THE executive of the national league of Great Britain has. issued to the branches manifesto signed by .Messrs J. F. X. O'Brien, M. P, and T. P. .O'Connor, M. P. It warns them that the struggle for home rule for Ireland has not closed with the victory won at the general election and the e-accession.t to power of a liberal home rule govern ment. "The home rule majority" says the manifesto, lis none too great, and the devotion of our liberal and radical allies, so well displayed at Newcastle, on-Tyne, will be tested at ,bye-elections not one of which can we afford to lose. It protests against the idea that the rest of the fight is to be left to Gladstone and his men," and calls upon the branches to assist the executive in pre- pairing for the supreme and decisive battle.

ONE of the leading painters of New York says that artists are just begin ming to learn how to paint moonlights He says that they, the other people, have not appreciated the persistence of local color after dark. "The Dutch painters and the old school Americans had one patent way of doing a moon light, and that was to make 1t of blue and white. It was cold and stupid and untrue. One night I was strolling in Central park as the moon came up, and I was astonished to find how much green there was in the grass and trees and yellow in the paths and gray in the rocks and bright tints in the flowers. It was toned down, but 1t was all there. It was a revelation to me, and have never painted blue and white moon light since"

IT is said that the fumes and exhala- tions from the sulphur springs of Colo rado can be distinguished at distance of fully twenty miles. The peculiarly pungent smellsresulting from bush and prairie fires may be perceived at dis tance of thirty miles or more. The de- icious perfume of the forests of Cey- lon is carried by the wind twenty-five miles out to sea, while in foggy wealth CT travellers one hundred miles from the land have recognized their proximity to the coast of Columbia by the sweet smell brought to them on breeze from the shore.

PROFESSOR HAUPT says that good average road, through rolling country, should never cost more than S7,000 per mile, and frequently not over $2,OOO. And the. expenditure pays. To pull one ton on macadam costs. just one-half. as much as on hard dirt, and one-fourth as much as on sand. It is estimated that in England improved roads have made it possible for three horses to do the work formerly done by four, thus saving $1OO,OOO, ,OOO. annually.

A Remarkable Discovery.

A resident of Ashland, who has just
 returned from a trip through eastern Oregon, according to the Portland Oregonian, reports that on the desert near Silver lake the site of an ancient city has been discovered. One side of the square has been traced for four or five hundred yards. The top is just above the surface and is about four feet wide, made of cement, similar to those of Arizona and Mexico. The city evil dently antedates the Aztecs and Toltecs. No geologist has yet visited the ruins. The cowboys have done a little pros pecting on their own hook. Among other things found is an imprint of the cement work, showing that the bod carriers of those days went barefooted. A cast of large-sized trowel was also found. It is quite likely the city was built upon the shore of Silver lake
 which is now distant about thirty miles

CYCLING of all kinds has become very popular in this country, but the love for ''wheels' has not yet become a craze, as it has in some parts of Europe. In London long tandem bicycles, capable of seating eight or more passengers, have been introduced, and one is now being used as a rival to the train or street cars. The owner of the vehicle occupies a front seat, col lects the fares and steers, but the pas sengers have to provide the motive power, and if they don't move their feet freely veryOpoor time is made or the journey. It is said that in London the seats arc booked and paid for a week in advance.

THE biggest fish story of the season comes from Guthrie, O. T., where it is claimed that a catfish was caught which had swallowed a negro baby lost but a few days before in the river. All that this story needs is but little artistic treatment and we would have a nine teenth century revival of the famous Biblical episode.

Homestead and the Tariff.
A CHAPTER of Very pInin Facts.

From the Boston Journal
Governor Russell was prompt to join the
other Democratic demagogues in their at
tempt to infame the passions of working
men against capital 10y depicting Mr.. Car
negie as a heartless millionaire, who had
wrung his wealth from the ''distress of
poverty among his workmen. Perhaps
if the governor had taken the trouble to
look into the facts, we should have been
spared that discreditable performance. One
of the governors most trusted organs and
one of the foremost assaiants of the tariff,
the Springfield Republican, has come to a
realizing sense of the folly of trying to Sc
cure point against "McKinleyism' by
representing it as responsible for the strike,
and it says editorially:
so far the question Of wages goes in the
Homestead trouble, il is doubtful if great labor
controversylwas ever based on so slender a cause.
In the first place the reduction made by the com
pany only affects about one-tenth Of the employees.
and then only to a very slight degree a rule.
Many of the men affected have earned very large
pay-in some cases it is asserted, as high as $40
and Sl5 day, and on piece work the greatly in
creased efficiency of new machinery introduced
would seem TO justify in view of the fall in the
prices of product, the reduction made On this
point the answer Of the men published Sunday is
silent. SO in the matter of reducing the minimum
of the scale to S23, below which selling price Of
produce wages shall not go, there could be no
great: objection in view of the heavy fall in prices
that has taken place"
We commend the foregoing statement of
the case, which is entirely fair and accu-
rate, to the thoughtful consideration Of
the governor, and We predict that after he
has taken in its meaning he will be some
night.
And now we should be highly pleased if
the governor or any of his organs would
accept our challenge to point us to any Eng
fish iron and steel working town where
such wages are paid as these which the
Carnegie men have been receiving. A few
months ago, when from $4,000 to 100, 600
English miners went out on strike because
they were unable to earn Sl.25 day at
their toll no Democratic paper in this
country expressed sympathy with those
hapless Victims of free trade. But now,
when three or four hundred high-priced
workmen, who have been receiving from
50 to SO day, strike and persuade their
fellows to strike because they cannot con-
troll the wages schedule, we have the Dem
ocratic press, with few exceptions, attribu-
ting the whole trouble to the tariff.
The protective tariff is not responsible
for the strike at Homestead. But it is re-
sponsibles for the creation of Homestead
and hundreds of other communities like
it, with thrifty populations, well-paid work
men and an entire absence of poverty. Let
our free trade contemporaries point us to
single English counterpart of Home
stead.
