Back From Ireland.

WASHINGTON, July s.-Michael Doran
arrived here from New York this morning,
after very pleasant return trip from Ire
land. Il had very quick and pleasant
trip both ways" he said to the GLOBE
correspondent, ssand am much pleased with
my visit to the old home. / had been alb
sent thirty years, and of course found but
few whom knew. Ireland has changed
nearly as much as Minnesota in
that time, but not in the SAME
direction. There are only half as many
people there now as when / left there. :"
Has the condition of the people there i'm
proved in the past year?" Il
think so. 1t is slowly iimprov-
ing. There seems some hopes that
they may get home rule there soon. As to
physical prosperity there is some hope for
improvement, as the farmers there
are now turning their attention
TO stock growing, which pays
them better than grain. They say they
can't compete with this country in growing
grain" ''HOw do you find the political sit
uatiOn here, Mr.. DOran, especially as re-
lates to Minnesota affairs?" Every salts
factory. l find that what appointments
have been made are exceedingly good ones,
and L presume they have been made as
rapidly as circumstances warrant. Ger
tainly we have no cause for complaint
about situation in Minnesota"
''HOw about Donnelly?" He has gone
home. He found he could do moth
ing here, and so went home.
He can do less there. They
know him there. He is beaten" d. A
Sullivan was to-day made postmaster at
Spring Valley. and J. C. Wise at MankatO.
The appointments in both cases are consid-
cred good. p. H.Kelly arrived tonight for
brief stay. He says things are going very
satisfactory in the way of appointments,
except that slight acceleratiOn of speed
would be acceptable. He remarks that
Mr.. Donnelly is down and will stay down.
