c~apitsl. and ell statutes on this subject
should recognize the care of the State for
honest toll, and be framed with the view
Of improving the condition ct working
men. A proper care for the workingmen
IA insepsrably connected with the in
tegrity Of our institutions, and none OF
onr citizens are more interested than they
in guarding against any corrupting infiu-
ences which seek to prevent the beneficent
purposes Of our Government, and none
should be more wstcbful OF the artful
Vaccinations Of those who allure them to
self-inficted injury. In a free country
the cur tailment Of absolute rights OF in
diyiduals should only be such as are es-
sentisl to the peace and good order OF the
community" The limit between proper
subjects OF governmental control, and
those which can be more ittingly left to
moral sense and self-imposed restraints OF
citizens, should be carefully kept in view.
Thus, laws that unnecessarily interfered
with the habits aud customs Of any OF our
people, which are not offensive to the
moral sentiments of the civilized world,
and which are consistent with good citi-
zenship and public welfare, are unwise
and yexatious.
The Of the nation, to 8 great
extent, determines its supremacy. Cheap
and easy transportation should, therefore,
be literally fostered within the units OF
the Constitution. The General Govern
ment should SO improve aud protect it's
natural waterways, as will enable the
producers of the country to reach a profit

The selection and retention OF subord-
mates in Government employment should
depend upon their ascertained fitness and
value of their work, and they should be
neither expected nor allowed TO do ques-

people will be better protected, the esti-
mate of public labor and duty will be i'm
mensely improved. and public employ
ment will be open to all who demonstrate
their fitness to enter it. The unseemly
scramble for place under the government,
with the consequent importantly which

Advancement of Ireland's Cause.
Boston, Aug. 20.-At the Parker House
yesterday, Mrs. Parnell held a conference
with a number of Catholic bishops and
leaders of the Irish National League, con-
corning the means by which the coming
political contest in this country could be
turned to the advancement of Ireland's
cause. It is understood that Mrs. Parnell
represented her son at the conference.
Mrs. Parnell submitted the details of a
scheme for the benefit Of Irish home in
dustry, which she stated was conceived by
her son. and its being put into practical
execution. Parnell, she said. had formed
an association in England and Ireland
Of capitalists and manufacturers, who
aim to encourage home industry
in Ireland. This association proposed
to establish factories for the
exclusive manufacture of Irish goods,
such as could not be manufactured in En-
gland or other countries, including such
articles as laces. linens, ~friezes, woolens
and tweeds, and preparations are already
in progress for the establishment of such
factories in different parts of Ireland.
Mrs. Parnell made the suggestion, coming
as from her son, that the proposition would
be submitted to the Republican and Dem
ocratic parties, the acceptance OF which
by either would decide for which party
the organized Irish vote would be cast.
Mrs. Parpell stated that as these Irish
goods could not be made in this country
their importation would moi conflict with
American home industry. inasmuct
as the association in England proposed
to exclusively control the production. Mr..
Parnells proposition, therefore, was, thai
q direct offer be submitted to the political
parties Of the United States as follows:
II. in accordance with the friendly feeling
expressed towards Ireland in America, by
Americans, one OF the political parties will
incorporate q plank in its platform IL
favor of admitting goods of Irish manu-
~facturers free of duty, specifying such
goods 81 cannot be manufactured elsewhere
than ireland, and the importation OF which
will not compete with American produc'
tions. then such party will receive the or
gsnized support Of Irishmen in America.
Mrs. Parnell leaves for New York to-day te
take the preliminary steps toward the or
ga~nization Of Irish interests, 80 that in
case Of action by either Of the leading
political parties. the promises contained il
the proposition can be fulfilled. During
