They show'by their acts that they care
more for vengeance than even for the
rents that they have been trying TO
extort. We find in the London Daily
News plain, unyarnished account Of
the war that they are waging on their
tenants. A description of the gathering
of the evicting force begins with these
words: This morning the army of
occupation In West Donegal was partly
mobilized from Anagly to Dunfanaghy.
The object of the movement was kept
secret until the different detachments
were concentrated on Glassercboo. !"
We have here all the pomp and circum-
stance Of war. Later ON we sLall see
what was the object of this mobolizing
OF 5alf0ur's forces.
When it was time to take up the line
of march there appeared on the scene
q body OF emergencymen with carts.
Here is the way these fellows are des-
cribed: AT every step the emergency
men come armed with scythes, pitch
fork. and a shovel. and revOlvers on
their hips The first stopping place
was at the farm of James McGrady.
The police armed with rifles formed a
Gordon around the farm, whilst the
emergencymeu set about cutting down
and carting off the crop, which is thus
described by the London News cores
pondent: mo one but lunatlc would
cut a crop IN such green, unripe state
but anything is good enough for pur-
poses OF vengeance. which is supposed
to inspire a good deal OF the raYages
committed under the cover of the guns
of her Majesty's police" When farm
was thus despoiIed Of its unripe crop:
the army of destruction moved on tx
the next, and so on till night put stOI
| to the ravages committed in the name
of .'law and order" We are informed
by the London Daily News that this
kind of work is to continue unit
nothing remains but the cold bleak bog
and then Glasserchoo will be barrer
waste. returning neither the LANDLORD
nor anybody else single penny until i
becomes peopled again"
We have here a specimen Of the prac
tical workings of Irish landlordism. 4
whole country side is made desoIate be
cause rack-renting landlord wants Il
crafty his hatred of those who hav'
spent their lives in hard work in orde
that he and his might live in luxury
The notorious Olphert's latest Grim
shows to what length this hate can b
carried. We refer to his wanCon ant
malicious destruction Of the turf OF hi
tenants, which he ordered to be cut an,
thrown into bog holes.
The English correspondent whom w
have quoted writes that as u result Q
this atrocions act ''the poor famishin
families Of Innisboggin Island will wan
| for The first winter firing next winter
and Mr.. Olphert will have the consOla
ton while dining before cracking
sparkling and bright coal fire, and re
aecting that he buried the turf deep i
the bog-the bog that was theirs time
out-of mind, and still theirs iii all hon
esty and justice" And so Irish lanc
iordism goes on Diling crime upo
crime. whilst Balfour is doing his bes
to assist it in It's criminal career. Lie
us hope that the time Is not far distan
when both he and it will cease to ours

The Grimes Of irish Landlordlsm,

The savagery practiced by Irish land
lords on their victims is well illustrated
by what is happening in West Donegal
on the estates OF the notorious Olphert
and other rack renters. Balfour has
placed at their disposal large force Of
soldiers and police that enables them
to glut their vengeance on their tenants.

Choice apples are growing scarcer and de-

room for Improvement. The commission mer-
chant who laid In apples at 81 40 in the fall and
finds one-third of his stock rotting on his hands
is not very jubilant over the situation when he
closes out his stock at little above 81 per bar
rel. A sale of II barrels of fair apples at s11
was witnessed by The DISPATCH commercial
editor to-day at produce house on Liberty
street. Said commission merchant, "Out Of
500 barrels Of apples have lost l92by rot in the
past three months" While the crop has been
immense, it has lacked in good keeping quail
ties. Choice butter and eggs are still the firm
factors of produce markets. Cheese is steady,
but so far has disappointed calculations by not
going up. A rise is almost sure between now
and Lent, If we are to judge the future by the
