Evidently this is not Off year up in Auburn
even In local politics. The Bulletin of that
city, writing OF the recent Republican primaries
says Where all the Republicans came from who
swoOpcd down upon and almost 0vercamo the
poll workers is mystery. Never before have there
been such crowds at the primaries and never be-
lore were such activity and hustling seen by the
staid Republicans Of this town, who are accus-
toned to caucuses more like tea parties" Good
This looks like genuine political revival There
are number of better institutions tLan q tea

hope that the Auburn Republicans will carry the
enthusiasm which chamrtcri<cd their primaries
into the campaign and that their unanimity may
keep pace with their carncstness

The sophom0res in the Columbia School o.

toward pcrpetuating the cifctc custom Of "rush-

autumn the former engaged in fight yesterday
with the lower classmen over cane and in the
struggle the venerable President Barnard got
roughly jostled. The hope that this practice
might be abandoned Is not strengthened by
this occurrence. Nevertheless it ought to

Mr. Gladstoncs tribute TO Mr. Chamberlain's
utilities as statesman bctollcncd breadth OF mind.
The birmingham leader has not always spoken
respectfully Of his former chief. Indeed he has
made the most acrimonious and defiant replies
to Mr.. Gladstone that have been heard from the
Liberal side. Ills opposition to Home Rule de-
fcaicd the Irish cause in 1886 and handed over
the Government to the Tories for a seven years
lease. Mr.. Gladstone had no reason to swak
kindly of Mr. Chamberlain, who has strcnuousy
opposed him in the last great work Of his life /;
but he had The nagnanimity to he just TO u polit-
ical opponent and TO give him full credit for the
remarkable talents which he undoubtedly POSSESSES
Mr.. Chamberlain may have proved bad friend
to Ireland, but he is most accomplished English
man. a. all the world knows.

public grounds. The present Fisheries Treaty We
shall continue to oppose, not for partisan reasons,
but because it involves surrender of American
rights. We call upon The World TO join us
in this patriotic movement and not to continue

American treaty solely because a Democratic Ad-

That Dark Lantern makes very poor showing
in the pitileSs blaze Of the MONDAY sun.

Mr. Chamberlain has earned an extra allow
ancc for necessary expenses from the British Gov
eminent. His diplomatic triumph has been COM
plcte, and he deserves the thanks of Parliament
for his brilliant manocuyrcs. To be sure, as
Americans know TO their cost, it not very
difficult to make dupe of poor Mr. Bayard ;
but Mr. Chamberlain deserves credit in England
for outwittng an American Secretary of State.
Parliament can we'll afford to pay his bills and be
grateful to him. Mr.. Labouchere has the common
weakness Of Extreme RadicaIs-an inclination to
count pennies and be close in great matters Of
State.

Mr.. Chamberans speech at the farewell
dinner in his honor was entirely devoted to a
discussion of the proposed Fisheries Treaty
He abandoned the attitude OF diplomat and
came ont boldly in defence of the work done
in Washington OF course he may be par
doncd for indug in "A little pride on account
of the easy victory which he won over Secrc-
tary Bayard and his cOmplaisant associates.
Naturally Mr. Chamberlain applauds the treaty,
and he finds no opposition to il except on tho
part Of opponents Of the Government i'll both
the United States and Canada. His prcscnta-
ton Of the case was clever. but is not likely TO
affect many votes in the Senate.
The Republican primaries yesterday were
conducted quietly as a rule. In one or two
districts there were contests but none Of impor
tancc. In each Assembly District there were
elected district officers. delegates to the County
Committee and District Committee of forty
members. Notwithstanding the fact that there
were few contests, a good vote was cast in
almost every instance. This shows that the
Republicans of this city are active and cncr-
gctio in view OF the coming Presidential cam
paign. Rarely has there been more marked
unity or disposition indicative Of more vigor-

