(From the Washington Times.) The records of the war department show that, there wore more than 4,000 Hobrews in the American armies during the war with Spain. Capt. A. W. Murray, who has been at the department looking up the statistics on this subject, stated that a careful perusal of the muster rolls of the army is su,'icient refutation of the assortiouns mnad by cartain vnn formed and prejudiced persons that the Jewish people were not patriotic Americans. "When war was declared," he said "the Jewish press throughout the country reminded their people of the wanton persecution of the Hebrews by Spain, covering many years. They had boon driven from their country and deprived of their prop erty by the cruel, unjust Spaniards. These papers urged revenge as well as a full and earnost support of their adopted country. "But the young Hebrow men did R not require urging. Their love for America alone wvas enough and they flocked to the standard of lhberty t the Stars and Stripes. That they k fought wvell is a matter of history. rThe first man to fall in the attack on e Manila was Sorgt. Maunrmco J usth, oi r the 1st California volunteers.

The approaching November brings to mind the custom of our ancestors, hallowed by time and rooted in our .&'u anemd traditionR nf .,-ivina thanks to Almighty God for all the blessings he has vouchsafed to us during the past. year. Few years in our history have af forded such cause for thianksgiving. We have been blessed by abundant harvosts, our trado and commerce have been wonderfully increased, our public credit has been improved and strengthened, and all sections of our common country have been brought together and knitted into closer bonds of unatioial purposa and unity. The skies havo been for a time darkened by the cloud of Wiar, but as were compelled to tiake nip the sword in the c .use of humanity, we are permitted to rejoice that the con Ilicjt has been of briof duration and the losies wve have had to mourn, though grievous and important, have been so few, considering the great results accomiplished, as to inspire us5 with grat it ude anud praise to th'e Lord of Hosts.

On the con Lrary lie announces that he will ento he arena ';ith Sonator Martin and >penly debattto the campaign. Ie ays that he will go into every coun ty in the State by spring, if he is rlieved from duty in Cuba by that time. The friends of Ex-Sonator Moore of Fairfax and Congresinan Jones say that neither one of these gentlemen will enter the race if (en. Lee stays in it. The light will be against Martin. Senator Martin is an alleged silver man, but was sent to the sonate by the corporations. Gen..- Lee is supposedly gold man, but has none of the ceroments of corporations to shake off when on tho stump. When he matdo his race for Gover nor in 1885 he did little or io speaking, being unable to speak in public. But, since thenli he as (o v0loped into quite an orator. His style is that of "the plain blunt man, who speaks right on and tells you thatwhich you yourself (10 know." Even without scars his record wil stand him well in the light witi Martin. The latter is so unattr act ihe personally, so unmagnotic tha there is no telling how he will stan<( in comparison with the genial her< of Havana.
