COMMODORE PERRY OWENS Is the peoples candidate for Sheriff. He has been a resident of Apache County for some six or eight years past, and during that time has made for himself such name and character among his fellow citizens that the Convention at Wins!ow, with unanimous voice forced him from the retirement of his own modesty and placed the banner of the ticket in his hands. The tax payers of tine County now have an opportunity to place in position such an officer as will fairly and squarely represent them.

HE " lLStON OOlNelltIOn Ndo by universal consent accepted as the arbiter of political differences agitating the County. The people have met in solemn assembly and through represe natives made known their wishes and 1t now re- mains for all good citizens to earn estly unite in giving the action of the Convention substantial en- dorsement.
 The common good demands unanimity in word and act. The campaign promises to be conducted with energy and zeal and we can only hope for success as a reward for unceasing labor and solid un- broken front.
 Two tickets are now in the field and the lines have been drawn and  the issue made.
 The "People's Ticket, represents the conservative, law-abiding tax paying element of the County and presents list of candidates who have received the endorsement and must command the support of the voters. Reform in the administra- tion of County affairs has by uni versal consent been accepted as the key note of the Campaign; a total change demanded in the personnel of officials, the demand has been met and the call answered
 A political ticket must be the re- suit of a compromise and mutual concessions, personal opinion and preference must be made subser- vient to the accomplishment of the general purpose.
 . In the nature of things some disappointments must follow and pet schemes and favorites be aban- doned. It is the highest evidence of good citizenship to exhibit a hearty and graceful acquiescence in the wishes of the majority and when the will of the people is eX- pressed to extend generous and unstinted support. We have ex- pressed a desire for reform, total and radical change and now we must prove our faith by our works.
 "A house divided against itself must fall" We hope and trust there will be no sore heads and grumblers. We cannot all be off ccrs, and in that we have taken our chances, let us accept the issue in good faith and prove by a patriotic loyalty, we are actuated by an hon. est unselfsh desire to redeem the County and purify the walks of off cial life. Vote the straight ticket, and only remember you are work ing for tho salvation of your County.

The student of social science will find things to interest him in San Francisco. One wonders that there should be II reg ular nominations for mayor, which with the six state tickets make the San Fran cisco voter an object of pity. The ethno- logical character of the Golden Gate may account for the dismal confusion into which politics is plunged this year The total registration of San Franclsco this year is 49, ,669. Of these 6396 were born in the state. There are more foreign born voters on the lists this year than native born, 10, ,2O6 being Irish and 7052 German. Of the native born voters every southern state is represented, but their total is not equal in numbers to the 2805 from Massachusetts.

l Hans s. Beattie, the surveyor of the port of New York, was shot in his office at 1 the custom house on Monday afternoon 1 by Louis BieraI, an ex-inspe0kor. Two or l three shots were fired. Snfveyor Beattie said the prisoner was removed from his post of inspector on his recommendation, as he had illegally taken money from an immigrant girl. The surveyor was sitting at his desk when his door was thrown open and the prisoner entered with pistol in his hand. He fired three shots, two of which took effect, one through the heshy part of the surveyors left hand, while the other struck in the groin, glancing in an inward and upward direction. This ball has not yet been extracted. Alter the fir ino the prisoner ran ont of the building, and was captured near the cotton exchange.
 He was perfectly calm, admitted the shoot- ing, and added that he did 1t because Beat tie refused to listen to the men who went to him to appeal for his reinstatement. He added that he did not take any money from the immigrant girl, as charged. The surveyor has been taken to his home, and his injuries are not considered serious.

Lacemaking in Limerick.

Limerick gloves have disappeared,
though Sir Peter TAFT made every ef-
fort to re-establish the manufacture ;
and Limerick lace, we are happy to OBJ
serve, is sought to be restored by Hon.
Mrs. O'Brien. of Old Church, an ac-
comp]ished English lady who, in this
instance, is more Irish than the Irish
themselves. There are several impor-
tant and interesting works on lace
making, including Mrs. Bury PalHsser's
charming History of Lace,'' with it's
wonderful illustrations. and Mrs. Bee
toms book Of needleWork. These are
treasures to those who have an affec-
tion for an art in which the workers Of
Limerick have excelled and from which
may be drawn many suggestions and
particulars which are usually hidden
from the casual observer. Miss Nor-
man of Rutland street, Limerick, has
Of late been one of the few who have
done zealously in relation to one of the
most exquisite and beautiful of local
manufactures, which must always be in
fashion. The older the lace, like old
silver, the more valuable, and the more
carefully worked the more destined to
live out long years in unfading beauty,
and there is lace worth more than it's
weight in gold. 0 .

Historic Cromleoh.

On road leading from Boyle to
Lough Cara there stands one Of the
largest Cromlechs in Ireland, the table
stone being remarkably large, and at
one time supported on five pillars. One
of these were destroyed about 100 years
ago, but the rest are as good as ever.
The town of Boyle end its surroundings
present as much food for the pen of the
historical writer, perhaps, as any town
of similar dimensions in Ireland. There
is not the least doubt but many good
old legend and many hair-breadth es-
cape could be recounted of the men
who are past and gone, and whose gen
erations to-day, living in the same hal
lowed spot, are conducting an uphill
fight against long odds in the cause OF

Ancient Vestments Preserved at the Cathe
dral of Waterford.

uTal OF WatoT1OrQ.
The copes, dalmatics, and vestments
presented by Pope Innocent III. to the
Cathedral in 1918 are still in good
state of preservation. Some years ago
these magnificent robes were used by
the officiating ecclesiastics on Easter
Saturday and i'll the Rogation Day pro-
cessions, but latterly they are preserved
in the treasury chest in the sacristy.
The copes are five i'll number, they are
four feet in depth, and six in length,
and when placed across the shoulders
meet gracefully in front. Three OF the
copes are Of crimson and two of green
velvet, and are almost entirely covered
with gold embroidery, which. after the
lapse Of so many ages, is still brightand
splendid, though in some respects
worn. a broad band of highly-6nished
needlework, representing various parts
of scripture history, occupies the OUT
ward sides OF the copes.

The Penal Laws in Mayo.

The Penal Laws were enacted for the
determination ef the Catholic religion.
''Papists were not supposed to exist i'll
Ireland,'' the priest-hunters were let
loose to run to earth Popish priests and
schoolmasters and in that dark time
there was no more hated name than
that of John Bingham of Castlebar IAN
eestor of the Earl Of Lucan), Governor
Of Mayo and one Of it's representatives
in Parliament. He was most ac
tive and merciless in putting the
Popery depressing laws into force. He
it was who bounded on the notorious
priest-hunter, John Malowney, or
Shawn-na-S -Soggarth. Among his other
cruel acts, tradition credits him with
having fogged Catholic laborer to
death for refusing to work on Sunday.
His character as a politician was no
less repulsiva. Ir che Irish House Of
Coursons he was merely the servile
tool of the Government, witness the
contemptuous lampoon flung at him by
satlrlSt OF the perlOd, 1886 supposed TO
be the witty Dean Swift who says. de-
scribing the House of Commons -, :
''There behold the tribe of Bingham,
For he never fails to bring em;
While he sleeps the whole debate,
They submissive round him wait;
Yet would gladly see the hunks
In his grave. and search the trunks;
See they gently twitch his coat
Just to yawn and give his vote
Always firm in his vocation
Tor the court against the nation"
But this brutal old fogy was but one
of many petty tyrants, who did all in
their power to barbarize and stamp out
the Irish. There are in the Ireland Of
today men Of the same kidney as the
hated Bingham.
