How long is the Irish and English
press to be rnuzz'ed? How long are such
destroyers of female virtue as the Earl
of Euston and Lord somerset going to
be permitted to buy up judges and SEND
the exposers of their infamv to prison?
It is an outrage that the people OF Eng
land cannot allow to go unnotlced.
Editor Parke was committed to prison
for twelve months for publishing some
claim facts about this immoral and de-
graded earl, and his publications were
corroborated by four competent wit
nesses, yet the judge saw fit to take the
Earls unsupported testimony, and sent
enced Editor PaIke to prison for one
year. It is a crime in Great Britain
and Ireland for an editor to publish
what he can prove. During the past
two weeks nine Irish editors have been
arrested and committed to prison for
violations of the coercion act. The con-
viction of Editor Parke has caused
terrific uprising among the laborlng
classes. who were well acquainted with
Euston's character, and there promises
to be some loud talking throughout
England on this matter. The judge
has already come in for some able roast
inc with promises of more to follow.
A few such cases will convince the
English people that the aristocracy is a
mass of rottenness. and that laws that
are respectors Of persons must be re-
Dealed

BECENrLY compiled statistics show
that during the last ten years to every
forty-nine marriages performed iii New
JERSEY there has been one divorce. That
is nothing. A close reader of the Min
neapoiis newspapers would naturally
infer from the business done in the
Hennepin county district court, in this
line, that there are more divorces than
marriages here.

= AID FOR PERJURY i;I] / j I,

Every day more new light is being
thrown on the despe crate efforts the
London Times made to convict e arnell
and his faithful band Of followers OF
|complicitY III the PI@aix Park murders
and all the agrarian outrages that have
occurred in Ireland since the frst
branch of the Land Leagu ne was organ
lzed in that country. Thomas Brennan,
OF Denver. Colo. the first secretary Of
the league, has made public the history
Of the efforts of the Tunes in endeavor-
ing to manufacture P. j. Sheridan into
a witness against ParneH before the
London commission. In this cOnnec-
ton he has an affidavit from Sheridan
covering the principal points of the
negotiations between j. f. Kirby. an
agent of the London Times, and him
self. on the price to be paid for such
evidence; who it was would pay the
money; a list Of the question to be
asked him on the witness stand by
Joseph Soames, attorney for the Times,
and guarantee of absolute safety while
in London. Kirby offered Sheridan
$500. 600, if he would go to London as a
Times witness, and $4,000 additional
for his Colorado ranch. AS a guaranty
of good faith on the part of the Times,
Kirby offered to have $4,000 of the
500 600 placed IN an American
bank payable to Sheridan's order,
or his wife's, one hour after he
had left the witness stand. Attorney
Soames would prepare list of ques
lions for the witness to answer in order
that his evidence would support that
given by other witnesses. To force
Sheridan into the deal, Kirby told him
he (Sherldan) was on the list for assas-
sination. Sheridan played his cards
we'll. He was apparently IN earnest in
the IDEAL with KIRBY, and the latter gave
the whole scheme up, even going so far
as to admit that the government was be
hind the Times IN it's cowardly attack
on Pa1nell. Sheridan merely wanted
to get all the information he could from
Kirby of the methods the Times EN-.
ployed in getting up the case, and also
fo' the purpose of selling his ranch at a
good figure, as the Times was willing to
buy it. Could any plot be more IN
famous than the one the London Times
entered into with the English govern
ment to blast the character of an honor
able and upright man? There is moth
ing on this side of the bottomless pit
that can compare in any way with that
cowardly desricable and damnable plot;
it has no parallel in history and we hope
1T never will. Buying up witnesses;
the prosecuting attorney furnishing
them with list of questions to be an
swered as he directed, every means, the
most nefarious called into action to ruin
man whose whole ambition was to see
his country free. The English govern
ment has always been found on the
side of such INSCRIPTIONS vagabonds as
the editor of the Times. It has always
been government OF oppression and
ever willing to 60 hand IN hand with
the enemies Of ireland no matter who
they are.

CONVERTED TO HOME RULE.

1u0r0 Is d ldIkosSILou TOW UI0WluS LII
the Tory ranks in England which
thu eaten the complete disruption of the
party. The Duke of Marlborough, who
a short time ago married Mrs. Noel
Hamersley of New York, has published
series of articles on the abuses result
ing from the present Landlord system in
Ireland. He scores the landlords for
their seIfjshness in dealing with their
tenants, fol cling the last penny out Of
them to maintain themselves in splen-
dor and luxury either in London or on
the continent. He rightfully charges
them with enforcing the collection Of
high rents, which the tenants are not
able to pay, and in return for the lat
ter's generosity not a penny Of their
hard earned money is spent on these
vast estates. 1t is no wonder that SEN
timents such as these, coming from a
man who was always regarded as a rank
Tory, should fall like a thunderbolt on
the party who regarded him as staunch
supporter or their doctrines. One by
one the intelligent and humane element
of the Tory party desert the old ship.
They cannot any longer defend the
party that has so often violated its obi
cations and promises to the people;
they see that the only object the Tory
government had IN view is to promote
the personal comfort of the Irish land
lords and protect the office holders.
Marlborough, though not man that
can be held up to the public as an ex-
ample Of virtue or brotherlY love, has
nevertheless been moved by the relent-
lessness of the Irish landlords, and has
seen tit to attack them as no Irish Ma
tionalist has ever dared to. His brother,
Lord Randolph Churchill. feels the
dukes desertion from the Tory party
very keenlY, and has already set about
to effect a recon Citation, but the duke
has issued his main festo. and swears he
will stand by it. This is good news for
Gladstone and the Irish parliamentary
party. The desertion of this Ultra Tory
from the ranks Of the party with which
he has been identified 50 long, is sig
nlfcant to say the least. Il is perhaps
one Of the worst blows that Torylsm
has received since it came into power;
it means also that others will soon fol-
low the dukes example. As long as the
Tories could present solid front. so
long could they hope to remain in
power, but Wben DESERT ions such a. this

