If it should be found, after careful
trial thereof, that any form or system of
government or society fails to maintain
the rights of man, then it is not only the
right but the most sacred duty of the
whole people to alter or abolish the said
system by any and all possible means.

Mark her as, firm and unerring, she scars far,

This is what Scotchman Hume says in
the fourth chapter of his history about
that system which landlordism and En-
glishmen maintain at the point of the
sword in Ireland to-day:
4The Duke of Normany's first inva-
sion of the island (England) was hostile;
his subsequent administration was en-
tirely supported by arms; in the very
frame of his laws he made distinction
between the Normans and the English to
the disadvantage of the latter; he acted
in everything as absolute master over
the natives, whose interest and affections
he totally disregarded. Scarce any Of
those revolutions which both in history
and common language have always been
denominated eonquests appear equally
violent, or were attended with so sudden
an alteration both of power and prop
erty. The Normans and other foreign
ers who followed the standard of Will
liam, having totally subdued the natives
pushed the right of conquest to the ut
most extremity against them. 1t would
be difficult to find in all history a reyo-
luton more destructive or attended with
more complete subsection ofthe inhab-
itants. Contumely seems to have been
wantonly added to oppression, and the
natives were universally reduced to such
state of meanness and poverty that the
English name became term of reproach
and several generations relapsed before
one family of Saxon pedigree was raised
to any considerable honors."
This is the system to which English
men attorned this is the system to
which Irishmen, through seven hundred
years of blood and slaughter never at:
torned. II, EE
1t brought in England, to quote En-
glishman Spelman, "such fruits and de-
Tendencies, such hardships and services,
as were never known to other nations
What has it brought about among the
1rishmen of to-day? Read the state
ments of the bishop of Toronto.

says: Nothing proves more strongly the
detestation in which the people of Eng.
land held feudal oppression, than that

feudal guarantee of land, is now synony.
nous with slave; villain, which once
meant only an innocent, inoffensive
bondsman, denotes person destitute of
every honorable and moral principle"
Hargraye: "The system produced moral
debasement'equivalent to the political
degradation it inflicted; and though
villain meant nothing more than bond
man or laborer, it became afterward ex-
pressiye of moral turpitude, from the
vices which the system necessarily en-
genders in its victims" IT'D
This is the system from which Irish
men will ultimately free themselves
despite all the arts of canting English
tyrants and canting Irish slaves; and if
dynamite can be made an abdul agent
in the liberation. dynamite we hail.

The right Of private property can
justly be based upon no principle except
that having been produced by the per

SCISSOR having rendered for it the full
equivalent to the one who did produce
it. This rule can have no exceptions
save those created by the unanimo us
consent of all members of society.
The Labor enquirer., 1884-01-19

Debt, profit, interest, rent and the COM

degradation and tyaranny, and cancers

present methods of furnishing crime

The Fourth at PantOn,

a not large. but goOd-natured and live
ly crowd gathered at the Corners at an
early hour and began the celebration i'm
noisy manner, loading so heavily as TO
break some windows in the blacksmith
shop. The potato race in the forenoon,
for the small boys for small money, was
very exciting and afforded considerable
sport. There were races for BOYS of diff
ferent sizes. so as to give them all a
chance. The address by Hon. Geo. w.
Grandey, native of this town. and who
delivered an address to the people here
fifty years ago under more fattering cir
cumstances and to larger audience, was
given in the Baptist church. 1t was as
good an Grafton AS was delivered i'm Yer
mont July 18th, 1854. After the address
came sumptuous repast, spread in the
grove of Hiram Kent. Then Jim Barnes,
the one-legged veteran from Westport
n. Y, sang Marching through Geor-
gia," accompanied by good strong Pan
ton chorus. z. c. Dayfoot sang TOO
far from Canada" and made some ap-
propriate remarks. Another song was
sung by Jim Barnes and Plattsburgh
by Lyman Grandey. Mr.. Barnes sang a
song composed in the cars while the

Towsley, Allen Beach and others made
brief speeches, after which Gen. Gran
dey in happy manner thanked the YER
monters from York State for their rare
and rich entertainment, and alluded to the
great men of New York who were Yer
monters, and also to the pride Yer
mont took in Vermonters. In the
evening there was a display of fire
works and dance at the store. Much
disappointment is expressed by peo-
pie in adjoining towns because they
could learn nothing from nobody |"

nished: and, indeed, it was governed by
chance, for which the people of Panton
feel deep regret. X,
