THE REAL CAUSE of trouble in Ire
land and England may be traced to
the system of entailment of real es-
tate. So long as the system Of leaving
the landed estates to the Oldest male

will be monopolized by the few. The
London Times, in very plausibly writ
ten articles, endeavors to combat this,

IDLE MoNEY.-Why should the
Government under Republican ad-
ministration keep hundreds Of mil
lions of gold and silver lying idle in
the Treasury at an expense to the
people? Why not pay two hundred
millions of the government debt with
the specie that is now lying idle and
thus get rid Of the interest on that
amount of bonds and the care of such
an immense amount Of treasure ?
Has the Government of the people no
credit under Republican administIa-
tion2 Must it have the cash on hand
instead of depending on the annual
revenue to give it credit as it did
twenty years ago? We believe the
people have faith in the government,
and therefore its credit would be just
as we'll sustained without the hoard
of hundreds Of millions of dollars Of
gold and silver. Ia fact the Mint can
coin money faster than the govern"
ment needs gold and silver in time of
peace.
Many people are under the impress
sion that the government is bound to
pay specie for the bank notes that are
in circulation but this is not the case.
They are redeemable in greenbacks.
Let the government take up the bonds
it holds of the banks and pay them
in specie, and extinguish the bank
notes to that extent. Then let the
banks use specie or greenbacks, az
the State banks do. We would thus
secure good specie currency for the
banking operations of the country and
place gold and silver in the hands OF
the people where it would remain, ano

DIsAPPoINTMENT.- There seems to |
be great complaint in Washington
among all parties over the appoint-
ment of the Committees by the Speak
er of the House. The N. Y, Times is
outspoken and gives vent to its disap'
pointment in language that cannot be
misunderstood. Itcannot understand
why Pennsylvania, Ohio and ono or
two Western states should be given
the Craftsmanship OF all the important
committees and New York and other
great commercial States be left out in
the cold. 1t says:
Gan analysis of the list of appoint
ments to the committees will not bear
that test. What may be called the
East, that is to say, Ohio, and the
States east of Ohio, have The chair
manship of nineteen committee.
These include those of Ways and
Means, Banking and Currency, Ap>
propIiations, judiciary, Coinage, Rail-
ways aud Canals, Manufactures, Mines
and Mining Claims, Naval Affairs,
Post Offices and Post Roads, District
Of Columbia, Revision of the Laws,
and Public Health. All these are im-
portant committees. Five of them
are of prime Importance. OF the
other committees of any considerable
weight that on Commerce is inscruta' ,
bly, given to Mr.. Page, of California /;
Foreign Affairs to Wisconsin,, Mill
tary Affairs and Pensions to Illinois,
Elections to Indiana. and there the
list may fairly be said to close. Con.
sidering the strength shown in the
Speakership by Mr.. Kasson, of Iowa,
this distribution is not one with which
the West will be satisfied, and, ad-
ding the fact that Mr.. Kasson himself
| has no chairmanshIp whatever, II is
not one with which the West ought to
be satisfied.
The prominence given TO PenDsyl-
vauia is feature difficult to explain
unless by reference to the Influence
that was exerted by Senator Cameron
in the election Of the Speaker. Penn
sylvania has the craftsmanship of
seven committees, three of them
among the most important in the
Hoase. They are Ways and Means,
Post Offices and Post Roads, Manu-
iactu, Coinage, Public Lands and
Buildings, Public Expenditures, and
Expenditures on Public buildings.
The Committee on Ways and Means,
with its enormous power over all iscal
legislation, is practically given over
that State. Its chairman is Mr.. VIM.
ID. Kelley, and among its other mem
bers are Messrs. Errett, Republican,
and Randall, Democrat. New York
has no representative on the commit
tee, though 67 per cent. of the imports
Of the country are made directly u
this port, and II per cent. of the Gus
toms duties are collected here. The
chairman of the committee, Mr.. Kel-
ley, and the leading Democratic mem
Der, ex.Speaker Randall, are pro
nOunced aud extreme protectIonistst
and both are committed to the COM
plete abolition Of the internal revenue
system. 1t is reported that Mr.. Kelley
is disposed to cOncede the necessity VI
a revision of the tariff and to under
take 1t, and that lac is anxious to huE
his name, as Judge Morrill, did III.

Capt. O. H. Austin of Barton Landing
has been appointed Judge of Probate.

The land agitation in Great Britain
has greatly enhanced its value. In
1889 Dorset, England, farmer took
a place at yearly rental of $3.50.
On the renewal of the lease in 1851 the
rent was put up to 9450, and in 1862
to e675, at the latter date % acres be-
ing added to the farm. In 1877 the
rent was further raised to 9725, nearly
double the rate of 40 years before, and
without change of tenancy. During
that period the cost of labor had increas-
ed SO per cent.
