A Palladium reporter called on John

state his Views Of the pending con.

Mr.. Rupe gave the following state
mont Of his views on that subject:
"You ask me for expression Of my

Of its adoption by vote Of the people.
THE change proposed by the pend

Fall Festival Makes Report;
Deficit OF 81, 923 is Shown

Immediately after the fall election
the canvass to raise the deficit OF the
FAN Festival which was reported es
$1.Sz3.Sz, by Secretary Will Keller. at
a meeting OF the executive committee
OF the festival last night, will be
made. BY personal solicitation and
by letters the business men of the
city will be asked for funds, as it is
held by the festival committee the
business men profited by the festival
and should pay for it.
Secretary Keller submitted his off,
cial report as follows:
To the Fall Festival Executive Com
mittee:
] herewith submit to you a finan-
cial statement of the receipts and ex-
penditures of the Fall Festival for
this year. This statement is in min
ute detail 50 that every item Of re-
ceipts and expenditures may be
known. II shows the total expense of
the festival to have been $l0,12681.
and the total receipts up to date to
be $S.06S.39. leaving deficit of
$2,O6O.42. There is now in bank
$393.42 with which to pay $2.45412
in outstanding accounts. We are as
sured that $1375O will be donated
to the festival thus leaving a final
deficit of $1.923.92 which the Fall
Festival Executive committee must
make up In some manner and at
once.
| No account is taken in the state
ment of the light, power and labor
furnished to the festival by the Mu.
nicipal and the Light. Heat and
Power plants. These items the two
companies agreed to donate in ad
vance and they did SO in a most gen
erous manner.
Bills that come in after this time
may slightly enlarge the deficit, blu,
not greatly.
Unfortunate Throughout.
Looking back to the festival weel
with the financial figures in hand i,
can now be seen that had not condi
lions over which the committee hat
no control been against the festiva
it would no doubt have been sell
| supporting. But to have been so the
hippodrome would have had to make
q good sized profit. Due to the rair
and the failure on the part of thu
hippodrome to arrive here in time
the venture proved q losing PROPOSE
ton to the extent Of $1,113.17.
On the Festival proper not enough
money was contributed by business
- - n,~
$5,773.15 was contributed in casl
to the festival by business men o
Richmond while the expense Of tn,
same outside Of the hippodrome wa
$7.125.94. 1t was estimated in ad
vance that the festival proper woul,
cost $7.125.00. This estimate was bu
IS cents too low. The finance com
mittee worked most faithfully an,
efficiently to raise the amount a
estimated. but the donations were In
sufficient.
Hippodrome Fails.
After 1t was known that the cas-
donations were insufficient 1t wa
hoped that the hippodrome woul
make enough money to cover. the d.
nciency, but instead in poured tn
uncomfortable conditions. and as
result the big deficiency.
Personally, believe the festivs
Ito be q splendid thing for Richmond
but I think 1t should be put on
different basis in the future. TIL

tries are now coming In fast and there

the December exhibition. An open
meeting Of the association will be held

attended by all poultry lovers In the
city.

ing nay for their efforts should not
be compelled to beg the business
men of Richmond for the money
with which to finance the festival.
for in many cases it was nothing short
OF begging. Most OF the business men
responded to the solicitations OF the
finance committee with fine spirit.
but a good number did not give in
proportion to the amount of benefit
they received. Having 10 force a
business man to give when he is real
ly benefited is not fair to the COM
mittee In charge of the festival.
Hereafter, In my opinion. the neces-
sary funds should be in hand. or a
bona fide guarantee thereof made
before dollar is spent in furthering
the festival plans.
Charge for Exhibits.
1t would be well, believe, If some
reasonable charge could be made for
the fine exhibits that are now given
absolutely free to the visiting pub
lic l think the business mer
should continue TO give. in the pro
portion that they are benefited In
making Richmond better city
while the profits from the festiva
ought to go toward festival property
such giving it more permanency.
believe there is feeling of sympa
thy and good will on the part OF the
public toward the fall festival. and
any effort made to raise the none,
think will be kindly received. M
man or body of men should alone b.
asked to subscribe to the deficit
there should be general Response
for there has been a general benefit

