Mr.. SULLIVAN, president of the
Irish American National League,
talks like man whose strong con-
YictiOns do not stand in the way of
his strong good sense. He holds
that an attempt at revolution would
be criminal while there's no chance
of success Mr.. Sullivan, of course
is speaking of armed revolution, for
the state of ireland to-day is state
rebellion which aims at so marked
a change of government as would
be not less than revolution. Until
Ireland can strike with some show
of success armed rebellion would be
simply self murder. England is
powerful and always ready. She is
on her guard and in possession Of
every spot that could be battle
field. And here is where patriots
Of the Rosa kind make their mis-
take. Spasm0dic explosions of
dynamite will not crush England,
and they are likely to bring down
on Ireland much of the cost of war
without any of its advantages. The
screws will be turned again and
again on the Irish people, and their
case will be more hopeless than
ever.

rHE SALT LAKE, HISTORY.

A correspondent writes in this
issue of The HERALD concerning
the proposed publication Of a history
of Salt Lake City, and, as the gen
tleman has done heretofore, presents
some very good reasons why the
work should be performed. Among
other things he refers to valuable
and expensive history Of a New
England city that was gotten up
under the auspices of the common
council and,paid for out of the cor
poration funds. There are dozens
of similar works on as many cities
of the United States, and in all save
those of the larger and more popu-
Ious places, the expense has been
borne by the cities. In a city like
New York or Philadelphia or Bos-
ton, a fair and faithful history
would find buyers enough to pay Tor
its publication, but the cost Of a
complete and exhaustive history OF
Salt Lake. such as is desired if any
be published, is too great to
warrant a person IN undertaking
The work in the expectation of max
it pay him for his time and trouble
from the profits on private sales OF
the book. It's an enterprise that
belongs to the public. The latter,
not individuals will derive the benes
cts from it and should bear the first
expense. THE HERALD has been
an earnest and conscientious advo-
cate of Mr.. Tullidge's proposition to
write, compile and publish the his
tory of this city. No one will dis
pute that there should be q history
of the city, which is now nearly
thirty-six years old; and there are
few if any persons better qualified
to perform the literary labor
than Mr.. E. w. Tullidge, not only
because Of his well-knoWn and &C
knowiedged literary ability, but
also for the reason that he already
possesses many if not most of the
data required. 1t being conceded
that the history should be written,
now is the time to write it while
the facts are all Obtainable at first
hand, those who have made
much of our history from the
beginning icing still here and
familiar with the story Of our city.
However, if what has been said IN
the council be true, namely: that |
there is 10 legal authority for de-
voting any part Of the public
money TO this work, the fact will
temporarily delay the execution of
the project. We are confident the
taxpayers would be willing that a
reasonable sum be invested in d |
history at this time; but the ques-
ton of the legality Of the appropri-
alton having arisen, the matter
should be determined definitely be-
fore anything is done that could
hereafter be called up to the injury
of the council. 1t Will be no diff
cult task for the council, at the
coming session of the legislature, to
obtain the necessary authority to
make the required appropriation,
and then let US have full and
complete history of the place.

In MARYLAND, the other day, the
whipping-post was brought into
reuuisitiOn for the punishment Of a
yifs-bsater. The fellow was given
a dozen Iashes, each of which was
laid on by powerful hands, the
officer being earnest IN carrying out
the sentence of the court. The
victim, towards the close Of the
castigation, fairly screamed from
pain. But it Is questionable il the
physical suffering equaled the
mental anguish and humiliation.

NOTWITHSTANDING an appearance
of general prosperity in business cir
cles the failures for the first quarter
of the present year show formidable
increase over those of 1882 and 1881,
both in regard to numbers and amounts
involved. The total number of fail
ures was 1889, an increase of sixty per
cent over the same period in 1881 and
forty-nine per cent of 1882. The total
liabilities foot up $40, 1885, 35, an in
crease of forty-two per cent over last
year. The assets are reported at $685.
63,S2S, an increase of fifty-fiVe per
cent over 1882 The average iabili-
ties for each failure amount to 3d.
243; the average assets, 1912. The
ratio of total assets to total liza
bilities is 56.2 per cent. The lowest
average liabilities to each failure
was S7912, in the Pacific states; the
highest, $20,701, in the middle states.
The mercantile agencies which have
compiled the above statistics claim
that the increased number of failures
was simple cleaning out of a lot of
crippled firms which have been hang
ing by the eyelids for long time.

THERE seems to be some anxiety in
banking circles as to whether the ma
tional bank circulation will not fall off
in the coming year to such an extent
as to cause trouble. In a letter to u
bank president who had made inqui-
ries upon this matter. Comptroller
Knox gives his reasons for believing
that there will not be any great re-
duction in the amount of national
bank notes in circulation i'm the next
year. OF S54.000,OO0 of 3Is per cent
bonds outstanding on March l, 1888,
national banks hold only about S14.-
100000. while they hold Sl9S.O00,O0O
of threes out Of $685.. 100000. Nearly
three-quarters of the per cent bonds
held by the banks are among the first
bonds issued. The securities held by
national banks will, therefore, not be
affected to great extent during the
coming year by the payment of bonds.
The comptroller then goes on to show
thai. the greater part of the circula-
tion is held by banks in geographical
locations where the profit upon it is
sufficient inducement for them to con-
tinue to hold the high-priced bonds,
and to replace such small amounts as
may be called with others.

