people, arc non productive and have

turc.
"Thc Times has permitted Mr..
Syromiatnikoff to tell the American
people Of the Great Russian dcmoc-
racy, with the Gar as defender of
the poor, ignorant and weak, against
the rich and powerful -and-'that
Russia is a peaceful and righteous
democracy The Times has per-
mitted Mr.. Syromiatnil<off to pre-
sent Russia as political and social
paradise where justice and right
prevail, and to defend CARBON in
all its phases. The New York
Times has permitted the arch-enemy
of the Jews to deny the Russian
atrocities against them, though the
owner, Mr. Ochs, has ample evidence
that the statements Of Mr.. Syrom-
iatnikoff are lies.
"The editor of this paper, think
ing that the Times had acted in
good faith, approached it repeatedly
with view to publishing a true
statement of facts with regard to
the position of the Jews in Russia.
After Mr. Syromiatnikoff's cynical
letter to the editor Of the Times Of
May e, 1915, the editor of the
American Jewish Chronicle sent a
reply to the Times in which he re-
futed the statements of the Russian
press agent. In his reply he said,
among other things: The Russian
Government says to the Jew You
have the same duties as every other
Russian citizen; you must pay
taxes; and furthermore, you must
pay special Jewish taxes; you must
be lawabiding, and loyal to the
state; you must give your sons
to the army (and in larger pro-
portions than TIE rest of the popu-
lation), and you must sacrifice your
self for the state or to the will Of the
Court Camarilla and as a reward
the populace is at liberty to honor
you with pogroms-and in case you
defend yourself the soldier is called
upon to protect the mob. You
have no right to develope the intel
lcct, but are forced to fall back into
barbarity and ignorance, and you

have no right to live anywhere in
Russia, but are condemned to spend
your life in Ghetto, to be the prey
of the Russian Tshinovnik with his
lust for bribery
"This reply to Mr.. Syromiatni-
koff's allegations was never pub
Hshed in the Times and we know
for fact that many other Jewish
journalists and public workers also
addressed letters to the Times re-
futing the statements of Syroniat-
nikoff and that these replies were
not published either. The writer
was at that time told by one of the
editors of the Times that nothing
against Syromiatnikoff would be
published in that paper.
"This being the case it is no won
der that the New York Times did
not publish Louis Marshalls letter
against the raising Of Russian loan
in this country. The New York
Times we record with deep re-
gret-is defending the Russian re-
gime not only at the expense of the
Russian people, but also at the ex-
pcnse Of the Jewish people.
"Whether the sympathy of the
New York Times with the Russian
regime, which is a system of in
fanny and crime, is genuine or not,
and whether it is actuated by sin
ccre convictions or not, we do not
know. But this we do know: the
future chronicler when enumerating
the hostile forces which worked
against the Jewish people during
this crisis will not ignore the New
York Times, the owner of which is
a Jew"
And yet, why gore Mr.. Ochs?
While he is the nominal owner, or
publisher, or editor of the New York
Times, who knows who really owns
and controls that paper? May we
not, in palliation Of his wrongdoing
to his people, apply to him Isaiah

The Fiction Of Jewish Control of the Press
BY DR.. S. N. Deinard.

/%$<%&\%%%\$%N>\%%%%$%< ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
Those whose morbid imagination
secs the entire world in the control
and grasp of the Jews never fail to
point at the press as evidence of the
Jews all-pervasive influence. The
press Of the civilized world is Jewish
or Judaized. Only the other day
"The Monitor,' leading Catholic
journal in pointing out the contrast
between Jewish strength and pluck
and Catholic weakness and apathy
in this country said among other
things: "The newspapers, more
over, which are owned by Jews, or
controlled by Jewish capital, yield
their influence to the cause of their
country men, etc.
AS a sad commentary on the above
we herewith reprint an article from
1.-THE American Jewish Chronicle"
"A few weeks ago, Louis Mar
shall sent letter to the press in
which he pointed out why he, as a
Jew and an American, could not par
ticipate in the proposed Russian
loan. Formally the letter was a
reply to a banker who had invited
Mr.. Marshall to participate in the
proposed Russian loan. Many pa
pers of the CITY of New York pub
lished the letter, but it was ex-
pressly rejected by the New York
Times, which is owned by a Ger
man Jew, Ado1ph Ochs. Many peo-
pie were surprised at the tactics en-
ployed by the Times, because
Adolph Ochs, the owner, is sup
posed to be a Jewish philanthropist
and man who has not completely
severed his connection with his CO.
religionists. But those who have
followed closely the attitude Of our
contemporary to the Russian Jewish
question during the war, will not
wonder at the Times ignoring Mar
shall's letter.
"The New York Times has re-
pcatedly opened it's columns to Mr.
Syromiatnikof, the Russian press
agent in this country, bitter anti
Semitic, who, while editing the Rus
sian anti-Semitic and reactionary
paper, Rossia, tried to justify the
disabilities of the Jews in Russia
by explaining that the Jews, as a

RIGHT TO
HOLD JOB
REVIEWED
Dem. Committee Question
Submitted to Supreme
Court Today

The right of Fred Mclean to con-
tinue in the office of chairman of the
Democratic state central committee
was placed before the state supreme
court at Bismarck this morning, when
arguments in the suit launched by D.
H. Macarthur, Democratic candidate
for governor, were made by opposing
counsel. The action also affects j.
Kelly Of Devils Lake, treasurer; and
H. L. Halvorson, Minot. secretary of
the committee. Ft" M# ...
That a state central committee. an
elective body, Is without authority to
delegate positions to outsiders, Is the
plea on which McArthur's suit Is
based. An Oregon supreme court
decision in line with that argument,
Is cited in substantiation-and Ore
gon's law is identical with that Of
North Dakota.
For the defense, 1t Is argued that
the two national committees have
elected non-members to the chairman
ships-that the Republican state CEN
trail committee OF this state has taken
like action. 1t Is contended that the
election Of a chairman is an act not
affecting the interests Of the public
at large.
Tracy r. Bangs Of Grand Forks and
Halvor Halvorson of Minot, counsel
for the defendant officers of the COM
mittee, and Judge Edward Engerud,
Fargo, counsel for the plaintiff. left
Fargo last evening to present argu-
ments.
The court will probably make an
early decision.
