the role his Jewish subjects have

Italy has had a Jewish secretary Of

America, too, confers political distinc-

ut is an offensive social prejudice
against the Jew wherein America at
the present moment outstrips the
world. l venture to think this rests
far less upon Unborn dislike Of us than
gross ignorance of the qualities Of the
fly OF all Jews with gentiles any more
than l wish social equality Of all gem

Il want only that there shall be APP

purge Jewish society OF the undesirable

EDITOR STAR:-Some one on the
staff of the N. Y. Sun has been dis
turbed by the fact that the American
Unitarian Association offers to supply
those interested with tracts, and that
it keeps a standing advertisement in
the Brooklyn Eagle" to that effect.
In an editorial note attention was
called to the matter, with the state
ment that no doubt Dr. Edward Ever
EFT Hale would not approve of dis
seminating Unitarianism in this man.

tically replies:
Il thiught l had read my Sun even
more regularly than usual this sum-
mer, but a friend sends to me the en-
closed article, which had escaped my
attention, which has a reference to

share the views of my friends of the
Brooklyn Eagle regarding practical
missionary work. Indeed | suppose it
is only by an oversight that the Sun
expresses itself as 1t does. I have too
often profited by its practical mis-

as ravelation of its position. The
Unitarian Association was formed to
diffuse the knowledge and promote
the interests of pure Christianity

the Association have done very wisely

Christianity by the agency of the

think the realers of the Sun are very
glad, whenever it joins in such work.

carry out the great object of all
