FARIBAULT Pilot: Parnell has f.
nally withdrawn from his long and
costly suit with the London Times, and
the only regret of his many friends is
that he did not do so Immediately after
the discovery and publicity of the
forgeries that Pigott had perpetrated.
When the books Of the Land league
were demanded they were produced
without hesitation. but when the at
torney for Parnell. Sir Charles Russell,
asked that the books of the Tory league
be subjected to an inspection, in order
to learn what disposition had been made
of the funds of that organization know
ing an examination was certain to
reveal the fact that Pigott and LeCaron
had received liberal paw from the Tories
for the dirty work they performed, the
commission meekly denied the request.

gusted Parnell and his counsel that they

The bill providing for Louise, the
eldest granddaughter Of Queen Victoria
has passed it's first reading in the House
Of Commons, and will no doubt become
a law. This is another OF the many
burdens that the subjects Of Great
Britain have to bear. Every year the
British treasury contributes 50, OH, l75
to the maintenance of the royal family,
which does not include la1ge amount
contributed for the maintenance of pub
lie parks and a hundred other different
things. The amounts paid annually to
the members of the royal family are:
Queen Victoria, $2,80l,Ol4; Prince of
Wales, $500, $50, Prince Alfred, $l5l, $40;
Prince Arthur, $l45.000; Princess
Royal, $40, 200; Princess Helena, $50. 600;

THERE is a storm of no small dimen-
sion raging in Canada over the seizure
of the schooner Black Diamond in
Behring Seas by the United States
revenue cutter Richard Rusch. The
Black Diamond was poaching seals and
refused to allow an examination of her
cabin when overtaken by the American
vessel. When Uncle Sans guns were
turned upon her the captain surrender
ed. A search of the vessel disclosed
lob sealskins, that had been taken in
Behring sea, and this was enough to
warrant the course taken. The United
States government gave orders some
time ago that no poachlnE would ne
allowed there, and if Canadian vessels
see fit to dlsobey orders. and walk over
the boundary line in this way, they
must suffer the conseuuGhces. Canada
is now calling on England to help her
and vindicate the honor of the Doml-
MON. Keep out of the United States
seas and your honor, old Canada, will
be all right.

THOMAS LOWRY has accepted the

council ordering the building of three
new cable lines IN addition to the one
ordered in place of the motor. This
was just what everyone expected.
Mayor Babb signed the resolution. but
Judge Shaw and others brought great
pressure to bear on him not to do so on
the grounds that it ought to have come
in the shape of an ordinance, and not as
a resolution, to be legal. The MAYOR,
however, consulted the city attorney,
who pronounced it legal, and with this
assurance, the chief executive attached
his autograph to the important docu-
ment. Now that the Street Railway

the most significant honor that the Irish
leader has yet received at the hanos Oh

less than the freedom of the great city
of Edinburgh, the political and intellec"
tual capital of Scotland. No less
narsonage than the Earl OF Aberdeen
nresided over this important assem-
blage. Gladstone was not able TO at
tend, but sent his greetings TO Parnel]
and the friends of Home Rule at the
Scotch capital. What change has
come over Scotland in the past few
vears It is but a short time since Che
people of that country were as out
spoken against Parnel! as the admirers
of Balfour are to-day, but time works
changes and with the helping hand OF
MIR, Gladstone, the Scotch like the Irish
Professionals, have seen the folly OF thel1
WAYS. They are now willing that Ire
land should have word to say in the
management of her internal affairs.
They recognize the injustice of aliens
governing the country, and are free to
express it. Thanks to the people OF
Scotland, who, seeing the inhuman way
their kindred across the channel are
being handled by a heartless govern
ment. lose no time in denouncing that
treatment as barbarous and unbecomlng

