Letter From Rev. Mr.. Clough
Huntington Beach, Cal.
Sept. /, 1910.
Dear Journal:

Dear Journal:
1t has been a long time since |
have taxed your space or time. The
Journal is like a letter from home
with its messages of joy aud sad
ness, its notes of changes and of
things new and old, not so very
strange to those of you nearby, but
freighsed with interest to those far
away whose hearts do not willingly
let go either old scenes or, more
precious still, the friends of former
days to whom the weekly budget
makes an appeal because of the ap-
parent great number of changes.
The first thing that many of US
look for in the dailies is the weather
report-how hot, how cold, or how
wet or how dry. This is most re-
markable summer at the Beach,
neither too hot nor too cool, but
Just charming, liva5le weather, the
only drawback being that when the
weather is intensely hot inland we
have strong wind from the west
from off the Pacific which is much
like a western zephyr, but always
goes down with the sun. Of course
there is no rain from about the first
of April and the dust is deep and
plenty and fine and then finer still
and does not appeal to fastidious
ladies as they ride in the country.
But California is alert on the matter
of good roads and SO thel center of
many of the roads is oiled, which
laws the dust but is much disliked
by the horses because of the rubber
like floor that it gives them to travel

on. In time this whole country will
have a complete system of good
roads.
The crops are excellent all over
this section. The winter barley
grown for hay or feed was heavy
and hay is abundant and not very
expensive. More and more alfalfa
is raised, which they cut more green
than in the west, and about eight
times a year where there is plenty
of water for irrigation. The great
crop now is sugar beets, of which
Orange county has more than IA ,OOO
acres, the bulk of which is between
here and Santa Ana, where there is
sugar factory, another at Los Al
amatos and third being prepared
for at Anaheim, while thousands of
tons are shipped to Chino to the
Oxnard factory. This morning |
met their local agent and asked him
what were the facts concerning this
years yield. He replied that the
tops are not so large as last year
but the beets are better and sweeter.
Probably this county yield will be
nearly twenty tons per acre, which
he said would grade from Is to Is
per cent, bringing about $3.50 per
ton. Several men have about 275
acres each of that kind of beets, yet
some may not get more than ten
tons. One observes here the differ
ence between extensive and inten.
sive farming: the former not much
of a crop off great deal of land, the
latter a great crop off smaller
amount of land. The latter men
ride in touring cars and are bank
directors. | know of 40 acres that

OiIinq a Kansas Road.

Some time ago a mile of country
road south OF Sedan, Kan, was oiled
under the direction of the Sedan Com
mercial club. Fifty dollars was PAID
for this, and it was all raised by pub
lie subscription. The oil had to be
hauled 80 far that the cost of hauling
was almost equal to the price OF the
oil Nevertheless the total cost or
dragging the road and of soaking it III
oil was only $50.
The road was oiled in May and IL
yet iu almost as good condition as II
was when finished. 1t is well round

Another year, it's race has lun,
Another year its course begun
A year has gone, ne'er to r-turn,
For time has sealed it in his urn.
With Hope now beats the bosom high,
And Faucy's visions fill the eye;
She paints the picture in her hue,
And holds it ever to the view.
TIL aspiring youth beholds the seat,
He hopes to fill among the great;
Add reads the page where ready Fame,
Shall register his future name.
The son who tillS his fathers fields,
The hoe the maui and mattOck yields,
Hopes e'er another year has flown
To pillow the lands he'll call his own.
The youth by finer feelings wrought,
Delights in the enrapturing thought,
That ere the present year has run
He shall some damsel's heart have won;
And maidens hope, before It's fled
They will be WOO -perchance may wed.
A year has gone-look back-be wise,
And from the view turn not your eyes;
For in the past there is page,
Where all may read instruction sage.
The year that's flown, upon its car,
Hath turned that mighty tide of war;
And crushed beneath its wheels of fate,
The hopes and fortunes of the great.
The year that's flown, alas hath made
The widow mourn for him that's laid
Beneath the clods, and left her cast
Upon the world, to stem the blast.
The year that's flown, its course began
In fortunes beams-but ere twas ran
The sunshine fled-and clouds of care
Dark low red, and ended in despair.
Some think that ere this year has run
Their poverty will all be gone;
Some think they'll live on milk and honey,
In the blissful land of matrimony;
Others that they'll the favo: WOO
OF Fortune, and the People too,
And draw a prize; or for the State
Elected be to legislate,
Some think the year their cares will end,
And that their habits they will mend:
That some rich uncle will expire,
And leave them to his fortune heir
Or meet some lucky hit in life,
That will unload them of their wife:
That ev'ry grief will fit away
But all return with New Years Day..
The gone by year has traced its path,
Through dscord, and thro' Jackson wrath;
And loaded even to the brim
With politics, and Adams within.
Rarely a dav, but on the street.
Jackson and Adams clubs would meet
And there in hottest wrath contest,
Which was the worst, and which the best

Mistook John Adams for their text.

How our own favored States increase

And how the time will shortly come
When we'll not drink West India rum
Nor pay a tax to Brit sh ioom-

And who is dead and who is married
What has been lost and what was found.
And who was hung and who was drowned
How Billy Giles agan's in power,
And what's the varying price OF flour:
I've told you Of the empty pates
That's brawing bout the rights of States;
Who raging with the Tariff fever,
Have sworn the Union they would sever.
I've told of men and women mated,
OF some, by duels celebrated;
OF those with wickedness prepense
Who've drown'd themselves in self defence
And who in doctors shops were bred
To speed the living to the dead;
I've told how very, very few
Fer pays the printer half his due;
And how (you ev'ry one know welD
How jackson rose and Adams fell;
I've told you these and much beside
That's floated down time s rapid tide.
Now as have worn out my shoes
In carrying you the weekly news,
If you will prove your Carriers friend
He'll tell you yet Gf you'll attend
What Jacksor's Cabinet intend;
Whose place he'll fill with Felix Grundy;
/ Who'll cry sic transit gloria mundy.'
/ Farewell my friends, my strain must cease,
/ May all your paths be paths OF peace,
May Plenty fill your empty dishes,
Your Carrier most sincerely wishes.

