those who go there, staying only from
one boat to another and seeing and
hearing only the rabble OF the streets,
consider the people they see as the rep
resentative people Of the island How
quickly they would change their minds
il they came In contact with the other
element. Ships are now carrying q
great many Porto Ricans to the United
states who formerly travelled IN Spain
ana other European countries They
are anxious to travel In this country
and learn the ways and customs Of the
American people 1t is remarkable
how many Of those who can afford to
do IS are sending their children to
American schools and colleges to be ed

500 men are employed as secretaries
and assistants, the average daily at

the Jews in Russia are discontented OF

mon rights of citizenship and Of man

They cannot speak and act for their
freedom. They are oppressed ana

Rabbi X. Kohler, newly created pres

eve had best leave comments on it
to tile Imagination. Parts Of the dukes
remarks are true, especially regarding
the resentment felt toward the Jews
by the Greek church in Poland, but to
say that the Jews Of Russia are not
discontented and unhappy is false.
TT Is true that the Jewish agitation
ia chiefly instigated by Influential Jews
outside Of Russia, and this Is the rea-
son. a Russian jew would be killed II
he dared make m cutlery in his own

"The Grand Duke yladimir's at

the race prejudices in this country is a

The right Of human sympathy and
feeling win be manifested as long as
the human mind and heart possess
these attributes. President Roosevelt

can chord when he sent a diagnosis Of
