wise was sentenced to pay with his
life for the murder of his mother-in-
law. p
Coles confession was the only bit
of evidence on which the extreme
penalty was assessed. In his con-
fession in Omaha, he stated that
Grammer had offered him $500 to
kill Mrs. Yogt.
Convicted and condemned, the
men were speedily removed to the
state penitentiary and then was
started one of the most thrilling
fights for mans life ever staged
in this stave. A trial, Respondent

requests for writs, habeas corpus

the supreme court and affirmation, in

The Palestinian Jewish "paccuse'
By DR.. S. NJ Deinard
By DR.. S. N. Deinard.

The anti Jewish riots and mas
sacres in Jerusalem in which
Arab mobs engaged April 4 and
5 really were of a more serious
nature than the outside world has
until now been led to believe.
When the news first reached us
we refused to stig1natize the out
break with the name "pogrom,"
knowing the full brutal signih-
canoe of pogroms as staged in
Poland and Ukraine. But now
that we know the facts, the num-
Der of killed, and wounded, of
Jewish places of business de-
spoiled and destroyed (even a
synagog was broken into by the
mob and it's contents were desc
Grated and destroyed) we cannot
but agree with the Jews of Jeru-
salem that it was a genuine po-
grom-reminding one of the po-
groms staged during the Czarist
regime of Russia.
And the worst of it is that, as
during the Czarist regime in Rus
sia, so in Jerusalem, the pogrom
took place with the full knowl-
edge, the connivance, and it
seems, even the indirect encour-
-agement of the British authori-
ties in Palestine. That is the real
tragedy Of it.
We have now at hand the 3rd
number Of VolII april 8 of the
"Kountres,' little weekly maga-
zine in Hebrew published by the
Zionist Labor Group" a work
mems association of Palestine.
The entire issue of 10 pages is de-
voted to the story of the pogrom,
given with fullness of detail, and
its effect upon the Jews. In this
account, written by residents of
Jerusalem and eye witnesses, the
charge is repeated and reiterated
that the British Administration
of Palestine and Jerusalem is

Arab masses. For that reason
the Jews demanded to prohibit
further demonstrations. The
English municipal authorities,
too, recognized, it seems, the dan
ger of these demonstrations, and
would not permit another. In
spite of it, another demonstration
was staged with the permission
of the "High Administration of
the Conquered Enemy's Terri
tory" During this (second)
demonstration several Jews were
beaten and wounded, and the
sign of the Rothschild Hospital
was broken.
4. After the second demon
stration further demonstrations
were prohibited. But the instiga-
tors that stirred up the mob to
attacks on the Jews were not ap-
pretended or brought to justice,
and they continued to conduct
their propaganda in the press
with greater force, audacity and
ferocity.
S. The agitation bore fruit,
and in the course of the last few
weeks isolated attacks on Jews
occurred at different places in
Jerusalem, especially at the
"Western Wall" (Wailing WalD.
The Executive Council of the
Jews of Jerusalem made COM
plant and protested to the gov
ernment, but received no reply.
6. In the newspaper "Syria
Junubiah" (Southern Syria), the
leader in this hostile agitation,
there was lately printed a procla-
nation calling explicitly for muir
der and b1oodshed, in this wise:
eff our verbal protests will not
be heard, we will pass on to pro-
tests by acts. In place of pens we
will. use swords; in place Of ink
we will use blood" The Jewish
Committee of Jerusalem made
complaint to the governor Of
Jerusalem against this proclama-
ton that was distributed by
the hundreds and thousands Of
copies. The governors reply
was:
,"Why have you published your

alone responsible for the pogrom.
The little paper, after discussing
the tragic occurrences from diff
ferent angles, closes with the fol-
lowing:
"We Accuse
We accuse "the Administration
Of the Conquered Enemy Terri
tory" that it is responsible for the
pogrom that broke out in Jeru-
salem on April 4, and we sum-
mon it before the bar Of justice
on the ground of the following
facts:
1. Hostile propaganda and in
citement to excesses against Jews
has been carried on publicly in
the (Arab) press, at gatherings,
and thru other publicity channels
without any check or interrupt
ton on the part of the Admins
tration. The instigators known
to the government were not
brought to justice; the newspa-
pers stirring up to excesses were
neither stopped nor punished.
The government showed no sign
Of displeasure at this propaganda.
2. With the permission of the
government a demonstration was
arranged against Zionism, which
was essentially a demonstration
against the Jews. In the arrange
ment of the demonstration the in
stigators of the riots passed on
from words to deeds. In the first
hostile demonstration the Arab
masses took no part. No one
came from the villages. Until
then the Arab masses did not be-
lieve yet that the government al
lowed such things. But this dem
onstration served as a proof to
the masses that the government
would not interfere with hostile
agitation against the Jews.
