BODY OF HIGH CHARACTER.
st. Louis Republican.
The dynamite wing of American Irish agi-
tators were given the cold shoulder through
out, as the published proceedings show.
ODonovan Rosa has sung very small during
the entire meeting. The convocation has
been styled the parliament of a people with
out a country, but whittier with or withOuta
country it has been body of high character,
and composed of men and women of fervent
and glowing love of the land from which
they sprang.
RoUT OF THE DYNAMITERs.
New York Tribune.
Irishmen the world over are to be heartily
congratulated upon the results of the Phila-
deiphia conventions. The proceedings have
been orderly and harmonious. the speeches
have been in the main temperate and reason
able, and the spirit and action OF these repre-
sentative bodies indicate a return to habits
of soberness and steadiness on the part of
the Irishmen of America. The dy-
Mantle braggarts and the confederates of
asSassns were meager minority, and il they
were not wholly silenced they were utterly
voice in the determining councils of either
convention.
THE TRIUMPH OF A CLIQUE.
New York Herald.
With the abandonment of all the principles
of constitutional agitation disclosed by the
disarmament of the Land League and the
election of Alec Sullivan to the leadership,
instead of man after the pattern of Parnell,
the cause of Ireland yesterday was stabbed in
tine house of those who should have be-
friended it. The men who composed the con-
venton have virtually decided that right
eous cause can be served by cowardiy and I'M
righteous methods. Every honest lover of
human rights and human liberty must feel
resentment that both were so betrayed by
Irish-Americans to further the ambition of
an uadeservine clique of secret plotters.
NOTHING PRACTICAL ACCOMPLISHED.
Chicago Tribune.
The convention, in short, wasted no time
in considering ways and means of arriving at
the greatest attainable measure of reform
and good government for Ireland 1t did not
descend to the practical either in its deliber-
ations or its enunciatons,a and it is to be feared
that the gathering at Philadelphia will not
be of much benefit to the Irish in Ireland.

An Interesting Incident.

New York Tribune's Report.
The hall was dimly lighted and the shad-
ows lurked in the corners and the work of
the day was done. Mr.. Sullivan, of Chicago
stood up from his chair and asked the vast
assembly TO sing God Save Ireland" At
the same time the mother of Parnell ad
vanced for the second time to the edge of the
platform, bearing in her hands the green ban
ner of her country; from the opposite side
Mrs Diggs, of New York, advanced bearing
the Stars and Stripes The convention
seemed mad with enthusiasm. The flags were
crossed over the bust of Washington and
waved above the laurel crown. great
shout arose. Priests and lawyers and
farmers from distant States stood on
the benches and cheered, the tears start
ing from their eyes with Joy and pride, as
the shadows fell deeper and twilight dark
ened. The song swelled loud and long:
God save Ireland, cried the heroes;
God save Ireland, cried they all.
Whether ON the scaffod high
Or the battlefield we die,
What matter if for Erin dear fall.
The Irish heart was touched and again and
again the chorus was repeated. The shouts
for Mrs Parnell grew deafenng. Mrs. Par
nell stood silently waving to and fro the Irish
flag. The Ladies' League pressed forward
The men who controlled the convention, sit
ting on the platform, rose from their seats
and shouted in the chorus. The volume of
sound swelled down the broad stairs and at
tracted the attention of the passers-by ON the
street. The men seated in the Academy close
by stopped their work and listened. Then
the song ceased the flags were furled, and
the convention of the Irish race IN America
was declared adjourned.

gently toward her carriage At this moment
Sullivan, without any warning turned and
shot Hannaford dead. Then the three leaped
into their carriage and drove away, Hanna
ford expired in the arms of his wife. The
city was at once in an uproar. Sullivan de-
ivered himself up, and the police were kept
on guard and no one was allowed to see
him, for fear that he would either be shot or
hung. He was tried twice. The Roman
Catholics were stirred up by Suilivan's
friends, and as the trial proceeded every
effort was made to arouse sectarian preju-
dice. The most distinguished lawyers were
employed to defend the prisoner. On his
first trial the jury disagreed, on the second
he was acquitted; but for long while, when
ever he appeared on the street, he was fol-
lowed and hooted at, He is probably now,
among the American population, the most
thoroughly noted man in the city OF Chicago.
KNOCKING OUT THE GRAccHI.
New York Tribune.
Mr.. Alexander Sullivan has been hitherto
an obscure individual. Not even the re-
flected greatness of his Boston namesake had
ever illumned him when he made his first
appearance on any stage, yesterday, at the
Irish National Convention, and introduced
Mrs. Parnel as "a greater than the mother of
theGracchi." The name caused little EN- bar
rassment among his hearers, but it was de-
cided that the Gracchi must be british
minions," and the announcement was met
with tremendous applause" Mr.. Sullivan
then proceeded to unbosom himself OF
speech which neither of the Gracchi could
ever have hoped to initiate. He proved HIM
self "a greater than the Gracchi, and taking
it all around it was very cold day for the
Gracchi family.

REPUDIATION.

The New York Sun suggests a way out
of the trade-dollar middle, and says:
"As is we'll known. there are millions on
millions of the Bland dollars stacked
away in the Treasury vaults at Wash
ington, of no use to anybody, and with
no means of being put into circulation,
as they are not needed. If the thirty
or more million of trade dollars are with.
drawn from the circulation, room will be
made for the same number of good ones.
Let the Treasurer receive the trade dol.
lars, and give good ones in exchange for
them, the person desiring to make the
exchange paying the cost of t~ransporta-
ton both ways, which would be less than
n per cent"
This is practically reputation. Those
who have received trade dollars at par
are entitled to receive par value for them.
The United States Government cannot
afford to repudiate.

A eALLOws CELEBRATION.

