one of French Jewish ancestry will
know that his fOrbears wore ring of
this sort, varying in size and in color
now red, now yellow and white, ac-
cOrding to the whims of municipali-
ties and monarchs. 1t was generally
worn upon the breast and at one time
it was ordered to be worn likewise
upon the back so that Jew might be
known "fOre and aft" When a Jew
was found without the badge he was
fined; and at one time, with refine
ment of insolence and greediness,
Jews were forced to pay for the privi
lege of degrading social isolation.
Evidence of the wearing of this badge
is found as late as 1892 in Francs.
The forefathers of the Spanish Jews
carried a yellow and red badge-the
men on their breasts, the women on
their foreheads. The wearing of the
badge was not so prevalent in Italy,
but the municipalities almost all re-
quired them. The badge was known
as the so" from it's shape, resembling
probably the ring in France. Eng
lish Jews should feel the distinction
of having had a peculiar sort of badge
forced upon their ancestors. 1t was
first in the form of band-first
white and then yellow; and later
Jews were required to wear badge
with the shape of the Tables of the
Law. In Germany yellow badges
were worn, but here the hat was the
chief means of Identification. In
Austria and Poland there are few
traces of the badge, but in Hungary
Jews wore badge on their left
breast. 1t is interesting to know that
in Crete, at the present day, some of
the houses of Jews are marked with
the 60"

Yes, little thing, but the whole Of

stitution or library is heralded
abroad, and the name of the liberal
benefactor of mankind is regarded
with sacred reverence, while the hun

Making the World Good by
Compulsion

There is one thing that reform
should pray to be saved from and that
is the crank and the bigot. Fanati-
cism always works harm, never good.
1t has brought incalculable injury to
the army by the abolition of the can
teen, which has been upheld, not only
by nearly all the high army officers.
but also by the mothers, wives and
daughters of the soldiers, who cer-
tainly have the morals and charac-
ters of the men of their own families
more at heart than have the meddlers
of the temperance organizations.
These latter 60 altogether on theory
without the experience needed to
guide those who undertake to arrange
matters of life in rational and prac-
teal manner.
There is no form of bigotry that
can excel that which seizes and con-
trolls those who fancy that it is their
mission to make the world good by
compulsion.

1t Might Have Been

Never morning came to evening
but some heart did break" Men
and women the world over ex-
perience the same feelings. 1t is
sad, but true fate of human
ity, that with every passing day
some heart-weak being passes out into
the darkness of the future, leaping
into its impenetrable uncertainty
rather than bear the ills of this life.
To such death is glad release. There
are others, however, who have no one
to blame for their sadness and misfor-
tune but themselves.
For of all sad words of tongue or pen,
The saddest are these, cit might have
been.''
When we pause and reflect for Il
moment upon the true and innermost
meaning of the four little words that
form the despairing wall of regret
over lost opportunities, unperformed
duty, unkept views, forgotten prom
ises, procrastination, and the neglect
that brings upon man the direst ca
lamities, we realize the true sentiment
of their import. Those words are
self-condemning and that fact adds to
their weight upon the soul.
cit might have BEEN" Oh, the
rivers of blood that track these words
on the road from earth to heaven!
The bleeding footprints of earth's
weary, disappointed, despairing sons
These simple words, so full of re-
morse, are, in most instances, but duty
unperformed. The hearts of men are
every day burdened with care, and
their pathway hedged about because
of lost opportunities or neglected du-
ties. New and important duties con-
front us with every day. Our peace
and comfort depend upon the man
ner in which we meet the obligations
devolving upon us. If we perform our
duty well, we will not have to say,

The Jewish Badge

TO the Jews of today it is fairly
well known that their ancestors in
Europe were forced to put up with a
great deal Of humiliation, besides per-
secution, and it is also known that one
of the means by which this humilia-
ton was brought about was through
the separation and distinction of the
Jewish citizens from all others. One
of the most insulting methods was to
require the wearing Of badge which
would stamp the wearer as an "infidel
jew" and it may be instructive to
Jews whose ancestors lived in various
parts of Europe to know what par
ticular sort of badge their forefathers
wore. The wearing of badge was
made general order throughout
Christendom in the year 1915, but it
must have been required in isolated
places before that date.
The most usual form Of badge was
that of ring of distinctive color at
tached TO the upper garment. Any

still poor bishop, was in need of 1O,-
600 lire. After having tried in vain
to get the money from several veal
thy Catholics in his diocese, he wrote
a letter to Jacur asking him to let him
have the money.
By return mail came letter con-
tanning check for 10000 lire, which
Jacur asked Plus to accept on the con-
dition that he would consider the s.
900 lire a present from friend and
pay back the remaining 5000 when
ever he should have that much money
on hand and at one time.
'But as I have never had 5000 in
my possession at one time l have never
been able to pay him back" the Pope
said with a smile
Pope Plus has repeatedly expressed
himself strongly in condemnation Of
anti-Semitic movements, which he
characterized as fraternal war (lotta
fratricida).