Joseph Acton, of Philadelphia, the cham

j. b. HIbbatts, of San Francisco, who
acted as referee, called time at 9:30 O'Clock,
and both men went cautiously to work
1t soon became maifest that Aeton's supe-
rIor weight would tell against his oppo-
nent. The hitter, whose ability for getting
out of serioas positions is wsil-known,
worked hard TO throw the Eastern man,
but TO no avail. In twenty minptss Acton
had Faulkner's shoulders touehing the
carpet.
After a rest of fifteen minutes the
second bout took place This lasted three
minutes longer than the first, and YVES won
by Faulkner dezterously throwing himself
on the Philadelphian's chest and head,
compelling him TO make his two shoulders
meet the carpet.
The audience went wild with excitement
at Faulkner's success, and he was tunult-
uously cbesred.
The third bout was of hut six minutes
duration, and after a hard tussle was won
by Acton, who was ;hen awarded the
match.
1t was the general opinion among those
who witnessed the match that had the men
been evenly matched in weight Faulkner
would have won.

LoNDo1E, July 31st.-In the Commons to-
night Smith moved the suspension of the
standing order under which discussion on
the commission bill wilF be Interrupted al
midnight. After objections by ParneH the.
motion was adopted.
Parnell, resuming the debate on Reid .,
proposal to restrict the INQUIRY. referred
again TO ChRmberlain's conduct in Office
while in the Cabinet.
The Chairman interfered 10 state that
this line of observation was. not in order
Parnell replied that if thi3wer the case
he would reserve further statements on the
subject MI ne came before the Commits
sion, when he would be prepared to prove
his charge by bis own and others evil
dence, and by documents and Statements
The Nationals Were quite ready to meet de-
flnlte charges before Court or Commits
sion, but they could not meet inuendoes
which would be used to raise a cloud of
suspicion for political purposes.
chamberlain offered personal explana-
ton at some length The ONLY direct
communications he had with Parnell dur-
ing this period we're as follows: The first
communication related TO Par5eli,s release
from kilmainham jail and information of
WHAT occurred was uGly conveyed TO Glad
stone and Foster. The second referred tn
information of National Councils in Ire
land. Everything that passed between
himself and Parnell wss Immediately com
municated to Mr.. Gladstone and other Min
listers.
Parnell said Chamberlain was clever
man, but not enough so to ride off in a
transparent fake the issue about theIfish
local government bill. Whatever the SUBJ
ject of communication mentioned, it did
not touch his charges that Chamberlain
had violated his oath as Cabinet Minister.
He could produce letter in Chamberlain's
hand alluding to the defeat and withdrawal
of the police bill for Ireland. in which he
glorlfied in Lord Spencer's discontinue at
the withdrawal of the measure FCheers.
Chamberlain said he did not intend to
imply that the subject of National Councils
was the only matter discussed between
himself and Parnell.

hundred thousand Irishmen who have
heretofore voted the Democratic ticket will
vote for Harrison this year. 1t is COM
mon charge that Irishmen who are oppos-
ing the tariff policy of the Democratic
party are acting selfishly. Perhaps they
are, bat want to ask you if the English
free traders who want US to pass free trade
bills are not acting selfshly.

ton Investigation.
Copyright ISss, blythe California Associated f7ressI
NEW YoRK, July 31st.-The contract Ia
Dor investigation was resumed this morn
ing. The first witness, an Italian, testified
that he was persuaded to sell his land in
Italy to come here, on the promise of work,
but he had found no work and had no
money. He expected some one to pay his
passage back to Italy a society sent him
here. When he landed at Castle Garden
he wss told by the agent of the society that
he would get work las soon as God sent
it, that the matter was sin the hands OF
the Almighty" In Naples the agent of
the society told him he was fortunate 20 be
consigned to the society : New York, as
all such emigrauis were at once provided
with work, the New York society owning
lands on which they employed Italian inl-
migrants, whereas other immigrants were
not so fortunate. He was induced to pay
ten or twelve francs more than the regular
rates by these statements.
This was a sample of the testimony
This witness gave a note on his farm in
Italy and expected it would now be seized
as he could not raise the money. Money
lenders charged as much as go per cent.
Other Italians testified TO being deluded
by immigration agents.
