JEWS REGAlNING
 LOST PALESTINE Practical Progress Made By Zionists In Recent
 Years
Jerusalem Essentially a Jewish Town With Four Fifths of the Population of that Faith.

London. Feb. 4.-Despatches from Jerusalem tell of remarkable strides made during the last few years in the proclamation of the constitution in Turkey threw open the doors of Pal estine and led to an enormous influx of Jewish colonists, who are already settled on some of the best lands of the country.
 In Jerusalem alone four-fifths of the population now belong to the Jewish faith. Large tracts of land around Lake Tiberias have been bought up from poor natives and converted into prosperous farms. The Plain of Shar- on, between Ja "a and Lydda, is one vast garden, owned and tended by Jewish skill and labor. The Hauran, one of the most fertile wheat districts in the world, is being sold to Jewish syndicates.
 Almost the whole of the extensive Plain of Esdraelon has been bought up by Jews. Their prosperous colonies spread from Dan to Beersheba, and even further south to the outskirts of Egypt. Thousands are escaping from Persia to find shelter and protection in the Holy Land, while every ship from Odessa carries some of them.
 
 of the ex-Sultan Abdul Hamid, is be- ing eagerly sought after by Jewish capitalists. The Zionists, whose agents are distributed all over the land, are buying up the rich properties of the Mohommedan effendis, whose incomes since the revolution have lessened.
 At Jaffa, Tiberias, Safed and Haifa (Mount CarmeD Jews are reckoned by tens of thousands. Towns like Ra- moth Gilead, Bethlehem, Nazareth and Gaza, where few years ago no Jew dared show his face, have now their Jewish quarters and synagogues!
 The whole city of Jerusalem is essen- tially Jewish town. Banking as we'll as trade and commerce is monopolized by Jews. The Government has found it necessary to organize a company of Jewish gendarmes. /
 Hundreds of thousands are annual ly sent from Europe and America to enable the colonists to build homes, hospitals, schools and invalid homes. Over one hundred Jewish schools al- ready exist in Jerusalem alone. Syn agogues are rising up everywhere.
 The value of the land has risen four-foId. The ignorant and poverty stricken faIaheen (peasants) are being busted from their homes and villages by the European Jew settler, whose modern agricultural implements and methods have made the land produce harvests never dreamed of by the na- tives The Anglo-Palestine Company. a Zionist banking and commercial en- terprise, is pushing the cause of Isreal, with energy.

THE WORTH OF A BOY
(Hartford Times.)

What is the life of an industrious boy of IA years worth? A jury in the Fairfield county superior court at Bridgeport assessed it's value at $500; Judge George w. Wheeler said the amount is inadequate and consequent ly he set the award aside.
 It's an interesting question and we are sure that the view of the judge rather than that of the jury will com mand public approval Charles D. McCann, a IA year old youngster, while delivering papers was run down and killed by an automobile. The administrator brought a damage suit of the boy was fixed on the defen- dant, the jury limited it's award of damages to S300 Judge Wheeler told the twelve good men and true that the amount was inadequate and he sent them back to think the matter over again. They stuck to their or iginal figure, and the judge then set contrary to the evidence.
 The value of the life of a boy can't be definitely determined, but a IA year old boy who is intelligent and amitious and who has mastred the trick of industriousness is certainly worth good deal more than $3OO His possible economic value is great. Soon after If he begins to be a pro- ducer and from that time forth his earning capacity should steadily in- crease. The old theory used to be that a boy was worth $1,000. That may be a fair average, but some boys who have reached IA years and who have ] cen trained up in the way they should go have a value far in excess of s1,000. It costs a good deal to raise a boy until he is IA, and if he attains that age and has brains, sumption and good haljts, it is diff cult to rlace a limit on what he may he worth. Political econc mists may try to figure It out, put in the last analysis there's bound to be a variety of expert opinion.

Hard Fight With Coon.