Settling Jews on California
Farms

There is a movement on foot to ex-
tend the activity of the Jewish Agri-
culturists' Aid Society of America in
promoting farming among our Jew
ish people, to the state of California,
especially to the southern part Of that
state. The success which Jews have
attained in farming in the Middle and
Northwest, augurs well for an under
taking which has for its purpose the
placing Of Jewish families on farms
in southern California. Here climate
and surroundings offer great advan-
tages to the novice farmer. Though
the land must be purchased instead
of homesteaded, as it can be in the
Northwest. yet after due cOnsidera-
ton and intelligent and correct fig
uring, it will be found that the out
lay in money for each family will be
no higher in California than what it
is in the Western states, while the ul
innate result of the undertaking, eco
nomically as well as socially and 9th
erwise will. in all probability, prove
more beneficial in California than
what it has proven in other parts of
the country.
The lands are to be divided into five
and ten-acre farms and sold to such
families as will be found capable of
bringing to a successful issue the un-
dertaking of establishing themselves
on farm homes. DR.. A. r. Levy, who
has achieved unequaled success in es-
tablishing Jews as farmers. and whose
experience of nearly twenty years
dealing with that subject places him
foremost among those who have de-
voted their lives to the promotion of
agricultural pursuits among Jews.
has consented to cooperate in the work
and will have charge of the Applica-
ton Bureau. Only the very best,
physically as well as mentally fitted
for the work will be selected to go on
the land which will be sold to actual
Jewish settlers at cost price with such
an additional amount as will be re-
quired for administrative expense.
The prospective farmers, after hav-
ing selected their respective lands. are
to be formed into clubs of from ten
to forty families to club. One out
of every five in the. club will be re-
moved to the farm at once. while the
other four will remain in the city un
til such time as their homes will be
prepared for them by those of their
members who have preceded them;
those remaining in the city to pay for
the work done for them and thus help
ing to maintain the people on the
farm for the first year. In this man.
ner it is hoped to have the whole
tracts settled within four to five years.

Railroad Park for WaIluIa.

The o. r. & N. is beautifying the
grounds at a number of stations on
It's systems and Wallula is one OF the
favored places. says the Gateway. Su-
perintendent Walsh was here one day
last week and instructed the section
foreman to clear up and level the
triangle north of the depot and pre-
pare 1t for seeding to blue grass and
clover.
The unsightly buildings are to be
removed, trees planted and the lot
beautlfled in many ways Perhaps d
small fountain may be installed. This
action has caused much speculation.
1t is expected that the big depot
building will be overhauled and paint
ed. It is just possible that North
Coast trains may use this depot. At
all events, people are guessing.
In this connection 1t is apropos to
state that e. X. Ross, who for SO
many years has had charge as agent
here, has reconsldered his plan to
resign. This will be good news for
patrons Of the o. r. G. N. for It would
be hard to find a man to take his
place who would give such general
satisfaction.

A SPEEDY AND
PERMANENT CURE

ave express TO you herewith our best
thanks for the cure OF our baby from
eczema. The eczema appeared when
the child was three months old. We
applied to several doctors and hospitals,
each OF which gave us something differ
ent every time, but nothing brought re-
Lief. A physician recommended salve
which we threw into the fire after two
days use as the eczema became worse
90 that the baby scratched his face. At
last, one OF our friends recommended TO
US Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Oint-
ment. A few days afterwards improve
ment could be noted. Since then we
have used nothing but Cuticura Soap
and Cuticura Ointment, and now the
baby is six months old and is quite cured.
All that we used was one cake OF Cuti-
cura Soap and two boxes Cuticura Oint-
ment, costing in all $l.25. Even the
poorest man can pay that instead Of
throwing it into the doctors lap. /
myself only make twelve dollars week
as a teamster, but / recommend the
Cuticura Remedies strongly TO all moth
ers whose children suffer from such dis
eases. They are cheap, harmless and
good. G. p. Kara and Wife, 343 East

not being received to pay a pastor.
The anti-saloon people of Pullman,
who are not members of the Congre-

to give Mr.. Healey II he was retained
as pastor, but even with this assist
ance the church subscription dropped
off until very little money was being
collected.

According to common report in
Washington. Senator Bourne is ex-
periencing considerable difficulty in
getting his Roosevelt press bureau
under way 1t is rumored that he
has been aided in this project by
Harry b. Needham, chief promoter
of the peoples lobby and a close
friend of the president. Mr.. Need
has was to have been editor-in-chief
and had general charge.
But report of Mr. Needham's ac-
tivity reached the president and he
is said to have expressed such surprise
and disgust that Mr.. Needham has
withdrawn, leaving Mr.. Bourne with
out an editor. Mr.. Needham deems
II more important to reserve friend
ly relations with the president than
to gain considerable glory In Mr..
Bourne's bureau.
Mr., Bourne is therefore still look
ing for a guiding spirit to direct his
latest enterprise. Several reputable
newspaper men have refused the job,
though it carries a salary of $50 per
week.

pledged to work for Roosevelt, first,
last and all the time, and similar
sentiments are expressed by delegates
from several other counties.
The republican state committee has
declared for Taft, and it is likely that
he will receive the Endorsement Of the

tion may arise as a result of the con-
flict between the Taft and Roosevelt