Statistics Show UseIessness.
Mr.. Bradford read statistics showing
the relative number OF deaths from small
pox IN vaccinated and unvaccinated per-
sons. and quoted famous specialists in
support Of his arguments. The local pest
house received some attention from Mr..
Bradford, who said that doctors. who
never have been vaccinated. go about
their duties there and as yet have never
contracted the disease.
After Mr.. Bradford's address forty men
and women pledged their names as char
ter members OF the society and elected
the officers named above. They will act
as a committee on constitution and by
laws. and will report at the next meeting
OF the society. to be held within two
weeks.
While no definite plans for the fight
against vaccination were adopted. several
suggestions were offered. One, to have
a test case as to the constitutionality OF
the compulsory law. was much favored,
and that plan may be adopted after the
organization IS perfected.
Another plan suggested was to have a
gigantic petition. favoring the repeal Of
the law, presented to the District COM
mittees IN Congress.

DR.. Rubin Brainin. Hebrew orator and
author, eIoquently praised America and
its freedom In an address TO the Above
sholem Congregation. Fifth and I streets.
last night He declared the United
States is the one nation on the globe
which gives religious and personal free
dom TO Jews.
Representatives Goldfogle and SABBATH,
Simon Wolf, and Rev. Dr. A. Simon
compared the lot Of the American Jew
with conditions in Europe.
Addresses in YIddish.
With the exception of Representative
GoldfogIe, who is from New York City,
all OF the speakers spoke In Yiddish. The
synagogue was crowded. and there were
frequent ripples of applause. especially
when one OF those on the platform as
sailed Russia for persecution OF the Jews.
Dr. Bralnin told the story OF Jewish
misfortunes throughout Europe and part
Of Asia. graphically following the mis-
fortunes OF the children OF Israel in
their gallant fight 70 overcome unjust
taxation and religious antagonism. He
said America has been like the promised
land TO the race OF Moses, with the milk
and honey of kindness and tolerant free
dom. In return. he asserted, Jews have
been good citizens and a credit to the
communities that have welcomed them.
Prejudice and racial misunderstanding,
DR.. Brainin asserted. are rapidly giving
place TO mutual admiration between the
Jews and Gentiies Of America.
Jews Are Home Builders.
Representative Goldfogle said Jews are
by instinct and inclination home builders
and men and women of peace and in
dustry Fanatics who want more stringent
immigration laws. he declared, are I'M
charitable.
They say America opens wide her
gates 10 strangers" he said, and that
she is an asylum for the oppressed. But
there are some who think the time has
come when the open door should be
forever closed. They think America
should in the future be for Americans.
Il hope there Is no Jew so narrow so
wanting In charity, that because he is
safe from the persecution Of Europe and
Asia, would shut the doors against those
who are still carrying the burden Of un-
told racial hatred and bitter persecution.
We Jews should fight for the open door
with every drop OF our heart blood and
every fiber Of our strength"
Representative sabath, OF Chicago, told
Of the fight In the immigration Commit

Every Number Treat.
The Saengers presented a programme
whose every number was distinct treat.
Every participant seemed imbued with
the idea to contribute his best to the sue
cess Of the concert and they succeeded
beyond expectations. Each number was
received with equal enthusiasm and ap-
pIause.
Prof. Henry Xander, musical director,
who arranged the programme, presented
as the first number Webers overture
from "Oberon." An orchestra OF thirty
five musicians did full justice to this
beautiful homework. and gave 1t perfect
interpretations In all its various moods
and sentiments.
The chorus, with Thomas z. Murray as
barytone soloist, sang ''Weihe des Liedes,"
by Baldamus. The sentiment Of dignity
underlying this opus was brought out
with fine effect, all parts being in sym
pathy with each other.
Arturo Tibaldi a violinist. Of London,
made his first appearance before a Wash

favor with his excellent rendition of the

mating appearance with a sweet voice of
the purest quality, fuilness, and strength
Her mezzo-sopFano solo of Bemberg's
aria, La Mort de Jeanne dare" was an
artistic triumph, the house bringing her
before the footlights four times. Before
retiring she was presented with a huge
basket of roses.
'Fruehlingslied, by Mendelssohn, was
sung by the chorus. after which Prof |
Xander presented his own "Du bist vie |

artistic effect. He again encored, and
was followed by Miss ormond. who sang
