TUE ,eIsH LAND LEAGUE.

The proceedings of the conv ention of the
American branch of the Irish Land League
at Chicago will be watched with in
terest on both sides of the water.
The movement for local self govern
ment in Ireland has been so fostered and as
sisted by the Irish in this country that the
United States has come, to be looked upon
almost as its headquarters. At home the
irish are constrained by the laws to be mod
crate of speech. In this country they can
speak out freely. Therefore it is to this
country that the English turn for full and
accurate information as to the objects which
the National League has in view. Mr.. Par
nell's adversaries have always contended
that the ultimate purpose which he had IN
mind was the absolute independence of Ire
land that local self government was but
| stepping-stone to that contamination. In
the late canvass every Tory orator SO argued
from the stump, and with sufficient plausl
bility to excite the fear in the minds OF thous-
| ands and tens of thousands of Englishmen
| that Mr. Gladstone,s bill mcant something
| more than home rnle, that the result OF IL
would be the establishment of a distinct ma
| ton across the Irish channel Independent OF
England and hostile to England. There can
| be little doubt that it was this fear that car
| ried the election against Mr.. Gladstone and
| POSTPONED for a time the consummation of
| Mr.. Parnell's hopes.
Having raised this issue, which we be-
lieye is false one, the Tories are now look
| ing about for material to prove its verify, and
undoubtedly their gaze is now fixed on the
| convention at Chicago. 1t is easy to see that
| alot-headed delegate to that body may fur
nish them with good deal of valuable am
munition. Irish patriotism must be tenn
| pered with discretion, or else it will still fur
| ther postpone the day of home rule. The
| clique, small but noisy one, which thinks
| Mr.. Parnell is too slow, and advocates re-
| sort to violence, must be repressed, and the
temperate and rational men of the League
take and keep control of the convention.
Nothing could be more unfortunate for the
Irish cause at this juncture than an ebullition
of threats and denunciations at Chicago. The
Tories evidently would like to resort to their
old method of coercion. But the temper of
the English people is against it, and SO long
as it remains so even Lord Salisbury will be
compelled to deal leniently and with some
| approximation to justice with the Irish peo-
| pie. The Chicago convention has it in its
power to change all this and give the Tory
| government an excuse for the revival of
harsh measures. 1t can do it by hot-headed
resolutions and harangues. tits in its power
also to put the government under still greater
bonds to deal justly with Ireland. 1t can do
that by demanding only that which is rea-
sonable and sternly frowning down every
thing that tends to justify a resort to vio-
lence

cent to the shareholders. The manufac-
turers estimate that the advance will not
amount to much more than half cent yard
to the user in the Dominioni and as each
user takes an average amount of about
twenty yards year, the manufacturers con-
clude very complacently that their action
will mean to the consumer 'sonly ten cents
per annum, mere trife, which will be much
more than compensated for by the stability
and regularity of the trade" The Toronto
Globe, which looks at the scheme from
another point of view, says: "The cotton
magnates of Canada have combined to raise
the price of their fabrics about half a cent
yard. The consumption of their goods IS
about twenty yards per body of the Domin-
ion, hence they they have agreed to levy
tax of $5,O0O,0O0 for their own benefit. The
cotton lords are thus one of the taxing pow
ers of the country"

Naturally the question is asked how Mr..
Gray could steal over a half million dollars
from two mill companies and the directors
know nothing about it. The answer proba-
bly, is that the directors had full confidence
in him and substituted his word for person
al examination. One would suppose that re-
peated warnings of the danger of such a
course would teach directors of corporations
to do differently but they do not seem to.

The arbitration law passed by the last leg

useful as WIS anticipated. All the shoe fac

dispute between the employers and their
workmen, and neither party appears to sug-
gest even the possibility of settlement by
arbitration. AT Peabody and Salem labor
troubles of very serious nature have ex-
listed for long time, and the arbitration law
is unappealedto to. The blame for this state
of things appears to rest about equally on

THE DUTIES OF DIRECTORS.


The discovery of Mr.. Gray's rascality, fol-
Snelling's wrong doing, is decidedly start
ling, and cannot help affecting all corporate
interests. 1t is the old story of too much
confidence on the part of directors in their
associate. The immediate effect will be to
start directors of all sorts of institutions to
an inquiry as to their treasurers' standing,
but after while the excitement will blow
over, and the old course will be resumed till
the next sensation occurs. 1t is useless to
preach about the cases of Gray and Smelling.
They carry their own moral, and every one
can read the lesson. Blue blood and good
family are not irresistible bulwarks against
temptation; and there is no safety for inyes-
tors in any enterprise except in the constant
and suspicious watchfulness Of those en-
trusted with their management

Resolved That if few designing men are to
dictate and control the Offices of the country and
olde rough snod over the great masses OF the Dem
bring about change in the administration is but
poorly rewarded.
This is what the Bucksport Democrats
said when they assembled together to de-
nounce Collector Spofford for appointing 6
deputy who was Republican. There is nc
reason why the great majority of the Demo
cratic voters of Maine may not get together
and pass similar resolution in regard to the
Democratic State campaign. 1t is patent to
everyone that it is being run by few de-
signing men, most Of them Ex-State Steal
ers, and that their ultimate purpose is to "dic-
tate and control the offices" in this State. Not
one of them expects that Edwards will be
elected or that any of their candidates for Con-
gress will get plurality of the votes polled.
What they anticipate is that these candidates
after election will have influence at Wash
ington by reason of their candidacy, and that
they will be able to control and direct that
influence. The Brown and Chase ring are
hghting to perpetuate themselves. They have
seen to it that no person was nominated for
any important office, who was not in sympa-
thy with them. Fidelity to the Democratic
party counts nothing with these managers
fidelity to themselves and to the count-out is
