long companion, or it will be a fatal
means Of disruption and decay of the
spiritual and often the entire union.
This conception of marriage, the Jew
is called upon to clearly grasp and
avow In it is contained the solution
for present disorganized and depraved
domestic conditions The care lies in
the view Of marriage, in the purpose
with which it is contracted, in the con-
ditions by which it is summoned rather
than in restrictions or in furnishing
easy means of escape after this sacred
relation has been entered into.
The marriage relation has always
been marked in Israel by it's permanencc
not less than by its sacredness. Any
disposition tc detract from the one or
degrade the other is denounced by the
prophet Malachi as betrayal of the COW
enant and violence, objectionable by
God. (M"l. 2, 11-17.).
In the recognition and preservation
Of these virtues, of this sanctifcation Of
marriages., lies Israel's permanence and
prominence. In this Israel has a real
mission to the world. Already man ac-
claimed for it; may this praise remain
as the chief jewel in our diadem that ali
nations may say as did the heathen
prophet Balaam, "How beautiful ara
thy homes, O, Jacob, thy dwelling
places, O, Israeli"

Emigration from Posen

The remarkable phenomenon of the
constant emigration Of the Jews from
the province of Posen, which up to fifty
years ago contained one fourth Of the
Jews Of Prussia, is not due to economic
causes alone, but has also it's political
side. The Poles, who form the majority
Of the population, persecute the Jews
not only as Jews, but also as supporters
Of the Germans, while the latter perse-
cute them as Semites A Catholic priest
recently addressed meeting in which
he urged the masses to boycott the Jews,
and announced that he had organized
system Of espionage exposing everyone
who dealt at Jewish store or took a
drink at Jewish inn. Meetings in Ger
many are always watched by the police,
and the officer in charge made report
of this case as being an infringement Of
the law. The anti-Semitic German pa
pers and agitators preach the same doc
trine all the year round, but the Govern
ment takes no action, while in the case
OF the Polish propaganda the matter as
sumes different aspect the law furnish
ing a convenient opportunity to annoy
the Polish agitators. The effect of this
political condition can be observed al
most daily as for instance it was re-
Gently announced that the synagogue of
NeSla was sold, there being only two
Jewish families left in the place.

faithfulness"
Such a view of marriage as complete
and exalted existence is indicated in
the formula with which the marriage
relation is proclaimed mekudeshes. Ii
is a sanctitication of the wife to the hrs-
band Not only separation from the
world, but elevation is indicated. THAI
this sanctifcation of life belongs espe-
cially to the woman is a thought that
cften presents itself in rabbinical litera
ture. The story is told Of a good cou
pie estranged and divorced from each
other; each Of whom remarry and this
time to evil mates the man falls to the
level Of mis- evil wife; the good wife ele
Yates her low husband to her level.
To such /. conception Of marriage it
needs not be said the thought of a tenn
porary marriage or trial marriage is
horrid proclamation, repugnant to de-
cency and to the fundamental princi-
pie of the marriage state.
Two things are prominent from this
understanding and consideration Of
marriage.
0) That it is a desirable, nay, nee
essary and normal existence.
(2) That it calls for the exercise OF
the highest impulses of man.
Marriage is not to be entered into
lightly Deliberation is requisite, not
the heat Of passion, nor the sordid cal
culation Of greed. If one is to choose
wisely it must be when he has attained
maturity, and knows what his nature
and station demand. Too early mar
riages are not desirable, nor is marriage
too long postponed The love of man
for woman is illuminative Of this inner
sympathy and affinity, but when it is
but the symptom for passion or frivol-
ity, when it is derogative to the true
nobility Of the marriage state, when it
approves itself neither to reason nor
morality, It is not deliberative, but de-
structive of the true marriage state.
With this subject the question Of
mixed marriages must necessarily be
considered.
If true marriage is the full life be-
fore and with God, it goes without say
ing that a marriage contracted in dis
regard Of this fundamental relation
cannot be a true one. If religion is
anything i; is a fundamental condi-
ton, in which there must be essential
harmony. A conflict of religion means
not the strengthening, but the elimina-
ton Of the sanctities of life.

