ton. The meeting was well attended,
and productive of good results. a He
brew school, known as "Talmud TOrah
Shearith Israel" was called into being,
and the following gentlemen were
elected to serve as officers and directors
of the institution for the first year:
President Ignatz Weltman vice pres
ident, Joseph Lieberman; secretary, b.
Zelinkotf treasurer, NJ. Levy; principal,
Jacob Tannenbaum.
Board of Drectors-Jacob Tannen-
baum, chairman; II. Toplitzky. J. \.
Weisbrod. Morris Friedman, l.. Wandel,
j. Klatzkin, Nj. Greenbaum. j. Wolf, \.
Iurwitz, j. Cohen, s. Rotman, NJ. Levy.
The Talmud Torah was opened for Ell
rollment on June 18th. with Mr.. Alder
as the teacher in charge. Since it's open
ing the school has prospered in every
way, so that at this time there are four
grades with a total of about fifty children
in daily attendance. On Wednesday
evening. August %, 1906, the board of
education held public examination of
the school, which was both instructive
and interesting. The president opened
the examination with few appropriate
remarks, and was followed by Rabbi c.
II. Kauvar. who explained to the chill
dren the import and significance OF the
Jewish religion, and the consequent ne
cessity for their understanding Hebrew.
Principal Tannenbaum, Mr.. b. HurwitZ
and two or three others of the board of
education then formally proceeded with
the examination. The highest class read
and translated the opening chapters Of
the bible with Il huency and ease. The
second class very creditably read and
translated different parts of the daily
prayers. The third class merely demon
strated their ability to read the daily
prayers huently, without translation:
while the fourth class proved to the
judges and visitors that while they were
only beginners, they would soon be eli
gible for promotion to an advanced
class. At the conclusion Of the exer-
cises the judges awarded a number of
suitable prizes to the best pupils in each
class.
On the whole. the examination was
very creditable to the children. their
teacher, Mr.. Alder, the officers and the
board Of education, who have worked
hard to make the school success 1t is
to be hoped that this Talmud Torah will
continue to do its good work. and re-
ceive the hearty support Of the Denver
Jewish community.

SEPARATION OF CHURCH
AND STATE COMPLETE.

Paris, Dec. 14.-The hrst day OF
the regime of separation of church
AID state passed without grave dis
orders. Public interest in the details
of the continuation of the struggle is
already tagging. 1t is now apparent
that the resistance of the clergy will
be purely passive, and there is no
prospect of religious passions being
aroused unless the churches are
closed. The government is there
fore resting on its oars, and will con-
tinue to do SO until the parliament
authorizes the drastic measure which
the cabinet is preparing. In the mean
time in this city, except in churches
where legal applications were filed,
the police again took notes of infrac-
tions of the law at the morning
masses

SPELLING REFORM
GETS DEATH BLOW.

New York, Dec. 14.-PrOfessor
Matthews, of Columbia University,
chairman of the executive commit
tee of the simplified spelling board,
declined to comment last night on
President Roosevelt's action yester-
day afternoon regarding the new
spelling. Yesterday Representative
Landis called on the President in re-
gard to the reformed spelling, and
the President agreed to withdraw his
order to the public printer in case
the house would go on record against
the system. Accordingly, Landis in
troduced a resolution favoring the
old method, and the house passed
it unanimously Matthews said he
had refused to comment on the Pres
fdent's original order, and must re-
fuse to criticise the Presidents ac-
ton now. He stated, however, that
the system of reformed spelling was
daily gaining friends both in this
country and in England.

SPECIAL MESSAGE ON
JAPANESE QUESTION.

Chicago, ILL.,, Dec IA special
dispatch to the Record-Herald from
Washington says: A special message
oa the Japanese question and Cali
fornla school problem supplementary
TO the treatment of these subjects
by President Roosevelt in his regu-
lar message last week, will be sent
to congress from the White House
next Tuesday.
1t is stated authoritatively that
this special message will be more
vigorous in tone than the former
communication, and will not be cal
cnlated to cool the indignation of
tie CalifornianS. The special mes
sage, moreover, aside from its local
application, will be one of the most
notable and important communica-
tlons in the entire list of those sent
to congress by the present Execu-
tive. 1t will bring to a direct issue
Capitalization scheme which will
likely form tne climax of endeavor
on the part of the Roosevelt admin
istration. The administration isl al
legged to take advanced ground regard
ing the doctrine of Federal suprem-
acy over state sovereignty.
The Japanese question raised in
connection with the school problem
of California has supplied the oppor
tunity to give forcible expression to
mighty scheme of Capitalization
that is to be ca led out if possible.
1t is not pc. ifie to forecast the
details of wnas the President will
say in his second message, which is
understood to be an explanation of
the administration projected policy
as to the supremacy of Federal con-
troll over state power, and will in
clude the report of the special inves-
tigation of the San Francisco school
question made by Secretary of Com
merce and Labor Metcalf. Regardless
of the nature of his report, the Pres
ident will adhere vigorously to the
position taken by him in his regular
message.
AS to Metcalf's report it has been
learned it's author found much to
condemn in the matter of treatment
of the Japanese outside of the school
question. 1t will show, it is under
stood, that labor union tyranny over
the Japanese affects the rights held
to be theirs by treaty in even a more
pronounced manner than anything
connected with the school imbroglio.
Matters of this nature in Metcalf's
report will furnish the key for many
arguments to be advanced by the
President in his message.

ROOSEVELT THE FORE
RUNNER OF BRYAN.

Guthrie, o. r., Dec. 14.-In ad-
dressing the Oklahoma Constitution
al convention today, Hon. Oscar b.
Colquitt, member of the Texas rail
road commission, declared that rail-
road rate regulation in Texas has
been a failure except in producing
uniformity, and he quoted Mr. May
field of the same commission as &C.
knowledgfng that it mad been almost
failure. Commenting on the effort
of President Roosevelt, Mr.. Colquitt
said that if strong men were kept on
the Interstate Commerce Commis-
sion and the courts did not nullify
their work, the Hepburn rate bill
might satisfy the people. Otherwise
he believed that Roosevelt would be
the "forerunler of Bryan
Colquitt was an advocate of rail-
road regulation in Texas when the
cause was championed by the late
Governor Hogg. He is the first prom
inent man in public life in Texas to
declare it has been a failure in re-
suits.
