BRITISH OPPRESSION.

Once again our columns are burdened
with the story of riot and bloodshed in
| Ireland, and at the infamous city of Bel
fast, where SO many men, women and
children have suffered of late at the hands
of a cowardly mob. As has been the case
heretofore, religious bigotry is at the bot
tom of the trouble, and the authorities
are powerless to prevent the fighting.
The Orangemen have again assumed the
offensive, and the minority of Catholics
must stand the punishment because, for
sooth, the police are powerless. How
like mockery of the poor people this
sounds, when the proceedings of yester-
day in the Commons are read. A
Government that can send thousands of
constables and troops to turn the invalid
pauper out to die in the streets at the be-
hest of cruel landlord, cannot find suf-
ficient force to keep these devils of
bigotry and intolerance from their cruel
slaughter of innocent and helpless peo-
pie. Churchill's policy is outlined in
these things, and that it is one of oppres-
sion by which to make coercion neces-
sary, no one can doubt, who watches its
workings, but the heart is palled with
fear and apprehension when it realizes
how desperate, bloody and terrible will
be the outcome ofsuch an unholY course,
in the reprisals these downtrodden and
outraged people will be driven to make.
They have been bounded as beasts for
years, and now it cannot be wondered
at if the Catholic people of Ireland
act like beasts, and revel in the blood of
those who have driven humanity's SEM
blance out of their hearts and out of
their lives, by a systematic oppression,
compared to which the government of
the Russian Cars of old, was pleasant.
While it was possible to appease the out
ragged feelings oil Irishmen, the press of
the United States has counseled forbear-
ance, but in the light of these continued
barbarous starvings, murders and evic-
tions. it looks as if the food-gates of the
wrath of the people of Ireland will be
loosed, and then the world will stagger
at the contemplation of the deeds of blood
that must ensue.

THE COLORED MAN.

The status OF the colored man, since
the day that made Abraham Lincoln i'm
mortal, has always been of uncertain
quantity, and never of certain quality
owing to the fast and loose, or shuttle
cock methods employed by the Republi-
can party, to win his political support,
and to ignore the claims of his race when
that support was gained. No cry taken
up by the stump orators of that party
ever had tithe of the JUNCTION in utter
ance as the cry of Southern outrages on
colored men," and yet after twenty-five
years OF rule we find but one colored man
In high public office, and he only because
he was useful to the party in whipping-in
political strength for them. Since the
change in Government, thousands of COL
ored men who failed to obtain encourage
ment from the Republican party. have
looked to the Democratic Administration
for preferment, and because in the short
space OF two years, more of their number
have not been given Office, they feel
sighted as race. This feeling found
vent in Boston on Wednesday last. at a
conference of the colored men of New
England, called to take action looking TO
their future status in business, society and
politics. James NJ. Trotter, an educated
colored man from Hyde Park presided
and addressed the confaranca aS follo,-,z
"These conferences and conventions he
said, have ceased TO do any good toward
ameliorating the lot of the colored men by
acting upon the sentiment of the white peo-
pie of the country. The fault" he contin-
ued, lis our own more than that of any
other race in the country that we are not
free and independent men. The time has
come when the negro should demand a
whole loaf and nothing else. He has PLAYED
the half-loaf game long enough. The only
place to affect the politician is at the polls''
This cry is the result of the hybrid
position allotted to the race by their
sanctimonious masters, the Republican
party, and if the colored men Of New
England and the whole country seek to
obtain their full and free condition in all
the walks of life, they have but to give
their allegiance and support to the Dem
ocratic party, and as is the case with that
party from its origin, it will ever be true
to its friends. There can be no better
proof Of the ingratitude and selfishness
of the Republican leaders, than this
studied ostracism of the colored man

THE COUNTY COMMITTEE CALL.

Elsewhere i'm this issue is the cali
of the Republican County Committee.
If there is one thing about it that is
significant it is glazing evidence OF
political ignorance.
The convention is called early
enough TO make campaign for Pres
ident of the United States. Sixty
days of gossip and buttoa-hollng
means sixty days taken from the short
working season on Wood River.
Three weeks would have been seven
days more than needed fo- a county
canvass.
Another exhibition of political ig-
norance Is authorizing, err claiming to
authorize, delegates selected with an
especial eye to local county offices, to
name, in a convention called for local
nominations, delegates to a general
convention where a candidate for
Congress is to be nominated. 1t
might have been within the province
Of this County Committee to have
suggested that delegates to the Ter
ritorial Convention be selected, by the
people, when members of the County
Convention were elected. This is
not certain, but it is certain that the
idea of men elected at precinct pri-
maries for local purposes in local
convention selecting representatives
to Territorial Convention, is prepos-
ferrous.

balanced mind and pronounced con-
victions upon all public questions,
with the courage and ability to sus
tain them. He will make a splendid
Auditor and Recorder; he is free
from "rings" and "cliques," and if
the Republicans shall nominate him
he will poll vote that will surprise
the people generally. The Captain,
like all good soldiers, begins his fight
right off, and he has "enlisted for the
war;"

REPUBLICAN HYENAS.

