the Jews do not regard anti-Semitism
with contentment or patience, they
have grown accustomed to 1t and meet
it as an inevitable evil, against which
their race in all ages has had to contend.
Moreover even among Jews themselves
there is species of anti-Semitism.
"The Western dew" Mr.. LEVI tells
us, treats his coreligionist from Eastern
Europe as an inferior, considers him
ignorant, superstitious, bigoted, hyPo-
critical, cunning, ungrateful, quarrel
some, unclean, and in many other ways
abominable.7 On the other hand, in
the eyes of the Eastern Jew, tho Western
Jew is cad; his education superficial
and flashy, his philanthropy ostentatious
and insincere, his manners a cheap imita-
ton OF the Gentle, upon whom he fawns,
his religion a compromise in which APP
pearances count for everything, his as
sumption of superiority another proof
that every ass thinks himself fit to stand
among the Kings horses = "
Accordingly, many of the Jews OF
American birth, training and ideals
" look with cold indifference or hot hos
tility on the arrival of their suffering CO.
religionists" They say that these East
ern Jews are endangering the proud
station the American Jews had won in
this country before the dispersion be-
gan; y" that they have driven the Amerl-
can Jews out of certain lines Of business
and threaten to monopolize others; that
they longest our seaboard cities, and,
finally, that in many ways they bring
odium to the Jewish name" This hostile
prejudice Mr.. LEVI inveighs against as
both unjust and futile. No power on
EARTH he says, can stop the dispersion
now proceeding, and if it were neces-
sary to choose between the welfare of the
one million Jews in this country and the
millions who must ultimately come here,
justice would turn to the greater num-
ber.'
Mr.. LEVI, however, contends that so
far from the dispersion of the Eastern
Jews spelling danger or misfortune to
the Western Jews, in a few years we
shall see on this continent reborn, re-
hablitated, virile, powerful Jewry.' Al
ready he thinks he discerns signs that
the gospel of hate and discord is giving
way to the gospel of harmony and love. y
The necessity this Jewish leader feels
of addressing to American Jews so ear
nest an appeal against prejudices shared
by them with Christians is a very sig
nificant consequence of the Modern
Dispersion.

Greater New YORK Democracy Continues
It's Efforts for Recognition.

ALBANY, June s-John c, Sheehan's
Greater New York Democracy is con-
tinuing it's efforts to secure party column
on the official ballot at the next State cleo
ton This organization contends that il
polled more than 10000 votes AT the last
election, which would entitle it TO a party
column The local boards OF oanvassers
throughout tho State added the vote Of the
Greater New York Democracy candidates,
who were the same os those of the Demo-
cratic party, to the Democratic vote, Mr..
Sheehan and his friends have had enough
county clerks throughout the State re-
count the ballots, so they say, to show
that their candidates received more than
10000 votes. The Secretary of State, how
ever, has refused to accept such certificates
from county clerks.
John P. Kelly, who represents tho Greater
New York Democracy, had long talk
to-day with Secretary Of State John F.
O'Bren regarding the situation, end was
informed by the Secretary Of State that he
had no authority in the promises. " was
suggested to Mr. Kelly that apparently
the only relief was to secure court orders
compelling local boards Of canvassers to
reconvene and recanvass the Greater New
York Democracy vote separately from
every other vote cast for the same can
didates in which event the State Board ~
Canvasscrs would have to be reconvened
and recanvass the vote.

