HOME RULE FOR IRELAND.
Advice From Senator Hoar to Erin.


Advice From Senator Hoar to Firms
American Friends.
WORCESTER (Mass.J, Aug. 24.-Rev. DR..
j, L. Conaty received a letter to-day from
Senator George +. Hoar, now travelling
in Europe, dealing with the home rule
question in Ireland and the duty of Irish
Americans in aiding the Irish Represen-
tatives in Parliament.
Senator Hoar says: ST think the Ameri-
can friends of home rule for Ireland are
III position to exercise great influence
upon the future progress of that cause
and TO avoid what seems to me a VERY
jority of foruy-two, has to encounter a
hostile House of Lords, hostile press,
the hostile sentiment of the upper classes
and the universities, and it is rumored a
hostile Queen. If Gladstone were to be
disabled or to die, it is hard to see where
a leader could be found under whom the
somewhat discontinued elements could
be united i'll any steady policy. If the
Irish friends OF home rule make unreal
sonable demands, or even if they 90 to
the full extent of what are clearly reason
able and just demands, and Gladstone
should in that way lose his majority, or
fail TO accomplish anything, the success
OF home rule must be postponed to very
distant day indeed. 1t seems TO me, there
fore, that America Fought to utter her
voice, which has been so influential in the
cause of home rule, counseling the Irish
Representatives to be content for the time
being with taking one firm, forward step,
even If they shall not for the time being
gain anything which they desire. Such
a stop, once taken, Will never be retraced -

Chico, Aug. M.-There is great howl
going up among the sports on account OF
Sheriff Anderson keeping strict watch
and allowing no gambling of any descrip-
ton to run. Even the wheels Of fortune
are stopped. But the best citizens are
jubilant, and Notwithstanding some think
the fair will be a failure, the attendance
and interest manifested prove otherwise.
The display in the Pavilion this morn
ing is very fine. The whole district is
interested and each Individual is striving
to Guido the other.
The attractions at the Driving Park are
more numerous than ever before. The
exhibition of poultry this year is espe-
clally hne and 1t seems as though every
person who owns a cock and hen have
placed them on exhibition.
The stock parade this morning was eX-

The races for this afternoon are three in

LONDON, Aug. 24.-The Chronicle this
morning gives the following as the main
lines of the home rule bill believed to
have been agreed upon between Glad
stone, Mccarthy and Dillon;
First, that the present land legislation
shall not be disturbed for five years; sec
ond, that the police and judiciary shall be
IN the hands OF the Dublin Parliament;
third, that the balance in the Irish Church
fund shall be at the disposal of the Irish
Legislature; fourth, that the English Re-
ceiver-General of the bill of 1886 be dis
pensed with; fifth, that on the other hand
there shall be only one customs depart
ment, and the Irish Parliament shall not
have the power to levy separate duties;
sixth, that the only veto shall be the
royal veto, to be exercised on advice of
the English Ministry; seventh, that
thirty Irish members shall be retained at
Westminster
The Chronicle believes that Gladstone
abandoned with great reluctance the idea
OF the Receiver in Difference to
the wishes Of the McCarthyites.

how to increase the revenue of the

The famous smuggling schooner Hal
cyon sailed from Victoria last night with
$500 pounds of opium and sixty Chinese.
An agent of the Treasury Department,
who has had the vessel under surveil-
lance for several days, reported these
facts to the authorities at Washington,
and orders have been issued by the de-
partment notifying all revenue officers
on the Pacific Coast to be on the alert to
intercept the vessel.
The crew is supplied with firearms and
ammunition.
The supposed destination of the vessel
is the Oregon or California coast. The
opium cargo is valued at $4,000, and il
the cruise is successful profit OF $4,000
will be realized.
The Halcyon is one of the fieetest
