NO DUM-DUM BULLETS.

dum-dum bullets and the like counter
charges against the Germans:

NO WAR WITH CATHOLICS.

Every Jew who has the interests
of the Jewish community at heart
will turn with disgust from the anti
Catholic movement which has been
revived in the city Of New York.
There is not single argument
which the anti-Catholic fanatics use
against the Roman Catholic Church
that could not be used against the
Jews.
That so many government offices
in the city and state of New York
are filled by Catholics. is due to the
fact that the American citizen,
whether Jew, Protestant or Catholic,
cares very little about the religious
belief Of candidates.; and it is best,
especially for us Jews, that in the
future the concern of voters about
the religious belief of candidates
should be as small as possible

man, numerous OF his friends impor-
tuned Mr.. Williams to become can
didate for Mayor in the present race,
and after due deliberation he decided
to announce himself on a platform
that is clear, concise, and logical.
First of all Mr. Williams says, 81
shall attempt to promise nothing that
will be inconsistent with my six
years. record in the City Council. 1t
is my first promise that whatever of
experience and ability may possess
will be devoted to reducing the tax
rate for City expense"
Further along Mr.. Williams says,
ut has been contended that the City
Council and the Boards create the
necessity for taxes, and that the May
or has little, if any, responsibility in
the matter. l insist that the Mayor
can have just as much responsibility
as he cares to assume. In some cases
it may be moral responsibility, but l
invite the people of Minneapolis to
place me in the Office of chief execu-
tive for the purpose of permitting me
to demonstrate just what can be done
in this connection, my ideas being
based upon observation and expert
ence and not being theoretical"
Among the most important ques-
tons confronting Minneapolis in
wolves the control and regulation of
public service corporations and Mr..
