congesting the already congested
towns. and engendering all the
spiritual ills which must inevitab.
ly accompany the confusion of at
mosphere and ideas attendant on
too rapid assimilation with its
! hopeless alienation of parents and
| children.
| Nor is the sum of spiritual evils
| lessened if the wanderers are de-
ported In families or small patches
to rural solitudes, where they feel
themselves exiled and sundered
from the brotherhood of Israel.
From the financial standpoint
great economic waste occurs in
these migrations. The Jews of
New York, and of the United
States generally, are enormously
taxed in helping the immigrants
to settle down. Sums sufficient to
charity without any permanent So
luton of the Jewish question.
But this immigration into par
ticular centers cannot even go
long unchecked. The stream of
emigration, following the line of
least resistance, flows into coun-
tries with the least anti-Semitism,
but by its flowing it increases the
local antiSemitism, till saturation
point is reached, and the immigra-
ton is restrained by law.
And here be it remarked that
the stream of Jewish emigration
to which so many people object on
SO many grounds, is not a curse
but a blessing to the lands over
which it flows. The Jewish labor
force is in truth one of the most
potent reservoirs of life and ener-
gy in the world. Not its impotency
but its competitive potency is the
true ground of the shortsighted OBJ
jectiOns to its advent. 1t is a Nile
which, split into small streams,
flowing everywhere, loses it's force
as a Jewish power, though it per-
forms work for other powers in
every quarter.
The obvious consideration sug-
gests itself. Is it impossible for
Jewish labor and capital to create

horses were carried several feet on
the fender of the car. The wogan
pole was broken and four sets of
harness more or less damaged.
On Monday, Balloon Red" one
of the showmen, in attempting to
stop a runaway and saving the life
OF one of the women thereby, was
knocked unconscious by being
kicked in the head after he had
fallen under the stamping heels

somewhat injured also. Sunday a
high wind tore the expensive tent.

SHORTAGE OF RAILS
DELAYS ROAD

A shortage of steel rails is all
that is holding back further pro-
gress on the Hayden Lake branch
of the Occur d Alene & Spokane
electric line and as soon as this ar
rives the work will be taken up
again and the road is expected to
be in operation by August l at the
latest. Work of grading the main
line of the branch was finished
yesterday. Hayden Lake is one of
the most popular summer resorts
in the northwest and many Spo-
kane people have cosy summer
cottages located there.

LOOK FOR SETTLEMENT.

The Tefft & Schaeffer labor trou-
BILE will probably be settled to the
satisfaction Of all concerned. Com
mittees are now working out a
scheme to adjust the entire con-
troversy. If the firm adheres to
It's original basis of settlement
there is no reason why this mat
ter cannot become matter of an
cient history. The bad feature Of
this trouble has been In it's forcing
the Tefft & Schaffer people to sell
their ice through the Diamond Ice
people, thereby giving the latter a
monopoly of the ice business Of
this city.

COONEY RESIGNS.

E. A. Cooney, until recently a
member of the organization COM
mittee of the Central Labor Union,
said this morning that he had re-
signed from the organization COM
mittee at the last meeting of the
central body as his duties as local
organizer for the American FEEDER
alton of Labor occupied so much Of
his time. Mr.. Cooney expects to
organize several branches of local
labor that are now unorganized
into unions. Some of these new
bodies it is expected will have a
charter membership of nearly 100.

HIS LOVE
REMAINS

Frequent arrests quiet not the
love of Louis Ripoli, an Italian
shoemaker for Rosa, daughter of
sunny Italy, who follows the occu-
patton (while she is not lodging
Louie) of waitress in a Main ave-
nue. restaurant. Each time he has
pressed his suit she has told to go
get a reputation, or something to
that effect. Twice before LolAe
has been behind the cold bars at
the city jail, once for threatening
to kill Rosa, and again for boxing
her ears.
He was making things stir in
the Italian quarter last night, when
friends of Rosa told Patrolman Nc
quillan and he arrested Louie, and
he is now under bonds of 5000 TO
keep the peace.

Another orm of the homing in
stinct that is asserting itself
among the Jewish people and
which has found an expression in
the Zionist movement. has resulted
in the formation of the ITO by /.
Zangwill, the gifted authohr of the
race. The word ITO stands for
Jewish Territorial Organization,
the object of which is TO procure
a territory upon an autonomous
basis for those Jews who cannot
or do not wish to remain in the
lands in which they at present
live.
In this article, written especially
for The Press, Z-ngwill tells of the
principle of the movement and the
demand for it. The ITO has al
ready effected an international or
ganization.
Just where the Jewish state will
be founded has not been deter
mined. There has been some talk
about cession of a portion of East
Africa by Great Britain, but the
organization is looking all over the
world for a procurable territory
large enough, fertile enough and
healthy enough.
BY !. ZangWill.
The tragic problem of the Wan
dering Jew grows daily more in
sistent. In the language of DR..
Adler chief rabbi of the British
empire, the question of the hour
is: Women?
At least 100000 Jews wander
forth each year from the lands of
poverty and oppression, whether
in quest of better life conditions or
actually to escape death by star
walton or massacre.
The channel sought are princi-
pally the United States and Eng
land, but Canada, the Argentine
South Africa, etc, all have their
streams of Jewish immigration. In
all these centers of refuge, the
tendency of the immigrants is to
remain near their friends and rela-
tives already in the land, and thus
to form great ghettos, unhealthy
