SYMPATHY FOR OPPRESSED JEWS.

Impressive indeed is the outpouing of material sympathy for
the oppressed and suffering Jews in Russia. Their fellows in race
IN America, In England and in France, though OF a different caste,
are giving of their means with a generosity that proves the sincerity
OF their interest as well as of their motives. In this republic. as well
as In England and France, persecution of Hebrews is only a dimly
recalled tradition. Today i'll these countries the Jew stands on the
same plane as other citizens in business, in society and in politics.
England witnessed agitations and plots hostile to the Hebrew
even as recently as 1858, but in spite of that the Hebrew has served
many times as lord mayor of London, he has frequently occupied a
empire.
So, too, in France, he has been and is making steady progress
to an equal station with men of the native race, because he possesses
the qualities and equipment that enable him TO overcome prejudice
and win respect and confidence for his worth. Tn Russia, however,
the Jew has been crushed and beaten back. Opportunities for
advancement have not only been denied him, but he has been sub
jected to the most cruel and inhuman persecution.
There is, however, a bond Of sympathy that makes the Jewish
people one. Revolving as have been the outrages visited upon
Hebrews in Russia, they have served to teach the world the salutary
lesson OF mutual interest, the sweetness OF wholesouled charity and
the faulty and folly Of the belief that man can live unto himself
alone.

or as much as the famous 16-inch gun

Thus equipped. Mr.. Stokes said the Ul-
TINA could destroy any battleshis I'm the

IS practically -four armored vessels in one,

Norways vote in favor of Prince Charles of Denmark as king is
20 emphatic that the prince is to be congratulated upon his popularity
In the country over which he will soon rule as constitutional monarch.
The throne comes to him as the willing gift of a people who are not
only conservative and capable of selfcontrol, but who ar. in the front
ct the present-day intellectual and artistic movement in Europe. Both
the Noqwegians and the prince have been particularly fortunate
affairs have III smoothly for the people and for the personal fortunes
OF the mar who Is 10 become their king.
Behind Prince Charles there are powerful influences. He is hap
PLY married to the daughter of a king; he has a healthy and robust
son VINO will be the grandson of two kings, the grand nephew of
another king and the near kinsman of an emperor. For the king
elect OF Norway and his promising heir the future appears bright and
happy; but what will be the destiny of Norway Is a separate and indie
pendent nation9 Evil times may come upon II, but fate appears to
have been particularly kind In providing 1t, at the outset, with strong
foreign alliances while at the Same time it can rely upon an energetic,
courageous and patriotic people.
HNorway is not afflicted by the bane of over-stimulated national
vanity 1t will escape at least one peril Much of what is now Sweden
was in earlier days Norwegian territory. An irredenta movement in
Norway would be the forerunner of a national disaster. Then, again.
If Germany's power In Europe should be increased by changes on the
continental checkerboard and the power of Great Britain lesscned.
Norway might be menaced, but the eventempered Norseman is Dor
rowing no trouble over the possibility Of such a consummation- At
any rate the nations will wish godspeed to the new King Carl and to
the dynasty he Is founding.

VENEZUELA
VIOLATES
AGREEMENT

Washington, Nov. lS.-Diplomatic repre-
sensations and possibly demands will soon
be made TO President Castro OF Venezue-
la by the state department on behalf OF
the United states and Venezuela COM
pany, owner OF the Critchield asphalt in
terests In Venezuela.
a year and n half ago the company was
simply forced out OF business by the ex-
cessive export taxes on the products OF
the asphalt field, levied by President Cas-
tro after an agreement made some years
ago that there should be no export duties
at all.
Secretary Root has recently given con-
siderable time TO n consideration OF the
case and has reached the conclusion that
the claims OF the American interests are
exceedingly well founded and that there
Is a strong case against President Castro.
As a result OF his Investigation he ask
ed that Representatives or the company
come 10 Washington Yesterday w. @.
Critchfeld, the original owner of the con-
cession; q. w. Rokeby. president OF the
United States and Venezuela company,
and X. Il. Clarke. a New York attorney,
retained by the company, called on Sec
rotary Root.
There were two conferences. one before
yesterdays Cabinet meeting and the 9TH
er this afternoon.
Instructions will probably be Sent soon
to w. w. Russell. the American minister
at Caracas, directing him 10 ascertain
President Castro's attitude in the matter.
When the concession was first granted
TO MI. Critchheld IL was with the clear
understanding hat Venezuelan govern
ment should not levy export duties on
the asphalt produced by the company.
N company was also given the right
TO build a railway To be used exclusively
for the transfer OF the asphalt from the
fields TO the sedshore. The company en-
tered into active operations and was do
ing "A good business when Castro began to
put on the export taxes. gradually in
creasing them until the company was
forced TO abandon operations. and finally
stopped doing business entirely.
The case was put before the state de-
partment and representations have al
ready been made TO President Castro.
The Critchfield case Is one OF four hip
claims, the state department has against
Castro. Thus far nothing has been done
10 relieve the company. but. as IL Is now
understood, Secretary Root proposes 10
venezuela TO make amends.

u am going to hold the Republican party in power in this state.
Any political party whose hold on power depends on Odel leans
on a pretty slight reed. The governor forgets that many thousands
OF voters refused to support a Republican candidate for governor
who was a reputable man because Odell was regarded as the can
didates mentor. This was a year ago, and since that time the Odel
rule has become more clearly understood. The Republican party
is, of course, strong enough in New York state not to need the up
holding of a governor who made a high office the means OF advancing
his own political and private fortunes. Governor Odell is probably
no worse than other men who participated in the saturnaha OF poit-
cal corruption at Albany, but he is the marked man.
At one time he aspired to the United States senate, but though
there have been and are in the senate men who are no special credit
to it, not even the audacity and disregard of public sentiment OF which
the former governor has shown himself capable can induce any one
to suggest him as a future wearer Of the toga. The people OF the
country have about finished with men of the Odel stripe.
