Complimentary to the Jews.The Jews are among the most moral and law-abiding citizens of any community, and are no public expense whatever, either as criminals or paupers. It is the exception when one of their number is found in any of our prisons; none of their children are in our houses of refuge; none of their adults in our almshouses. They have their own hospitals for their sick, and homes for their friendless children. They are loyal people to any government in which their lot may be cast. As a tangible proof for their loyalty to our land, they have our coat-of-arms embroidered on a velvet curtain, which hangs in front of the holy places in their synagogues, in which are deposited their scriptures; and always at the end of their Sabbath religious services they repeat a prayer (in English) for our president and all in authority. There is a yearly record kept by the Jews of all crimes committed by their members in every country; and it is asserted by one of their hi ghest officials that not more than one Jew in fifty years is hong for murder throughout the whole world.