essaril!' fatal, and generally the ques-

derstanding it's provisions and teachings
in advance of that moment when it's
ministrations are needed but to formally
complete what has already been deter
mined upcn.
The Jewish conception Of marriage IS
that it constitutes the normal fulfill
ment Of life; the rounding out Of the
individual nature by providing that
which will complement and complete
all its activities. In the opening chap
ters of the Bible albeit in symbolic Ian
guage, this view Of marriage is pre-
sented. The narrative Of the creation
of Eve indicates the essential unity of
the marriage relation The very name
in Hebrew Of wife indicates identity
with husband (ish) is husband, (isho)
wife. part of the husband.
In announcing man s nature as the re-
Election Of divinity, the Bible declares:
''And God created man in His image,
in the image of God created He him,
male and female created He them
(Gen. l :2O.
10 this r. Simlai offered this explana-
ton: God says, ''In former times man
was created from the dust and Eve
IRON man, but from now and onWards
in our image and likeness, no man with
cut woman, no woman without man,
and neither without the Shechina, or
God s presence
In these somewhat mystic words th',
Jewish ideal of marriage is conveyed.
1t is the fullness and completion of
life in it's highest and truest form as
mirroring the divine. In explaining
those salient words, ''It is not well for
man to be alone; l will make help
mate for him. The rabbis say, "Man
is not complete in himself, nor is wo-
man. The sages say: ''He that is un-
married is without fortune (tov), with
cut a helper (cser), without joy (s'm-
cha), without atoning power (kapora),
without peace (shalom), and that he
diminshes the similitude to God"
This conception Of the marriage rela-
tion lifts it up out Of arbitrariness and
invests it with clearly defined purposes,
conditions and nobility. To the Jew
sh mind it represents the highest estate
Of which humanity is capable, and is
therefore used by the prophets to SYM
bolize Israe's relation with the Torah,
tc which it is betrothed while to all the
heather nations it is practically forbid
uen. Thus marriage relation even SYM
bolizes Israel s relation to God himself,
and the prophet can furnish Israel no
higher designation for it's reunion with

election Of race bishops, in which the ar
guments pro and con are of much the
same order as those we have summar-
lied above. Both controversies are a
significant reminder of the strength and
indelibility Of race feeling. which even
the gospel OF human brotherhood cannot
overcome.

A Nature Faker Sidesteps.

Mr.. Ernest Thompson-Seton, or Thomp-
son Seton Ernest, or Ernest Seton
Thompson, whatever his name is. or was,
has come forward with confession and
plea IN avoidance. so far as his share
in recently discussed nature-faking is
concerned. Mr.. Thompson-as ne shall
be called for the purposes Of this dis
cussion-evidently has felt the whack OF
the Presidential big stick, and deems is
cretion at this time by far the better part
Of valor.
In his stories Of Lobo and the Winni-
peg wolf, Mr.. Thompson told a number
Of Incidents as authentic that aroused
Mr.. RoOsevelts ridiculc literally mixed
with his ire. Indeed. Mr.. Thompson was
one Of the specific nature takers called
down by the President and by him re-

erstwhile authority, and says:

foxes. coyotes. and yellow dogs. weaving
them into one gigantic, syndicated, and

real, simon-pure article! And for this the
President-righteously and promptly
called him down,
The truth OF the matter is, Mr.. Roose-
welt IS a close and careful observer of
the habits Of animals, large and small.
His latest article in Scribners. Small

particularly discriminating kind. and
is marked by an accuracy of detail that
must force admiration, even from the
most unwilling. No one can read that
article and believe that the President IS

kind He knows what he is talking

Of this that leads Mr Thompson to the

suggests 10 the ambitious officers the

Responsibility for Stock Losses.


President Roosevelt compressed into
his keokuk speech the substance OF sew
eral former utterances. reiteraung his
familiar attitude on the subject Of rail-
road control, reaffirming his purpose to
punish wrong-doers OF high and low de-
gree, speaking a word for more techni-
cal and less literary training in secon-
dairy schools, giving a passing glance at
the need Of better waterways. and ad-
dressing some good advice to the West
ern cattlemen respecting the leasing Of
ranges for the common good. II was not
Z long address, but 1t covered more
ground than most of the Presidents
speeches. Those who heard il got a great
deal Of ROOseveltian creed in a short
space, though little that was novel.
Mt Roosevelt took cognizance, as he
did in his Provlncetown address. of the
appeals that have been coming 10 him
for a modification Of his corporation pol
Icy. He does not, of course. admit that
his action is wholly responsible for any
business troubles that may have occurred
Of late, but thinks it may have been a
conTibutory cause. II so. il is unfOrtu-
nate, but Inevitable. In any reform
movement affecting business, the inno-
cent are apt 20 suffer with the guilty.
and this. in MI. ROOsevelrs judgment
is not the fault Of the reformers, but Of
those 10 whose deceptive action the in
nocent owe their false position. The
President evidently had in mind invest
ors in the stocks Of corporations whose
shares have fallen in value as a result
OF exposures Of iniquitous finance. He
might have quoted an instance pat 10
his purpose in the downfall Of the street
railway merger Of New York City. as a
consequence Of an inquiry into its az
fairs, which developed the most astound-
ing rascality. The shares OF this inflated
concern were boosted 10 269. and then un-
loaded on the public. To-day. two Of
the affiliated corporations are in the
hands Of receivers. and the same shares
are quoted at IS. There must be many
innocent victims Of the fall in the price
Of these shares; but who is 10 blame for
their losses. the public authorities. who
are seeking 10 uncover corruption with
view to punishing it and preventing il
IN the future, or the financial jugglers
who manipulated the stocks and plum
dered the public?
While such exposures as those now
going or in New York continue legiti-
mate enterprises viii suffer more or less
from the failure OF public confidence
But the work Of cleaning up was a nee
essary one, and, ultimately, il will prove
beneficial and stimulating. Mr Roosevelt,

that his course has done enough damage
