OF Hebrews to Palestine.
Letters from Jerusalem say that the
proclamation of the constitution in
Turkey has thrown open the doors OF

from all parts of the world In Jeru-
salem alone four-fifths of the popula-
ton of 100000 now belong to the He
brew, faith. while at Jaffa, Tiberias.
Safed. and Haifa Hebrews are reck-
Ioned by the tens of thousands.
Almost the whole extensive plain OF
Esdraelon has been bought up by
them. Their prosperous colonies
spread from Dan to Beersheba, and
even farther south to the outskirts OF
Egypt. Thousands are escaping from
Persia to find shelter and protection

them.
The Valley OF the Jordan, once the
property of the ex-Ssrltan Abdul
Hamid. is being eagerly sough. after
by Hebrew capitalists and syndicates
of Zionists, whose agents, distributed
all owe. the land, are buying up rich
properties OF Mohammedan offenders
whose incomes since the revolution
are considerably lessened.
The Holy City is essentially Jew
ish town. Banking as well as trade
and commerce, is monopolized by the
Jews. The government has found II
necessary to organize a company OF
Jewish gendarmes. Hundreds Of
thousands OF pounds are sent snnu-
ally from Europe and America to
enable the coicnists to build homes,
hospitals. schools. and invalid homes
Ove. 100 Jewish schools already ex-
ist in Jerusalem alone. and syna-
gcgues are going up everywhere.
The value OF land has risen four
fold. The ignorant and poverty
stricken feliaheen are being ousted
from their homes and villages by the
sharp European Hebrew settler, whose
modern agricultural implements and
methods have made the land produce
harvests never before dreamed OF BY
the natives. The angio-Palentine

Liberals Wealth Her Peril.

Liberals insecurity as sovereign
state is due to her own inability to de-
velop her resources, and to envy of her
latent wealth harbored by powerful
neighbors. All serious troubles that
jeopardize her existence are caused by
trade relations.
Her territory is the richest spot on
the west African coast. 1t presents a
most inviting field for American capital
and commerce. All sorts of tropical
produce may be raised on her fertile
soil with trifling expenditure of labor and
cash.
THE exports of Liberia are the small
est part of what the country can offer
for foreign markets. This is largely
because Of the difficulties of transporta-
ton both from the interior to ports of
call, and also from her coast cities to
the foreign markets.
Freight rates are greater to and from
Liberia than to places farther down the
African coast. The charge to remove
my effects from Monrovia was as much
as IT would have been from Accra and
Second, on the English gold coast, a
three-day journey from the Liberian cap
itaI.
Another cause for Liberals small for
eign trade is the peculiar methods
which hamper it's expansion. European
commission merchants control the entire
commerce Of Liberia. AS they have the
monopoly, they fix prices for what they
import into Liberia without regard to the
Liberians the agents pay what they
please without regard to the value IN
the markets where the commodities are tc
be sold.
