Charles Lee Watson, senior member

Sunday evening at a small washout

happen and made an effort to get out.
He was on the running board Of the
car when it turned off the bridge. and
so rapid was the fall that it threw
him distance of ten feet up the hill
side when it turned over. He landed
on his face unhurt.
The car dropped about four feet and

stop. Mr.. Coe Immediately rushed to
the car, tore off the side curtains and

October %, 1917.

The inference to be drawn from the
editorial screed is that the people
of the east side of New York and
of Brownsville, all Jews, of course,
are all Bolsheviki; which is lie.
There are many socialists among
them; but there are just as many
pious old Jews, who abbor social
ism; and there are just as many
conservative men of business. They
are spoken of as aliens. But who
was Joseph Pulitzer himself? AS
matter of fact, the young Jews of
the east side are mostly natives just
like the degenerate son Of Joseph
Pulitzer. The Yiddish newspapers
of the east side are said to be prac-
tically all socialist, which again is
a lie. Only one or two Of them rep
resent socialism; the others are the
avowed organs of political conser-
vatism.
Yes, Ralph Pulitzer is faithfully
walking in the footsteps of the long
line of Meshummodim who have
been among the chief actors in Is
raePs tragedy.

EDl TORlAL
RENEGADES AND THEIR OFF
SPRING.

One Of the outstanding tragic
facts of our Jewish history is that
renegades from Judaism and their
offspring have been our most bitter
opponents and most ruthless perse-
cutors. Many page of our history
is thus blackened by the tragic re-
suits of the evil Vaccinations, the
calumnies, the malevolence of our
own meshummodim against us.
And this process is not yet ended,
as the following editorial from re-
cent number of the New York
World will show.
"Tammany's Class War.
"Tammany's anxiety over the
strength shown by Hillquit, the So
cialist candidate for Mayor, is un-
doubtedly genuine. But why should
Murphy be perplexed and astonish-
ed? Tammany's class-war and
class-hatred campaign is bearing it's
natural fruit
'Was Murphy silly enough to be-
lieve that he would reap the crop
from such seed? That kind of
harvest belongs inevitably to Hill
quit and the Bo1sheviki of the east
side and Brownsville. Class-hatred

A DOUBTFUL GAIN.

From all appearances Morris Hill
quit may be the next Mayor of
Greater New York. Hillquit is a
Jew, and is the candidate of the So
ciahst party. We Jews may have
the distinction of furnishing the
chief executive of the greatest city
in the world. The probability of
Hillquit's election springs from the
fact that the Republicans of New
York are divided, and Tammany is
still in disrepute. The Socialists of
New York are carrying on an active
and aggressive campaign.
Should Hillquit succeed in his
quest of the high office, we doubt
whether it will be an occasion of
rejoicing for us. Under present
conditions a Socialist mayor can do
no more in city government than
the representative of any other
party. He may not be able to do
as much. We have a good il1ustra-
ton OF the tact III the city of Min
neapolis under a Socialist admins
tration. The anti-war sentiments
and activities of the majority of the
Socialists have aroused greater hos
tility to the party than would other
wise be the case. For Jew at this
time to be the Socialist mayor of
New York would be doubtful gain
for us. The unreasoning ones of
our fellow-citizens- and their name
is legion-never blame or attack
the individual for whatever faults
in their opinion he may have, but
always the group to which he be-
longs. 1t is we'll for every Jew who !.
has the welfare Of his fellow-Jews
at heart, to take this matter into
serious consideration. A man is en-

is their trade. Despo1l1ng the rich
for the benefit Of the poor is their
dream of the millennium. Class
consciousness is their political and
economic gospel.
The imagination of all these ali
ems is highly inhamed by the Rus
sian revolution, which did not stop
with the overthrow of the Roman
offs, but went on to the general con-
fscation Of private property by the
comrades" who firmly believe that
it is possible to eat without work
ing. The Yiddish newspapers on
the east side are practically all So
cialist, and the class issue that Tam
many has raised against Mitchell has
been taken over by Hillquit And
why not? Certainly if the Tam
manyHearst Hylan, charges are
true, Hillquit is the answer. The
east side has brains enough to know
that Tammany and Murphy and
Hearst and their crassly ignorant
candidate Hylan are not the answer.
Why throw Mitchell out to put that
gang in? Therefore the sentiment
for Hillquit reaches the intensity of
hysteria, as might have been ex-
pected.
"Tammany's Gary school riots
add fresh fuel to the flames, and so
the east side sets out to convert
New York into another Petrograd
to the glory Of the Tavarishi. At
last a definite class war has been
declared in New York, and the re-
sponsibility rests wholly upon the
leadership of Tammany Hall in a
shameless alliance with William
Randolph Hearst"
AS is we'll known, the New York
World was made what it is now,
one Of the most influential metropol-
itan papers, by Joseph Pulitzer,
Hungarian Jew, who, however, did
not during his successful career
identify himself with anything Jew
ish. It is quite possible that he
even became a member of some
Christian church, probably in order
to get social standing and recogni-
ton, as is often done by some of
our successful snobocrats.
The present owner, publisher and
editor of the World is Ralph Pulit-
zer, the son of that immigrant Hun
garian Jew. 1t is he, therefore, who
is responsible for the editorial quot
ed above with all it's lies, SANDERS,
and vicious attacks on the Jews.
Ralph Pulitzer, we don't doubt, is
a good Episcopalian now, for he be-

ONE.CLUb CONTEST

Whether there shall be absolutely

rather informal one-club tournament
at Moanalua last Sunday was the
question upon whose answer depended

shot the ball into the stream which
runs to the right Coming home) OF
te Moanalua fairway. While entitled
to lift his ball and drop it clubs
length from the stream. it Is alleged
that it was taken in on the fairgreen
more than this distance, the player
being unaware of the exact ruling.
However, it is pretty certain that
a good many players in the one-club
contest did not follow the rules to
the hairsbreadth. The one-club tour
ney furnished a lot of good sport and
there is no disposition to take away
from Mr. Medeiros the credit for hav.

large number took part and even the
