the best scholars in our schools and COL

are now among the foremost and the

An Ill Advised emit.

Weprintto-day a very earnest appeal to
the Jews by Dr. IsIDoR SINGER, warning
them of the danger ofarousng pernicious
anti-Semitio sentiment which is involved
in the formal attempt to force the sum-
mary removal Of an officer Of the State
for alleged discrimination against that
race in summer club Of which he ia
the president No accusation is made
that in his public capacity DR.. DEWEY
has exercised any such discrimination
or in any way rendered himself liable
to special Jewish criticism
DR.. DEWEY. MS the Director Of the State
Library az Albany, is subordinate of
the Regents ofthe University Of the State
Of New York. and il is understood that
petition Of eleven Jews for his removal
from that Office is to come up for their
consideration al a meeting o be held nj
Albany tomorrow. The gravity Of the
issue il not exaggerated by Dr. SINGER
when he describes such an attempt 10
force a purely race question into politics
as a menace to -the peaceful evolution
of American Judaism
The city of New York now contains
about seven hundred thousand Jews,
and they constitute toward one-quarter
Of the population of Manhattan Island.
Their number will be largely increased
by Jewish immigration FOR 1905 which
promises % be the greatest ever received
in any single year; and il The migration
of Jews to this country continues at the
rate of the last ten years. their number
will be doubled ten years hence The

which has been made in the last twenty
years has gone on without provoking

opcra and Mllliopaires.

Mr.. CoNRIED will find IL difficult to
persuade the public that the Metropolitan
Opera House could continue TO exist in
its present nourishing estate without the
financial aid of the wealthy men forming
the Metropolitan Opera and Real Estate
Company. which owns the theatre. They
give the mpresario the use of the house
and keep it in condition. They receive
in return the use of their boxes and the
right to exercise a certain interference
in the control of the opera.
1t is no reflection on the musical taste
of the city TO say that the withdrawal Of
the stockholders and their financial sup
port would mean an end to the kind of
opera of which New York may so justly
be proud.
In giving him the theatre the stock
holders are as generous as any manager
could reasonably expect. This is the
foundation Of the great est subsidy that
has come to the rescue of any mpresario
of the Metropolitan. The payments OF
the public for admission go entirely 10
the company conducting the opera, of
which Mr.. CoNRIED is president and
managing director. The amount OF
these has become so great during recent
years that the management is insured
against loss before the curtain rises on
the first performance This public, on
which any operate manager may
count. was built up through the per-
formances offered by Mr.. CoNRIED's
predecessor, MAURICE GRAU. He made
it plain that opera here was always 70
be 30 good that the public might safely
pay for its tickets in advance.
Mr. CoNRIED, with the theatre from the
stockholders and this great subsidy from
the public, is not embarrassed by the
restrictions put on the foreign directors
Of State subventioned theatres. He is
not compelled to perform. for instance,
two operas Of native composition every
year Nor has he any such RESPONSE
bility All that he must do s 10 keep up
his performances TO their present high
standard and follow the example Of his
predecessor who put New York's opera
on its present level.

Indiana's Grand Young Man.

In reading the Hon. ALBERT JEREMIAH
BEvER1DoE's speech upon the Statehood
bill we notice. with surprise and indigna-
ton, the attempts of some old Senator'S
to interrupt the majestic current of his
thought Thus Mr. BEvERIDGE said
that he would confirm certain assertion
by the testimony OF Mr.. ELKINs. Where
upon Mr.. ELRINs said crustily:
The Senator cannO. confirm Il by me. am
not his witness. He Is entirely mistaken.
Mr.. BnvsRIDoF-r am not surprised"
Not surprised to find himself accused
by his envious rivals OF being entirely
mistaken. In a moment Mr. FORAKER
was up and at him:
Mr.. FoRAKrRI rise merely to say to tho sena-
tor that used such language and the Senator
must know that | did not say anything about it
being made lgnorsu,ly OF tho facts. said perhaps
that proposition was made Ike other propositions
ore made. without null knowledge OF overy consid-
grafton that should DO taken into account and when
It was debated and Investigated they concluded
to divide In the other way.
Mr.. DEvRRDoE--l am willing to take the Sena-
tors statement that his words wvre without full
knowledge instead OF 'lgnorantly.
Mr.. FoRAKER--It IS not a question whether the
Senator is willing 10 take my statement. The

