The Jewish outlook., 1906-06-01

France and some other European powers
have the right to exert their influence.
So far as Russia is concerned, perhaps
we might be little careful about our eX-
pressions of sympathy, in view of the
we'll established fact, which has been
vOuched for by most sober correspond
ents of British newspapers, that the
Jews have been at the bottom of most
of the social troubles that have arisen in
Russia-that great deal of the money
that has been raised by subscriptions in
foreign countries on behalf of the Rus
sian Jews has been as a matter of fact
used in purchasing firearms and sup
plies for the revolutionists Therefore it
might be embarrassing for the British
government, of which I suppose my
honorable friend from Toronto is a loyal
supporter, if we passed resolution here
asking the British Parliament to express
sympathy for people who, having taken
a large share in the revolution in Rus
sa. are now to certain extent suffer-
ers from that revolution. 1t is a we'll
known fact that this has been published
in the London "Times," that the
saughte1s in some of the Russian cities
were made by the Christians because the
Jews had prepared a conspiracy to
slaughter the Christians.
Now, so far as the charity of the Jew
ish people is concerned, I shall not 60
into long historical study. I certainly
sympathize with the Jews for some Of
the prosecutions to which they have been
subjected on account of their religious
belief, but as had been very clearly
stated time and again by one of the most
illustrous of English writers, Mr.. Gold
win Smith, the sentiment of hatred
against the Jews, not only in Russia, but
in other countries, does not come from
racial or religious feeling, but from the
fact that the Jew does not assimilate
himself to the country in which he is
living, except to that extent that will
enable him to profit by the citizenship
of the country in which he is living in
order to enrich himself and contribute
in the least possible degree to the de-
velopment of that country. 1t is a we'll
known fact that the Jews do not become
owners of property to large extent. In
Russia, especially, they have not pur-
chased land, but have lived and en-
riched themselves to an enormous extent
by extorting from the poor people not
only their money but the blood of their
life, and repeating, in fact, the historical
example that was illustrated some 300
years ago, by the greatest of English
poets. In days of revolution, the COM
mon people simply go and strike blindly
and instinctiyely against the people who

adian House OF Commons about tort
night ago, condemning the recent massa-
cres of Jews in Russia. A number OF
speeches were made by members in favor
of these resolutions.
One speaker, however, Henri BOur
assa, representing the LABEL district,
bitterly opposed this resolution. In the
words of the Montreal Daily Star, which
prints his speech in full, he spoke his
mind bluntly The following is the full
text of this astounding and frank at
tack:
Mr.. Henri Bourassa (Labelle) - Mr..
Speaker, in case this motion should re
suit as some other motions for the ad-
journment of debates have resulted IN
times past, l think this debate should
not be ended without some sober thought
should be expressed now to clear the at
mosphere of what l might call the fictl-
tious sentiment which has been sought to
be developed in this country in favor OF
the Jews. I need not say that ! am ami
mated by no feelings against the Jews,
any more than l suppose the honorable
member for South Toronto (Mr Mae
donnelD is animated by consideration OF
the influence the Jewish vote may have IN
his constituency I take for granted,
that both my honorable friend and my
self are speaking our mind on this sub
ject. I may say in passing that the
province Of Quebec was the first part OF
the British Empire to accord to the
Jews their rights as citizens. Even at
the time when my cO-religlOnlsts and
those of my honorable friend were de-
MED those rights in England, the
French Canadian Catholics in the
Province of Quebec passed a law-and if
may speak personally, I may say that
my own grandfather was the author OF
ito give the Jews civil rights in the
Province of Quebec, before England or
dny other part of the British Empire
had done so. But, if we allow ourselves,
even before we have the right to rule
ourselves as a nation, to be drawn into
debates on international questions and to
take upon ourselves the tremendous re-
sponsibility of advising all nations on
earth what they should do in regard to
their internal affairs, I think we should
take care to study little the questions
on which we pass resolutions, otherwise
our action might carry us very far.
"For instance, we might be induced
to pass resolutions condemning the bar
barous custom of lynching which is kept
up in the United States in time OF peace,
and when there is no social revolution
to excuse the American government for
not stamping out that barbarous custom.

