to Zion. even as he has been transformed willy nilly from a writer into a man of action of the first order. In a brief five years he has piloted his scheme through storms of abuse and hostility from every class of Jews, till the va porings of q visionary have become q political possibility. discussed at four great international congresses, ap- proved by the German emperor, not disapproved by the czar, favorably considered by the sultan of Turkey. the ruler of Palestine, worked for by socie- ties throughout Europe and America, and South Africa, capitalized by hun dred and thirty thousand shareholders, and constituting the greatest Jewish movement since Christianity was founded. rH -;z >'--
 The. task to which Israel is thus called. says Mr. zangwill. is of an originality congruous with it's unique history Netherlands have always created colonies Here colonies are to create motherland. or rather recreate her. The task is difiicult-more diff | fcult, perhaps. than any in human his tory, bcset with more theological and political plantraps.-unique in it's prob 1 lem of migration. But the very greatness of the task. as Mir. Zangwill says. should stimulate the most maligned of races to break

the desolate monotony of this brutal modern world by the splencor of an antique idealism. The Jewish colonies have not so much failed as sown their wild oats. They have ga-nered a plentiful crop of experience and the Zionists have Baron Edmond to thank for paying the prentices' premium. The colonists never learned to swim because they had the cork-iacket of his capital to recline on. Short of some great national aim and with far stronger legal guarantees. it were madness to colonize Palestine. It was a mark of Herzl's political genius to say at once: Till we get our char ter, not a single Jew shall enter Pal estine."
 A brief review of the present posi- ton of Palestine will show that there is nothing chimerical in the scheme of making her habitable by the Jews. On every side there are s,gns that she is shaking off the slumber of ages. The exports for 1900 were of the value of f264 .s5O; the imports cost 1882, ,So5. Je~ rusalem is again Jewish city But what a city, Lepers. begsars. oph- thalrnia. stink, starvation make her a worthy capital of Judea; the metrop- oils of misery. Rent by <he fierce schism of Sephardi and Ashl1enazi, she likewise typifies the disuniop of Israel
 Zionism will change all that. We have seen the failure of every other prescription, we have followed the largely unconscious evolution by which-even against his will-Israefs feet have been turned Zionwards at the very moment in history in which it is possible for him to re-occupy the coun- try for the worlds benefit and his own. Our examina ton has been purposeiy confined to those practical aspects witout which the noblest dreams are form of opium-eating. But the dullest imagination must feel what world Of romance and spiritual hope, what ferment of religious revival and lit erary and artistic activity must attend and follow the homecoming of the Wandering Jew.

Disappointment over the omission from the presidents message of refer
 ence to the applications THE for statehood is natural. STATEHOOD but the presidents req QUESTIONS. sons, so far as they ap-
 ply to Oklahoma and the Indian Territory may be regarded as sufficient" says the Kansas City Star "when territories desire to en- joy the rights and privileges of states, they should approach congress with clearly defined purpose and as nearly as possible unanimous consent. There has been such vital division on the subject of single or separate statehood for these two territories. that the es- sentfal element of popular consent is wanting.
 That both territories are entitled to better and more liberal government is manifest. Oklahoma, at least. is ob- viously entitled to statehood. If. as is intimated in the congressional reports. a complete territorial government, like that now in operation in New Mexico, Arizona and Oklahoma, is to be given the Indian Territory, then the claims of Oklahoma would become indepen- dent of the contiguous lands. and it should be possible to present them in strong and convincing terms.
 "Doubtless, when such presentation can be made the president will be ready and eager to send a special mes sage to congress on the subject It is not improbable, indeed, that at some time during the present session he will address congress on the general sub ject of statehood applications. Surely it is time that the petitions of Arizona and New Mexico should be acted upon. These territories have long sought statehood, and while their tangible claims are less commanding than those of Oklahoma, they at least have the prestige of age and long continued en- deavor
 No one can believe that in emitting mention of the statehood question President Roosevelt has been actuated by political considerations. There has been nothing in his administration thus far to denote that he would deny justice to any state or territory for fear of any purely political disadvan- tages that might result from grant ing it.

