FALLACY.

An objection has been urged against silver
coinage on the ground that the metal was
too heavy in respect to value; that only
small sums could be carried conveniently
on the person. This objection, of course,
could have no weight except with few per-
sons who handle large sums of money.
Nine-tenths of the people will have no
trouble in handling all of the money which
ever comes into their hands, and as for the
wealthy classes and business men generally
their transactions are nearly all made by
checks. bills of exchange, etc. The Govern
ment at this time issues notes based upon
silver dollars which are actually in the
United States Treasury. Of course these
United States notes are better than any
bank notes except those which are issued
by the Government to banks on the deposit

A CURIOUS ARRANGEMENT.

singular result of reciprocity with the
Hawaiian Islands is the statement that the
rice product OF The islands is being shipped
TO the United States, while the islanders
themselves are receiving rice from China to
supply THAR own wants. 1t is not improba-
BILE that similar policy has been pursued
with sugar. OF course, while the duties ex-
listed on sugar considerable money could be
made by sending from the islands their own
products free OF duty. The duty on rice
places that product in a similar position
The Mckinley tariff has placed sugar on the
free list. hence the Hawaiian Islands now
have no advantage.

Ireland's Potato Famine.

Copyright 1890 by the United Press.
LONDON, Sept 27.-Oue mi lion OF human be-
fngs Of the same blood and race as millions on
the American side Of the Atlantic are in i'm
minent peril of starvation. Such Is a plain
TACT, irrespective OF any political question, as
TO threatened famine il ireland. Your corre-
spondent has made special inquiry and investi-
ton in order to get at the truth without q shell
OF prejudice, and the controversy which obscares
everything relating TO Ireland, and the above is
his conclusion. The time has gone by for advice
ana suggestion; 1t Is now only question OF
rescue. ana yet one might travel many miles in
more prosperous parts of Ireland without see
ing any sights Of misery and want that prevail
In ne more remote but altogether too thickly in
haoited sections.
AT LEAST oNE-HALF
OF the people of ireland are occupiers OF small
the fury which the Atlantic glles have gathered
In 30 miles Of uninterrupted sweep across the
ocean falls with irresistible force, chilling the
son with excessive rains and preventing the
suns warmth from reaching the struggling
vegetation. The potato is the only crop posi-
be. stock-raising is out of the question. There
is no outside labo. TO bring in money, and when
the potato fails the people go hungry. In these
western districts the potato is a complete anG
utter failure. The pinch OF want is already felt,
anu with the cold weather it will become more
ond more acute, and of Ireland's 5,OOO OlO of
people at least fifth will see Christmas
without rejoicing and without even the coarsest
food in their wretched cabins. A generation
has grown up since o great famine, but Illus
trations OF that day have handed down the sad
spectacle OF graveyards thronged with
MEAGRE CoEPsEs AND GAUNF PoRMs
In rags shlvering peat fires in their miser-
able homes. Is the picture to be repeated? If
not It is not too soon 10 be taking measures for
relief.
The district chiefly afflicted extended from
Donegal round by Mayo. Connemara, Glare and
King and 10 the southeast extremity OF Cork,
and IN Doggy and mounta iuous regions of many
other counties. No such potato blight has APP
peared IN South Wexford since the great famine
OF 1917. In many portions or Wexford, Kill
kenny and Carlow the potato crop is q total
failure.
There has OF late been perceptible decrease
IN emigra' ion from Ire land, but it is already
beginning TO show increase in view of the de-
plorable results of the harvest
