TEXT OF THE DECREE ON THE
"PLANn AND BOYCOTT.

Both Methods unquaIihediy Disapprosed
by the Propaganda, without Reference
TO the Political ouestion--How It Is
Likely To lie Received In the Green Isle
Republication Probable.
LONDON, April 30. The text of the Papal
decree says: On several occasions the Apos
tolic See has given to the people of Ireland,
whom it has always regarded with special
benevolence, suitable ndmonitions and advice,
when the circumstances have required, as to
how they might defend their rights without
injury TO justice or the public peace Our
Holy Father, Leo, XIII, fearing lest in the
species of warfare that has been introduced
amongst the Irish into contests between land
lords and tenants, and which is
commonly called the "plan of campaign"
and in the kind of social interdict called
"bnycotting" arising from the same contests,
the true sense of justice and charity might
be perverted, has ordered the supreme con-
gregaton of the inquisition TO subject the
matter to serious and careful examination.
Hence the following was proposed to their
eminences, the cardinals of that congrega-
ton: Is IL permissible in disputes between
landlords and tenants in Ireland to use the
means known as the "plan Of campaign" and
"boycottingr After long and mature de-
liberation their eminences unanimously
answered in the negative, and their decision
was confirmed by the holy father on 18th
day of the present month.
The Justice of this decision will lie readily
seen by any one who applies his mind to cons
slider that a rent agreed upon by mutual CON
sent can not without violation of a contract be
diminished by the mere will of a tenant, es-
pccially when there are tribunals appointed
for the purpose of settling such controversies,
and reduing unjust rents within the bounds of
equity, after taking into account the causes
which diminish the value of lands Neither
can it be considered permissible that rents
should be extorted from tenants and deposit
ed in the hands of unknown persons to the
detriment of land owners.
Finally it is contrary TO justice and charity
to persecute by social interdct those who
are satisfied to pay the rents they agreed to
pay, or those who in the exercise of their
rights take vacant farms. 1t will therefore
he your lordship's duty prudently but eff
fectually to advise and exhort the clergy and
laity not to transgress the bounds of Chris
tan charity and justice whilst they are striv
ing for remedy for their distressed condi-

Rome, April %
1t is stated that the action of the propa-
ganda was taken spontaneously, and not at
all at the suggestion of any representative of
the English government. The pope approved

entering into the pending political questions

Ex.COmmunicnIed,

The engagement of Rev. M. L. WILLIS
ton to preach at Grace church next Sun
day morning and evening is declared off
by Bishop Perry, the bishop having writ-
ten to Mr.. Williston letter revoking his
authority to serve that church in the
capacity Of clay reader Mr.. Williston
wrote to the bishop some time ago, stats
ing that he had received call from St.
Johns Reformed Episcopal church in
Chicago. and wished to resign as lay
reader for Grace church in order that
he might accept the call, his resignation
to take effect May /. The letter was
not replied TO until Friday, when q
formal document was received from
the bishop stating that his authority as
lay reader had been revoked and for
bidding him to longer administer to the
people of Grace church, also forbidding
him to speak in Grace church on Sunday
next" The Gazette says that 'the
Bishops letter has created good deal of
sensation in the parish, and many are
disappointed that they will thus be cut
off from hearing the two sermons which
have been announced. The trustees of
the Universalist church have rendered to
Mr.. Willlston the use of that church for
Sunday evening, that he may be given an
opportunity to preach the sermon already
announced before the members of Com,
pany C."---Cedar Rapids Republican.

