The purpose of the visit of the Irish dele
CATION to this country is officially stated by
Mr.. I. p. Gill, M. p, to be ito appeal to the
Irish race and to all friends of Ireland in
America for support for the struggle which
the Irish people are making to protect their
lives, homes and liberties against the COM
bined forces of coercion, landlordism and
disagreement. and to advance the cause
which has for its end the establishment of a
native legislature in Dublin which will en-
able the Irish people to govern themselves
and develop the resources of their country
and the Irish ration, to fulfil that destiny to
which her sons believe she has been called I"
The alleged famine does not figure in this
announcement, from whichit is fair to infer
that the failure of the crops is not so general
or SO severe as has been sometimes repre-
sented. Though the appeal will not fall
with so much force upon the American
people as it would were 1t an appeal to save
men and women from starvation, 1t will and
should receive respectful attention. The
Irish demands of the English government are
not unreasonable. Hardly single one of
the English dependencies but has been con-
ceded more than she asks. Canada and Aus
tralia are practically free to manage their
local affairs as they see fit. Why should not
the same privilege be granted to Ireland?

The case Of Mayor Gould, who was nomin.
ated ior auditor by the Republicans of Mas
sachusetts and who subsequently sent a let
ter to the Republican State committee with
drawing his name because certain facts had
come to light which tended to impeach his
honesty, seems likely to create some disc
greeable complications. 1t seems that nm
der the election law of the State Mavor
Gould's letter to the State committee is not
sufficient to withdraw his name from the
ticket. The only way in which candidate
duly nominated can withdraw is by re-
quest in writing signed by him and acknowl-
edged before an officer qualified to take ac-
acknowledgement Of deeds, and filed with the
Secretary of State within " hours succeed
ing the last day fixed for the filing Of such
nomination papers. Mayor Gould has not
yet filed any such formal request as is re-
CURED, and his friends, regarding his recent
statement in relation to the charges against
him, complete yindication. are urging him
not to do so. 1t he follows their advice his
name Will remain on the ticket, and Mr..
Lsdd, who was substituted for him, will
nave TO get before the people by means of
nomination paper. Major Gould may
have made mistake in sending his letter
to the State committee, but having by that
letter to all intents and purposes withdrawn
MS name he ought not now to undertake to
reinstate himself by means Of tecbnicality.

CITIZENSHIP roo CHEAP.

Surgeon General Hamilton, OF the Marine

Of the Treasury gives the results Of tie visits
be has made to the principle foreign ports Of
emharkat0u OF immi grauts bound for the
United States. lie visited the ports of Naples
London, Liverpool, Glasgow, Bremen, Trieste
and Hamburg an1 found that al present There
is no systematic medical examination Of emf
grants NJ any T0rt Of cmuarkatiOp. Some Of
the steamship lines require their surgeons 10
make preliminary examination, which does
not compare with the examination which IL
made by the surgeons Of the Marine Hospital
Service when they arrive IN New York So
far as DIR. HamItOn's observation goes, he
thinks there Is no country IN tie world in
which citizenship Is so chenply obtained as in
this country, and hG also thinks that restrictive
measures against the incoming mass OF emf
grants is one Of the most important that can
be considered, viewed from either an economic
OF political standpoint and viewed from an
American standpoint, the Doctor thinks there
is little doubt ihat tun welfare 81 the country
demands more restrictive measures than the
present laws seem able 10 furnish. The adyO-
cacy Of restrictions upon immigration does not
necessarily, in the Doctors opinion, imply
hostility 10 foreigners nor adverse legislation
10 the Interests Of uatuIalized citizens now in
the country. The Doctor then cites cases in
Chicago, where Anarchists have created dis
turbances, and also the murderous Malta So
ciety in New Orleans aud thinks immigrants
Of this character should not be allowed to come
TO the country.

a WATER-HkUL,

When President Cleveland took the reius Of
the Government, committee was appointed in
the Treasury Department to overhaul the books
and documents OF that Department, 10 find the
great frauds which had been committed by the
Republicans from tho time Lincoln was in
augurated until Mr. Cleveland was elected.
This committee is still in existence, and is
working right along in the herculean task Of
cleaning the Department. During the canvass
it was claimed that thousands Of dollars had
been used 10 promote the success Of the Re-
publican party, out Of funds which belonged to
the Government. The committee has rs yet
made no report, but it has leaked out that so
far they have made q waterman. Some Of the
most expert accountants of the Treasury have
been engaged in the work, and a vast amount
Of books and documents have been searched to
find the supposed deialcatiOn. How much
longer the labors OF the committee will con-
time, and what may be the outcome Of the in
yestisation, cannot, Of course, be foretOld. But
judging fIom what has been done, the aCcu-
satiOns OF fraud are likely to fall TO the ground.

SUNDAY SHAVING.

The hotel keepers OF the city resolved to con-
test the adverse decision Of tho Commissioners
on their right TO open their shops on Sunday
morning for the accommodation Of their late
arriving guests, and last Sunday morning the
shops Of all the leading hotels were running.
The police looked in uVOu them, but made no
arrests, and no warrants have been issued up
to date. The Commissioners say that the hotel
keepers have been premature in forcing the is
sue, If one is 10 be forced for the Commissioners
have not instituted any prosecutions. So far
as the law is concerned, the Commissioners
have no option. 1t says explicitly that any
man who opens barbcr-shop on Sunday shall
besubjcct to fine of so, and the Commissioners
have no authority to suspend the law for the
hOtel-keepers or any one else. It seems, now
ever. that if any suits are to be begun they will
be ut the instance Of the proprietOrs of the
street-shOps, whose theory is that shavers can
just as well be accommodated on six daysof the
week, and will be il the law is enforced. To
allow the shops to open on Sunday they say is
simply compelling the BARRIERS to work half
day more for the same amount of custom and
money.

SCARE AT THE WHITE HOUSE,

While wOTkmen were engaged in cleaning
the carpet in the East Room Of the White
House OH Thursday. Nov. 90, they found be-
hind q heavy curtain an object that caused
their hair TO stand on end. The object looked
like a dynamite bomb and was handled very
gingcFly by one Of the colored pOrters The
object looked like piece Of gas pipo, with q
tiny fuse attached. It was decided to take the
alleged bomb to Police Headquarters, and a
cOlorcd man was ordered to pick it up and &C
company Mr.. DinsmOre to the Chief of Police
The man became so frightened that in his
nervousness he let the thing drop to the pave
ment, and everybody in that vicinity ran from
it, expecting TO be blown to pieces. AS the
object did not explode, the negro took hold of
the supposed fuse and drew it tenderly cut Of
the pipe when several yards Of string were
drawn out. 1t was found that the tube was a
soft lcadcn one, and contained a preparation
for the hands and face. Tho outside was made
Of blackened tinlOil, which made it look like
a piece of gas pipe.
