thom h inconsideabls. Leaving 10 the
Catholic Church the duty OF taking care
Of the spiritual concerns Of Catholics b
not desertion'; it Is wise recognition
Of a necessity.
II must also be borne in mind when
considering the relative growth Of Chris
tian Churches in New York that there are
now here more than 600, 900 Jews, Of whom
perhaps two-thirds are in the district to
the south of Houston street and TO the
east Of the Bowery to which DR., LAIDLAw
refers, more particularly. These Fast
Side Jews are almost exclusively Of the
strictly Orthodox school and attempts
to convert them TO Christianity are prac-
tically vain. II they leave Judaism it is
to 60 into agnosticism, to abandon re-
ligion altogether. They may and do
feel specifically, the influence OF sur
rounding Christian customs, but they
are not attracted to the Christian faith.
The fact must be faced that New York
is already the seat OF the greatest Jewish
community in the world, and that this
community is increasing rapidly through
the numerous immigration Of the strict
est school Of Judaism. In New York
there are now one-half az many Jews as
Roman Catholics and one-third as many
as Protestants, even counting the e36,0oo
lapsed Professionals II Jewish immi-
grafton continues to come in at the rate
which has prevailed since 1900, the num-
Der of Jews in New York will be some
thing like million by 1910, or toward one
quarter of the whole population. Theirs,
moreover, is an exceedingly enduring
and prolific race, and in estimating the
religious condition OF New York it must
hereafter have a foremost place in the
count Not the percentage Of growth Of
Professionalism and Of Catholicism is the
most significant matter for consideration
or comparison, but the impressive, the
marvellous growth of Judaism.

Mr.. d. NJ. PARRY. president Of the
Manufacturers Association, delivered
himself recently Of broadside of COM
mon sense on the subject OF organized
labor. 1t has been widely published
and has attracted a great deal Of the
attention it deserved. Senator HANNA
has seen it, and in addressing a labor
banquet on Tuesday evening he read
from it this passage: .
1T drives unwitungly men into Its ranks by It's
policy Of intimidation. Thousands OF It's members
are such to-day. not because they sympsthize with
It's purposes but because they fear the consequences
OF not yielding to Its tyranny
Upon this Senator HANNA made the
following comment:
well u that Is So do not know II. 10 this land
OF liberty every man Is equal under the law and be-
fore the law The law protects the individual nights
Of every man. and as long be is q law abiding
man he has no dictator but his conscience"
Now this illustrates better than any,
thing else that We have seen the singular
disadvantage under which all Mr.. ROosE-
vELT's rivals must labor when dealing
with this subject. Senator HANNA prob
ably did the very best he could with the
subject; but how different from the meth
DDS Of his younger competitor

TO organized labor. he never lies to it,

ability, however, Of having the TRACKS
near enough to the city to insure prompt
and adequate transportation to and
from them II not overlooked. These
essentials, 1t Is believed, will be admira-
bly, realized in the Westchester Racing
Associations proposed new course on
Long Island, which will be in cost,
extent, convenience. and general ex-
cellence OF appointment the finest course
in this country, II not in the world"
Only a few years ago the huge grand
stand OF the beautiful course at Mon
mouth was dismantled, and last winter
the pretty little track at Linden was dis
posed of at auction. One by one the
tracks Of New Jersey. each prominent in
its day, have boon transformed into
farms or building lots and have shown
by their disappearance the absolute
necessity Of an active and vigilant CEN
trail authority, like our own Jockey Club,
with discrimination and power to regl-
late and protect the sport,
Racing is popular. not only in New
York State, but all over the United States.
and the rumors OF new tracks in prospect
come thick and fast. But to build race
courses is one thing, while to make them
profitable, and at the same time credita-
BILE to the turf, ia quite another.
