Spanish Cruelty to Jews
National Suicide Committed When
Jews Were Reduced to Slavery
and Ordered From Land
- By Rev. ThOs. B. Gregory

~ DIRTY FIVE years ago today the
Jews were permitted to return to
Il spain, the land in which their an
cestors had enjoyed, under Arab rule,
a glorious period of literary and social
activity but from which they nao Deen
banished in the year 1892.
History tells US Of few more shame
fr1 things than that Punishment Of the
Jews by Isabella In three snort
months all the uncOnverted Jews were
obliged, under penalty OF deatn' 70
abandon Spanish soil They were per-
mitted to dispose of their property, nut
were forbidden to carry either gold or
silver away, a ruling which practically
robbed them of all that they mad. Mul-
tiuudes were plundered Of all that they
possessed. and then reduced to slavery
Thousands died Of famine or plague,
and thousands more were murdered IN
cold blood. Weak women, driven from
luxurious homes; children, Wrenched
from their mothers arms; the aged, the
sick. the infirm, persisted in droves-
Reduced to Slavery.
When, at last, childless and broken
hearted, those who had been spared,
sought to leave the kingdom, they
found that the ships had been purpOsely
detained and that there was nothing
before them but slavery or apostacy.
And who were the people that were
thus brutally treated by the Spanish
authOrities2 They were the intellect
Of the great historian lecky: while
those around them were grovelling in
the darkness of besOtted ignorance, the
Jews were pursuing the path Of knowl-
edge. amassiug learning and stimulat-
ing progress. They were the most
skillful physicians, the ablest financiers
the most profound philosophers They
were the chief interpreters to Western
Europe of Arabian learning, but their
most important service was in sustain
ing commercial activity. For centuries
they were almost its only representa-
tives." They created the banking sys-
TEN; they invented the system Of ex-
change; in a word, they were the life
of the business world, not only in Spain,
but throughout the continent Of Europe.
It is no wonder that the iniquitous
transaction cost Spain her national
prosperity. She committed national
suicide when she expelled the Moors
and Jews.

terday was at no time heavy, being a
ten-mile breeze with steady pull.
The machine was set down in the
lowest gear as the water supply did
not warrant the heavier stroke.
A number OF orders are to be filed
during the summer on places outside
of this section 1t is shown that one
such mill will do the work OF many
old fashioned and smaller mills. 1t
looks like one of the many modern
methods OF bringing lands under ir-
rigation where electric power is not
available. and many such places are
to be found scattered throughout Ne
vada and California sections.
1t is understood that a mill is to be
erected along the line of the S. p.
where lands are being sold in Elko
and Humboldt Counties. When this
mill gets into motion the people out
that way will find that water can be
lifted in such quantities that it will
surprise the natives. Inquiries from
points north Of Reno are also at hand.
while southern Nevada is also on the

machine will do the work of dozen
men and do it better, as it is laid at
grade that is almost impossible by
hand work.
The question at the present time is
as to the size of the machine that is
necessary. Some of the work near
Fallon will require bitches seven feet
deep. In this case a heavier machine
than is usually needed will have to be
supplied. In all other sections where
tling is being laid the machines are
employed. 1t is shown that by this
modern system of laying and dredg
ing at the same time that much time
is saved and that there is practically
no hard work. The filling is done
by teams, making it possible to lay
several hundred yards of thing lin a
day. Under the hand practice a few
yards to the man is all that is pos
sible. The machine will be used
wherever tiling is sold, making it pos
sible to secure the best line of tiling
at the plant in this city and also ar
range for its installation at very low
price.
