Confidence Restored, Although There IL
Sill Discomfort in the Army.
BUENos AYREs, April 4-The excitement
that has prevailed here for some days past
in consequence of the fears that the Radicals
were about to attempt to overthrow the
Government, is quieting down, and it is be
lieved that the decisive action of the author
tiles in ordering to the city large detach.
ments of artillery and cavalry has had the
effect of putting a damper on any revolu.
tiona1y ideas entertained by the Radicals
To-day telegraphic and postal communica.
ton has Deen restored, and, save for the un.
usually large number of soldiers about the
streets, the city wears its normal aspect 1t
is believed that no further trouble need be
anticipated.
The state of siege proclaimed on Saturday,
In consequence OF political troubles, will
probably be maintained until May, when
Congress meets, although it may be raised
in "a hours. The Radicals, it is said, may de-
eide not to vote at the May elections on the
ground that they were unable to complete
their organization. Under any circum-
stances the Radicals would be shown to be
in great minority, and some OF the more
cautious of that element would be glad of a
pretext to avoid risklng their lives at the
polls. Although there is considerable dis
content in the army with the Government,
especially with the Minister of War, it Is
not likely to prove sufficient to lead many
of the officers OF men to actually revolt,
With the military remaining loyal conf
dence will rapidly revive.

THE WEARING OF THE GREEN
By Brave Irish Soldiers Causes . Live'y Tilt
in Parliament.

-
in Parliament.
LONDON, April 4.-In the House of Com
mons to-day Patrick OBrien revived the
question of the wearing of the Shamrock on
st. Patrick's Day by Irish soldiers in the
British army by asking whether Mr.. Stan
hope, Secretary of State for War, was aware
OF the fact that the Northumberland Fusi-
leers, whether they were Irish, Scotch or
Welsh, were obliged to wear a rose on st.
Georges Day. Mr.. O'Brien also asked
whether the Government would provide for
the wearing of national party emblems or
allow all nationalities to wear their respec-
tive favors on their national festivals. Mr..
Stanhope replied that the rose had been the
badge of the Northumberland Fusileers
since 1915 The wearing of the emblem had
no political significance and he saw no rea-
son to interfere with the custom. Mr..
O'Brien was not satisfied with the reply of
the War Secretary, and he intends to con-
tinue his badgering upon the first occasion
that offers.
The Hon. Dodgson P. Madden. Conserva-
tive member for Dublin University and At
torney General for ireland, said that there
are now imprisoned in Ireland under the CO.
ercion act only five persons, and they had
been convicted of unlawful assembly. No
cases of boycotting existed. This statement
was greeted with Conservative cheers.
Mr.. Thomas Sexton-1s it not that because
the coercion act is q failure and has been
abandoned?
Mr.. Madden-Certafnly not
Mr.. William O'Brien-Is there any strug
gle that was proceeding prior to the passage
of the coercion act that is not going on as
before? Irish cheers.1
Mr.. Madden-I cannot answer that general
question. but the figures l quoted show the
usefulness of the act. CONSERVATIVE
cheers

the Catholics in France. The Pope con-
demns the Jesuits for causing scenes in the
Chamber of Deputies, while at the same time
he has notified France OF his intention to
maintain liberty in the pulpit.

the unceasing intrigues of the Monarchists
to restore the old regime. and emphasize
the necessity for the formation of conserva-
tive societies throughout the provinces
aiming to secure religious peace by the sup
port of the Republic. His Holiness recon-
mends the issue of conservative repub-
lican electoral catechisms in order to coun-
teract radical influence.