Freed by a pair of dogs, Tuesday, west of Springdale. big raccoon gave Frank Sammis of Springdale a hard fight before it succumbed. It was a big fellow, about fourteen pounds in weight, and over four feet from nose to tail-tip. MT. Sammis' dog started the coon and it took refuge in the hollow trunk of a tree. Finally, he set steel trap in the bottom of the hollowed trunk. Then he climbed the tree, axe in hand. and drove the coon down to the bottom. The trap closed over one of it's legs but the 'coon kick ed free, ran up the trunk and out through the upper opening. crossing Mr. Sammis body in it's flight. Down the tree it scampered. The dogs chas- ed the coon, and it took refuge in sapling. MT. Sammis shook the sapl- ing and the coon dropped out. It landed on the back of MT. Samnnis neck, and bore him to the ground. Be- fore he could gain his feet, the 'coon's claws had scratched him severely on the back of the neck. Mr. Sammis had a stout club and, once on his feet he aimed a blow at the coon. The blow went wild, and the coon made a vici- ous snap 1t one of MT. Sammis's legs. It's teeth sank through his rubber boot and through the clothing and broke the flesh causing a slight wound. His next blow was more carefully aimed. It hit the coon on the snout, and tumbled it over It was easy enough to despatch it, then.

HAWLEY'S
 "DEMAGOGIC RULE
Sheriff May Be Renominat-
 ed-'tReal Crucial Period Will Be Election Day."
South Norwalk sentinel.)

The Sentinel has no fight on with Representative Bennett, but we would like to know how long since he has been in a position to give such an as- surance, if the position attributed to him by the Bridgeport paper is true, for the Republicans of the Town Of Norwalk? MT. Bennett has not been among us for so very many years, but surely his acquaintance has been of sufficient duration to allow him to realize that when our people take position for principle, a smoothing over dinner at the Algonquin Club with him as a party to it will not have the effect of changing their views.
 If MT. Bennett has surrendered the principle involved to his ambition to become state senator by making his peace with the HaWley machine, deS- bite his recent opposition to the sher- iff he speaks for Marcellus R. Ben nett, not for the people of the Town of Norwalk. It is well for MT. Bennett set
 When Sheriff Hawley so openly did his utmost to defeat Congressman E.. J. Hill for the United States senate, he could not but have known he cut deeply the whole host of Congress man Hills friends all over Fairfield county, who believed he had honestly WOIl lHS QIOllIOIlOl.
 At this time, while it appears that Sheriff Hawley's chances for being re- nominated at the shrievalty convention are good, sight should not be lost of the fact that the real crucial period for Sheriff Hawley if he gets the nom- ination, will be election day, when he goes before the people of Fairfield county for their suffrages. Then will he find that few dinners to political aspirants will not have proven the capable ammunition he counted it to be.
 It is unfortunate for MT. Bennett if he has Succumbed to the blandiSh- ment of the Hawley machine. Because men with political ambitions have not gotten in Sheriff Hawley's way for the nomination thus far does not as- sure the sheriff of his reelection.
 The Republicans of Fairfield county have long been ch f1ng under the rule of the Hawley boss-ship. He has build ed his Notifications well, but it is by no means unreasonable to expect that he will meet his Waterloo, the same as other politicians who, from long success, lose sight of what may be the result of unforgivable actions. The Republicans of Fairfield county have grown tired of feeling that whenev CT they want to do anything, they must go to the county court house and con- suit Sheriff Hawley. Sheriff Hawley's attitude in the Hill-Brandegee fight them to a full realization of their feel ings. Since then a calm consideration of the situation has inevitably led to the realization that it is high time to overthrow the demagogic rule of Sher- if HaWley

