It will be remembered that the enemies
of Catholiclty in this country we're very
severe in their structures upon Cardinal
Gibbons and the other dignitaries Of the
Church for the apparent discourtesy of~
fered to President Harrison at the time
Of the dedication Of the Catholic Uni
versity last year. The New York Inde-
pendent Of las: week throws some light
on the matter in the publication Of q
letter dictated BY Cardinal Gibbons in
which he says that il has never entered
into the mind Of any Catholic prelate ct
this country to treat, with other than ttl y

Allied position justly entities him. the

President Of the United States. The.
alleged discourtesy consisted il giving
to the Canadian Cardinal at the banquet
the seat OF honor at the right Of Cardinal
Gibbons instead Of giving it to the Pres
ident. The Cardinal disclaims any m
tention of sighting the President, and
says that if upon the occasion referred to
the prelates we're apparently guilty Of q
breach Of that high courtesy to which
the President is always and everywhere
entitled, the action was entirely uninten-
tional. 1t appears the President was
late in arriving at the banquet, and that
when he unexpectedly entered the room
the Cardinal arose and offered him va
cant seat beside his own. The indie
pendent gives the following explanation
of the affair and says it has obtained the
true facts in the case on the very best
auth GRITTY: The invitation to the Pres
ldent was made verbally, the rector,
Bishop Keane, and the vice-rector, DR..
Garrigan, having called on him for that
purpose. He made no positive promise
TO come, and only said that he would try
to come. if possible. We ale assured
that if the President had been there
when the guests sat down to dinner.
there could have bean no possible ques-
ton Of precedence. The only place that
could be thought of for the President of
the United States was the place of honor
at the right hand Of Cardinal Gibbons.
who presided as the highest d,gnitary of
the American Episcopate and Chancellor
of the University. But while Secretaries
Blaine and Noble were there from the
beginning, there was no sign Of the
Presidents coming, and it was taken for
granted that he would not come; so, all
the available room being more than
needed, no seat was kept for him. He
did come, however, after the close of
the meal and when the toasts were al
ready being given. He was led up to
the Cardinal. who fortunately found q
vacant chair behind him, and offered it
to the President. It was offered and
doubtless accepted without the position
to the right or left being as much as
thought Of The whole thing was en-
tirely informal. We are assured that If
it had occurred to Cardinal Gibbons or
Cardinal Tachereau, there would have
been at once shifting of seats; but the
whole thing was 50 sudden and informal,
that none of those concerned seem to
have thought Of it, The President did
not sit at the table, but little back
from it. aud the Cardinal withdrew so as
to be on line with him. This is the
whole truth of the story; not worth tell
ing, if it we're not for the fact that some
people have made an unnecessary pother
ahoy1t it. =.

THE PLANOF CAMPAIGN.

DARD the address of William O'Brlen ir
Boston, on the plan of campaign as it il
in operation on the estate of Smith.
Barry in Tlpperary. The plan of cam.
paign is an effective weapon in the hands
of the tenant farmers of ireland, as car
be seen from perusal of Mr. O'Brien't
speech. It was after the defeat of the
Gladstonian scheme for an adjustment
of the agrarian difficulties in Ireland and
when the Tories had got into office thai
this plan of tenant com bination against
the collection of rents was put into prac
tice. Dillon and O'Brlen have the
credit of devising the plan which is sub
stantlallv this: that the rents be reduced
from 20 to 40 per cent according to the
poverty of the district, and that the re-
duced rents be paid into the hands OF
trustees appointed by the farmers. to
whom the landlords were referred when
they asked for rents. If the landlords
were willing to accept the reduced rents,
the money was paid over to them by the
trustees, but if they refused they we're
to get nothing. Ii the landlords tried
by legal process to collect the old rents,
the farmers were ready to fight them in
the courts and had the rents to use in
the litigation. The tenants had an ad
vantage over the landlords in this mode
of warfare, for they we're fighting the
latter with the rents, The tenants were
willing at all times to paw reasonable
rents and in case of disagreement as to
what constituted fair rent they would
refer the matter to arbltrators and abide
bv their decision. Some landlords settled
directly with the trustees and took what
was offered them, while others resorted
to arbitration and had the rents fixed
satisfactorily to all parties concerned.
Quite o number Of landlords, however,
arbitrarily demanded the old rents and
called upon the government to aid them
in the eviction of their tenants. The
tenants thus evicted for adhering to the
plan of campaign are supported out Of
the funds in the hands of the trustees,
and those who take the farms of the
evicted tenantry are boycotted, The
government, of course, has declared the
whole system illegal. and the persons
acting as trustees are open to arrest OR
the charge of conspiracy to defraud
STRICTLY speaking, this policy cannot b.
defended from a Christian standpoint.
and some of the prelates, like Bishor
O'Dwyer, have not hesitated to denounce
it. But the plan ia carried on effectively,
as a war measure, and it is tacitly endors
ed BY the Home Rule leaders to man
If the tenants hang together they will
eventually bring the landlords to terms.
or cause them to sell out aud leaye the
country. By act Of parliament the ten
ants are declared to be joint owners with
the landlords of the land they occupy,
and consequently they have some rights
that the landlords must respect. Tue
system of land tenure in Ireland is an
odious one, and 1t is to be hoped that al
no distant day the cultivators of the soil
will become the sole owners thereof.