ELECTRICITY, NOT GABLES,

The city council has seen tit to grant
President Lowry permission to substl-
tute electricity for cables. There is no
doubt but the Fourth avenue line.
which has been operated by electricity
for some time, is the most popular line
IN the city, and is a complete success,
but of course the permaneDcy OF this
success remains to be seen. Mr.. Lowry
is given two years in which to test the
new motive power. and If it proves the
success that citizens hope for, it will be
accepted. and cable lines abandoned.
But should it tall to do what Is expected
of it. then the cable contract with the
city will be enforced and the electric
system withdrawn. Mr.. Lowry, how
ever, is confident that the new motive
power will operate on all the lines as
we'll as it has done on the Fourth ave
nue. line, and there is no reason why 1t
should not. Cable lines are expensive,
as we'll as noisy and dusty, while cleo
tricity is practically noiseIess and much
more rapid. Besides, there IS another
serious objection to cables that the
business man does not like, it is that
when car gets behind its schedule
running time, it cannot make up time
as an electric car can, and thereby de-
laws all the other cars on the line. This
is very ANNOYING, but it cannot be
avoided. OF course the overhead-Wlre
system is decidedly Objectionable, but
we have reason to believe, considering
the improvements that have been mace
in this field for the past six months,
that it il only question Of time when
these wires will all be placed IN con-
duits or removed entirely by substl-
tuting the storage battery system.
Boston is the only city N the country
outside Minneapolis and st. Paul, that
proposes to 60 into the electric business SO
on SO extensive a scale. The Ihomp
SON Houston company, VINO have the
contract for equlping the street cars OF
this city with the electric apparatus,
have also been engaged to lit up all the
street cars in the West End Of Boston
with similar apparatus at once. The
new motive power has been thoroughly
tested ID Boston and the people Of the 1e !.
Hub regard it as a great success. There

shortened form of Josue, which in the
Bible appears sometimes as Jesus"

Lo1d's case, 1t had, however, a pre-

name was announced to the Blessed
Virgin by the angel, and actually inn.

1t was Ills personal, whereas Christ
was His official name.
In all ages, of course, Christians have
spoken with devotion of this holy name,
and st. Paups words in the epistle to
the Philippians will occur to everyone.
The devotion received a new impulse
and took tangible form in the fifteenth
century. The Franciscan friar. st.
Bernardine of Siena, used to exhibit
before the people to whom he preached
a board with the holy name painted ON
it in the midst of rays, and he persuaded
a poor man, who used to paint cards
and had heen ruined by the saints SER
mons against gambling, to make q
living in another way-viz., by painting
the holy name. The new devotion was
examined before Martin w., prohibited
for time, defended by st. Jonn Capis.

pointment of Taylor of Ohio, Stewart of
Vermont and Bland of Missouri as con-
ferees on the antitrust bill. Bland said

and his determination. Hispersonal and
political integrity was beyond the
reach OF suspicion. Schemes, jobs, covert
efforts to secure public money were

MENACED SETTLEMENTS.
Settlers Still Fleeing From the Tongue
River Country.

MILES CITY, Mont, June 14.-Four
more families have arrived from the
menaced settlements in the Cheyenne
country, and a man just in, who struck
the road from the agency about forty
miles south of here, reports passing
three more families on their way and
number more following. There has
been no news direct from the scene for
two days, and what has happened no
one knows. Colonel Curtis, with Stock
Inspector Smith as guide, leaves this
morning for the agency, 105 miles
to the south. Curtis's mission is to
try and have Major Carroll at
the agency throw part of his force on
the Tongue river, where the bucks I'M
der Two Moons are in force, and disarm
them and return them to the reserva-
ton. AT the same time an investiga-
ton will be made as to the causes of the
Indians discomfort and what remedies
are needed. A petition to Secretary
Proctor, which after detailing all the
trouble with the Cheyennes asks for
their removal to the reservation and
then disarming them, was prepared to-
day and signed by all the settlers now in
town and leading people in this city, and
forwarded to Colonel Swaine for his in
dOrSement.

To Protect Miners.

WASHINGTON, June 14.-The house
committee on mines and mining today

the better protection of the lives of per-
sons employed in coal mining in the
territories. There are but three terri
tories that will be affected by the pro-
visions of the bill, viz: Alaska, Idaho
and Indian territories, as these are the
only ones in which coal is mined. The
bill provides for the appointment of
mine inspectors, for furnishing
the mines with machinery and
other appliances necessary to the
safety Of employees where these
are inadequate; compels owners or man
ayers to provide at least two shafts,
slopes or other outlets, separated by
natural strata not less than $50 feet in
breadth, by which shafts, slopes or out

shall always be available to persons en-
