As a peculiar people, favored of God, the Jews
wifl always be a mighty factor in the world's
affairs until they come again iiito their own,
which they surely shall. But to consider the
religious character and eternal destiny of the
Jews in the light of God's promises and revealed
purposes requires a faith to ^hich we are now
strangers. The skeptic would regard the pos-
sibility of such fruition as a wild stretch of the
imagination, compared to which visions of this
region as a New Jerusalem patterned after the
primal Garden of Eden, with the Neches and the
Sabine as prototypes of the Tigris and the
Euphrates, would be mild and tame.
But the world has always kept busy perse
cuting the Jews; and'why? Is it not a fulfillment
of the Scripture? The Jews are a model people,
They make the best citizens; there are no lag-
gards, few fools: no vagabonds, few criminals.
They are generous, high minded, charitable,
strong, progressive and enterprising. Why are
they persecuted to the ends of the earth?
Religious fanaticism is blamed ior much of it
and in a large measure is really responsible; but
one of the principal causes is that the Jews are
a frugal and temperate people, with the result
that they quickly accumulate this world's goods.
These are loaned at interest to the fast living
Gentile; and when the lender asks for his interest
and principal he receives abuse and contumely.

spite and prejudice and persecution lately ram-
pant in Russia for which the Jew is made to
suffer simply because he is a Jew. It in not to
be assumed that tbe U.nited States wants to fight
Russia simply because we believe wrong is being
permitted under Russian laws. There should be
a world concert, however, to assure the Jews as
a people humane consideration. With this coun
try belongs the initiative and the State Depart-
ment has taken it. It remains for others to
follow, or not, as they choose, but the position of
this country cannot for a moment even be held in
doubt when persecution and injustice prevails
anywhere.
A well known authority, John B. Weber, of
Buffalo, New York, in a speech before the Jewish
Chautauqua at Atlantic City, summing up the
status of the Jew in Russia said, among other
things:
"Today he is an alien in the land of his birth, a
subject who bears an undue share of the burdens
of good government without the privileges of the
meanest citizens. Fettered in his movements,
handicapped in his vocation, restricted in his
educational opportunities, he is unable to protect
himself and is powerless to successfully invoke
the protection of the authorities, a slave without
the self-interest of a master to shield him from
abuse—he stands helpless, friendless and de
fenseless, a brute force, egged on not only by
religious intolerance, but by contending forces
that strive to strengthen tbe government on the
one hand and to destroy it on the other, the irre-
ssible conflict of tbe age between government
autocracy and government by the people.
Jew is, therefore, the spoil of the rabble, the
spoil of the official, tbe football of tanaticism,
the buffer against which strikes the wrath of
bigotry, intolerance and savagery."

THE POPE IS DEAD.
This was the whisper which yesterday thrilled
artmnd the world—"the Pope is dead." He was
the greatest and best and the most universally
loved of the Roman pontiffs, many of whom
gave tbe world reason only to hate them.
Leo's life has been one of loving beneficence,
with him was the very spirit of heaven-bom

The exchange editor finds many a literary gem and
many a pretty story in the stray corners of print
which he would like to reproduce, and would if space
permitted. Skimming over the children's page in the
San Antonio Express an interesting letter from a
bright boy in far Skagaway attracts attention. There
is no "fake" news in this:
"Please excuse my pencil. I did not bring ink up
here because it would freeze in the winter time. I am
now stationed in a wide space on the end of the trail
to Dawson called Skagaway. The White Pass and
Yukon railway runs from here to White Horse, alxntt
100 miles on the way to Dawson and the gold fields.
T had a nice time coming up. T came up on the steam-
er Humboldt from Seattle. The scenery emirate ta
prettier than at anv other time of year. From Van-
couver Island. B. C., the mountains are dbver<|1 with
snow that is just getting warm enough to melt. We
made an inshore voyage, that is, sailed álong the shore
between the islands. In some places the channel was
so narrow that it seemed the snow could slide on the
ship. It was just grand to sail along the smooth green
channels, walled in by snow-clad peaks, with great
glaciers wedged in between and thousands of little
streams fed by the melting snow dashing down their
sides into the sea. We didn't lose sight of land but
once, but we struck some heavy seas in Charlotte sound.
"I saw hundreds of porpoises and blackfish and
two big whales. T was walking the upper deck when
I saw a column of water shoot into the air. I didn't
yell, 'There she blows!' Ifke Jack the sailor, but I
watched and directly his great black head came into
view. He floated along a few minutes, then sank, lifting
his terrible forked tail out of the water. The passen-
gers cheered. We nassed numerous icebergs and the
wreck of the ship Colorado, Which ran on a reef. T
visited the "Teat gold mines at Douglas, just across the
bay from Jtmau. The climate here is just like Texas
now. but only for a short time. The sttn rises at 4 a.
m. and sets at 10 n. m. It doesn't get dark at all at mid-
night. " The sky is iust a prettv pink color. Skagaway
is a swift town. There are all kinds of miners, pros-
pectors and money floating round. A $ao gold piece is
called small change here. I guess my $2t.6o won't last
long. All lovers of nature should visit Alaska, for in
no other place is her beauty displayed in greater vari-
ety than here.
"I saw several great glaciers, one in particular, Dav-
idson's glacier. T made a sketch of it. There is a glac-
ier just above the town here.. The ice in a glacier
looks green instead of white like the tnow. Two of
