The condition OF Irish manufactures
to-day is aptly described in the plat,
|orm adopted at the Irish Nationa
Convention hast week. III says:
The naturally created capital of the
country is sent to England on one pre-.
text or another, and brings no eX.
change except articles Of English manu-
factuEes, which Irish people under sell
government would produce them.
selves. or purchase in America. Irish
manufactures, deliberately destroyed
by England in the last century, are
still dormant. Her immense water
power turns no wheels; her canals are
all but impossible, her rivers are all
ohstrncted her useful clay and vain
able minerals are untouched. II her
beautiful harbors are few ships except
those OF her enemy.
This is emphaticaliy true, and while
other causes have operated to bring
distress upon ireland, while English
misrule in many directions has brought
ruin to the Green Isle. her policy of
free trade has perhaps done more than
anything else to kill everything that
might have added to Irish wealth and
prosperity.
Euglands idea is always to find Il
market for her own goods. Ireland,
with her manufactures discouraged
wonll be Il buyer, and the way to kill
ont all enterprises for the production
OF goods and compel their purchase
elsewhere, was to establish free trade,
aud TINS bring competition which
she could not stand. This is what was
done, and with the consequence voiced
SIS above by the convention.

when he was with tie Army of the

were Ike white snow cloud for miles

ANCIENT RUINS IN SONORA.
One of the Recently Discovered Lost Cities
of Mexico.

Tucson Citizen.
Ancient ruins have recently been discov-
cred in Sonora, which, if reports are true,
surpass anything Of the kind yet found on
this content. The ruins are said to be about
four leagues southeast of Magdalena, There
is one pyramid which has a base of 4, $50 feet
and rises TO the height OF $50 feet. There is a
winding roadway from the bottom leading up
on an easy grade to the top, wide enough for
carriages to pass over which is said 10 be
twenty three miles in length. The outer
walls of the roadway are laid in solid mason
ry from huge blocks of granite in rubble,
and the circles are as uniform and the grade
as regular as they could be made at this date
by our best engineers. The wall, however,
is only occasionally exposed, being covered
over with the debris and earth, and in many
places the sahuaro and other indigenous
plants and trees have grown up giving the
pyramid the appearance of mountain. 10
the east of the pyramid short distance is
small mountain about the same size, which
rises to about the same height and, if re-
ports are true will prove more interesting to
the archeologist than the pyramid There
seems to be heavy layer of a species of gyp-
sum about half way up the mountain,
which is as white as snow, and may be cut
into any conceivable shape, yet sufficiently
hard to retain its shape after being cut In
this layer of stone people of an unknown
age have cut hundreds upon
to sixteen or eighteen feet square. These
rooms are cut out of the solid stone, and so
even and true are the walls, floor and cell
ing, so plumb and level, as to defy variation.
There are no windows in the rooms and but
one entrance which is always from the top.
The rooms are about eight feet high from
floor to ceiling the stone Is so white that it
seems almost transparent and the rooms are
not at all dark On the walls of these rooms
are numerous hieroglyphics and representa-
lions of human FORMS with hands and feet
of human beings cut in the stone in different
places. But, strange to say, the hands all
have five fingers and one thumb, and the
feet have six toes. Charcoal is found on the
floors of many of thu rooms which would
indicate that they built fires in their houses.
Stone implements OF every description are to
be found in great numbers in and about the
rooms. The houses or rooms are one above
the other, three or four stories high but be-
tween each story there is a jog or recess the
full width OF the room below so that they
present the appearance of large steps leading
up the mountain. Who these people were
and what age they lived in must be answered;
if answered at all, by the "wise men of the
East" Some say they were the ancestors of
the Mayos a race of Indians who still in
habit southern Sonora, who have blue eyes,
fair skin and light hair, and are said to be a
moral, industrious and frugal race of people,
who have a written language and know some
thing of mathematics.

How the Late George Cruikshank Tried to

How the Late George Cruikshank Tried to
Put Spoke in the Wheel.
Frank Bellew in New York Tribune.
George Cruikshank had been all through
his life up to about 1913 very Incorporate
man, when he suddenly became a total alb
stainer, and began to use his powerful pencil
in the cause of temperance. The first hand
grenade he flung at the tyrant rum was a
pamphlet of twelve pages about the size of
Harper's Weekly which he called THE Bot
mechanic who, beginning with one glass of
gin, descends step by step through
the various stages of misery and
crime till he ends by Staying his wife
with the instrument of all his misery, the
bottle This was very forcbly treated, and
took the town by storm, selling enormously,
and of course turning large sum of money
into Cruikshank's pocket. 1t gave Douglas
Jerrold an opportunity for one of his sar-
casms Walking with a friend, he met
Cruikshank. "Hallo!" he cried, there comes
Cruikshank; hasn't been out of public
house since The Bottle was published"
But this was not true. Cruikshank, l be-
liove, never relapsed and was certainly most
sincere and earnest in the cause of temper
ance when l visited him.
II want to do something" he said, "for the
benefit of my fellow-creatures before l die
and if l can put one spoke in the wheel of

Here he paused, and making dash at the
picture began to point out some of the parts
which seemed to him the most effective as
moral lessons
There is no greater thief and ruffian IN
the world than Gin, he went on. people
in broadcloth and white stocks call him Port

that, and nothing but Gin. Why, the ras-
cally, thieving cadger, he IL steal the mothers
shift and the baby's rattle. There's nothing
too little and nothing too big for him; he'll
fake castle and twenty thousand broad
acres with one hand, and chid's penny
whistle with the other. Now, don't you
think, my dear sir, it is worth while trying
to give this great cowardly brigand one good
whack on the head? l don't expect to kill
him, of course. L am not insane enough to
even hope for that; but do want to have

Men who try to fool their wives generally

bands knowledge, to her mother, who had
sent the postal order, and she in turn com

case. Mr.. Baldwin will not do it again.

Sustained in His Indian Policy
The Indian Question.

Lafayette Journal.
The Indians are annually costing millions
of dollars for their subsistence. If they
could be made to aubsist themselves and de-
vote themselves to agriculture they would
abandon the war-path, the troops might be
withdrawn, and thus two sources of expen-
diture to the government cut Off General
Crook made the somewhat bold statement
that the Indians are forced upon the war
path. We cannot believe that the General
WOULD make use of language so emphatic
without positive knowledge of the facts. We
know that the Indians have been swindled,
robbed, and that in many instances agents
have acted in bad faith toward them. Civil
lied white men would rebel against such
treatment as the Indians have at times re-
ceived. 1t is 10 be hoped that the govern
ment will adopt the policy suggested by
General Crook Let the bayonet be put
aside except in cases where it is actually re-
quired for the protection of the settlers.
