obstacle which has hltheito iiiti

difficulty of in ranging upon a pcniM

Dll. KHAUSKOPF, a leunert
Jewish l.ibbl of Philadelphia,
model ately and' we think
I mm his standpoint Juili-cimi'-lj
ciiticles the teims ot tho note
which Sectetai.v Hay lecently dis
patched to the f'ounianian government
In the pel sedition ot the Jews In tint
pilnclpalltv. Di. Ki.iuskopt thinks
that the inoi.il effect of the note was
dlspoimted b what he stiles Its self
pioteetivp Sjililt. The nole was not di
lCitly an appeal to the Koum.iniau
goveinmenl, from which nothing was
to be expected It was ,i piavei to the
huinaiiit.u Ian sense of justice of the
Euiopp.in poweis who could It they
weie so inclined bilng piessuie to be.n
upon the Roumanian government to
mltigite the political disci iminatinn
and social osliaclsm piaoticed toward
the Jew. Seel elan- Hav in dwelling
upon the obllgations'of the sign.itoiiis
to the Beilln tieaty pointed out that
their f.iiliup to enfoue Its teims led to
the iiiiiulRiation of n huge number ot
Roumanian Jews heie, who, owing to
the b.itbatnus subjection under which
they laboied at home, weie not, to
sa the least, piomislng candidates fur
assimilation into our citizenship, to
which they weie otlieiwlse welcome.
D. Kuuiskopt legaids this ciualltlea
tlon as a mistake. He believes the
note should have been bioadly and un
lesenedlv hitiuanitmlau. It might
have done some good. As It was, he
contends that it did none.
It ceitalnly has had little or no pi.ic
lleal effect. The rtouninninn Jew is
still an outlander. He Is debnued fiom
the lights of citizenship in the toun
U .v in which he and his foiefatheis
weie boin. He cannot pui chase land
oi live In the countiy. In the cities he
is testilited to the ghetto, and is dis
luiuelilsed fiom follow inc: any but the
meanest and moie sordid occupations.
The apologists for the Iloiinianlnn gov
ernment point out that all foieigneis
suffer (torn th same disabilities. This
Is tine, but the speciousups-. of tho fact
iIoph not obscuie Its infamy. The foi
eiguei who Is not a Jew Is not a native.
The Jew who Is pioscilbecl as a foi
elguer Is a native and Invailably the
descendant of a native.
What Dr. Kiauskopf objecis to as the
self-pioteethe splilt of Secietniy llaj's
nole Is more appaicut than iclil. Mi.
Hay might with diplomatic piopilety
have addtpssed a leinonsliance on liu
miiultailan giounds alone, but, ho was
well awnie what the mental leseiva
tlon Implied lu tho founal i espouse giv
en to It would bo and ot tho cynical
ipceptlon which It would meet lu the
fmclgn pioss, ns Indeed It met, nioio
or let s liankly, as It was. We would
be told that the ttentment by our sol
diets of lefiactoiy ot iucoiiiglblc Filip
inos did not challenge the admit ntlon
of Utitope; that while uegioes wcio
buiutd at the stake In the south It
demanded no little nsstiuincu on our
putt to lemonstiate with an Indepen
dent government on the tidmlnlsu ntlon
ut Its domestic nlfalts In coupling u

which In a piiictlc.il vIpw, seemed to It
wesest and best.
We slmeiely fcympathle with Dr.
Kiauskopf, We tindei stand his posi

lellglous of tho lellglon of Abiahain,
Isaac and Jucoli will not, wo hope,
