IT looks very much as if the Blaine
boom was being manipulated solely to
keep other possible competitors off the
track in order that Mr. Harrison may get
all the necessary wires laid for rrnOm-
ination. When this becomes certain
look out for a mutiny in the republican
camp, but it will be too late, unless all
present signs are at fault, to prevent the
cOnsummation of Mr. Harrison's designs.
We would much prefer Mr. Harrison as
the republican candidate as he represents
everything that is most vicious in the
republican creed more fully than any
other one man in that party, and will
therefore be the easiest man to defeat.

WHILE the people of Germany are
hungry, they are compelled to pay the
kaiser's Mckinley taxes to protect the
land-holding war lord, his nobility and
army officers, from the competition of
''paurer" farmers of Iowa, Kansas, Hi
nois and Ohio. And at home these
same "pauper" farmers have to pay
another set of Mckinley taxes to protect
the plutocratic money lords of the re-
publican party from the German
"pauper laborers' who want to give
cheap goods in exchange for our bread
stuffs. Whether here or in Germany,
the man who works for Il living is the
victim of the same system, made by the
same kind Of law lords.

ton in the mass, on the grounds that
it aims to produce what, it is held, can
not be done successfully, all idle dead

it should be is, she maintains, to devel-

teacher is permitted to have should be
limited ia order that she may be able to
study the nature of every one commit

Bishop Brennan, of Dallas, Texas,
recently addressed long letter to John
j. McGinniss, editor Of the Brooklyn
Leader relating to union Of both
wings of the Ancient Order OF Hiberni-
ans. We give the following extract
and next weeks issue of TIE IRISH
STANDARD will contain Bishop Bren-
mans magnificent letter III full. He
says:
Let me remind the leaders Of both
wings of the Ancient Order that we
men are but merely mortal, the DAY may
soon come when our ashes shall be scat
tered before the winds of heaven; but
the memory Of our actions can never
die; it will carry down to posteli Y our
honor or our shame. We, the present
Irish generation have our characters,
our consciences, our whole race in our
hands. TO ourselves we must look; to
perseverance in a course Of temperate
but united exertion, to the blow we can
strike on prejudice by the force of rea-
SOD, and above all the unceasing exhl-
bitlon of our melito1lous actions as
citizens and as Catholics. If the Irish in
America unite, they will be credit to
themselves, a source of strength to the
American nation, that America will
honor and appreciate. Let the Irish 10
the old land become as one people and
soon the voice OF another Grattan will
ring through the long desecrated halls
of the old parliament house on Steph-
ems Green:
IL found Ireland On her knees, [
watched over her with paternal So
hcitude; 1 have traced her progress
from injuries to arms, and from arms
to liberty. Spirit of Swift! Spirit OF
Molyneuxl Your genius has prevailed!
Ireland is now nation! In that new
character l hail her! and bowling to her
august presence, say, Esto perpetual!

The National Commissioner of La.
Dor, Hon. Carroll D. Wright, in recent
public address on the subject of the
Statistics of Marriage and Divorce,
presented some startling figures relative
to the disastrous results of the loOseness
of our civil laws in regard to marriage.
He reviewed at some length the mar
riage laws of the severa, states, and he
found that in only sixteen states do the
laws require the recording Of marriages,
and he says this carelessness IS charac
teristic of the too general indifference
OF legislation on the subject.

The irish Soldier.

The Universe, abiding to the tradi-
tional eallantry of the soldier in the In
perial army aud the neglect with which
be is sometimes treated, says: ''The
Catholic soldier IN the British Army is
highly valued in front of the enemy.
No fellow can march to death with g
prouder military glee" as Sir Walter
Scott has testified in verse. He can be
depended upon in the stress Of combat.
From the days when he stormed Tarifa
IN his shirt sleeves under "Paddy''
Cough of Limerick to the inspiriting
strains of GARY Owen through the
long hazards, fatigues, and privations Of
the Peninsula down to the browning
fight of Waterloo, he was a hero, a
bright cherry lad to be buttered with
soft words and patted on the back.
The long piece did not demoralze him.
When hostilities were declared against
Russia he was to the fore. At the Alma
O'Connor won his Victoria Cross, at
Balaklgva Joe Malone earned the same
unrivaled dis:inction-both Catholic
Irishmen. at Inkermann the SSH cap.
tured a gun. Everywhere Pat wrote
his autograph valorously in his red
blood. When the Indian mutiny shook
the Empire in the East to it's base, the
County Down and Cannaught Rangers
and the Tipperary boys of the "Blue
Caps behaved themselves like paladins
of old. In our generation we have seen
what the Royal Irish did in Afghanistan
aud Telel Kebir and in the Nile expedi-
ton when they carried off the prize of
the silver boat for being best up the
river, and were the only regiment to
foot 1t across the Baynads desert.
Certainly Pat is most excellent and
trustworthy soldier--but in peace,
even when he is strict in discipline, in
telligent, and abstemious he is not made
so much of as he merits. There may be
disincl1nation to spoil him by kind
ness, but he does not petition for that;
he only claims common JUSTICE"

a friendly tap o. the night Of Nov. %,
1856, at stephens cell door and coon i
swung open with Breslin and BYrne
outside. Each Of them was armed. and
in the event of detection was determined
to fight to the death if necessary TO
effect Stephens escape. They were not
detected, however. Stephens scaled
the wall, and was hurried off by con-
federates in waiting.
At no time probably since Emmet's
instruction were the irish executive
authorities thrown into such disnay
and confusion as on this occasion. The
most desperate efforts were made to re-
capture Stephens. A thousand pounds
reward was offered. For three months
he was secreted in the house of woman
of humble means. Three months after
ward he drove one Sunday evening in
disguise in an open carriage with two
footmen behind through the streets Of
Dublin. The "coachman" and 'foot-
men, were picked I. R. B. men, and
were armed to the teeth.
STEPHENS was taken to the seashore
and escaped to France and thence to
America. Here he spent his energies
ogain upon the movement, but the
Fenians lost confidence in his promises
aud professions. He didn't venture on
Irish soil either to cong Ter or to perish
although he had held out promises
that he would. Again and again he had
announced that 1885 would see call to
arms and that he would perish or con-
quer on Irish soil.
He had no ambition, however, to
place himself once more within the
reach of the British lion. He bore
blame, derision and praise in silence.
He returned to France some years ago
and lived in humble circumstances.
He wrote at times for the Irish press.

gratifying to learn that the number of
