Iswiah Life.

y. Writing al the Language Of Jewish
life. in the Lamp, Israel Zangwill says
that the modern, progressive Jews of
New York and London lead a life
not necessarily inferior to a Jewish
life, but "a Jewish life it is not. 1t
is the general life of the nation whose
language they speak. Scr%upulously bur-
led in the same cemetery, they
have a common death. But a common
life-no, that they have not. Upon the
clear mirror of language they pro-
duce no breath. If Israel is to live
and speak again, it can only be on a
soil of his own"

TIME FOR ACTION.

Senator jackson is now quoted as
saying that he will probably vote for
the pigeon bill becaseu there is such
a great clamor in its favor in other
parts of the State outside of Middle
sex county, but. he says. if he does
vote for it he will be acting contrary
to the wishes of a big majority in
his own county.
Mr.. Jackson further says he under
stands that q petition, with several
hundred signers, is being circulated
asking him to vote against the bill.
This should be a warning to the
friends of the measure. II the all
people who are opposed to slaughter
ing pigeons from traps in the name of
."sport" should express themselves
Mr.. jackson would soon learn wheth-
er or not the majority Of Middlesex
people were against the bill. Those
opposed to the act are active. Let
those In favor of aholishing the cruel
"sport" also get busy. Churches
should take up tho matter Sunday and
show Mr.. Jackson how they stand.
In this case action sDeaks louder than
words. Take some action and let the
senator know about it. Societies
should do the sans. Write indivi dual
letters to him. Address til en- to New
Br unswick. No street number is
needed. Get busy as they are in other
parts of the State. 1t is humane and
christian like work to urge the pas g.
age Of the bill.

EQUAL TAXATION.

Regarding the much mooted sub
iect of equal taxation about which
Mayor Fagnn, of Jersey City, has had
SO much to say in connection with the
railroads, the Passaic Daily News had
an editorial q few days ago, headed
1.-THE Other Side," which contains
much sound sense and APPEALS ptrtic-
ularly to Perth Anlboy.
After citing an instance where, in
Jersey City, a citizen was paying hut
$45 tax ON a piece of property which
he valued at $12, 900 and for which,
after condemnation proceedings had
been resorted to, the Pennsylvania
railroad paid him SO, 900 and is now
paying 10 the State $lS5 tax on the
same property, the News continues:
- -,is discussion of equal taxa
tion we must get down deeper thar
the railways. We must come to realize
that the system of taxation is full of
evils, notably bad being the personal
property tax. There, is a lesson for us
in the fact that the railways, though
they are not taxed enough, are taxed
according to true value. There can
never bs ANYTHING like edual taxation
as long as the present system Eof eva
sion Is carried on -..~.-
We agroe with our Passaic oontem-
porary.. that the railroads are not my
ng enough and what they are paying
goes into the wrong treasury, but
since the assessors III this city, last
year, followed out the letter of the
law and assessed at "true value" it
is time the assessors in the other parts
of the county did the same. 1t is
freely admitted in other parts Of Mid
dlesex county that property has been
assessed at anywhere from three
fourths to one-half of the trus value
and on that basis the rest tf the
county is paying in to the county
treasury, while in this citv the pay
ment is being made on the basis OF
true value. 1t is therefore evident
that while, according to law, Peril
Amboy is paving no more than Ill
just share, at the same time, in pro
portion TO the basis of payment from
the rest of the county, it is paying
for more than it's share. This ii
where ''equal taxation" concerns
Perth Amboy. If one place is to b'
assessed at true value, let every Other
place do.likewise then there will b'
something like equal taxation" WI
trust that the commission authorized
by the legislature will not overlook
this condition of affairs in Middlese,
county when it begins its investiga
tions.

PASSES JEROME BILL
Assembly Has Put Through
Antigambling Measure.
VANDERBILT E1 Al. MUST TESTIFY
Wade of Chnutauqua Claimed Per-
sOnnI PriviIegc-His Amendment
Was Defeated-Bili Vow
Goes t. Odell.

ALBANY, n. Y, April 7.-District
| Attorney Jerome's gambling bin, also
| known as the Garfield bill, has passed
the assembly by a vote of 03 to Al.
The passage of the bill was forecast
ed by the defeat of an amendment by
Mr.. Ware which would kill it by a
vote of 50 to 81.
The bill grants immunity to witness
es who testify in gambling cases and
will enable the district attorney to cal
Reginald Vanderbilt and others to tes'
tify against Richard Garfield and 9th.
erS.
District Attorney Jerome arrived al
the capitol early in order to witness
the final struggle on the bill. He ex-
pressed satisfaction at the outcome.
AS soon as the Jerome bill was taken
up Mr.. Wade of Chautauqua rose to a
question of personal privilege. He
read from a newspaper the statement
that if he opposed the bill his opposi-
ton would be looked upon as express
ing hostility on the part of Speaker
Nixon. He declared that he represent
ed only himself and that the speaker
had never asked him to support or OPP
pose any bill.
He also denied the statement that
there was some connection between
the voting machine interests and the
gamblers. He said there was no foun.
dation for it, but he admitted that he
was interested as a stakeholder in o
voting machine company. He thought
he ought to be free from such base
insinuations."
Mr.. Wade said he cared nothing
about Garfield, but he did care of Civ
ing the %pardoning power to a district
attorney. So far as concerned the diff
Guilty of obtaining convictions, the
same could be said of murder, larceny
and many other crimes.
Under a close of the house the bill
went upon final passage. Mr.. Wade of
fered an amendment providing that
the powers granted by the bill should
be invoked only at the order of the su
preme court in each case.
Mr.. Wainwright declared that this
would kill it, and Mr.. Palmer also op
posed it. The latter ridiculed the claim
that the bill was unconstitutional, call
ing attention to the fact that the same
provision existed in the constitution il
the prohibition against passes for pub
lie officers, in the antitrust law and il
an election bill passed on Monday last
The bill has already passed the sen
ate and now goes to the governor TO,
final determination. 1t is believed that
he will sign the measure.

The New Brunswick Times is in
linrd luck. 1t has been scoring Sena-
tor Jackson in bitter terms and it has
grounds for SO doing. Wnen the
freoholders are condemned, however,
tho Times tries to defend and excuse
them. 1t is a party organ and, of
course, it all depends which party il
being attacked. If the Times spoke
for the people it would be as bitter
against the tr5eholders as it is against
Jackson but the Board of Freehold ers
is Democratic and Jackson is O Repub'
lican. AS seen in the Times editorial
room, the Democrats can do nothing
wrong. If Senator Jackson was only
a Democrat, the Times would doubt
less say he was the best senator in the
State and would be defending his &C.
tions just as it is now trying to de-
fend the freeholders. We extend GU,
sympathy to the Times.