A few weeks ago. by way of supple

A few weeks ago, by way of supple menting the American newspaper ac-
 counts of terrible bat COMIC tie in Sonora between OPERA Mexican regulars and WARFARE. Yaqui insurgents. The
 Republican quoted de- tails of the combat as furnished by a Guaynas daily, from which it ap- peared that eight Yaqui bucks and two squaws. after exchanging epithets with the regulars. withdrew from the fight. thereby relieving Guaymas from danger of being put to fire and sword But opera bouffe warfare is not confined to Sonora. It prevails in Central and South America, wherever there are "hostilities. To be sure, as the figures presented in these col umns a few days ago demonstrated. many thousands of lives have been tions during the past few years, but notwithstanding the tragic side of the picture--and there is always plenty of tragedy and cruelty when men of the Spanish race are involved in war there is also always humorous side to these affairs, the contemplati ton of which makes it difficult for an Amer ican to regard them seriously. For instance there has been an abundance of fighting and much bloodshed on the Isthmus of Panama recently, but as part and parcel of the hostilities there have been all the ridiculous settings necessary to carry one back to the bombastic, chivalrous ceremonies and absurd days of Don Quixote.
 The steamship Finance. direct from Panama. arrived in New York fe.y days age. and the New York Suns in- terviews with some of the passengers brought out some delightful stories. it appears that the liberal army of Co., lombia (which since then has surren- dered) consisted of 14S men and boys when the Finance left, and most of these were officers. In the attack on Colon this army lost two generals. Patino and Cortissoz. several lieuten- ant generals (the United States army has but one), a major general or so, a few brigadier generals. divers coloncls, lieutenant colonels, majors and cap tains, and-it is believed-one private.
 The insurgents had boarded a Pan anna railroad train in the interior to set to Colon. Most of them didn't have cer fare. Tine conductor said the army would have to get off and walk unless they paid and several privafcs put UP the fare for themselves. Generals Pat
 
 generals and major generals were in

dignant. The conductor insisted that the revolution could not revolve by train without paying. Then the two generals gave their promissory notes. after much cussing in Spanish. for the fares. and the revolution proceeded. Captain Sukeforth of the Finance says that when the train got to Colon the liberals attacked the police station. After losing ten men the police fled or surrendered. There was much wild shooting and many bullets. mostly Mausers. whizzed around the Finance, lying at the railroad pier.
 Generals Patino and Cortissoz or ganized themselves into a naval force and went out in an unarmored rowboat to demand the surrender of the gov ernment warship General Pinzon. The rowboat was manned by colonel whose naval education had been linn ited to the navigation Of a. South American pony. The boat was cap sized and the generals, being unable to swim, were drowned.
 The Pinzon's skipper refused to wait for the luckless generals and steamed out of the harbor. He came back later with about goo government soldiers aboard and threatened to Lombard the town. He, was persuaded to postpone action by the American. English and French warships in the harbor. Later the government troops routed the rev olutionists. killing more generals, col onels, etc. and the isthmus resumed it's normal lazy aspect.
 Captain Perry of the battleship Iowa. with 250 marines and bluejackets, came across the isthmus from Panama to Colon on the armored train, in which were several of the Finances passen- gers. The train flew a big American flag from the locomotive and another from the rear car. The government forces and the revolutionists were in, sharp fight at Matachin, bout mid way of the isthmus. when the train hove in sight. Captain Perry got out on the front of the train and warned the combatants not to fire on the Stars and Stripes. The revolution was su5- pended until the train passed. and both sides saluted the emblem of Uncle Sam.
 One of the Finances passengers who was on the train. said:
 Most of the soldiers. who are not well developed physically and are a slouchy lot, were kneeling in the long grass and shooting at other soldiers on hill tops I couldn't tell which were revolutioEists and which were gov ernment troops. Captain Perry told both sides that he would whip all hands, without distinction. if they fired on the train."
 After the two revolutionary generals were drowned. and all the lieutenant generals. major generals and brisa- dier generals had been killed or wounded. or were missing. Colone: Barrera assumed command of the in surgent forces. Captain Sukeforth said:
 United States marines had been landed at the Panama Railroad com pany's piers to see that they suffered no damage, and when Colonel Bar rera came along he very ostentatious- ly saluted the flag of the United Statees. He even called for cheers for it and in other ways did all in his power to show that he had nothing but respect for the Americans

News comes from the Utah end Of Senator Clark's Los Angeles railroad that it is being rapidly built and will be completed within comparatively short time. Just what that means as to the date of completion is indefinite But there is no question. apparently. that the line will shortly become reality. A hint of the early approach of the event is conveyed by the an nouncement that the Gould Hartman people have already informed Senator Clark that when he is ready to do business he cannot have freight priv ileges over the other lines running through Utah. They say he must build another road to the Mississippi if he hopes to make his venture worth anything except to a flaw towns in desert places between Salt Lake and southern California. Perhaps the senator will take his enemies at their word. He is one of the very few men in this country who could build his own Pacific road if he wished.