The Ostrich Farm.
lLos Angeles Herald, March % ]


Twenty-Five ostriches arrived yes
terday from South Africa, by the
Southern Pacific railroad, and were
taken to their new home, about three
miles from Costa station, on farm of
$40 &C 'es that was purchased for their
residence. These rare and valuable
birds are valued at $1,000 apiece, and
the whole band, occupying baggage
car, was insured for $1,000 in the Ac-
cident Insurance compauy for the
benefit of their owne.a 10 4 not for
their relatives. as is the Iianner of
other bipcds. This lot OF birds, the
first of their kind to settle ON this
coast, stand six and half feet high
without boots, and attract great at
tenJion. While waiting over mt the
depot for the Anaheim train. they
amused the spectators about The car
by swallowing some large oranges
that were given them, without the
trouble Of mastieation. Their powers
of deglutition were an astonishment
to those who saw them exercised.
DIR. &. j. Sketchlcy, of South Africa,
had charge of the birds, and we hope
he will be successful in his efforts TO
raise them in our county.

Our of the system of African slav-
cry, says Wilkeson, arose practice of
paying low wages in the south. Free
whites could not compete with black
slaves. This condition of affairs pro-
duced race of poor whites in the
south. In their competition with
slave labor they learned to live eco
nomically, and the consequence is
that the southern mills can get opera
tives at much less cost than the New
England manufacturers. The whites
could not compete with the negroes
in field labor, and the cotton mills, in
which no negroes are employed, were
established ut an Opportune
time for them. The man
who would have prophesi d
twenty years ago that the emancipa-
ton of the slaves would suppress the
cotton manufacturing industry of
New England would have been re-
garded rs lunatic, but such proph-
ecy now is safe. The southern cotton
industry is based on the low wages of
operatives. In 1880, 1929 operatives
were employed in southern cotton
mills. They were paid $751;, 347, or an
average of $l69 each. During the same
year the Massachusetts operatives
were paid $3.50, and those of Maine
$251 each. The northern opera tives
received an average sum of $50 a
year more than those employed In
the southern mills. There is doom in
these figures.

THE southern exposition, at Louis
vile. Kentucky, opens August 1, and
continues one hundred days. To in
dictate the purposes of this exposition
the STATESMAN must be guided by a
circular presented in its behalf. Over
quarter of a million dollars have
been subscribed to make the enter
prise grand success, and it is antici-
pated not only in display, but in at
tendance, the occasion will be the
grandest of its sort ever held in the
south. 1t is set forth by the circular
of the directory that cotton is to be
the central feature of this exposition;
and never before was cotton
more worthy the study of thinking

more earnest in their efforts to i'm
prove their crops than they have ever

portant for them to determine how
they can realize something from the
oil in the cotton seed, and at the same
time give to the land the cotton seed

Col. GEORGE l.. WALTON, distin-
guished citizen of Louisiana, is in
Austin, visiting his brother. Major
VIM. NJ. Walton. Col. Walton is at
this time president of the Louisiana
state senate, in which position he has
won the undivided respect and conf
dence of The people of Louisiana.
Many years Col. Walton was a resi-
dent of Austin, and, since leaving
Texas, he has been engaged in planting
on the Mississippi river. Not long
ago considerable anxiety was felt as
to the state of this gentleman's health,
and now, after recovering from a
protracted and severe attack of
pneumonia, he is seeking change of
place for the more perfect restoration
of his health, and will, probably, be-
fore his return to his state, extend his
visit to California. The STATESMAN
wishes him, as he certainly will have
among his devoted relatives and
friends. a pleasant sojourn in the Cap
ital City of Texas.

THE legislature is asked to make
an appropriation for maintaining a
commission at the southern exposi-
ton, to begin at Louisville in August.
The STATESMAN has repeatedly urged
that the state take stock in these
great exhibitions. The one at Louis
Vile will be attended not only by
people from all the states of the
Union, but by visitors from every
civilized country on the globe. The
state suffered by not being represented
at the centennial exposition, by
not making Texas known at
Atlanta and at Boston and other
points where great interstate and in
ternatiohal exhibits have been made
Certainly she has remained in the
background long enough. The natur'
al and industrial productions of Tex
rs are as varied as those of any coun
try on the globe, and the credit to b'
derived from their exposition where
vast throngs of inquiring people con
gregate, is of no insignificant nature
1t is earnestly hoped that hereafte
there will be displayed a determine
ton to make Texas known a
such places, and to thi
end the legislature should direct it
attention. Some time ago in discuss
ing the exhibition at Boston we he'll
that there should be general an
permanent provision for the state
representation at all the great exhib
.tions of Europe and America.

he forfeits the respect Of his fell
lows, and becomes an outlaw. The
faithfulness to their money contracts
of a majority of Chinese in this coun-
try is often referred to by their apol-
ogists as proving that the race is
characterized by a childlike integrity,
but it really proves nothing of the
kind, because their commercial habits
are the result of the barbarous debtor
laws of their own country. They
keep their contracts, not from in
grained honesty, but from fear of a
law that makes the life of the insolv-
ent debtor a forfeit. A Chinaman
who will pay his debts with religious
fidelity will cheat or rob in other ways
without Scruple.

1T HAS been decided to change the
color of the uniform of the British
regular army from scarlet, which
they have always worn, to the Con-
federate gray. 1t appears to have
just been discovered, after an expert
ence of several hundred years, that
scarlet is too conspicuous a color to
wear into battle, for death loves a
shining mark" The attractions of
the color for rustic recruits is said to
be so great, however, as to offer great
temptations to enlistment, and for
this reason 1t is to be retained for pa
rade purposes, but in the field the sol
der gray will be used.
