LADY LAND-LEAGUERS
Defy the Church and Continue Their
SeIf.EIectcd work for Poor Old
Ireland.

CLEVELAND, O., July 9.-The Ladies'
Branch of the Land League of this city still
continues to flourish, notwithstanding Bishop
Gilmour's threat to excommunicate all who
retained their connection with it. One new
member was initiated to-day, and the pres
ent membsrship i sixty. At today's meet
ing Miss Mary Rowland, president of the
league, in the course of address, said:
Eyes, and | ell you Irishwomen, assem-
bled here to-day, whatever purpose you have
III view, whatever work you have to perform,
come forth in the right spirit, and assert it;
stand bravely up before the world, and with
strong hands aud voices proclaim your case
and unhinchingly pursue it. Every victory
has been won by stubborn perseverance.
There is no such thing as give up, or there
shodld not be, in our Irish nature. Courage
and al indomitab.e will must win. Go for
ward then, unheeding all outside voices:
make no Terms with the enemies OF your
country, no matter what terrors may be
hurled against you. Hel's fortunes are not

4 WARNIN-a 70 nAX COLL Ic-


TEHERAE, July IA tax-coIlector in
Persia has come TO an untimely end,
owing to his want OF iudgmen: in The per-
Torrance Of his duties. Zia Bey, tax-col-
lector in the Montetik region, agreed to re-
ceive a lump sum from the villagers of
Refsh in composition OF their sheep tax. an
ticipating that there would be bad Landing
season, in which case the villagers would
have the worst OF the bargain. The season,
however, turned out good one, lambs were
plentiful, and Zia Bey repented the arrange
ment he had made with the villagers. He
accordingly proceeded to count the lambs OF
Refah and to demand the capitation tax.
This breach of faith 20 much ANNOYED the
villagers that they killed Zia Bey in order
to mark their disapprobation of his conduct
Had they contented themselves with this
protest no notice would have been taken of
their action in the matter; but they also i'm
prudently murdered Halef Agha, the officer
the guard. On the matter
being reported TO the mutessarif OF Montefik,
he decided that the villagers were perfectly
justified in killing Zia Bey, as in compound
ing tor the sheep tax he had acted ultra uireS
The killing of Halef Agha, however, was
indefensible, and he therefore dispatched
force TO Refah 10 kill some OF the villagers
and thus rqusre the ACCOUNT after which he
hoped there would be no further misunder-

WHY THE SOUTH Is SOLID.

The people OF the North either cannot or
will not understand why the South remains
solid and impregnably Democratic. They
cannot see that the white taxpayers are
compelled to combine in self-protection TO
prevent the ruinous rue of the ignorant
blacks who follow the lead of The office
seeking adventures. For fifteen wears the
negroes have been welded sOlidly as a poiti-
c a power, and this power has been used for
the destruction OF the taxpaying whites.
The blacks have been impressed with the
lief, by the falsehoods of those who expect
to profit by their ignorant credulitv, that the
Democrats were anxious 10 return them TO
slavery, and that their material and politi-
cal rights were menaced by Democratic sue
cess. These appeals to their fears and pas
sions have induced the colored people to
combine together in former elections and TO
take malicious delight in hurting them
selves against the whites and, as a IN after of
self-preseTyation, the whites have been
forced to combins to prevent the rule of ig-
norance. The organization of the whites Of
the South into one political party was not
due 10 any hatred OF the blacks or TO any
controlling feeling of sectionalism, but to
rid themselves or to prevent the restoration
Of the rule which had ruined them. The
Southern white people constitute the wealth,
the intelligence, areiu large msjority, and as
they best understand the interests and needs
of the taxpayer and the educated m asses, it ia
not surprising that they should combine aud
make solid South so long as they are men,
aced with solid colored vote to be used TO
their detriment. Recent events indicate that
tbs blacks intend to remain solid and this
will uecessitste continuance of the solidity
OF the white vote. The recent Republican
State conventions in Arkansas and Alabama
were composed of the same old gang OF
