West which they are trying TO rent to
agriculturists. It is the importation Of
system that has made Ireland poverty
stricken and helpless, and to that we OBJ
ject strenuously. The national domain
belongs to the people of the United
States. Congress has no right in equity
to vote to corporations such large land
tracts to do with as they please, without
a saving clause that will prevent just
what is now occurring, the concentration
of large quantities of land in the hands
of few individuals to be used for selfish
purposes and to the public injury.
THE GAZETTE is unalterably opposed to
absentee landlordism, whether in Ireland
or America. 1t would make the drones,
the members of that class who fatteu
upon the necessities of the poor, work
for living or starve, as most of them
would if compelled so TO do. AS our cor
respondent truly says, the land question
is one that will have to be settled in the
very near future. That settlement can
not come too soon.

IN MARCH.
Jewish Geological Seminary.

NEW YORK, March l6.-The biennial
convention of the Jewish Geological
Seminary association was held to-day IN
Cooper Union, Joseph Blumenthal PEE
siding. Seventeen congregations Of New
York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Pitts
burg, San Francisco, Galveston and New
Haven were represented. Among the
delegates were Dr.. Cyrus Adler, Of
John Hopkin g university, Baltimore,
and J. Pollock. of Galveston. President
Blumenthsl in his address spoke hope
fully of the prospects of the
seminary. There are now fourteen
young men in the seminary
which they hope to send send out fully
equipped with secular and Hebrew
learning, to take their places as teachers
in Israel. It was necessary, to secure
the best results, that the teaching fOrcs
should be increased, that a well equipped
library should be provided, and that the
seminary should have q building OF its
own. No work, he said, has ever been
attempted in this country more fraught
with interest and Importance to Judaism
and to the future credit of American
Jews than that in which this
seminary is engaged. The report Of
the board of trustees showed on Janu-
airy 10, 1888, there was q balance on
hand of S6l53.21. The total receipts
since, including this balance, amounted
to Sl3 ,052 81, and the expenditures were
SITS %, leaving a balance Of Sj30+ IS.
The following trustees were elected to
serve for six years: DR.. a. Frieden-
valid, Baltimore; Edward T. ROthes-
child, Philadelphia; Newman Cohen,
d. Nj. Pisia, S. J. ArmOulski, d. P.
Hayes and Louis T. Bush Of New York.

BELL SHOULD ACT.

Bell county should now be in the midst
of a general move TO get mp display for
the Spring Palace. There will not be
great deal in the line of products of this
year growth that can be mustered up,
but enough can be found to give at least
an idea of the county. Again, now Is
the time to agitate the county fair. This
year will be repetition of last if the fair
is put off until the people have nothing
else to do. If proper steps are not taken
now to organize fair company and to
get up list of premiums and the date of
the fair fixed for some day that rain
and cold may not interfere with the
programme, IL would be better TO call the
thing dead and let it go without flu
neral. It is not too much to say that
three or four days fair with no more for
exhibition than Bell county has yet mus
tered up is altogether too time; il makes
the SOUP too thin. A few pounds of but

The Landowner a Tenant.

Daniel n. Wing, in Popular Science Monthly
for March.
Let US see if anything more than oceu-
patton, by successive individuals, is con-
templated by social law, or by statute
law in England or America. In En-
gland the proprietary ownership of all
land is by common law in the people as
represented by the king, the trustee
under the social system of all their COM
mon interests, rights, and properties.
In the United States it is vested directly
in the people. By the constitution and
statute of New York state, ''the people
of the state in their right of sovereignty
are deemed to possess the original and
ultimate property in and to all lands
within the jurisdiction of the state. -
This l understand to signify precisely
what the common law OF England and
the universal law of nature are; namely,
that all property in land was originally
vested in the people in common; and if
there ever happens a time when no per-
son Is 10 occupation of any portion there
of the tenancy in common OF the whole
community Immediately goes on again
just the same as when, after the first
occupant or squatter had reliDquished
his temporary occupancy, the whole
community was again in possession,
every man having the right to occupy it,
but all IN common. So l assert that
private ownership, so called, is not a
proprietary quality 1t extends TO aud
includes only the use; the absolute
ownership of all land being, in fact, in
the community composed of all indi-
yiduals

A Wonderful Cure?
Buffalo IN. Y. Times.

The Christian scientists are putting
public credulity to a high tension in
Wisconsin. A Chicago professor of
Christian science is reported to have
cured'a sick horse at Eau Claire that had
been given up by veterinary surgeon.
The pethod is very simple. The owner
Of the steed teleeraphed to Chicago that
his horse was sick. The ''professor'
wired back that he was treating the ami
NAL, thinking very hard. In five hours
the horse was well and eating oats. A
great science, indeed. The same rem
edy that applies to cancer, the tooth
eche or q wart on the lobe of the left ear
operates on an improving toenaIl, bis
tered heel or a skinned shin. Wonderful
is Christian science. And yet Buffalo
has hundreds of weak minded people
who believe that Christian science pro-
fessors are not frauds. Is 1t not strange
that anything mysterious or idiotic. or
that appeals TO the superstitious catches
so many people?

SOME interesting experiments were
made in the navy yard at Washington
with the new explosive (emmensltel and
smokeless powder (gelbite), the inven-
tons of DR.. Emmens. A can of en-
mensite weighing sixty pounds blew up a
raft OF fifty large tImbers, anchored 500
feet from shore, and a cartridge filled
with this terrible stuff broke in pieces an
iron plate foot square and a half-inch
thick. This substance is said to be secure
from premature explosion, and in this
quality excels all other explosives. Gel
bite which is brown paper saturated with
emmensite, used as a cartridge loaded
in q rifle and fired, made no smoke or
noise, and yet had the same penetration
as the ordinary shot. Smok eless battles
and silent death missiles would rob war
of much of its glamour.

Mr.. REED IS attempt to demolish the
stronghold of precedent by witticism Is
puerile. In an article written by him in
the March number of the North Ameri-
can he speaks of the position taken by his
opponents as the doctrine of the invisi-
bility of the visible. If the presence
of members is not manifested by answer
ing to roll-call, then il would be proper
to use sight and not hearing to determine
their presence or absence, but according
to Blaine, Garfield. even Mr.. Reed him
self, the custom of response as proof of
presence, is sanctioned by usage, and
defended by each of these men. Ridi-
cule is a powerful weapon, but even its
shafts are pointless when directed against
an airy fabric OF the imagination. The
"visible'' has never entered into the
argument, unless by the speaker him
self; custom, that by its strong support
and unvaria bleness has become unwrit-
ten law, is the defence of those opposed
to Mr.. Reed g rulings.

ALIFN LAND BOLDTyG

A gentleman writing to THE GAZETTE
calls attention to the purchase By wealthy
Americans of large tracts of land in Scot
land for sporting purposes. This in re-
ply TO an editorial in these columns on
alien land holding in the United States.
The points he makes are worthy OF
thoughtful consideration. THE GAZETTE
does not believe alien land holding should
be permitted either here or across the
water. There is this difference, however,
between the conditions that obtain here
aud in Great Britain. The wealthy
American TO whom our correspondent
refers has not purchased the land to rent
again, while he, residing out of the
country, lives in royal style upon the
rent coming from oyerworked ten
ants. The objection OF THE GAZETTE
lies wholly to the obtaining by foreigners
