CAN'T ALWAYS COLLECT BY LAW.

A subscription to a fund to
build a church cannot always be
collected by law. At Carlisle,
John Fl. Gardner subscribed
$1,000 to the erection of new
Lutheran church. He afterward
refused to pay and suit was
brought. 1t appears that Mr..
Gardner made his subscription
with the understanding that the
new church would cost $4,000,
without consent of the congrega.
tion or subscribers, and Mr.
Gardner is, therefore, not liable,
says Judge Blddle.

prosecuted for centuries should in turn
interfere with the views of others of
their kin.
We wonder what the same judge
would have said if good Christians re-
sented the ridicrle Of their most cher
ished convictions, if, for example, Jesus
were hung in effigy No doubt the Lon
don judge would have tempered his
words considerably.
The Jew would not be human if the
fragrant desecration of his most sacred
day did not pierce the very core of his
heart; especially when fellow-.Jew CD
holds up to public scorn the highest and
holiest in Judaism, the loyal Jew who
has a drop Of red blood in his veins
will condemn him vigorously and unmis-
takably. 1t would have been far bet
ter, however, if the outraged Jews had
avoided street brawl

The President on the Passport
Question

In his letter of acceptance President
Roosevelt states the attitude Of his adj
mnistratiOn in reference to the Russian
passport question with considerable
warmth of feeling. Not having seen the
criticisms Of the action of the admins
tration to which he alludes. we can not
pass upon their merits. We are salts
fed, however, that the present admins
tration in this difficult matter has done
all that it could possibly do under the
circumstances, and we should regret to
see eitsf failure to accomplish more made the
occasion for partisan attacks. The adj
mirable history of the controversy con-
corning the subject contained in the
Jewish Year Book, just issued shows
that this question has, during the past
quarter OF a century received the careful
and patient attention of the secretaries
of state who during that time have rep
resented both of the great political par
ties. 1t would be unreasonable to expect
Secretary Hay to accomplish in a hurry
that which neither Evarts, Blaine, Bay
ard nor Olney could do in all the long
years Of their administration. The pres
ent secretary and his predecessors have
conveyed the views of our government
on the subject earnestly and forcefully;
the ministers and ambassadors, some of
them perhaps reluctantly, have pre-
sented these remonstrances time and
again. The result has invariably been
disappointing, and will probably con-
tinue to be so until the consensus OF opin-
ion Of the people of the United States
demands the denunciation Of the treaty
with Russia, unless she yields to this
country in this matter. The admins
tration can not be expected to take such
action unless there is practical unanimity
amongst the people to sustain it. Neither
Of the great political parties has as yet
adopted such a position, and the great
mass of the people do not as yet under
stand what the trouble is about. The
campaign Of education and agitation
must go on. But in this campaign we
should see to it that the spirit OF party
and of faction is eliminated. The ap
peal should be to the sense Of justice Of
the American people. So far the admin
istration has kept fully abreast of the
public opinion on the subject. That
must in fairness be conceded by all rea-
sonable men.-Jewish Exponent.

Rabbi DR.. Lippman Mayer,
Lippman rabbi emeritus of Congre-
Mayer cation Rodeph Shalom Of
Pittsburg, who recently entered the
realm of life eternal, was perhaps
the best beloved rabbi among his
colleagues Modest and unassum-
ing, he grudged no one success,
and always spoke the sympathetic word
Free from the overweaning conceit that
belittles the efforts of others, he did not
arrogantly presume to be the greatest
scholar, sneeringly waving aside his
brother rabbi as an Am -Haarez. He
knew his position as a savant was secure.
Nor did Doctor Mayer pose as the self
righteous, noli me tangere, too lofty to
fellowship with the humble and small
salaried men of his profession. Sincere
and open hearted he won warm welcome
in the hearts Of all. He was fine type
of harmony between the old and new
schools, and in the early struggles for
modern Judaism did yeoman s service.
His presence will be missed among
the younger rabbis, to whom he was an
inspiration and an illustration of all that
was kindly and generous, as his depart
lre will be mourned by thousands OF ad-
mring Jews everywhere His memory

1t is true the oriental symbols Of the
day lack the power to sway us who live
under western skies and who are no
longer farmers, as were our Palestinlan
ancestors. We do not dwell in booths
seven days. the Lulab and the Ethrog
scarcely stir in us the sentiments once
aglow in the breasts of our fathers.
Still, though we do not observe the let
ter of the law. we miss much if we neg
lect to insist on it's spirit. The rabbis
of old said that Sukkoth would outllve
all the holidays and beheld the time
when the festival would be universally
observed. They felt that ''whoever
failed to participate in the joy OF the
Harvest Festival failed to taste the JOY
of life.''
If gratitude is dead within us, life
has lost it's value. There is none so poor
but he has been the recipient of number
less favors and acts Of kindness. God
has meted out His blessings to us with
lavish hand Those who appreciate
the meaning Of gratitude will be readiest
to share their gifts with others.
We have all garnered a harvest;
some have sown in the intellectual field,
others have cultivated the religious emo
tions of kindness and love; others,
again, have laid up large store OF
wealth. Each has something to give,
and in giving he enriches himself as well
as others. Many active and ennobling
agencies will appeal for your support
during the winter months You will be
called upon to lend a hand. Sukkoth is
the great leveller of artificial barriers,
and you are not exempt from carrying
out the spirit Of the joyful festival The
Jew never tolerated aristocratic airs in
his own midst, least Of all an aristocracy
based on wealth. The iron crucible OF
suffering welded him into fraternal SYM
pathy. If we carry out the spirit OF the
Sukkoth festival during the coming
months we shall be pardoned for varying
from the letter Of the law Good Yom
tob!

The truth cannot be burned, be-

SAYS ALIENS RULE CITIES.
Duty of Americans to Resume
Reins Declares Wendell.
REPUBLIC SPECIAL.

REPUBLIC SPECIAL
Boston. Oct. 15-Professor Barrett Wen
dell, addressing the Society of Colonial
Wars, at the eighty-ffth regular meeting
of the society, made a remarkable state
ment to the effect that our cities are
ruled by aliens.
He declared that citizenship should be
denied to the mob. of whom Lincoln was
one, and asserted that the excellent thing
about Lincoln was that he outgrew his
class. Democracy. he declared, did not
mean that the majority should rule. His
remarks follow:
TT is with the sense of the deepest hu-
initiation hat L recognize that our great
cities are governed by an alien people.
They are certainly not of US. 1t should
be a duty Of the society to work that the
American may again resume his old posi-
ton at the front 1 recognize that at pres
ent We are temporarily overridden. but
eventually I feel confident that we shall
again resume the reins OF government.
What does democracy mean?
Does democracy mean what we so often
hear. hat the majority shall rule? I think
you will agree with me hat it is not 80.
The mob, made up Of all lower classes, Is
surely In the majority at present Among
these are the Italians and those from the
Eastern countries. 1 believe that one way
to solve this problem is to refuse the priv
ileges of citizenship to these immigrants.
Abraham Lincoln was certainly Of the
mob, but what was excellent about him
Is that he outgrew this class"