my statement

Mr.. roHAKER-I have not used any such inn

tween tue Senator and myself

ference between the Senator and myself

tween VIVA, said and whs, YOU said"
OF course there is. Passing through
a mind like Mr., BEvERIDGE's any propo-
sition. any language is enriched, meta
morphosed, glorifed.
Mr. TELLER declared that an averment
read by Mr. BEyERIDGE was absolutely
untrue" Mr.. BARp said he had made
no such statement az Mr.. BEyERIDGE
attributed to him So gnat after gnat
stung the young lion. Mr.. FORAKER read
a newspaper SYSTEMATICALLY, and was prop
erlv rebuked At last, however, justice
was done 10 intellect:

Such a compliment, so unexpected, so

nagging interruptions. The junior Senator
from Indiana knows a great deal that
the veterans of the Senate don't know.
And they know that he knows that they

who, naturally, will be still further inn
FILTERED by this concession, II Ia possible
that the agreement TO pay half Of their
present stipend to all existing priests
over 40 years of age will be modified to
greater or less extent
Whether the Rouvier bill will become
n law depends largely upon whether
in compliance with the pressure exerted
by NJ. CoMDRs and his friends, who are
still influential in some Of the Min
isterial groups-it is allowed TO take
precedence Of all other measures Is
il possible, even for a fnancier who
like NJ RoUvIER has hitherto enjoyed
the confidence of the business world,
TO drive through the Senate. az well
as the Chamber of Deputies, even an in
come tax so speoious that, as he AYERS,
it merely shifts the burden of taxation
from one shoulder to the other? 1t is
true that the amount Of the tax levied by
the proposed measure would not be
much, il any, greater than that which
is now paid The method Of raising it,
however would be vitality different for
it would involve valuation OF each
individuals property by means OF an
inquisitorial process. Who can say
moreover, that property once valued
would not be subjected hereafter TO i'm
mensely increased burdens should an old
ape napsinn fund he preatad and the
purchase OF all privately owned French
railways Of the State be authorized?
1t may well happen therefore. that an
income tax, though sanctioned by the
Chamber of Deputies, will be thrown out
by the Senate, in which event the Rouvier
Ministry might be wrecked on the same
rock which proved fatal to the Bour-
geois Cabinet That is tho sole hope of
the French Catholics.

In New England 100 years ago. II Va.

The Forthcoming santo Domin go
Treaty.

We print few extracts from the many
newspaper articles which have discussed
with intelligent frankness the Santo
Domingo incident and the apparent
attempt of somebody to bind this coun-
try by an unratifed treaty in the form
of an agreement or protocol. There is
little danger that the Constitution will
10 into desletude while the American
press, irrespective of party, maintains
It's accustom ed vigilance.
Perhaps the now generally admitted
prinople, so fundamental and 30 essen
tial to the preservation Of the Govern
ment of the Constitution, has been
stated by nobody more tersely and
forcibly than by the Hon. WAYNE MAC
VRAGH, Attorney General in President
GARFIELD's Cabinet:
The language Of our Constitution. framed by
Jne wisdom OF our fathers. ia exceptionally plain
end imperative as to the treaty making power.
j requires as = condition precedent to the maxi
tee Of am treaty. and even agreement between
this country and any foreign Power should DO
called treaty hersuse the Constitution calls
II, that y shall be submitted 10 'ho StnhW huu
that two thirds ~ the Senators present concur
In the wisdom Of making II. Their concurrence
makes Il part Of the supreme law Of the land
j. II conceivable that IN view Of such provisions

prone lav would hc subject TO tho caprice Of
every successor Of President ROOSEVELT. and the
wise men who framed the Constitution knew It
would he unsafe to trust the law making power
IN sny one man.
This principle having been asserted
effectively, both by the organs Of public
opinion and by the United States Senate
in it's vote Of Saturday last nothing will
stand in the way Of n careful and impair
