Joseph Aron, tr\u00e8s curieux personnage, install\u00e9 aux \u00c9tats-Unis depuis 1855 et naturalis\u00e9 am\u00e9ricain depuis 1871, \u00e9tait revenu en France en 1886. Collaborateur, en 1894, de La Question de demain, <\/i>directeur de L\u2019Homologation, <\/i>revue consacr\u00e9e \u00e0 la d\u00e9fense de la petite \u00e9pargne, qui deviendra, en f\u00e9vrier 1895, Les Mines d\u2019or, <\/i>puis, en juin, L\u2019Or et l\u2019argent, <\/i>menait, une ardente campagne contre l\u2019antis\u00e9mitisme. Ainsi, dans le premier num\u00e9ro des Mines d’or, <\/i>le 23 f\u00e9vrier, et dans une lettre \u00e0 La Cocarde<\/em> (1<\/a>2 f\u00e9vrier<\/a>), il r\u00e9pondit \u00e0 un article de Brulat<\/a> sur \u00ab\u2008l\u2019envahissement\u2008\u00bb des lettres fran\u00e7aises par les juifs (\u00ab Les litt\u00e9rateurs juifs \u00bb<\/a> et \u00ab Grosclaude \u00bb<\/a>, 29 janvier et 5 f\u00e9vrier), et, surtout, il attaqua, avec une belle r\u00e9gularit\u00e9, Drumont auquel, en plus de ses nombreux articles, il consacra plusieurs plaquettes : Michel Goudchaux et \u00c9douard Drumont <\/i>; Questions juives de 1896.\u2008Un agent provocateur <\/i><\/a>; Les Mensonges de Drumont <\/i><\/a>; Mon pauvre Drumont<\/i><\/a> <\/i>, La r\u00e9surrection de Lazare <\/em><\/a>(toutes quatre \u00e0 son adresse, 1896 ; le dernier repris en 1898 sous le titre : Drumont, Zola et les juifs, <\/i>s.n.).<\/span> D\u00e8s le d\u00e9but de l’Affaire, il signa, dans<\/span>\u00a0le num\u00e9ro du 8 novembre 1894 de L\u2019Homologation, <\/i>un article intitul\u00e9 \u00ab Le Capitaine Dreyfus<\/a> \u00bb.\u2008On ne peut pas dire, avec Marrus (p. 245), qu\u2019Aron y demandait simplement qu\u2019on le fusill\u00e2t. Certes, il l\u2019\u00e9crivait bien, se disant partisan de \u00ab la peine la plus s\u00e9v\u00e8re\u2008\u00bb pour un soldat qui \u00ab a livr\u00e9 des documents \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9tranger\u2008\u00bb, mais il demandait qu\u2019avant d\u2019en arriver l\u00e0 f\u00fbt \u00ab\u2008entend[u] l\u2019inculp\u00e9 \u00bb et reproduisait la superbe chronique que Bergerat <\/a>venait de publier dans Le Journal <\/i>du 6 novembre,<\/a> \u00ab\u2008la plus honn\u00eate chose qui ait \u00e9t\u00e9 \u00e9crite depuis l\u2019arrestation du capitaine Dreyfus\u2008\u00bb. Le 12 janvier suivant, Aron revint sur le sujet. Enregistrant le verdict<\/a> qui venait de frapper Dreyfus, il tint toutefois \u00e0 mettre en garde ses lecteurs contre cette presse qui essayait de faire retomber la faute d\u2019un seul sur tous.\u2008De plus, apr\u00e8s les critiques qu\u2019il avait re\u00e7ues, il pr\u00e9cisait les raisons pour lesquelles il avait cit\u00e9 Bergerat dans son pr\u00e9c\u00e9dent article\u2008: non, il ne discutait pas la culpabilit\u00e9 de Dreyfus mais demandait que pour tout suspect fussent respect\u00e9es les garanties minimales de la d\u00e9fense : <\/span><\/p>\r\n

\r\n

N\u2019e\u00fbt-il \u00e0 son actif qu\u2019une chance contre mille d\u2019\u00eatre proclam\u00e9 innocent, Dreyfus \u2013 ou tout autre pr\u00e9venu \u00e0 sa place, il n\u2019importe \u2013 par le fait m\u00eame de son \u00e9tat de pr\u00e9vention, avait droit \u00e0 ne pas \u00eatre \u00e0 l\u2019avance d\u00e9clar\u00e9 coupable. Agir autrement, \u00e0 notre sens, c\u2019est faire volontairement machine en arri\u00e8re, vers ces \u00e9poques de barbarie o\u00f9 fleurissait la torture, \u00e0 jamais bannie aujourd\u2019hui du code des nations civilis\u00e9es. <\/span> Qu\u2019on songe seulement un instant \u00e0 cette hypoth\u00e8se d\u2019une accusation mensong\u00e8re, d\u2019une s\u00e9rie d\u2019erreurs d\u00e9plorables, mais possibles apr\u00e8s tout, des chefs hi\u00e9rarchiques de l\u2019inculp\u00e9 et du Ministre de la guerre,\u2008\u2013 des hommes comme les autres, sujets par cons\u00e9quent \u00e0 l\u2019erreur, \u2013 d\u2019une d\u00e9nonciation calomnieuse ou d\u2019une vengeance. Proclam\u00e9 d\u00e8s lors innocent, et comme tel, renvoy\u00e9 indemne des fins de la plainte dirig\u00e9e contre lui, con\u00e7oit-on supplice moral comparable au sien ? (\u00ab L\u2019Ex-capitaine Dreyfus \u00bb).<\/span><\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n

Nous savons que Lazare<\/a> vint lui rendre visite \u00e0 plusieurs reprises (il en est question dans ses plaquettes) mais il ne semble pas qu\u2019Aron s\u2019engagea plus avant et se manifesta \u00e0 nouveau dans le cadre de l\u2019Affaire… si ce n’est \u2013 car il semble bien (comme tend \u00e0 le penser son petit-fils) que ce soit bien lui \u2013 en souscrivant au monument Henry<\/a> (1\u00e8re<\/sup> liste) et, en janvier 1900 \u2013 et l\u00e0 aucun doute n’est possible ; il souscrivit en compagnie de son \u00e9pouse (n\u00e9e Mac\u00e9) \u2013 \u00e0 celle pour \u00ab offrir \u00e0 Paul D\u00e9roul\u00e8de un objet d\u2019art lui rappelant la Patrie absente \u00bb<\/a> (7e<\/sup>\u00a0liste).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n
