Cowper's Confidence.

DUBLIN, May 12-The Viceroy, in re-
plying to the deputation of leading citi-
zens of this city and Belfast last even
ing, expressed confidence that all classes
of the people would aid in bringing the
murderers of Lord Cavendish and I'm
der Secretary Burke to justice. He
quoted from a letter received from Lady
Cavendish in which she says:
/ would never grudge the sacrifice of
my darlings life if only it leads to put
ting down of the frightful spirit of evil
in the land He never would have
grudged it if he could have hoped his
death would have done more than his
life. There seems to be some hope of
this. and You are doing all you can to
keep down the danger Of panic and blind
vengeance.
The Viceroy added: "Lct these noble
Christian principles guide you in this

Women Wanted.

Wyoming's want is women. We want
women here, partially to even up the
population and partially to marry. Our
territory is suffering more now for choice
styles of young and middle aged woman
than for anything else. We need them
IN all departments of industry where
women may be employed, and also in
orr homes and by orr firesides. There
are hundreds of lonely men in Wyoming
who are doing well financially and who
would willingly rush into matrimony if
there were enough matrimony to go
around. II is the saddest feature of our
wide Western country at present. The
over-populated East, where a young man
may pay for ice-cream or oysters for
three girls at time, ought TO contribute
some OF its wealth of girls to this desc
late land, where there is only one woman
to five or six men, and where life is n
hollow mockery.
We sometimes wish that nature had
designed us for hired girl instead of an
editor so that we could have been indie
pendent. In this country "a hired girl"
Is only another name for afiluence and
financial stability.
Twenty-Five dollars per month and
board make the poor, cringing editor
green with envy. And yet there are not
enough girls in this country TO do half
the work. A man lives out half his DAYS
and at last secures a wife, only TO find
that the latter part of his career will be
devoted to securing servant girl for
her.
It's tough.
Life Is too brief to be trifed away in
this manner. One friend of ours who
has been reared IN luxury has been with
out girl for two months, and although
he has offered all kinds of inducements.
he has been compelled to make the beds
and do the chamber work, while his wife
did the washing and cooked the meals.
Let the man who never tried il. rise ~
6 o'clock, dress five children in the sub
dued light of early morning. then cock
breakfast, eat IL aud go down town fer "A
couple of months, and he will allow the
girl that will work for him the use of his
upright piano and take her with him rs
the theater Why, il has arrived ut such
stage here In Laramie that WHEN man
asks one Of his nighbors if he knows II
servant glrl that he can get, the mob
turns loose at him and laughs at him
till he wishes he was dead
Ii is not an uncommon occurrence for
girl to come West, work at regular
wages tw or three years, and then, %
an heiress. marry hloated capitalist
and settle down.
1t is horrible fact that nnlers some
thing is done to prevent the ccntraliza-
ton of capital among the servant girls Of
Wyoming, arevolutiou csnnotbe avoided.
There is not man within the sound
Of our voice that will not admit with
tears in his eyes and both suspender
buttons trembling and lettering to their
very foundation, that such is the case.

The new Measures Which Have Been introduced
for the Repression of Crime In Ireland.

The new Measures Which Have Been Introduce
for the Repression Of Crime in Ireland.
The new Coercion bill establishes
special tribunals, consisting of three
Judges to be appointed by the lord
lieutenant, to try cases without jury.
The judgment of the court must be
unanimous. Appeal can be made to
the supreme court, the judgment OF
the latter to be given by majority of
the judges. The supreme court may
diminish, but can not increase the
severity of sentences Parliament will
be asked to provide special remuneration
for special judges.
The bill also contains the following
provisions:
1t gives power to search for secret
apparatus of murder, such as arms,
threatening letters, etc, power to enter
houses by day or night, under warrent
of the lord lieutenant; power to arrest
persons prowling about at night and
unable to give accoun. of themselves,
who are to be dealt with summarily
power to arrest strangers for crimes
generally committed by foreign ennis
saries, the hospitality of England not
being for such persons as agents of o.
Donavan Rosa; and power to remove
foreigners considered dangerous to the
peace. The government therefore in
tend to revise the alien act.
Secret societies will be dealt with
summarily, and membership thereof
will constitute an offence under the act.
Gases of aggravated assault will be
treated in summary manner Power
is given TO repress intimidation and
unlawful meetings, the latter to be
dealt with summarily. Newspapers
containing seditious and inflammatory
matter will be suppressed, and the
proprietors required to enter into rec
ognizances not to repeat the offence.
Justices can compel the attendance OF
witnesses ABOUT to abscond. The lord
lieutenant can appoint additional police
where necessary, ut the cost of the
districts concerned.
Compensation for murder and out
rage will be required of districts where
they occur. Outrages will be dealt
with summarily by the courts, which
are to consist of two stipendiary magis-
trates The government reserves for
consideration any further alteration OF
the jury system.
The lord lieutenant is TO have power
to proclaim districts to which this act
may be applied.

FANCY FARMING.
Provisions ofthe Bill Creating a new Department
of Agriculture.

