TRULY ROYAL

Americans are prone to look upon
the kings and queens, emperors and
expresses OF European countries as
mere figureheads. Men and women
who have been reared in hot houses
and who think of themselves only,
without giving consideration to their
subjects, unless it be some Of those
who are next to the throne, and who
can be used, in perpetuating the des-
potism which they are wont to exer-
else. The bravery and devotion Of
The king and queen OF Italy in min
Gterlng to the wounded in the recent
earthquake proves that in some in
Stances at least this idea of royalty
is a mistaken one. No sooner had
the news OF the great disaster
reached the royal palace i'm Rome,
than the king set about to do all in
his power to relieve the suffering OF
those unfortunate subjects who had
been caught in the quake. In this
work he WAS Joined by the queen
an dtogether they went TO the de-
vastated district to work with their
hands as we'll as to contribute from
their purses. The spectacle OF the
king and queen ministering in the
most menial way to the relief of the
injured aud helping TO bury the dead
is evidence that the human heart
when left TO its own inclinaions,
beats in sympathy with those who
are In distress and that after all tie
peasant in the field is brother TO
the monarch in his palace True
royalty is that which has the best
Interests of it's poorest subjects close
at heart.

pointment of Mr.. Knox as secretary
of state was determined upon this
was promptly announced. This made
the failure in Hitchcock's case sig
nificant and led to the queries. II
developed that there was hitch
From Mr.. TafCs vicinity came re.
ports that perhaps Mr. Hitchcock
might stay out of the cabinet and go
into business.
Two things seemed TO have hap
pened-the New York crowd had
landed with its knock on the presl-
ent-elect and landed ON Hitchcock
with the offer of a good job. The
last is certain. If he win resign hds
cabinet pretensions hlr. Hitchcock
can draw $4,000 a year in a congen-
lal occupation, not yet specified.
Meanwhile the president-elect has
come TO attach paramount tmport-
amce to that resignation as national
chairman IL Mr.. Hitchcock is TO be
postmaster general. With Hithcock
ON the pay rcll the business world
would not fear amy political inal1-
ence he might exert as national Re
publican chairman and he could keep
that honor and welcome.
Behtmd all this is the circumstance
becoming daily more apparent that
something like an entente cordiale Is
coming between the heads of the
business, financial and industrial
word and the president-elect. This
does not mean that Judge Taft has
taken all the predatory rich male
factors" to his bosom or turned
traitor to the Roosevelt policies.
The situation Is exactly illustrated
by story credited to MIR. Taft ham-
self, which he probably did not tell.

patriots could be mentioned who took
sides with the Jews from time to
time, moved by their feelings for man
kind, whose names have become a
treasure hidden in the deep recesses
of the hearts of the Jews.
Passing these pages and coming to
more modern times. we find that af
ter wandering from place to place,
after trials and tribulations, after the
splitting of rivers of blood, after the
making orphans of thousands of chill
dren, the Jews in lands of oppression
took courage enough to attempt the
resistance of further repetition Of such
outrages But the Jews in Russia and
in Romania and in France were pow
erless to act, weighed down so heav-
lily by the great, unwarranted and I'M
just prejudice of the populace.
AS the curtain was about to fall on
the close of the nineteenth century,
upon a most pleasing scene, when pre-
judice seemed no longer to enslave
the mind nor blind the eye in most
countries; a century which gave to
the world more advancement, more
love for humanity, more sympathy for
fellow-man than any previous, when
been blotted from the hearts of man, in
France occurred the famous DreytuS
case.
AT this time appeared upon the
scene in defense of his people in de-
tiance to the open anti-Semitic feel
ing. a man not afraid to speak his SEN
timent loud enough for the world to
hear: a man with convictions and
courage to express his convictions,
and with the pen, mightier than the
sword, he wrote his 'Judenstaat. L
refer to the iliustrious Theodore
Herzl. who moved the world with SYM
pathy for the Jew. Little did this
noble example of Jewish aristocracy
seek fame. but awoke the next morn
ing and found himself famous. In the
following year there were hundreds
to take up the cause suggested by
him, to organize the Zionist move
ment, in short to obtain a legally Sc
cured and politically recognized nome
for the Jews. and in 1896 this move
ment was inaugurated, and IN 1891
took place the first Jewish congress
held since the dispersion OF the Jews
from their own land. Theodore Herzl,
undaunted by fear carried his CON
victions direct to the powers or the
earth, and had he lived he would
have seen his hopes realized many
wears before their realization.
But apparently unfortunate for the
movement. he was called before his
Judge in the very prime of his life,
Mourning and lamentation was heard
On every side. That was dark day
for the Zionists, dark day for the
prosecuted Jews, who began 10 look
upon Herzl as Prophet, but Heaven
often wells it's most provident mercy
in what to man seems it's sternest In