The plan of the dishonest ring
about Boise to run the Republican
party of Idaho should be nipped short
off at once and for all time. These
thieves have had their day and should
be stopped now. This is true of the
entire gang, whether the mackerel-
eater from Maine whose reputation is
as unsavory as is that fish when rot
ted in the moonshine; or the saurkraut
Secretary who, at his dishonest m aster's
bidding, is strutting around and pro
claiming himself to be somebody and
something; or the jobber-ringster who
wishes to capture Idaho's Legislature
for purposes of theft based upon
bribery.
The call of the "Secretaryn for a
meeting at Caldwell, August 10th, to
fix apportionment for delegates, the
time for holding convention to name
a candidate for Congress and other
matters, is not only cheeky in the ex.
treme but insolent. Who is "Saur.
kraut" Krebs that he assumes to call
respectable Republicans to meet him
to do what has already been done by
decent men who had the authority to
do it? On what meat, except the
hope of stolen meat, does this Sec.
rotary "feed that he has lately grown
so great?"
The call made by the Chairman at
the direction of the Territorial Exec
utive Committee, and in which Saur.
kraut participated and sustained the
order, is the only legal and proper call.
Just or unjust, fair or unfair, it is the
binding order of the party, properly
made and issued, and no side-show
can upset its authority. When the
Territorial Committee shall meet in
September according to the call signed
by Onderdonk, Chairman, they can
elect a Chairman to fill the vacancy,
as well as at Caldwell side-show.
The truth is it is job to get control,
in the interest of the barnacles of
Boise, and keep up the game of theft.
If the Republicans of Idaho can
stand it, all we'll.
The TIMES advises the members of
the Territorial Committee to paw no
attention to "Secretary" Krebs's bo-
gus business at all; but if they see fit
to notice it, then to go to Caldwell in
force, take Mr.. Krebs, fguratively
speaking, by the ear aud walk him to
the depot with pass card labeled:
"For Boise;" then go back to their
place of meeting and pass resolu-
ton to the effect that the call of Jan
uary 2Sth is correct and authoritative,
and that they will meet September
3, 1885, in pursuance of and for
the purposes named IN the said call.
And, meantime, let the honest Re-
publicans of Idaho decide upon de
cent men for Chairman and Secretary,
that the party may be freed from the
vile association of the hyenas and
yultures that have been fatteninp
upon it so long.

JAMES GUM FOR RECORDER.

Captain James Gum, of Bullion
and the Gold Belt country, announces
himself in this issue of the TIMES a
candidate for the office of Auditor
and Recorder of Alturas county.
Captain Gum was a private at the
beginning of the late war in the 9th
Wisconsin Infantry; he passed along
the line of promotion and arose to the
rank of Captain of the company he
went out with as private. He lived
nine years in Colorado where he
learned to be practical miner with
such men as "Billy" Clark, w. A..
Hamill, Theo. Simmon, jeff Watts and
others of Clear Creeks miners. The
Captain drifted along the Coast, over
all the mining section and located on
Wood River in 1881. He has devoted
all his time in this country to mining
and prospecting, except some months
in 1881 and 1882, when he worked in
the shops of the Utah & Northern
railroad company, as many of the
boys now at Shoshone will recall.
Captain Gum is a man of educa
ton, of sound, cool judment, we'll

CHARLESTON, March 3.-There was
cOmmotiOn in base ball circles here over
the publication IN the MORNING NEWS of
4 Tuesday OF a dispatch from Macon stat
/ ing that Charleston had not put up Its
| $500 forfeit, and might possibly be ruled
! out OF the league. 1t was known that the

/ had been taken and that the money was
on hand, and as the city is tolerably alive
on the base ball question, the incident
was naturally talked about considerably.
Tue Treasurer OF the association, how
ever, when called upon by your corre-
spondent produced Mr.. Bircn's receipt
dated March 1, and explained
that the difficulty had been caused
by Misunderstanding. The club,

ceipt OF telegram on Sunday, Feb. %,
telling them that unless the money
was in Macon on March
their position in the League would be
forfeited. Charleston has no idea Of for
feiting her position, and the money was
at once telegraphed to Macon. The club
here is making rapid progress with It's

lar professional nine and the Etiwaus, a
crack amateur club OF this city, who did
some good playing last year. Charleston
and Savannah crossed bats many years
ago, when amateur ball playing was in
its infancy, and many persons in both
cities remember the riots which took
between the Charleston and Savannah
clubs. When in the regular schedule

there Will be an immense turn out Of the
citizens TO see the games.

IRELAND's FUTURE.

Conservatives Picture the Possible
Withdrawal OF Capital.
LONDON, March 3. Lord Randolph
Churchill spoke at Manchester to-day.
He said Premier Gladstone deluded the
country with false issues. There was an
imperative necessity for the esta blishment
OF a British Unionist party which would
unite what was best mall parties and
creeds.
The Marquis of Salisbury, speaking at
the Conservative banquet at the Crystal
Palace tonight, denied the assertion of
Sir Henry James. that he had ever
encouraged the home rule delusion in the
slightest manner. He warned the coun-
try that the hasty adoption of land pur-
chase measures for Ireland would drive
away the wealthy and leave the ignorant
under the rule of not overwise hierarchy
while all the money now invested would
virtually be lost. Lord Salisbury bitterly
condemned the Liberals for defeating the
Conservatives on side issue, thus avoid
ing the necessity to formulate an hish
policy.
