THE "ones" and "twos" of old "greenback" days in the United States, are said to be coming back. The bills were all right in their time and they should be all right at. any time. The reason for their return is a shortage of notes of small denorIi- nation. Naturally people who once knew them will wonder if they will ever again see the "shinplasters. that is, the paper fractional currency that took the place of silver, from the early sixties to the early seveL tics. They were very convenient. though somewhat bulky, but it cannot he said that they were always clear. Indeed many diseases were traced to the di- rect handling of this paper money With its billions of microbes. White silver money is heavy and gold is quite scarce, they are much prefer able to the paper money of the last century.

Looking 1t Up.

He was that type of genteel beggav that puts up front" as the fellows say. His face had more tears in il than cemetery, and he was just get ting ready to tell his down and outer's tale when the man at the desk reached into a drawer and brought forth die tionary, placing it in front of the ap- pealing one.
 What dOVOu want-sympathy?' the man at the desk asked.
 Yes, sympathy" was the half sob bed reply.
 Look in S for it. saw it there the other day"
 The sympathy chaser grunted and headed for the door. He wasn't look. ing for work, just sympathy-in the form of a piece of loose change.-In. dianapolis News.

SHERMAN L. WHIPPLE, the Bo.

SHERMAN l.. WHIPPLE, the Bos- ton lawyer, who has been appointed counsel in the "leak" investigation is a native of New Hampshire, who was graduated from Yale University in 1881. Three years later fe was admitted to the bar and set up prac- tice in Manchester, N. H. But in 1885 he arrived in Boston and set out to win fame and fortune there and has done so, being rated ore Of the ablest trial lawyers in that city. He is Democrat who at times has been the choice of his party for high of fee. His utterances with respect to the defective workings of the judicial system of the country and his views on other public questions reveal a progressive, even somewhat radical 'binker.

4 POSER FOR THE JUDGE.
The Way the Aceosed Put the csss Up
 to the Court.

The Way the Aecueed Put the Cass up
 to the Court. n. Writing of Polish Temperament and talent. Sidney Whitman in Things Remember has an amusing story of . bright Polish Jew who traded in chemicals. He was brought before the law courts for selling poison without fulfilling the legal enactments bearing on such transactions.
 The magistrate proceeded to read out the charge when the Jew sudden ly interrupted him with the question: Excuse me, Mir. President. Do you understand anything about chemi cals?'
 ''Mr. S., the expert, is here in that capacity" replied the judge.
 And you, Mir. s." queried the Jew, do you understand anything about law?
 You have just heard from his worship that I am an expert in chem icals. If you want to know anything about law please address yourself to the judge.'
 T ask you, Mir. President, just to consider the case for one moment. You are the judge of the court and ad. init that you do not understand any. thing about chemicals. and the expert tells us that he does not know any thing about law. And I, a poor Jew, am expected to be familiar both with the law and with chemicals. Now. Mir. President, I ask you how you can possibly convict me?'

The municipality of Kiev has CO.
opted five Jews. Very cordial
greetings were exchanged between
the leaders of the municipality and
M. Frumin, the spokesman of the
new Jewish members.
The peasants in the village Ca
ponov, near Minsk, elected the Jew,
Krivoshen, as their head (Starsh-
ina). This is the first instance OF
it's kind in Russia.

Karaites Seek Union With Jews.

Karaites Seek Union With Jews.
A conference of the Karaites,
held in Eupatria, Crimea, decided
to enter in much closer relation
ship with the rabbinic Jews OF
Russia. 1t was also decided to re-
move the present Hacham, M.
Shapsal, who was in close touch
with the reactionary government.
The Karaites enjoyed under the
old regime many more privileges
than the Jews. They had no con-
nection with the Jews, apparent
ly because they were afraid that
their position might be jeopardized
thereby. This fear is now dis
sipated after the Jews also enjoy
equal rights with the rest of the
population.

reorganization as result of the
coming convention and that many
theories will become accomplished
facts. Many changes, too, will
have to be adopted in order to
make facts square with theories.
To begin with, the intention of
purchasing Palestine from Turkey
will have to be utterly abandoned.
So also the plan of establishing
Jewish state under the suzerainty
of the Turkish governments plan
which was at one time thought
feasible and advisable, but which
is now unthinkable-will have to
be given up and, in it's stead, that
of obtaining the country from the
victorious allied powers and the
establishment Of the new state as
a protectorate of either England
or the United States will have to
be made a part of the Zionist pol
icy and platform. The question of
method will also have to be care
fully considered, and the measures
for agitation and propaganda
which have heretofore been car
ried on with vigor and earnest
ness will now have to give way
to more practical efforts for the
Iox1o1ovoy,oont Of tho ont on OnoOl1c
Jewish state, which, it is hoped,
will soon be established in Pales-
tine, so as to insure the free and
full development of a distinctive
Jewish culture in the newly-estab-
lished Jewish center.
From all indications, it seems
safe to predict that the Zionist
gathering in Baltimore will, in
keeping with it's Importance, be the
largest in the history of the move
ment. But it will probably sur
pass all other gatherings of Zion
lists in this country, not only as
regards the quantity, but also as
regards the quality Of the dele
gates present, for the time does not
seem far distant when to be III
onist and to attend Zionist gath
ering will be regarded as the tru-
est and surest sign of Jewish
aristocracy.-Dr. M. SLIDER, in
Jewish Ledger.

The Only Jew in the British Cabinet.
for works in the cabinet Of Lloyd
George, is the only Jewish member
of the present ministry and IN an
interview last week declared that
the news of the last week, both
from Russia and Palestine points
to the opening of new era for
the Jewish race.
"In Russia" he explained, 1.-The
revolution brings the promise OF
complete political emancipation; in
Palestine, the British advance in
dicates in the near future the reall-
zation of some modified form OF a
national ideal which most Jews
have held dear for centuries"

.G|LbERT GIVES FAREWELL


Gilbert people gave their soldier
boys a fine reception the Sunday be-
fore the young men departed fol, the
training camp. Not only did the en-
tire fcommunity turn out, but num-
Der from Orofino drove up and Joined
in giving the young men a most sin
cere farewell, a most convincing evil
dence that the home folks appreciate
the sacrifice our boys are to make
for the nation and the world. Dr.
Reese and Ivan Cunningham, both OF
Gilbert, delivered addresses, and
are credited with making most ap-
propriate and feeling talks, driving
home with telling effect some reasons
why the United States is in the war,
and ought to be in it. DR.. Reese
said the United States should have
entered the struggle long before 1t
did, and that the nation should go to
any sacrifice that democracy survive.
He drove home the fact that this is
our war; that it is a struggle for our
liberty and our government and our
rights.
The Republican has no report OF
the ground covered by Mr.. Cunning
ham, but was told that the young
man made the effort of his life, his
address astonishing his auditors, fol
it showed a depth of understanding
of the war that was not expected
from one handicapped with the los
of sight, and shows that the boy i
gifted, and well informed on tn
war,
