JERUSALEM, Nov. E7.-The dream
of Zionists, the restoration of Israel as

whatever the outcome of the agitation,
one thins is certain-Zionism Is e.

countless centuries has laid dormant.
The rose of Sharon, which for ages has
been wilteI and withered, is blossom

The vine and fig tree of which the
Bible speaks, but which, in h recol-
lection of many generations have only
been a memory. are again a living
reality. There are orchards of olive,
orange and lemon trees and miles of
vineyards.

also being laid out near Jerusalem.
And all this was made possible by
the Jewish national fund, collected
by Zionist organizations.
This FUND has accomplished wonders,
among them being the following:
Where the Jordan flows into the
sea of Liberals the national fund owns
5000 dunam of fertile land. On this
property the Palestine Land Develop
ment Company is conducting a model
farm where Jewish laborers find m
ployment.
The fund owns property along the
Jerusalem and Jaffa railway, upon
which olive trees are planted. This is
called the Herzwald-the Herzl forest.
It's cultivation gives a large number or
men work and the profits 20 to main
tain a number of educational institu-
tons.
This same organization has estab-
lished a large orchard known as Gan
Samuel, which yields heavy crops OF
oranges, lemons and citrons.
In another part of Palestine the fund
conducts a workingman's colony in the
form of a cooperative settlement as
outlined by the famous ~sociologist. DR..
Franz Oppenheimer, of Berlin.
In Jerusalem the national fund owns
the already celebrated Zezalel School
of Arts and Crafts, which has opened
new sources of livelihood for hundreds
of Jerusalem Jews.
The fund has lately contributed l00,-
900 francs for the purchase of the
necessary land for the Jewish institute
of technology at Haifa.

Advocates of the initiative and refer
endum are seeking adoption of the syS
TEN by the present Legislature. The
initiative and referendum and recall is
the product of democracy gone mad.
1t is socialistic in origin and crazy in
theory. cts adoption would prevent the
electorate from acting with that full in,
formation necessary TO the exercise of a
sound judgment and discretion; it would
cut off all the right of the minority to be
heard, and permit the mere numerical
majority 10 impose their ill-considered
views upon the whole people, regard
less of their interests and welfare; it
would carry the mere counting of noses
TO such extreme and abused limits as to
make democracy and representative
government tyrannical, oppressive and
odiouS. To levy a tax or enact a law
by initiative petition and referendum,
with each voter expressing his opinion
in isolation, and without a legislative
assembly at which the opponents of the
measure can be heard and their objec.
tionS and arguments considered, and the
amendments and notifications Of both
friends and foes passed upon, would
prove destructive OF democratic form
of government"

Temperance Union or allied societies,
but all the same he has fathered semi
prohibition bill that should pass the

makes the selling of liquor without a
license a felony and fixes the penalty
at not less than six months in the peni-

a blow at "blind tigers" and would end
the temptation of certain over.zealous

The meeting of editors comprising the

was one of the most enjoyable gather.
ings of fraternal nature ever INDUCED

not all thought alike on public questions,
and sometimes there have been inter.
changes of words that hit the FACILITATING

tlnce blows. But it was only sound.
Together, the editors fraternized and
were mutually helpful, and as they
looked into the eyes and grasped the
hands of antagonists in former intellec-

in the innermost recesses of the soul OF

'vaunteth not itself, is not pulled up,
doth not behave itself unSeemly, Seeketh
not her own, is not easily provoked,
thinketh no evil; rejoiceth not in iniqui-
ty, but rejoiceth in the truth" They
are not perfect, far from it, but that they
are striving after better conditions is
evidenced by the fact that many of
them might be making more vulgar

Wednesday afternoon in the Dyal-Up-

of Mariana, for the office OF Governor
in the primaries 10 be held next year.
Although there was no funeral in con-

in the last which was held here by the
same faction, ii is significant coinci-
dence that il was Memorial Day and the
city was paying tribute to the dead
braves of the Civil War. The caucus
was attended by many members of the
faction from different sections of the
state. Among them were Harry Bethel
and Jules Solomon, of Tallahassee. "
Fortunately this caucus has no binding

they will be permitted to meet in prim-