IS THE GOVERNOR TO BLAME
FOR THE BAD LIQUOR LAW?

and defects of the old laws. This bill
was referred TO a special legislative
committee which in due course waited
upon Governor Carter with the object
of sounding him as to his personal
point of view. The Governor, with that
characteristic bluntness for which he
has become renowned. told the COM
mittee point blank that he would have
none of it. in short that if a bill such
as that submitted should pass both
Houses, he would promptly veto it.
He thereupon substituted another bill
which was supposed to be the out
come of numerous private conferences
that he Rad previously held with all
the warning factions interested, not
emitting the Anti-saloon League and
the Y. w. c. 7. Union. This bin with
slight amendments. subsequently be-
came the law which has brought us
to our present sorry plight. To our
strenuous Governor therefore, is due
the greater share of honor.
On the other hand, had the liquor
mems rejected bill become law, there
would not now be found in the Terri
tory one-haif the number of saloons
that exist at present and what is more,
the licenses would all be held by bona
flde citizens, much the same as is the
rule obtaining in several states on the
mainland.
AT the time when I first became en-
sGge.1 in this trade in Honolulu, the
high licenses only We're issued, and
they We're in the hands of such men
as E. S. Cunha, c. ]. Mccarthy and
s. /. Shaw, men whose manner of
conducting their saloons has ever been
above reproach, being carried on as
orderly and respectfully as is COM
patible with the nature of a business
which can never be entirely purged
of some Objectionable features, as long
as poor human nature remains what
it is. But no, this would not satisfy
the rabid temperance element, which
must needs keep on tinkering with our
liquor laws and, as a consequence has
kept US ever since going from bad to
worse I therefore most heartily en-
dorse your sentiments that it were
better. far better for the Territory to
readopt the statutes which worked so
well in the old days-provided always
as you further say. that no wiser ones
can be framed. And as to that, there
is no telling what the womb of the
future may bring forth. We shall see
what we shall see.
Respectfully.

Editor Sunday Advertiser: Having
read with much interest your article
in last Fridays issue dealing with the
local liquor problem, and being strong
iy impressed with the earnestness of
your arguments, I feel nevertheless
constrained to crave your indulgence
while I call your attention to a fact
which you appear to have overlooked.
The blame for the existing deplorable
state Of affairs can not be laid alto
gether at the door of the liquor men
themselves, nor the representatives of
the voters, nor the police. AS regards
the former of these. especially, Mr.
Editor, 1 would respectfully remind
you that the Liquor Dealers Associa-
ton during the last session of the
Legislature held several meetings, and
finally agreed upon a measure which
would, according to their best judg-
ment and belief, rectify the abuses

THE TRUTH ALWAYS,

"When you are in doubt tell
the truth" It was an expert
enced old diplomat who said this
to a beginner n the work. 1t
may pass in some things, but
not in business. Fraud and de-
ception are often profitable so
long as concealed; yet detection
Is certain sooner or later; then
comes the smash-up and the
punishment. The best and safest
way is to tell the truth all the
time. Thus you make friends
that stick by you, and reputa-
ton that is always worth twen-
ty shillings to the pound every
where your goods are offered for
sale. We are able modestly to
affirm, that it is on this basis
that the worldwide popularity of
WAMPOLE'S PREPARATION
rests. The people have discov-
cred that this medicine is exact
~ what it is said to be, and
that it does what we have al
ways declared it will do. It's ma
ture also has been frankly made
known. It is palatable as honey
and contains all the nutritive and
curative properties of Pure Cod
Liver Oil, extracted by US from
fresh cod livers, combined with
the Compound Syrup of Hypo-
phosphites and the Extracts of

bination of supreme excellence
and medicinal merit. Nothing

BIG FIRE AT NEWPORT MONDAY
Creighton Hotel, Christian Church. and Parsonage Were To-
 tally Destroyed

Newport was visited by anoth- CT disastrous fire Monday morn ing about one o'clock, the fire originating in the laundry of the Hotel Creighton, which was to- tally destroyed together with the Christian church and parsonage on an adjoining lot.
 A very slight breeze from the northeast carried the sparks sev- eral blocks and set fire to the roofs of three residences, those of J. 5. Williams, w. J. Knox, Jr., and the cottage owned by R. T. Simmons, adjoining his home on the south. The losses in these in- stances were light, and fully GOV cred by insurance.
 The aggregate loss will exceed S15, ,000, with only about S10, ,000 insurance.
 Several narrow escapes were re- ported by the lodgers at the Creighton hotel. Among those who had close calls for their lives were J. B. Keithley, Charles Hip polite and F. E. Vining. All had rooms on the third floor, and were awakened barely in time to escape partially clothed.
 Friends of F. k. Vining broke open his door and aroused him just in time to escape before flames cut off the stairway. Nearly all the lodgers on this floor lost most of their effects. The lights were cut off, and fearing to be lost in the smoke they were forced to make hurried departure.
 Capt. J. H. McHugh, owner of the Creighton Hotel, which was valued at SS, 800, carried $500 insurance. The furniture and fix lures were worth S2, 2,500, and were insured for S1,000; annex building and furniture, loss about $400 covered by insurance. F. E. Watson, lessee of the Creighton hotel, suffered Sl 200 loss on the hotel with $500 insurance.
 The Christian church was val ued at S2, 300, and is total loss with insurance at 5000 on the building. The organ and seats were saved, but the loss on furni- ture exceeds the insurance of S100. The church parsonage was a total loss, and was valued at S750; in- surance, $500.
