Democratic independent coalition was
never so strong as It is today. Said one
veteran campaigner from that lively city:
There is only the barest chance that
the Republicans can carry Newport next
fall That chance Is dependent largely
upon whether George Peabody Wetmore
Is made the Republican nominee for the
United States senate again.
"In that event he might possibly carry
Newport county, including the city OF
Newport; but IL would be only by very
close shave.
IF wetmore II not the candidate, the
anti Republican ticket will sweep the
county
Outside OF Newport county see little
hope for Republican success. as 70 would
be only the favorite son idea that would
tend TO strengthen wetmore and the Re-
publican party In our county.

The Jewish outlook., 1906-03-23

sidering the conditions under which
they have lived in Russia and Rou
mania they are freer from criminal
acts, than any other people. The sta
tistics in your own city will prove this
beyond a question. The percentage of
criminals to the number of Jews resi-
dents in New York is comparatively
small, and as | abundantly proved last
year in my message to the Order OF
b mai B 'rith.
AS to the Christianizing of the Jews
that has been attempted time and
again by ADLER men than the Rev. Mr..
Russell, and lamentably failed. The
Jew who is worth saving will not be-
come a Christian, and the Jew who
would become Christian is not worthy
of being saved 1 would respectfully
suggest to the reverend gentleman and
others like him that there is a far greater
field for saving souls than to invade the
domain of the Jew, and that is to do
as Macaulay said in answer, "How the
streets of Jerusalem are kept clean,' by
replying, "that if every one swept be-
fore his own door, there would not be
any necessity for general law on the
subject; and so 1 say, if our friends
and fellow Americans Of Christian faith
were to take care Of their own, they
would have work enough for the next
century, and as you so tersely and
truthfully say, "The Jews having wor-
ried along for four thousand years, they
can take care Of themselves without
your help.' Every day we have evil
dence Of this hysterical intrusion into
the rights Of other peoples faith. Our
warships and our armies are sent into
China and into other parts Of the world
to protect those who have no right to
be in those countries in the business
they are engaged in; and I doubt very
much whether the good Mr.. Russell

Simon VOLTS Reply

The Hon. Simon Wolf of Washington
with his characteristic energy and alert
ness, wrote an appreciation of the edi
torial which appeared in the New York
journal, from which we quoted last
week, which appreciation was directed
to the journal. Our readers will be in
terested in what Mr.. Wolf has to say
on the subject. We reprint his letter,
practically in full:

Jews Fear Easter

With the approach of Easter, our
brethren in Russia again fear violence
and they are exerting every effort to pre-
vent it. A dispatch from st. Peters
burg is ominous. 1t is dated March 19th
The fears Of renewal of Jewish mas
sacres at Easter, to which a deputation
recently called Premier Witte's atten-
ton, appear upon investigation to have
real foundation. The "Black Hundred
organizations in European Russia are
conducting an agitation to slaughter the
'Enemes of Russia" Circulars have
been prepared in st. Petersburg calling
for the determination Of the Jews. At
Minsk the Society Of Old Believers has
addressed request to the premier for
permission to crush the nation s foes.
The premier Immediately notified the
governor general Of Minsk to take meas
ures to prevent any outbreak. Never
theless in many places reactionary Off.
cials and police who regard the Jews as
the meters of the late revolution are
doing nothing.
The members of the deputation which
called on the premier were really
alarmed. The appeal which they pre-
sented to the premier charged that a
propaganda against the Jews was openly
proceeding under the cover Of patriotism
and love Of the Emperor, hundreds of
thousands Of pamphlets being circulated
among the ignorant classes Of the popu-
lation who are accustomed to regard
printed words as gospel. The local au-
thorities, the deputation added, are clos
ing their eyes, with the result that the
Jewish population is threatened with
more dreadful outrages than those Of last
fall.
