Financial Aid Not to be Withheld
From ParneIl.

CHICAGO, April 4.-Recent New York
dispatches, stating that there is trouble
brewing in the Irish National league and
that impatient Irish ''separationists''
threaten to withhold financial aid from Mr..
Parnell in case he does not labor for the
actual separation of Ireland from England,
have created no little stir in local Irish
circles. MI. Alexander Sullivan, who is
quoted in the dispatches as the real head Of
the Irish extremists, was seen yesterday
by reporter for the GLOBE and
questioned as 10 the probable truth of the
report that an agent of the extremists
had interviewed Mr. Parnell in the house of
commons and urged him to adopt measures
looking directly to separation. Mr.. Sullivan
said:
He did not believe any agent had been sent
to Mr.. Parnell to make threats of withhold
ing support from the Irish leader or to de-
mand any change of policy on Mr. Parnell's
part. He thought the cablegram alleging the
presence or such an agent carried its own
denial on its face. If the Irish people felt
ike serving notice that they were impatient
or delay and that they would resort to other
means II agitation was not successful. surely
they would not thre iten or censure Mr.. Par
nell. No one who is sane imagines that Mr.,
Parneli or MS associates should be RESPONSE
bic for the delay on the part of the English
government TO give Ireland justice. If such
threat as this alleged agent or messenger
is said TO have made were contemplated,
1t would be directed to the English govern.
ment, and not to Parnell or his party.
One might as well threaten to punish the poor
tenants of Ireland because landlords did not
treat them with humanity or justice as to
threaten withdrawal of support from Par
nell because the English government did not
grant home rule to Ireland. So far as he was
personally concerned Mr.. Sullivan said the
statement was manufactured out of whole
cloth. Last month at great inconvenience to
himself he went to Albany and Baltimore to
speak for the Irish National leagues parlla-
mentary fund. He would not, he said. be
making such trips were he not in hearty SYM
pathy with the Irish party program.

of bringing persons into the Ter ritory for any purpose whatever; that it shall be the duty of the Attorney General to bring suit to dissolve the said corporation and wind up its affairs
 In addition to these sweeping provisions. the bill also enacts that the powers of Justices of the Peace, who are at present all Mor- mons, shall be vested in Commis- sioners appointed by the Federal Courts of Utah, turns over the office of Sheriff, as we'll as the appointment of Deputies, to the United States Marshal, increases the power of Federal Commission CTS, and takes the control of edu- cation out of the hands of the Mormons by vesting it m Super intendent to be appointed by the Supreme Court It will be seen by the provisions we have quoted, as well as those subsequently, re- ferred to, that the new Edmunds bill, if it shall become law, will not interfere with the Mormons as a church, but it will strip the church of its present political power and domination of the in- ests of the Territory, with which DO church has any lawful concern. But, instead of dividing up the political authority in so many diff ferent ways, would it not be 8 simpler and more practical method to place the control of the Terri tory in the hands of five or six Commissioners to be appointed by the President, as was done in the District of Columbia, who shall have the right to select Sheriffs, Deputies, Justices, policemen and all the agents of the law, and ad- minister the affairs of the Terri tory m the interests of the whole people, who own the Territory? It seems as if such method would be more feasible than the some what cumbersome machinery sug- gested by Mir. Edmunds. His bill goes to the very root of the Mor- mon question, however, in strip ping the church of every vestige of political power and in breaking down the last supports by which the so-called saints have bolstered up their hideous institution of polygamy in defiance of law

For the past two weeks Mr.
 Peter Fish, of Chicago, Illinois, has been in Florence, looking over the valley and inquiring into it's resources. with view, if he found the conditions favorable, of taking out a large irrigating ditch from the Gila river, by which water would be conveyed onto the rich land south of Florence. MT. Fish is the agent of company formed in Chicago for the purpose of talk ing out this ditch, and he was sent out to view the ground and report to his associates. Mir. Fish was more than pleased with what he saw-in fact, was surprised at the outlook, and delighted with the climate, as when he left Chicago the thermometer was down below zero, while here he would not have been uncomfortable in his shirt sleeves. He started home Sunday, and will make favorable report and urge the immediate com mencement of the work. Mr.
 Fish expects to return in about three weeks, prepared to begir

One curious revelation of the last census was the growth of the female population of She large cities. It was shown that New York contains about 25,000 more women than men; Boston had a surplus of 1S,000 women; in Bal timore there are 1000 more wo- men than men, and so on in several other of the large Eastern cities. Fifty years ago 1t was the men who came to the cities to pursue their careers, while the women stayed at home; but more recently women, both in this country and in Europe, have been crowding to the business centers.

When 1t is understood that a pair of good mules will bring from S700 to $500 at any time, it is difficult to see why the raising of these animals is not more exten- sively indulged in. The demand for mules is always good, and their raising would prove more lucra- tive business than that of raising horses.

 The Fl Paso Tribune sneers at the idea of bloodhounds being of practical utility in pursuit of hos- tile Indians. Greene is of the opinion that the Apaches would make short work of them even should they overtake the rena- gades. This objection is frivolous and constitutes no argument against the employment of these dogs as trailers. The life of single human being is of more value than the lives of all the bloodhounds in the country. Had they been employed in the present campaign ambuscades like that into winch Lieut.. Fountain fell would not have been possible. The hounds would have discovered the presence of the hostiles long before the latter could have got in their murderous fire, and thus there would have been chance for that officer and his men to give the concealed Apaches complete rout. Even though one or more of the dogs might have been killed in making the discovery, the lives of the men following would not have been lost. Let us have bloodhounds by all means and the Apaches will be trailed to the death. Silver City Enterprise.

A Colorado man who expected g gang of lynchers to come for him about the middle of the night, took himself to the cellar, leaving a pet grizzly bear in his place in bed. The lynchers didn't bring any lights, but made very plucky attempt to get the bear out and lynch it, but gave it up after three of them had lost an eye apiece, two had suffered the loss of thumbs, chewed off, and the other six were more or less deprived of skin.

The Health of Dallas.

The greatest blessing in this world
il health. Especially is it fortunate
thing to live in city that is healthy
The climate cannot always be judged
by the health of city, for 1t may be
SO foul and filthy that the heallhiesi
climate in the world would become
sickly, and its inhabitants sicken and
die from the effects of this very foul
ness. Dallas is in naturally healthy
climate. and the fact that there have
been but two deaths out OF 10000
people since last Wednesday morning
is evidence of the cleanliness of the
city. 1t iea remarkable circumstance
at this time of year that there have
been but two deaths in six days in
city of 10000 people. We doubt il
there is another city in all the country
that can show such Gear death
record. Healthy localities are what
people arc looking for, aud if they can
secure such a place, with all the adj
vantages of business, education and
everything else that goes to make up
happiness, health and prosperity, Dali
las stands out to the front most
prominently. 1t should be very graft
flying to this people, who have labored
early and late to push Dallas onward,
to feel that in every way this wide
awake city is in snch healthy condi-
ton.
