An amendment to the constitution was
presented by the Congregation Of Chat
tanOoga, Tennessee, that no member OF
the board of governors, except the chair
man thereof, shall be a member OF the eX-
ecutive board, and no member Of the
board of governors Of the Hebrew Union
College shall be member of the faculty
of that institution. The constitution of
the union provides that whenever an
amendment is presented to be submit
ted to the council the executive board
must express it's views on the subject
This being the case, the board resolved
that it's views are that the amendment be
not adopted, as they believe the best in
terests of the Union of American Hebrew
Congregations and of the Hebrew Union
College would not be subserved by adopt
ing it.
A communication was read from a
committee from London, England, ask
ing the union to participate in a general
Jewish organization to deal with such
problems as confront our brothers in
Russia, etc. The communication was on

Dreyfus Vindicated

The Court Of Cessation, the supreme
court Of France last Thursday an
nounced it's decision annulling the con
demnation of Dreyfus without retrial.
The effect of the decision is a complete
vindication Of Dreyfus, emitting him to
restoration to his rank in the army as
though he had never been accused. On
the day following the Chamber OF Depu-
ties passed bill by an overwhelming ma
jority instructing the government to adj
vance Dreyfus to the rank Of major.
We give here in short the important
historical facts in this case which has
occupied the attention Of the civilized
world since October, 1894.
Capt. Alfred Dreyfus Of the artillery,
a member of a wealthy Jewish family OF
Alsace, where he was born in 1859, was
on October IA, 1894 arrested on the
charge Of communicating French mill
tary secrets to a foreign power. Two
months later Dreyfus was tried by court
martial and found guilty, and January
5th he was publicly degraded and de-
ported to DEVILS island, near Cayenne,
French Guiana, there apparently to
spend the remainder Of his life. The
friends and realtives Of Dreyfus, notably
his wife,, always believed in his inno-
cence, and devoted all their energies to
the work Of proving that he had been
unjustly condemned.
The Jewish outlook., 1906-07-20

Colonel Picquart, when he became
chief Of the intelligence department OF
the French army in 1895, examined the
documents in the proceedings against
Dreyfus and questioned the correctness
of the proceedings, and continuing his in
vestigations formed the opinion that the
evidence pointed to Major Count Ester
hazy as being the guilty man. Picquart
determined to see that Justice was done
and there ensued fight to preserve the
honor Of the French army.
Dreyfus, on November Is, 1897,
charged Esterhazy with writing the most
discriminating document, but the latter
was acquitted by cOurt-martlal in the
following January.
The late Emile Zola warmly espoused
the cause Of Dreyfus and made serious
charges against the French general staff
and was condemned to pay heavy fine
and suffer imprisonment, but the SEN
tence was quashed.
When NJ Cavaignac became head OF
the French war office he read in the
Chamber of Deputies several documents
which, he said, proved the guilt of Drey
fus.
Colonel Picquart afterward urged that
the documents were forgeries, for which
he was arrested and degraded.
At the last national elections of France
the Dreyfus case played the most impor-
tant part. The leaders Of the anti-Drey
fus party, the National party were badly
beaten, while the leaders of the Repub
lican party, who were the champions of
the unjustly condemned man, were every
where victorious. And now comes his
complete vindication and the condemned
captain is promoted to the rank of major.

Jewish immigration Statistics

According to the annual report Of the
commissioner general of immigration at
Washington 1,O26, ,499 immigrantsl landed
in American ports during the fiscal year
from July l, 1904, to June 80, 1905. Of
these 724 ,914 were men and 3O1 ,5S5 wo-
men.
Of the total number of immigrants
129,91O were Jews-S2,O76 males and
47,S34 females. Compared with the pre-
ceding year the number of Jews is con-
sderably greater. 1t was then 1O6, ,236.
The immigration Of the Jews during the
year OF the report has been the greatest
in the history of the country. 1t should
be remarked in addition that only those
persons whose mother tongue is Yiddish
are classified as "Jews" z" those Jews who
speak German, French or English are
registered as Germans, Frenchmen and
Englishmen. The statistics of immigra-
tion as result of this system of regis
tration give only the number Of Jewish
immigrants coming from Russia, Aus
tria-Hungary and Roumana. We're all
the adherents of the Jewish religion in
cluded the figures would be considerably
increased
The Jewish immigrants came from the
various countries of the world in the
following proportions:

BITS OF BYPLAY,

Once upon a time three citizens of
Marion settled an election dispute by
the purchase and drinking Of bottle
of wealthy water" To the uninitai-
ted we interpret wealthy water" as
champagne. 1t tingled in the finger
tips. Twas the first and the last
Alpha and Omega. The beginning and
the end.
Brother John S. Henry. Of this town,
was complaining the other day of his
manifold and arduous duties. He stat
ed that he was chairman. secretary
and treasurer Of the Missionary Board
Of the Ohio River Association which
handles about $500 per year. He also
is agent for four fire insurance com.
panies. He has pastoral charge Of
four churches requiring his strict at
tention and that to reach them he has
to swing around circle Of about sixty
miles. He is bald headed. has seven
children and his feet are too small.
This last would appear to be a joke to
the average reader, but to Bro. Henry
1t is a serious and perplexing annoy
ance. For his size and weight he
should wear number nine shoe. He
wears, IL We mistake not. a number
five, and his locomotion is thereby ser
iously impeded. Brother Henry is fine
man and good preacher. He believes
in wearing out ana not iusting out.

A little town boy Of four or five
wanted a croquet set and wanted il
bad. He wanted il So bad he could
hardly eat or sleep. His mother listen
ed to his tale Of woe and referred him
to the sterner parent. In order that
he might have a fair show he planned
to walk up town with papa and argue
the case while on foot. II is said that
motion sharpens the wits. After the
case was made up and the argument
all in he returned home and his mother
ask him what success. With a long
face and sorrowfu shake Of the head
he replied: Mamma, papa would no,
take my advice"