Provisions ofthe Bill Creating a new Department
0fAgriculture.
Washington Special to the Milwaukee
Republican:-The passage of the bill
making the Department of Agriculture
an executive department by the almost
unanimous vote of the house is regarded
as an indication that it will pass the
senate. The proviso that the secretary
must be prominent agriculturist is not
favorable 10 the promotion of Doctor
Loring, the present incumbent, as he
lacks this qualification; nor will it be
approved by prominent politicians, who
argue that men for their works should
occupy all the prominent places. 1t is
due, however, to the farmers of the
country, in whose interests it is pro-
posed to start the new department, to
place one of their own number at its
head, and this feature was recognized
as essential to make it acceptable to the
Republicans of the country's farming
regions. In addition TO secretary of
agriculture, who shall be cabinet Of
ticer, and an assistant secretary, the bill
also provides that there shall be four
bureaus in the new department. The
bureau of agricultural products is to
have divisions of botany, entomology
and chemistry, and its chief, who must
be a practical agriculturist, is to invest
igate and report upon the modes of
farming in the different states, together
with such practical information as shall
benefit farmers respecting the crops
most profitable in the several sections,
the preferable varieties of seeds, plants.
fruits, fertilizers, implements, etc. The
bureau of animal industry is to be in
charge of a competent veterinary sur
geon who shall investigate and report
upon the number, value and condition
of the domestic animals in the United
States, their protection, growth and use
and the causes, prevention and cure of
infectious or other diseases to which
they are subject, and the kind or breed
best adapted to the different sections
The bureau of land is to report upon
the capabilities and resources of the
public lands for farming, stock raising.
timber, mining, manufacturing or other
industrial uses, and to it is proposed
to transfer bodily the United States Ge-
illogical Survey. Through this bureau
the secretary may make such investiga-
ton and collect such facts and stats
ties relative to the mines and mining of
the United States as may be deemed
valuable and important. The bureau
of statistics is to collect and report the
agricultural statistics of the United
States. including those Of industrial, ed
ucational and agricultural colleges, and
also relating to labor, markets, prices.
modes and costs of. transporting agri-
cultural products to market to the de-
mand, supply and prices in foreign
markets; to manufacturing establish

Hon. Geo, G.. Hazelt0n.

This gentleman, at present member
of Congress from the Third Wisconsin
District. is one of the leading and most
influential statesmen in this body. He
has won a high record in the House as
gentleman and speaker of rare abil-
ity. His courtesy and affiability are so
unfailing that he has acquired deserY-
ed popularity quite enyiable. His work
on committees to which he has been APP
pointed, in hearing Investigations and
disposing of business has been very
great, and the interests of the Govern
ment have ever been watched with a
keen and vigilant eye. While Wiscon-

Any propositio ion tending towar,,
strengthening the army has, on the av-
erage Democratic congressman, much
the same effect that red rag does on a
mad bull. A blue uniform appears to
have very disorganizing effect on their
constitution. 1t is nightmare of the
most hideous description. The bill
which was before Congress to place the
state militia in some SORT OF organization
where they could be made effective was
solidly opposed by the Democratic rep
resentatives who only saw in it another
effort to increase the army.

A Critical Gnndifinn.

CAIRO. May 12.-The situation here
has become very critical. Many of the
foreign residents here have become
alarmed and are preparing to leave.
An extra session of the Egyptian Par
lament opens next Sunday. Delegates
are being urged to sign petition urg-
ing the Khedive to abdicate and nomi-
nate his son, Abba Pasha, with the pres
ent ministry as regent, and with Arab
Pacha as Governor. Popular feeling is
very strong on this side, and revolt is
not unlikely to occur should the Khe-
dive refuse to accept the programme
laid out for him.

Lake Ontario Getting shallow.

the most probable cause is found in the

ceedings in Guiteau's case is being cir.
culated and receives many signatures
about Boston. The petition is based
on the alleged insanity of the prisoner.

Gladstone's answer to the recent as
sassinations is a bill for the repression of
crime before which former coercion bills
are mere playthings. 1t is not unex-
pected. Harcourt in introducing it said
that the bane of Ireland was secret socie-
ties and this class of organizations is
grasped with an iron hand. Fenianism
and the dynamite section are once more
triumphant. They have stopped con-
Citation. If further evidence was need
ed of the total depravity of that faction
it is given in an address issued by a body
styling themselves the Irish Republican
Brotherhood, in which, after asking a
suspension of all sympathy with the vic
tins of the recent assassination winds up
as follows: Now, furthermore. we call
upon all our brothers in America, partic-
ularly advanced Nationalist to aid, by
every means within their power, the
men who have carried on this execution.
And we hereby further declare that they
deserve well of their country 1t is
this Irish Nihilism which the new bill
seeks to reach. 1t is now learned that
the measures which Gladstone was on
the point of introducing previous tojthe
murder of Lord Cayendish and which
had received the approval of that I'M
fortunate nobleman, provided that one
years rent should be paid by the tenant,
one year by the landlord, and the third
year should be paid out of the church
funds. These measures are not with
drawn but will be introduced so soon as
terrorism and outrage are put down
throughout Ireland.
The boast of Parnell and his friends
has been that the concessions made by
the English government have been won
by constitutional means. 1t now trans
pires that outrages and crimes have
marked every page of the calendar from
the beginning of the agitation until the
hour when the assassin's knife sent
thrill of horror throughout Christendom.
The last crime is but the outgrowth of
the former and however much the
League may deplore its commission it
can not otherwise than he morally held
responsible for its execution. Gladstone
is the only English statesman possessed
OF the power to put his opinions into
practical effect who has ever shown
signs of desiring to do justice to Ireland
The way in which his oveltures have
been met will hardly tempt others to
follow in his footsteps. Ireland's worst
enemies are her own factions.
