The Irish aR.nter., I'm Australia.

! ''The Ranters" is what the people at
home used to call that class of Soupers
who went about the country trying to
inoculate the Catholic Irish with their
English Soupish heresy. The Irish
political ranters of the present day are
just as active as the Soupers of old-as
active trying to persuade the Irish peo-
pie that their bodies salvation can be
won by trusting to the mercy of Eng
lands parliament, and they travel the
earth to preach this nonsense and drivel

We print to-day letter from Mr.. Nor

AWAKE fellow-wofkmen, and dream 70 No
more
OF the rights that you wish OF the wronss
ye abhor;
Shake oil that restraint which hath long
wrapped the mind,
And boldly demand what in justice Is thine.
Think not though we long have bean slaves
to the will
OF those who have gained BY our hDor ana
skill,
That we'd be indebted to them in the least,
Though our work hours were fewer, on wages
increased.
Reflect for moment how life passes BY
With those on whom alone nations rely,
And Just indignation shall start In your
breast
To think those most essential are those most
oppressed.
Respect, thanks or comfort are never be-
slowed
On those who through life drag the heaviest
load;
But spurned with contempt by the rich and
the vain,
Who have naught but what's bought by suI
labor and pain.
Absurd is the system that those who procure
All the means of enjoyment are the same
who endure
All the hardships, the troubles, the care and
the strife,
And never enjoy what they toll for in life.
While others will squander and lavish away
In an hour, what many will slave for a day,
(Till hope becomes vanished or shrouded In
gloom
There are millions who find no repose but
the tomb.
Arise and declare for the time that's to come
Ye shall make your own rules, with the
sanction of none,
But those who delight, with hearts honest
and true,
To give unto merit its honor and due.
. We ask only that which is truly our own,
Nor seek we to add to this fair world groan.
But spread that loved freedom by nature de
signed,
To bless with contentment the lives of man
kind.

The gospel which the workingmen
need-which all men need-is the gospel
of Justice. This is one of the founda-
ton stones of the gospel of Christ. To
talk about aims while the people are
fraudulently kept out of what is their

labor wants no lordly patronage. 1t re-

All drunkAfdS are drinkers, but It

no doubt upon the subject. For the

On the 18th instant n bill WAS re-
ported 10 the House Of Representa-
tiyes from the Cotnntittes on Pacific
Railroads, of which Cassidy of this
state Is chairman, to amend several
Pacific railroad acts. II requires the
coin panies To file, within ninety days
from the passage OF the Act, or within
sixty days after the completion ofthe
surveys, list ofthe selecliou. OF land
claimed by them, and 70 deposit the
cost of surveying, selecting and con-
veying the same.
The tirst question was taken on an
amendment offered BY Payson TO ole
offered by Hanback,. Hanback's was
that all lands embraced in the notice
to be given by the Secretary OF the In
terror to the railroad company 10 take
it's patents, shall be subject to State,
Territorial aid municipal taxation
after sixty days from the date OF notice.
Payson's was that lien of the United
States for the cost and expenses OF sur
veying shall not be effected by the
sale of lands. Payson's amendment
was adopted, and then Hanback's as
amended Was also adopted. Crisp de-
manded the yeas and nays on the
amendment, declaring II was the
abandonment OF the security which
the Government had in these lands.
The vote by yeas and nays resulted,
yeas W, nays SO. So the amendment
was agreed TO. A vote was then taken
on Payson's substitute for the bill as
amen ded. 1t provides that 1.-THE rail
road com panies shall not within sixty
days after the receipt OF notice pay
the costs OF surveying tho land, then
their right to such land shall cease,
aud the.lands shall he restored to the
public domain for settlement under
the homestead laws. The substitute
was agreed to and the bill In that
shape wAs passed.

CONTRACTS IN THE STATE PRISONS.

SEEKING TO ANTICIPATE THE WORK OF THE
COMMISSION.
[FRoM THE REGULAR CORRESPONDENT TRIBUNE.
ALBANY. Feb. 19.-The present Legislature is
showing an amazing compliance with the demands
of the noisy faction that has given itself the absurd
name of The Worklngmen's Party" Last week
the Senate after only two days debate passed bill
prohibiting the making of any more contracts for
the labor of convcts in the State Prisons. Every
one was surprised at this action because only the
week before a bill had become a law which
authorized the Governor to appoint commission
to investigate the contract labor system. The COM
mission was appointed and was about to go to work.
The chief duty of the commission was to learn
whether the contract system ought to be abol-
ished-yet here was the Senate anticipating their
report by passing bill ending summarily that
system. Worse action followed Senator COM
stock, the author of the bill and Senator Baker, who
had earnestly favored it in the Senate joined with tho
Labor Reformers in determined effort to get the
Assembly to take immediate action on the bill.
The Assembly Committee on State Prisons was
fairly mobbed to report the bill favorably at once
Mr.. Howe, the chairman of the Committee and the
author of the Prison Commission law, sturdily re-
sisted the movement. He SAID that it would be
absurd for the Legislature to take action on the
subject after passing law creating an expensive
management. Still the pressure on the Committee
continues and the Labor Reformers are threatening
to move that the Committee on State Prisons DO
discharged from the further consideration of the bill.
1t is understood that Senator Constock is pushing
the bill to the favor of the " wOrkingmen"
of Troy. Senator Baker is pushing the bill TO earn
the gratitude of the "wOrkingmen" of Rochester.
But in the remainder of Monroe County the vote
was decsvely against the abolition of the contract
labor system.
DEBATE OVER THE APPROPRIATION BILL
In the Assembly to-day there another notable
instance of the cringing of the Legislature TO tho
"workingmen" The Assembly Committee on
Ways and Means increased the salary of David ,
Healy, Secretary of the Bureau of Labor Statistics
from 81 200 to s. 800. Mr.. Healy is prominent
member of the Trades Assembly now the leading
workingmeD'so organization in this state.
Assemblyman HOoley. another prominent member
of the Trades Assembly, enthusiastically favored
the increase In his opinion Mr.. Healy ought to be
paid $1,000. He thought the State Entom0loglst
who was politely called q" bug catcher" was over
paid when he received $4,000. So also was 81 AS
w. Burt. the Chief Examiner of the Civil Service
Commission, when he received $4,000. All that
Mr.. Burt did, in MIR. HOOleys opinion, was to keep
honest wOrkngmen out of office. Moreover Mr.
Healy was poor and needed the money.
In the emu the Assembly agreed TO the increase in
Mr. Heay's salary to 81 800. The Appropriation
bill was then passed without further amendment.
1t approprates $6650,0O0