JEWISH LAW UPHELD BY Gov
ERNMENT.

According to one Of our exchanges,
Simon RapOpart, a shOcchet OF Mlnot,
North Dakota, slew steer for a butch
er of that city, and after examining
it found it to be trefa and consequent
ly prohibited for consumption by the
Jewish law. The butcher being
Door man asked the shochet to find
some way to lift the prohibition, as he
is poor and has no means to pay for
the OK However, in this case, the pro
hibition stood. Mr.. Rapopart decided
that according to the Jewish law the
farmer from whom the OK was pur-
chased loses his pay because he sold
a sick animal knowing that 1t was
purchased for consumption by human
beings. However, the farmer brought
suit against the butcher and present
ed a physicians certificate to the ell
feet that the meat in question was per
fectly healthy. Mr.. Rapopart appealed
the case to the Bureau of Animal In
dustry at Washington, and after
thorough examination of the meat by
an officer of that institution 1t was
found full of tuberculosis and there
fore unfit for consumption and the
farmer lost his suit. So soon as TINS
decision became known in the city
many Christians became regular pat
rons of the Jewish butcher. Here the
Jewish law is upheld by the United
States Government jewish Rec-
ord.

NOTHING SUCCEEDS LIKE sUc-
CESS

CESS.
This is an old adage and proves
itself every once in while. very
striking example was witnessed this
week when the Y. M. G. A. trustees
called for $4,000 and raised 1000
the first day. the remaining $4,000
being raised the second day and not
even one-haif the people to be asked
were called upon.
Now, if we (the J, L. S. had a
few Wilson's, Rockwells, ETC., there
would be no trouble to raise enough
money to erect a building for the
Jewish Literary Society inside of three
days, but it seems that our wealthy
Jews would rather buy Injuries for
their own use than deprive themselves
of one single pleasure in order to bet
ter the eXistance of hundreds who can
not buy an education and training such
as can be obtained free through the
Jewish Literary Society which has a
right to ask the wealthy Jews for sus-
tenance.
1t should be considered most agree
able duty to help support such an or
ganization as the Jewish Literary So
ciety. This society has done more to
rring Jewish society on a higher level
than any other one factor among
Houston's Jewish people.
1t stands for all that is true pure
and noble
No good Jew can pass it up I'M
noticed. Every one must give his
mite. Jew and Christian alike are
bound to honor the principles for
which it stands sponsor.
All we ask of you is to consider
the good that is being done by some
of it's members who work day and
night for an end still undescernible
to many but plainly in sight to a few,
as clear as the sun in the sky on
cloudless summer day
Giving to the Jewish Literary So
ciety Building fund is not an ad-
vertising scheme. We don't promise
any monetary returns. but we will
promise to make good use of every
nickle donated and benefit the poor
and ignorant among us and fit them
to better earn living.
We will surround them with influ-
ences for good We will help them
to rise in their own esteem and the
esteem of their fellow man.
In short we will fit them for a bet
ter life.
We don't give them money to make
beggars of them. We instill into them
that reliance in self that by the help
of God lifts them to higher plane.
1t is strictly up to you to assist
in this good work and if no one has
asked you for a subscription, send
it in to S. j. Westheimer, treas
urer J. L. S. building fund. He will
send you a receipt. together with a
prayer for Gods blessing.

PROSECUTIONS IN ODESSA.

General TOlmatcheH continues 10
prosecute the Jews of Odessa. His
latest device is to raise the price of
Kosher meat, as the result of one OF
his orders, in connection with the
Jewish Hospital. All the hospitals in
the municipality of Odessa receive con-
tributions from the town. The Jewish
Hospital, however, is solely depend
ent for it's income on Jewish effort.
The Town Council even refuse to sup
ply the Jewish Hospital with water
free of charge, and is now demanding
payment for the past few years when
the institutions enjoyed the common
privileges of all hospitals in the NUM-
cipality. To meet extraordinary eX-
penditure General TOlmatcheff has Or
dered the Jewish Community to raise
the Kosher Meat Tax. He has also
appointed administrators and medical
men on whose anti-Semitism he can
rely, thereby strengthening his capac-
ity to persecute the Jews of Odessa
in all possible manner.
NO EXCUSE FOR PREJUDICE.
Commenting on some recent occur
rences in Atlanta (Ga.) the editor of
the "Daily Georgian and News" writes:
"ChristianS have no excuse for preJu-
dice The creed which they profess
commits them to the broadcast Catholic
ity of mind. The keynote of the evan
gelists- pith of the golden rule
and the very essence of the great COM
mission is human brotherhood. The
following of the meek and lowly Naz-
arene exhibits little love for the Mas
ter and little regard for the logic OF
consistency when he turns his back
upon one of Israelitish blood and re-
fuses to fellowship with him because,
forsooth, he is Jew You need go no
further back than the time of the Mac
cabees, but read the history OF this
people-and if it be not accounted
a thing of honor to come to Abraham S
stock it is a certainty not badge OF
odium Antismitism has never flour
ished in Atlanta, and whatever may be
the shortcomings of this city, an un-
generous hostility toward the chosen
seed is not included among the charges
in the bill of Indictment"
