guish Of ravage and exile, would have
passed the ordeal of poverty and friend

have emerged so admirably as have the
Russian Jews of the United States?
But | have not come to laud your
achievements nor to sing your praises.
That which America has offered to you
and that which up to this point you have
done for yourselves concern the past.
Your faces are turned to the future, and
it is to suggest certain Of the opportun-

night I shall speak with the candor of
sincere and devoted friendship. You
arc to be regaled hereafter with the
choicest Of post -prandial delicacies. Let
me now place before you the homelier
bread-and- butter diet of frankness and
unreserve.
The life of every man in this world of
to-day has triple aspect-civic, social
and intellectual. Deliberately or other
wise he must assume definite attitude
first, to his country second, to his fel
lows, and third to himself If he be tor
pid or dormant-an unconscious member
of the communicable place is made for
him as food and shelter are provided for
dumb beasts. But if he be thinking be-
ing, knowing his past, graphing with
his present, striving for his future, his
attitude will be conscious and his con-
duct planned. What is true Of all men
is e-eminently true of you. Of the
Russian Jew as upon no other member
of the community is it imperative not
only that he entertain cine Weltan-
schauung, but that he prosecute einen

born of thought and study and course
of action bred Of firm resolve.
First as to his civic duty-his attitude
towards his city, his state and his coun-
try Mr. Emerson tells us that the high
est end of government is the culture OF
men. We should do no violence to his
wise philosophy in reversing the cpl
gram and declaring that the highest
form of culture is intelligent participa-
ton in government. If 1 should ask
what of all things you deem the greatest
boon that America has conferred upon
you, you would, without a moment s hes
itation, declare it to be citizenship"
History is cunning master, and now
and then sets the stage in spectacular
fashion. Contrast the scenes transpir-
ing these last days in your old and in
your new homes. In Russia a handful
Of brave men have gathered to formulate
a hesitant tentative appeal, framed in
trepidation and urged at peril, and for
what? Not for revolutionary demands,
but for those rights which you have al
ready come to regard as basic and ele-
mental-Eberty of speech, freedom of
the press, trial by judicial process, popu-
lar representation in government. In the
United States we witness triumphant de-
mocracy-a people fresh not only from
the choice Of it's leaders, but from the
determination Of it's policies. And this
you have not merely beheld, but in it
you have participated.
The proudest boast Of antiquity was
civis romanus sunni am Roman cit
izen" But how much more than this
is your possession! You have not merely
the protection Of a great country-the
greatest, we believe it to be, whatever re-
straint we put upon our words-but in
your hands is it's very existence. You
have been deliberately vested with the
highest privilege that civilization and
progress have conferred upon society
the privilege Of representative institu-
tions and share in conscious self-gov-
ernment. Dare you, then, regard these

In the opening sentence of one of his
last essays, James Russell Lowell tells
us that just as at noon every day the
captain of ship tries to learn his
whereabouts so on board this ship OF
ours-the earth-we strive to ascertain
from time to time, with such rude instru-
ments as we possess, what progress we
have made and in what direction. Surely
he must be blind and stolid witness
who could contemplate the scene here

single generation change so marvellous
has been wrought that one views it with
the uncertainty of romance. What was
an inchoate mass has been splendidly as
simulated into the body polite. Poverty
has been replaced by self-support. de-
pendence has given way to manhood, a
sort of mental automatism has been sue
ceeded by a conscious intellectual life.

There is no episode in our national life
more remarkable than the progress and

at once of the genius Of American insti-

the Jew. What other land would have

How the "Great Moral Institution is Kept Out

Sometime ago the Observer told how
the dispensary was closed at Chaplin be-
cause nobody would rent building for
selling the booze in. Recently the friends
of the "great moral institution" discover
ed that there was a vacant lot in town
that belonged to man in New York
named Scott. They bought it, hauled the
lumber and were about to build, when
Chas. P. Robinson went to Lexington
courthouse and examined the title to the
lot, and found that the original deed from
the late Martin Chapin-after whom the
town was named-made it condition
that no liquor should ever be sold on the
premises. And the dispensary crowd
have been blocked again.-Newberry OBJ
