NEW YORK, May e.-There are 1000
policemen in ireland today-one officer
TO $40 persons, largely little children and
men and women Of advanced years
These policemen are the sons Of Irish
farmers and they are cordially hated by
tho people. To such a degree Is this
hatred carried that recently the police in
TippGra.y were unable to buy food and
were forced TO open up 4 depot Of sup
plies. Tho close espionage to which
the IrishInen are subjectel IS exasperat-
ing to the last degree. Sometimes, how
ever, the boobies" are outvitted, to the
intense delight Of Pat Not long since n
certain. blacksmith OF Queenstown, who
Is locally known as DR.. O'Toole, was
visited by Mr.. Ford, Of Chicago.
IT appears that when Ford landed on
Irish soil a satchel which he carried
attracted the attention OF the police
They suspected that it contained dyna-
mite or firearms O'Toole and Ford
started % visit the rock Of Cashel, and a
detective was sent along in the railway
carriage to watch the satchol. When
the party arrived al the railway station
nearest the rock of Cashel they GOT into
2 Jingle" to continue tho journey The
BOBBY" got in, too. They had ridden
FOR several miles, the officers ewes being
fastened upon the satchel all the time,
and O'Toole and Ford enlivening the
way with songs and laughter, when the
patience Of the detective became ex-
hausted and he said:
"Yezu not 60 another fut o the way
I'll ! see fwhats in that bag"
"G'out" exclaimed O'Tooio; dye
tAlle us fur HAYES, ye blaggard? Faix, if
/ had me way the 1900 o We peelers nd
be sunk in the ssy whin I'd scuttle Ire
land, Bat devil take yer imPidence, luk

The officer took the satchel with look
Of greedy expectation. he fumbled With
the lock and when the bag fell open lie
found-a bundle Of paper collars ard an
empty whisky flask! L. J.

The race question attracts q vast
deal of attention among politiciansand
newswriters.
Whilst discussing the various meth
DDS of improving the feeling Of amity
between the two races it would he as
we'll to confine the Arguments to prac-
teal ones. To advocate the repeal Of
the fifteenth amendment to the consfi-
tuition Of the United States is simply a
waste of words and time.
The question is bein" practically
settled in Louisiana. The best Of
feeling exists between the negro labor
er and the white men who employ
him. Nothing car interrupt that har-
mony except the interference Of
scoundrcls who come here expecting
to fattcn on the folly of others. and
putting mischief into the heads Of the
colored people, which can not be
done to any great extent ut present.
The days of the carpet baggtr are
ended. The negro, grown up within
the last 80 years will not listen to tie
Siren song of these wandering vaga-
bonds. He is able to sec, to real and
judge for himself and to comprehend
that his true, best and only friend is
the ncigl!bor near whom he lives and
who furnishes him employment to
support himself.