ROCHESTER, UNION: AS we predict
ed the hanging of August Bulow at
Little Falls, last week, was reported in
detail by the daily papers. 1t was done,
not in defiance Of any law, but in an
sWer to the demand of the people If
the state. Whether prosecution will
follow this violation Of the law is not
as yet known. Laws to he effective
must have the endorsement of the
people. Such as are passed in violation
of public sentiment are worse than use

the view of helping the country as well
as the investors. No one Of course in
vests money in any enterprise with the
sole view Of helping the country where
he invests, OF the people who work to
make the investment success. But
with the average American citizen there
is great deal of local pride and he is as
much interested in the town where his
money is invested as the man who owns
8 handsome home, and draws comfort
able revenue from his rented cottages.
This however cannot be said Of the aver
age Britisher who comes here. He in
yariably remains loyal subject OF
England, and invests his little pile with
the sole purpose of helping himself re.
CARELESS of any local interest. He
thinks only of himself and when he will
be able to return to Hold England"
and live without work. There is
another class of Englishmen who come
here with pockets full of money and buy
I'D everything they can reach at their
own prices, and sit back until surround
ing enterprises have made their invest
ments good, and almost twice as valu-
able as when purchased. This is per,
haps the meanest class of Brltishers we
get here; self is written on their brow
and they are no good to any one but
themselves It is the millionaire Brit
ishers that this country should watch.
They are buying up the most valuable
land in the country, and will continue
to do so unless the proper means is used
to prevent them. Ii these foreigners
will only become citizens Of this cOun-
try then there can be no objection to
their doing as they please in this re-
spect, but as long as they refuse to re-
nounce their allegiance to foreign
power there should be nothing left for
them here, and they should not he al
lowed to come in here and gobble up
what rightfully belongs to American

THAT ENGLISH SYNDICATE?

For the past two months MINNEAPOLIS
las been stirred up with the reports
that an English syndicate, laden with
an unlimited supply of the current coin
Of the realm, was about to march upon
her and purchase every -four mill on the
Falls. This syndicate was TO control
everything in the wheat line in the
Northwest. They were to purchase all
the saleable elevators, aud In this way
control the wheat market in this coun~
try. Many believed that such would be
the case; even the daily papers grew
pale at the thought Of Minneapolis
turning over her pride and power to a
handful ofIdisinterested foreigners, who
in all probability would run the Whole
business into the ground If not down
the river. But the IRISH STANDARD
took but little stock in the report. 1t
saw that there was something very
queer about the. reported deal from the
very beginning. When the SO called
agent Of this syndicate left London for
New York, he gave the reporters a
'po1nter7' as, to where he was going
and the nature of his mission, and be
fore the ship Oh which he came to New
York had sailed, the announcement
was heralded all over the country, that
an English syndicate had been formed
to buy up the Minneapolis mills, and
chat man was on the way TO America
to close the deal, that he was provided
with ample cash and could have more il
necessary, and that the question OF pur-
chasing the greatest mills in the world
was only matter of a few days. When
this agent arrived here and looked over
the big wheat crushers. he ascertained
what their owners were willing to sell
them for, he quickly left the city, or as
soon after as he could arrange matters
with his hotel keeper to let him go, ne
quit the Gown and said not word. His
friends in England thought perhaps the
mills could be had for a few thousand
dollars, but when they heard that it
would require millions instead OF
thousands, he was given orders to quit
the wheat fields of the Northwest as
quickly as possible. Several weeks ago
the IRISH STANDARD said that it would
attach no Importance to this rumor I'M
til it was satisfied that these capitalists
had paid their hotel bills. It was as
satisfied then as it is now, that an Eng
lishman can manufacture more wind
pudding in an hour than Yankee can
masticate in week. Watch for another
sQuall.

SPEAKING Of Parnell and the Irish
Parliamentary party, and what they
have done for the honor of England
and the peace of Ireland, Mr.. Gladstone
saws: 1.-The time has not vet arrived
for detailing the memorable experience
OF Parnell during the last two years. [
believe that experience to be unparall-
eled in the history of a British states
man in parliament for the past two
centuries. consider Parnellites to be
in the best sense conservatives. They
have been the restorative force Of great
value to the peace of Ireland and honor
of England, while the tyranny OF the
government has deepened the aversion

The Bows Must Work.

The girls of Catholic families usually
have more opportunities for education
than the boys. Where one boy is grad
uated at college, three girls are grad
uated from convent academies. Yet
the number of boys is slightly in excess
of the number of girls. Why is this
partially shown to the girls? In the
first place, the cost of years schooling
at convent is not so high as at COL
lege. In the second place girls are not
made useful and they might as we'll be
at school as be ldling their time away at
home; whereas MANY boys are COM
PEELED to go to work at an early age. and
when they should be receiving an edu-
cation equal to their sisters, they
are helping to support the family. To
equalize things, girls ought to be taught
to do work that will enable them to be
bread-wipnars, and the charges made
BY colleges ought to be reduced.