The Oskaloosa herald., 1892-10-27

The people of this district will re-
joice to be presented with the record Of
Congressman Whites stewardship even
at this late date. 1t is not often that
congressman can serve through a
long session of congress without let
ting his constituents know he is there
until he begins to get ready for the next
campaign. But the present congress-
man from the Sixth Iowa District has
accomplished this feat. His attitude
in congress was the same as his atu-
tude on the stump now, he was WU' h
ing for Erred White" He accepted
the hOnors of Office as personal eleVa-
ton. White took his seat in congress,
and never was heard of there or in the
the district until springtime came with
its heralding of the November election.
Then be made speech-'for Fred
White" He made two speeches, both
"for Fred White" He made speech
on the navy "to catch the Quaker vote
with" at home, "for Fred white" He
made speech on the silver bill to
catch the Peoples party voters at home
-"for Fred White" 1t is an un-
necessary hardship to send Mr.. White
all the way to Washington and deprive
him of his home comforts and quietude
simply to represent Fred White, and
the voters of the district who are kind
hearted and humane psople, but. who
want to have more than one man in
the district represented propose to per-
NIT their exclusive congressman to
keep on representing himself, but in
the freedom OF his own broad acres in
Keokuk county. and send real repre-
sentation c. 80 district and its inter-
ests to congress in the person of Major
Lacey.
The Oskaloosa herald., 1892-10-27

1t is locally very crafty ing to note
the deep interest generally felt here In
the candidacy of Major Lacey for Con-
gress. Before his first term as repre-
sentative Of the people Of this Dis
trict, no man was known better in this
county and none was more esteemed as
a citizen and nelghbOr than John f .
Lacey. Those who knew him best ad-
mired him most, and not more for the
keen power Of his intellectsthan for
the high qualities Of his character.
His personal record is absolutely pure
and untarnishsd, and to an extent that
not even the insinuation of malice or
polical envy has dared to touch. His
life here as citizen has been In keep
ing with the purest and highest ideal
of citizenship in all ways. He has
been close student not only in the
necessary professional sense but be-
cause his ability has been of the kind
that sought knowledge for the love OF
1t, and retained it to the enriching OF
his own life and that of his associates.
His standing as man and citizen has
been such as has won for him the ad :
mjration and esteem of all men. When
no was elected to Congress in 1888 1t
was but natural that man Of his re-
sourceful mentality and trained power
of thought should take immediate
rank In that greatest debating body in
the world. and be useful in proportion
as he took rank to the people whom he
represented. The whole country
knows this was the fact, and Q few
chattering campaign liars can say moth.
ing that the public Will believe in de-
niai Of this fact. 1t was a matter Of
free and general Comment in Washing.
ton and throughout the country that
Major Lacey's position was anomalous
for q new member, and that his ready
recognition was due 20 his own great
abilities as shown on the door OF the
House and in committee work. The
people Of this District have had ether
good and efficient congressman, bnl
they have never had one so peculiarly
adapted to render the best possible SER
vice and be Of the greatest possible use
fulness as is Major Lacey. His one
term has served to acquaint him with
the routine OF legislative mstheds, and
to give him valued asquaintancs and
influence. He viii take Up he work
now a. an old and expsFisnced msmbsr
and the voters Of he cid SIKH propose

Ole of our Democratic exchans

-OAe OF our Democratic exchanges
comes to our table all red ringed about
an item Of its own about deserters from
the Union army sometimes being put
on the pension roll for wounds or in
juries received before deserting. The
law has been judicially declared favor
able to this class of men. They should
not be on the roll at all, because their
act Of desertion cannot well be excused.
But Of the several that we know of
in this section each one votes and
howls for the Democratic party, and
has done so ever since they skedaddled,
so far ss we know. They are some
times used as what soldier sentiment
is, but then the boys "wink the other
eye" and say mix" Two Of this class
have filed afldaVits in Washington that
they were led to desert by reason Of aid,
advice and place given them by Copper
headss-then not at home belOw-and
in this way they have contributed some
sworn facts about those days when SOL
dier's widows were insulted by some of
these unhelled cattle with the remark
at served John right to be killed, to 60
down South" This nation is forgiving
and long-suffering, and the Copper
head reign proves it.
