Bolds said 'of the backsliding of lrishmen, and
the reason Ireland is not free. ] tried TO get 300
women wearing green, to wait upon the mayor
of New York, to ask that he call a monster meet
ing to advocate the release of ODonell Fail
ing in that, tried to organize 700 men to march
on to Washington and demand that the Govern
ment interfere But the men would not march.
They said was crazy to think of such thing.
What did they dol They raised fund, and
then waited until the man was hanged l tried
to get Pat Ford to cable King Alfonso, asking
him to interfere. He said it would be $l8
thrown away. l advised writing letters to the
crowned heads of Europe The letters were
never written. There are men plenty in Ireland
ready to follow ODonnell and Joe Brady, but
they do not get the support they ought here"
Arthur NJ. Forester, of Manchester England,
said Much that the woman says is blather,
and such talk ought forever be forbidden in
meeting. | know that the at home are
looking to you for support in this dynamite fight.
You must organize so that the men at home
may so brighten England with dynamite that
she will gladly release the hold she has on Ire
land. THIS is not to be done with explosions
heard in the back streets of London, but with
repeated blows that will cause continued panic.

questions of the day" This explanation of
his recent declinaton to allow his name to be
used as delegate at large from Kentucky, is
made for him in the New York Herald by Mr..
Nordhoff, and is copied into the Courier
Journal without dissent and with evident ap-
proval. The additional comment is made that
there are good many Democrats of Mr..
Watterson's mind just now; an increasing
number who will not expend enough in the
support of Democratic ticket, unless it shall
turn out to be really Democratic" From all
men of his thinking, will not support any
painted harlot of protection"

TAKING one consideration with another the
lot of England is not happy one. When the
first rumble of that earthquake was felt the
people must have thought that all the dyna-
mite in the kingdom had exploded at once.
We have not the slightest doubt that ODono-
van Rosa knew all about it in advance.
However, earthquakes in England, of the ma
ture of the one that occurred there yesterday,
are a serious matter. If England is to be
subject to such visitation, we shall have to re-
wise our theories of seisnology, and look out
for the earthquake in America, as a concomi-
lately have seemed to become permanent
feature in our meteorological system. S

The Chicago Tribune reports favorably
upon the operation of the Harper high-license
law. 1t says that wherever the Harper law
has been enforced it is working to the salts
faction of the people," that it has reduced the
number of saloons and that it has ''dimin-
ished, already, the volume of crime and mis-
cry and largely increased the revenues" One
city is named where sixty-fve saloons have
stopped business because of the law. The
Journal can but believe that if the total sup
preston of the saloons would be good thing
of which there will be no questionable sup
preston of sixty-fve out of one hundred and
forty saloons in any given locality is also a
good thing. At least, we are in favor of
measures which will reduce the number Of ga
looms, restrict the evils flowing from the drink
traffic, place it under better and stricter police
surveillance and COMPEL it to contribute to the
expense it entails

THE question of presidential electors is
again bothering the country. There is only
one safe course to pursue, and that is, to ap-
point no one an elector who holds any office
whatever, national, State or municipal. Sure
ly there ought to be found one man in each
congressional district who is absolutely and
completely private citizen, not even a notary
public or director in a national bank We
are not nation of officeholders yet. Let no
man be named for elector about whose eligibil-
ity there can be the shadow of dispute.

in the House providing for the appointment
of an additional judge of this Judicial circuit
According to our correspondent no secret is
made in Washington that should the bill pass
as is deemed certain, the position will be
rendered Judge Gresham, but not until near
the close of the present administration. The
bill is to permit Judge Drummond to remain
in Office, should he desire, as a sort of judge
emeritus, and to close up certain important
matters of which he has charge.