The AbOiitionists and the League With

To THE EDITOR OF THE SUN-!Sir: notice
that DIR. William Hayes Ward in your paper
OF June denies that certa In facts referred
to by me are genuine history" The SEN
tence Of mine which he challen ges was as
follows:
The abolition party denounced the Constitution
as league with hell and. advanced the doctrines
OF what they called the higher law.
had not supposed that any one would
understand my allusion to the abolition party
as referring to an organized association of
persons ensa ged in political activities under
the name Of the Abolition party" The
word party" was used in its generic sense
as including the various factions and groups
who agreed upon the general policy Of OPP
position to slavery and OF advocacy of its
abolition.
DR.. Wards criticism amounts to this, that
one "gr CUP" who. he says, were without
influence, did denounce the Constitution as
IAN agreement with hell. and another group,
who were organized into a political party, did
advance the doctrine of "the higher law"
so called. Now, even II the perspective
OF history warranted us In inQuirng at this
late day into the minute shades Of difference
between the various groups or factions Of the
abolition party, the inquiry would be irrele-

purpose to bring out the fnct OF the existence
IN that DAY OF great leellng Cou pleQ With dis
satisfaction. on the part OF the anti-slav very
party over the provisions of the Constitution.
! therefore stated that the abolition party
denounced that instrument in severe lam
guage and proposed to substitute their own
accepted canons Of good morality in place
OF it.
DR.. Wards letter sustains me in this He
says that the organized element OF the party
did propose to disregard the Constitution
and substitute for it their own particular
code Of morality. but that the special and
violent epithets alluded to by me were not
employed by the organized. but by the I'M
organized group. The latter group, he says.
were without influence" Discussion of that
question is wholly irrelevant, but since he
makes the assertion. | venture to express
the opinion that contemporary history as
cribes far more potent influence to Garrison
and Phillips and to their group than to the
Liberty party. Whatever else may be true
or untrue as to their teachings, hardly be-
lieve DR.. Ward will find many persons to
agree with him in his estimate Of their in

State College OF Forestry Defended Against
Charges Of Tree Cutting.

ToTHH EDITOR OF THE SuN-Sir: In view
of the veto by Governor Odell OF the annual
appropriation for the New York State College
Of Forestry, which passed both branches OF
the Legislature without dissenting voice,
the responsibility for maintaining the college
rests for a short time at least upon the uni
yersty trustees. Owing to the usefulness
and influence that the college has attained
since its establishment five years ago. the
action of the trustees at their meeting on
Thursday should not be in doubt.
The college has given number Of trained
men from time to time to the United States
Government not only to the Bureau OF For
estry in the Department of Agriculture. which
has sent them to all parts Of the United
States, but also to the Department OF the
Interior. which has used them upon the West
ern forest reserves. and to the Philippine
Commission,

The object Of the Governors veto is. prob
ably to stop the cutting which the college l.

about ten days ago. and almost each day

added to the millions OF property destroyed
Trouble for the United States began on
May 20, with the foods in the Middle West.
On that day the Kaw River in Kansas,

banks, and three days OF fire and food
followed. At North Topeka. $50 persons
were drowned and 45,0O0,OO0 Of property
was destroyed. Meantime, the Missouri

than in any year since the great food OF

thousands of dollars worth Of property.
That was on June I, and on the same day
the cable brought the story Of the burning
of dormitory at Eton, one OF the great
public schools in England in which two
Of the students lost their lives. Four
days later eight persons were killed in a
cowboy feud at st. Francis Kan. Right
on the heels Of that came the news Of the
overlooking of the Pacolet River In South
Carolina In the food OF which nearly 100
persons were drowned, three cotton mills
were wrecked and *2,0OO.000 worth OF
property was destroyed.
While the West has suffered from too
much water, the East has suffered from too
little. Owing to the long drought, the
entire East has experienced a loss to crops
that has yet to be estimated. At the same
time, acres on acres Of valuable timber land,
to say nothing Of summer homes, have
been destroyed by the fires In Maine, in the

Since the scramble for Africa began and
more particularly since the Stokes-Lothaire
affair the Congo Free State has been the
subject Of attacks in British newspapers.
books Of travel and even fiction. The force
Of the accusations ia diminished somewhat
by the fact that the accusers are usually
former officials who left the service Of the
State with personal grievances and whose
assertions have been taken up by enthusiast
tic societies for the prevention OF various
abuses.
Lately something like combined assault
has been made In the Congo State. The
Secretary OF the Aborigines' Protection So
