ton, yesterday. Mr.. Newman
has spent considerable time in
North Dakota assisting at the
land Offices, clearing up the de-
tails in connection with contest
cases.
According to him, the land in
the western part of North Da-
kota are fertile and with the
past few years abundant rains
have incurred good crops.
Towns are springing up all
over that part of the state and
the railroads, approaching the
future of the country, are
branching out, tappingthe best
and most thickly settled por-
tons.
The Milwaukee road last
spring extended a branch
through the south western part
of the state and new towns
have sprung up like mush-
rooms along the line.
II find that in the govern.
ment land offices of the larger
cities litigation over land is
much keener and attorneys en-
ployed in contest cases make a
more lengthy and stubborn
fight. For that reason, even
though the number of cases is
smaller. the amount of litiga-
tons is larger, he remarked.

sympathy for the starving than do those
whose appetites have been fully APP
peased.
Throughout the centuries wherever
the Jew has lived, whether in the desert
of Sahara or in the fruitful fields Of Cal
ifornia, whether in the frozen Russias
or in the sunny South, he has always
looked on all his co-religionists, even
though oceans separated him from them,
as spiritually one people, all believing in
one God. The Jews always were and al
ways will remain one people in order
that their divinely instituted mission to
carry the word of God may be fulfilled.
A spiritual union is also recognized
in our prayers, whether uttered by the
halting lips Of the little child or the ex-
piring breath of withercd age. The
prayer always was, and always will be
''Sh ma Yisruel'.' ''Hear Israel" it
never was, and never will be, "Sh 'mu
Yisraelim, - Clear Israelites, - the Lord
our God is One.
From the first to the last OF all
earthly career, the Jews have believed in
the one God who proclaimed them as
his chosen people and our proclamation
of our belief in God is made not to per-
sons, but to the entire people. 1t always
was "Hear Israel that is to say,
Hear ye people, Thus it was, and
thus it will be, even unto eternity. This
is the Union in Israel, as old as the birth
of spiritual precept, as lasting as time.
Let us not have any new unions so
fraught with peril to the liberties we en-
joy in this blessed land, and through
them, ultimately, to the liberties Of our
people everywhere. Let us cherish the
liberties we have here, and should any
such attempt be made in the future to
divide Jewish citizens from the rest of
American citizens, let every member of
our order proclaim in all parts of the
land:
''Hear Israel, Beware, fo- the cup
which is being placed to your lips con-
tains not salvation, but death. -

Of liberty and Of Righteousness, or IN
other words, the hope and faith OF both
Judaism and America to other darker
parts of the earth And in measure, as
this light will spread abroad, persecu-
tion and unbrotherliness will cease to
exist, hatred will give way to love, and
the Jew, the world over, will be re
deemed from his bondage. But to attain
that end, we must ourselves have a care
that we leave to the duly elected officials
of our government, spurred on by the
great just heart Of the American peo-
pie, such official action on behalf OF our
people as may seem to them best, and not
by the. action of a meddlesome commit
tee assuming to speak on behalf OF the
Jews and by that token, to coerce, de-
prive our people in other lands of our
country's vast influence, and ourselves
of it's equal protection.
The unity of American Israel must
never be symbolzed by any organization
other than voluntary or spiritual. We
shall not thoughtlessly or Intentionally
give countenance to the suspicion that
we Jews i'm America stand aiOof from
the American Of other ancestry or other
formula Of belief. Whatever OF Union
in Israeli is needed the Order Of B mai
B 'rith furnishes.
If the founders of the Order had any
intention nearer their heart than all
other, or any purpose more sacred than
another, when they laid. the cornerstone
of our fraternity's temple, it was to
''unite all Israelites on the brOadest
basis of philanthropy and humanity -
Throughout our ritual this is the basic
note which ever and ever again is
struck And even those unfriendly to
us must admit that on the whole the
pilots have steered with good success,
the craft, by this star. The Order was
the expression of American 1srael's un
ity, when no other organization had as
yet come into being to remind the sons
of the covenant that we had duties and
responsibilities that were common to all,
regardless Of the divisions or the con-
dition or the disagreements concerning
points Of doctrine, or matters Of ritual
practice, or place of birth. And since
the Order has enlarged it's tentchords,
since it has crossed the sea, it again SYM
bolizes by it's very existence that Israel
is a unit vaster than any that could be
expressed in geographical terms. .
We have been welded together
in the strongest union the world has
ever known, by centuries Of persecution
from which the Jew in no land was al
ways exempt. But our union was the
union Of sorrow and suffering, so long

Response of Mr.. Adolph kraus
At the Banquet Given to District Grand
Lodge No. 2, at Louisville, Kentucky
May 27, 1907, to the Toast,
"Union in Israel"

bv the fierce fire of fanatical hate into
bloodthirsty brutes, outshamed st. Bar
tholomoe S night by the infamous klsh-
eneff butcheries, cry has been heard all
over this land by our people for union
in Israel.
The moment the Jews in this country
unite for any purpose which might be
construed as of political nature, that
moment they draw themselves away
from the great body Of citizens; and just
as surely as that division should be ac-
complished, and the fact recognized that
the Jew in this country must be dealt
with, not as plain American citizen,
but as member of a great Jewish Or
ganization, whose numbers alone would
give significance to any demands that
might be made, just as surely may 1t be
expected that the great body OF citizens
would organize to resist such demands.
and the Jew, by his own ifault, would
suffer in proportion as the one body is,
and in the nature of things always will
be, stronger than the other. Let us not
invite for our people this peril which Is
almost bound to follow whenever we seq
regate ourselves into body for the pur-
pose of influencing the action Of our gov
ernment for ends affecting somehow or
other, only Jews.
Our government has never been deaf
to the appeal Of distress Its good offices
have never been refused when humanity
raised her voice in behalf of the perse-
cuted and down-trodden. There was
and is, therefore, no reason to depart
from the good old methods. Instead of
advancing the cause of the Jews, the as
sumption by any organization or COM
mittee, Of the power to speak on behalf
of the Jews as distinct component Of
the body polite would soon lead to COM
plications detrimental to the very cause
that we have at heart.
Let us be ready to act when necessity
arises, but let us have care not to i'm
peril our own Americanism by mis-
guided zeal for distinct and official or
carnations created with ideas that are
repugnant to the spirit Of American citi-
zenship as well as of Judaism in Amer
lea.
We are convinced that Israel s unity
is not dependent on geographical or po
litical restrictions, or on the limitations
or; restrictions of the pale or the ghetto.
We may boldly emphasize our belief
that though dispersed throughout many
lands, Israel is still one.
America is one of God s chosen in
struments to lead the world onward.
By giving to America the best we have,
and that best as sanctifed by our Juda

Don't be timid if you have any good
COWS or heifers in the pasture, but ship
them to market The packers edict
does not cut any ice. 1t has been dem
onstrated now that the packer is not
an indispensable factor in the COW mar
ket. There are other buyers in the
country who want cows, and there are
lots of people who would rather patron
ize the small butcher than the big
packer. There ia enough independent
demand at the present time to take a
normal supply Of COWS and heifers.
While it is well to practice conserva-
tism moderately, there is really nothing
to be afraid Of Prices are at least
25c higher than they were before the
packers voted themselves out of the
deal. and the market will keep going
up unless greater supply Is secured.
The situation is something like this:
The packer being frozen out of the COW
market, is buying the steers so freely
that he has boosted the price out of
reach of the country butcher. The
latter. however. is buying the cows and
heifers, so il is in a nature Of swap,
and there is a good reliable outlet for
everything. No, need of holding the
