Context added by this archive

The New York Times, 1912, in its own headline voice: colonists, and the verb is redeem. This is the clipping the colonization section of this archive is built around, and the last of its four lines is the one people miss — Foreign Jews Furnishing Capital and Executive Ability to Make the Natives Self-Supporting.

Every element of a colonial prospectus is in it: foreign capital, executive ability, and natives who are to be made self-supporting. Nobody hid any of this; it was the selling point.