Washington and of leading citizens of Phila
delphia were embarked at the scene on the
steamer Columbia and the revenue cutter
Hamilton. The shipping which was gathered
in the river was thick with humanity and
gayly deckcd in colors Extraordinary in
terest was taken in the event as marking one
of the most important steps toward the re-
Mobilization of the American navy, and plac-
ing it upon an equality with the maritime
forces of other nations. In the yards work
men had for hours been busy in preparing for
the movement of the new warships into their
proper element, and their huge and formula
BILE structures awakened the patriotism of
every heart. Cordons of streamers and flags
were strung over them, and they had as much
of bridal look as grim war vessels can have.
The Washington party, which was brought
in two sections of seven cars each, arrived at
l O'Clock, and proceeded to the steamer Col
umbia, where they were received by Mayor
Filter and a delegation Of the leading citi-
zens together with several of the governors
of the thirteen original states, who held a
meeting here in the morning for the purpose
of making arrangements for the erection of
a monument in Paramount park in celebration
of the centennial of the constitution.
A few moments before 8 o'clock, which was
the hour set for launching Secretary Whit
'ney ana portion OF his party left the Column
bia, and proceeded to platform near the
bows of the two vessels. The signal being
given the blocks were cut from under the
Yorktown and at 500 she slowly moved
toward the water. At this moment Miss
Mary Cameron, daughter of Senator Cam
eron, broke a bottle of wine over the bow
and christened the vessel yorktown" The
steel monster glided gracefully into the
water amid the blowing of whistles, waving
of handkerchiefs and hurrahs of the crowd
which lined the docks.
Five minutes later the dynamite cruiser
moved toward the water. Miss Eleanor
breckenridge, daughter of Representative
Breckenridge, of Kentucky, christened her
"Vesuvius.
After viewing the vessels few moments
as they gracefully hoated in the water the
signal for the return was given The Column
bia reached her dock at 4:I5, and at 80
Whitney's party were on their way
to Washington.

The state IL Worth Fighting for.

The democracy of this state propose to
make q good fight this fall, with the pur>
pose of carrying it. We have more chan
ces in our favor-we have more than u
fighting chance. The predictions of ruin
aud disaster to the business interests of
the country. so broadly uttered by repub.
lican speakers and writers four years ago,
in case the people should elect Mr.. Cleve,
land to the presidency, have all proven
false and fraudulent The people of this
state will not be fooled by such lying
nonsense again, any more than they will
be fooled by the braggart assertions that
Mr.. Cullom paid off the state debt"
National questions will, of course, as
they should, be of great consequence in
the campaign. The people of Illinois do
not want to buy up the national bonds at
large premium; the people OF Illinois do
not want TO pay heavy tariff on the iron
for their plows. the lumber or iron for
their fences, the wooden goods for their
clothing. the salt for their cattle or their
meat, or the calico for the dresses of their
families In brief. the people of Illinois
do not believe they can get rich by the
process of paying taxes to anybody or
for any purpose.
And this fact brings into prominence
another reason for the inevitable defeat
of the republican party, it this: We, the
people Of Illinois. have been obliged to
pay this year SO cents on the 800 of
property value for the purpose of main
tanning the republican state government
and republican state institutions, and
this we propose to do no more. The par
tisan editors, some of whom it IS known
have share in this plumber try to evade

BALTIMORE, April 3O.-For years efforts
have been made to expunge the word white
from the bastardy law Of Maryland in order
that colored women might have the same
protection as white women. Last winter the
same bill locking to this end was introduced
in the legislature and met with the same fate
--defeat-as at the hands of former general
assemblies 1t has just been discovered that
the new code Of public general laws prepared
by John p. Poe, Esq, and which was adopted
by unanimous vote Of the legislature of 1888,
accomplishes just what the legislature wanted
to defeat-and did defeat when they knew
what they were voting upon in the bastardy
bill. Mr.. Poe, in preparing the new code, IN
advertently left out the word white" in the
chapter relating to the bastardy law, and the
whole code went through without tine discov-

CHICAGO, April 3O.--Two Republican con
ventions were held here Saturday-the Fourth
district congressional and the county con
vention to select delegates to the state con
vention. In the first, George Z. Adams was
nominated for congress, this being the fourth
time, and resolutions endorsing Judge W.
@. Gresham for president, were adopted
In the county meeting the mention OF
Gresham's name was received every time
with vociferous applause, making the sense of
the meeting on that point unmistakable.
Chicago Republicans seem to be almost
unanimous for the Judge. Mr. Adams, COM
