It is announced that q number of prom
inent Irish leaders will soon arrive in the
United States to explain to the American
people what the demand Of the Irish people
is. The general crJ is for Home Rule,
but that does not show clearly in
what respect English legislation is
inimical TO Irish interests. Every few years
. concession is made by the British gov
eminent. but recent events are proof that
they have failed to give satisfaction. The
Interior purpose of the Irish leaders is to
institute plan of peasant proprietorship.
In order TO accomplish this they will come
in conflict with the rights OF Irish land.
lords, and therefore, from an English
standpoint, the plan is Objectionable. But
the Irish people have never admitted that
the alien landlords have the rights of
ownership they claim by virtue of donation
by former English sovereigns.
That is not, however, the ultimate point.
The same objection might be raised
in many parts Of England, where vast
tracts were arbitrarily seized from persons
accused Of treason to the crown and con-
ferred upon favorites Of the reigning
power. The same objection exists in
Scotland. where even greater areas of
land are held by the descendants
of ancient families without the favor of
foreign potentates. The real objection is
to the fact itself of such lands being held in
bulk By few individuals: and the intsn-
ton Is to partition them. by process not
yet defined. among greater number.
II the experiment OF small holdings
should be tried it will have moro than an
insular importance. The only other coun-
try where peasant proprietary exists as
distinct class is in France. and there the re-
sult is not altogether satisfactory. II
il not denied that there is little. if
any. agricultural progress in France. The
primitive appliances of centuries back are
eth used; and with the exception of one or
two branches. the agricultural products of
France cut little figure in the worlds CON-
merce. Ifrural felicity is the end to be
reached, 1t may be maintained with some
force that peasant proprietary comes
nearest to it The peasants of sunny
France are provsrbially easy-eoing of
habit. are unambitious. and contentedly
enjoy the frugal profits Of their toll.
In temperament the ANAL Irish farmers
