ARCHBISHOP IRELAND ON THE NEED
OF LAW AGAINST THE LIQtoR
TRAFFIC.
This traffic openly and deiantly
breaks the law of the land. 1t boasts
of its trumphs over the law. The
Saloon-keeper is deaf to appeals of
humanity and religion. The liquor
traffic is demoniac In it's recklessness;
it has not the slightest care that
homes are demolished, all joy and
hope crushed out Of hearts. virtue
destroyed. souls damned earth cursed
and eternity turned into darkness
and despair. The Saloonkeepers, or
mere retailers, arenot the most guilty
parties. The wholesale dealers, the
brewers and distiller's are the chief
causes that we have So many saloons,
and by their social influence and their
wealth they do far more than the
retailers to prevent all temperance
leg station.
l we'll know the value of moral
suasion Of teaching, by individual
calculations. But it becomes plain
that citizenship enjoins upon us
other duties in the premises. The
Stare must interpose her authority to
arrest the evil. The State alone has
| the power. The enemy is organized
determined; individual efforts are a:
pebbles thrown against a well forti-
fed citadel. The traffic conscious OF
power of the State has striven tt
wrest it to its own ends. the State
must hurry TO free itself. 1t is {
matter bearing upon its own life; thu
liquor traffic threatens destruction tt
our republican institution. and ever
now it has i'll many places made man
hood suffrage Il meaningless word.

AS the pan-washing and grading OF
the adventurous prospector Of 40 has
given way, ON the Pacific slope. to the
operations Of organized and scientific
mining industry, so the individual oper-
atoms of the individual diamond diggers
OF Griqualand, South Africa, in 1871,
with their rude bucket and windlass,
followed by the inclined wire, have been
replaced by skilled labor. Tunnels have
been blasted through solid rock, shafts
have been sunk hundreds of feet into the
earth, and yet the precious bits of carbon
are found in quantities to supply the
greed of ayaricious man and furnish a
living to thousands and wealth to a
lucky few.
In 1872 what is now known as Kimber-
ley was called De Beers New Rush and
had already been yielding up its carbon
crystals until a city of tents and cor
rugated iron houses, with one huge music
hall and between 300 and 400 drinking
places had clustered around the enor-
nous excavation, whence the earth had
been removed by single bucketfuls. This
marvellous result of the labors of the
human ants who swarmed in its depths
and on its borders was the spot which
became known the world round as the
Kolesbcrg Kopie before it became the
Kimberley mine.
Some idea of the size of the Kopie and
henumber of people working on it daily
will be gathered from the statement that
at the time now spoken of 800 claims,
each being thirty feet square, and an
average Of about thirty men-say twenty
six black and four white-worked in
each claim, giving total of q, 900 work
ing there. The first licenses to work
claims at the Kopie were issued on the
goth Of July, 1871, and in little more than
year the claims were carried down SO
deep, many over eighty feet, that none
OF the roadways Were left standing COM
plete, though immense portions of them
having the appearance Of huge broken
walls remained.
The Iopje has been APPLY described as
a vast human ant-hill, " says writer of
the period referred to. Il do not know
moro effective simile. Human beings
are everywhere moving about with an
activity and in numbers, like ants. They
pass over the harrow roadways, glide
down the face of the excavation. or are
at work at a depth which dwarfs their
statures into that of mere miniature
men. Here men are feverishly risking
their necks day after day in the pursuit
of wealth. They pass over places where

In the southern central part of the
state, however, extending from latitude
20 degrees 30 minutes to latitude 9S de-
grees 30 minutes, is network of little
lakes, rivers and swamps, which was
long considered unfit for any Of the pur-
poses of civilized life This region is be-
tween forty and sixty feet above the
level of the sea, so that there is no reason
why it should be considered undrainable.
The lakes and swamps have been formed
by the rank vegetation, which for cent
uries grew, decayed and fell into the
rivers, thus danming them up and
partially flooding the surrounding
country.
The company organized by Disston, Of
Boston. obtained from the government
a grant Of all the lands which should be
drained by it. Tie company brought
down dredges and began its work by
clearing out a channel from the Lake
Okeechobee to the Atlantic, distance of
forty miles. II the project is ever carried
out, it will shorten by about 2G0 miles
the sea voyage between points on the At
lantic coast and the gulf ports. The
company also intends to drain the south

ployed in retaining the northern