The Columbia Motor Car Co.,, of Hartford, which succeeded the Electric Vehicle Go. and thus came into pos session of the noted Selden and other automobile patents, is one of the com ponent parts of the U. S. Motor Car CoA. recently organized in New Jersey with a capital of $16000,000 and which is to be a holding and not an operat- ing company and to thus serve as the pivotal and controlling feature of the predicted great automobile combine. President Briscoe of the Maxwell Brixcoe Motor Co, which is also in the U. s. Motor Car combination, says:
 The patent situation in this indus try is most important and interest ing one. l had never thought much about this phase of the business until the decision of Judge Hough was rem dered declaring the Selden patent valid. This decision opened the eyes of lthe Maxwell-Briscoe Motor Com pany, as well as other independent motor car makers It cost the Max well -Briscoe Motor Company s15O. 900 to protect Maxwell dealers and owners to say nothing of the jeopardy to it's future business
 This woke me up, so to speak We immediately set our patent attorneys to work on thorough investigation with reference to automobile patents, and must confess that the result was a great surprise to the Maxwell com pany, for we found that most every important structural feature of the present day automobile was covered by patents more or less fundamental, so that our company, as well as oth- CTS, was in a hazardous position.
 Furthermore, 1t appeared, on inves- tigation, that the Columbia Motor Car Company had corner, so to speak, on practically all good automobile pat ents. I considered these patents such a menace to the security of our busi- ness that l immediately opened nego- tiaticns with the owners of the Co., lumbia company. and I found they were very confident as to the strength of their position They had invested large sums of money in this branch of their business under advice of good counsel and had purposed to use these patents as controlling factor in the automobile industry, having been awaiting the decision in the Selden patent litigation. It seemed to me that for the good of the Maxwell con- cern and the industry as a whole it was best to obtain the control of the patent situation by a company that would have mammoth facilities for manufacturing and distributing. and I advised ethe United States Motor Company to purchase the Columbia concern.
 If it be fact that the U. s. Motor Co. now holds. through the Columbia Co.,, control not only of the basic Sel- 5en patent but also of patents upon almost every important feature of the present day automobile", the new holding company possesses heavy

CURRENCY-INFFLATION-
 EXCESSIVE SPECULATION

In a lecture at Yale, Wednesday, Prof. Irving Fisher predicted the early coming of another business panic. He is also the author of an article in the Review of Reviews, in which he at tributes excessive speculation to cur rericy- imitation as the result of in creased production of gold. His pre- dict.on Of another business panic is based upon the depreciation of gold as a standard, and upon the excessive speculation following currency-infia- tion. and the remedy suggested by him is tc increase rates of interest in pro- portion to the currency increase.
 The U. s. Monetary Commission, of which Senator Aldrich is chairman, win probably urge a remedy of entire ly different character. viz, the crea- tion. of a great central bank, empowered to expand or contract the volume of currency as it's directors may decide that conditions demand. It could withdraw enough paper currency to offset the gold increase and, by this means. check excessive speculation without increase in the interest rates;
  ton to the danger point, by increas- ing the currency volume, or bring about a money panic akin to that of 1907 by over-contraction of the money.
 1t is now probably within the power of J. Pierpont Morgan who controls billions of cash and capital, to offset the currency imitation deprecated by rret,1 nd xr,I,i iob h0 ho his prediction of another business panic Whether MT. Morgan will do so or not, doubtless depends upon how currency-in imitation or currency contrac- tion would affect his interests and those of the mammoth corporations represented by him.
 Either a great central bank or MT. Morgan could work veal or woe to business interests in general, and pre- predicted by Prof. Fisher Such power is far too great to be held by a central bank or by an individual.
 The opinion of provincial paper upon such great questions possesses perhaps little value. and yet we can not refrain from expressing a belief that the currency-demand, coming from increased business and growing population. will easily keep pace with increased production of gold; that a great central bank, empowered to con- tract the currency at will, would be a grave danger; that J. Pierpont Nor gan is far too great a factor in the money market. and that Prof Fishers prediction will not be fulfilled, even though his remedy of higher interest rates should not be applied