As a rule a hanging in a family is an
event that the descendants of the hanged
like to forget, but this is not the case
with the descendants of Rebecca Nurse,
who was hanged as a witch near Salem,
Mass, in 1892. They held their picnic on
Wednesday last that they had been pre-.
pairing for. They feel no shame in Re.
becca's fate, for she is described as "a
beloved and respected matron, known
everywhere for her beautiful domestic,
social and religious life. She was a mem.
Der of the first church, and esteemed by
all of her associates there" The Treas
urer of the association reported that
1925 had been raised toward a monu-
ment, and it was hoped that by next
year sufficient funds would be secured
to proceed with the work.

CHNLERA.

CHAVhh6RA |
The cholera alarm is spreading all over
Europe, aud there are good reasons to
fear that the dreadful scourge itself may
spread as widely. 1t has already travelled
from its source in the Orient, and a few
pronounced cases have been developed in
the great city Of London. We need
have no fear Of the terrible scourge Oh
this side Of the Atlantic this season, but
We have to apprehend that the seeds of
the disease will terminate next year
where the cold weather stops it this
Fall, in the late Spring or early Summer,
and that the plague in following its line
of travel around the globe will reach the
cities of the Atlantic sea-board before
frost falls in the Autumn Of 1884. To
forestall the effects Of such . visitation,
which may be reasonably looked for,
every sanitary precaution should be
tried. As for ourselves, away out here
in the mountains, we need hardly be dis
turbed by any apprehension of personal
harm. The cholera usually confines
itself to large cities and the thoroughfare
of travel. It may follow the line of the
transcontinental railways, and if so, it is
not unlikely that A. case or two of the
plague may break out in any town not
very remote from the zone limiting its
infection. 1t will be remembered how
emigrants ..ossine the plains were at
tackled by the cholera and died by hun
dreds along the route. The horrid con-
tagion also followed the crowd that weni
from the States to Pixies Peak at the
time Of the mining excitement in that
section, and pursued them, telling vic
Tins right along in the fiat and pursuing
them high up into the mountains. There
is no use in getting scared, but it is good
wholesome policy to expect the plague
and be prepared for it all over thu
United States . year hence. Cleanliness
is the great preventive. As far as posi-
BILE the air should be kept free from i'm
purities, such as arise from defectivs
sewerage, while, also, habits of bodily
cleanliness (which is next to Goodness
should not be underestimate.

The New York Times, under date Of July
25, says: The special press service Of the
Western Union is growing constantly
worse, SO far as the Times is concerned,
instead of better. Not only are the delays
in transmission entirely unreasonable, but
the dispatches when received are in such a
chaotic state, so badly written and 80 full
of inexcusable blunders, that it is almost
impossible to rectify them, as for example
the dispatches from Rochester giving the
substance Of the crop reports OF tie Nation
al Millers' Association, in which the
s~hrinkage Of wheat, as compared with 1882,
was given at 10, 76O, 700 bushels, when the
figures should have been 107, 607, 900 bush
els. On the same night an important
statement was omitted entirely from q
Washington dispatch. Last night an ope-
rator wrote George Fourteenth" for
''George Fourth" and another Of Gould's
hopeful students mixed up the pages Of his
copy SO badly that when delivered it was
in a mess which would have puzzled the
whole executive committee of the company.
These are q few examples of the hundreds
Of vexatious blunders which the Western
Union people are now imposing upon the
Times and other patrons.

INTERNAL


The internal revenue system Of this
country was adopted in 1863, and has
been in force 20 years. During the first
years of its operations, says the st. Louis
Republican. the product Of the several
taxes wa comparatively small; but as
the system was perfected, the product
increased enormously. and as the country
became accustomed to the excise, its
effects almost ceased to be felt. In the
first year the whisky tax yielded So. &c.,
600; 0 it yields $40. DOC. 900. In 1868
tobacco yielded So, 200, 600; in 1881 it
yielded $42, S54, 900. The yield Of the
fermented liquor tax has in like manner
increased from 81, CPS, 600 to Sl3, 700, 900.
The figures show further that, with no
change in the tax rate, in q series OF
years, the increase in the revenue is
about 10 per cent. doubling every 10
years.
The aggregate amounts derived from
the three articles-spirits, tobacco and
beer, respectively. in the whole 20 years,
are: From spirits, 1910, 900, 600; from
tobacco, 1928, 600, 600; from beer, $l72.-
O0O, 900; total, ST. 40. 600. 900. If all
the proceeds Of the excise or these arti-
cles had been applied to the reduction Of
the present debt, that debt to-day would
be $477, 600, 600 less Than it is; instead of
being 81, 2O5, 600, 900 it would be only
SIPS, 900. 600.
But even this does not tell the whole
truth. 1t gives only the products of the
three most important taxes in our inter-
nal revenue system. If to the 81, 770,-
DOC. 600, yielded by spirits, tobacco and
beer, we add the aggregate revenue de.
rived in the 20 years from banks, bank.
ers, stamps and penalties 1926, OOO, 0O0),
the sum is increased to 81, 055, 900, 600,
and if we further add the aggregate
product Of taxes ON other articles and
occupations once taxed, but taxed no
longer, 81. LAG. 900. 0o0), we have the
enormous sum Of g, 209. 900. 000-enough
to have paid of the National debt
entirely and left S4O0. 600. 900 over.
The internal revenue system is not
what it was ct the beginning. It has
been RACED. modified and perfected, till
now il contains only three subjects Of
taxation, but these three are the most
important ones and possess the largest
revenue.yielding capacity. These three
articles yielded last year enough to pay
the entire cost Of the Government and
1000, 900 ovsr-showing that, if need
be. the Government could be supported
by the taxes on spirits. tobacco and beer
alone.
