WHY IRELAND Is rOOR.

A recent traveller through Ireland, Mr..
James Wood, who communicates the re-
suits of his observations TO the Friends
Review, finds the explanation of the
poverty of II Gland in the want of en-
ployment for her people, and mentions
some interesting facts bearing upon this
view. Mr.. Wood, says the Boston Jour
nal, saw twenty-five of Irelands thirty
two counties pretty thoroughly, and he
reports that everywhere in town and
country one sees able bodied men, singly
and in groups, idle from weeks end to
weeks end, simply because there is no
thing for them to do. In the linen man
ufactories of Belfast and the adjacent
districts of Ulster, in rope work, distil-
leries, shipbuilding and in all the mills,
factories and workshops of Ireland COM
bined, there were employed, according
to the Government returns of 1890, only
Ga, Ats people, All the rest of the popu-
lation of Ireland, except the few en-
gagged in meagre commerce and trade,
are trying to live upon the land.
Two centuries ago, woolen manufac-
lures fourished extensively in Ireland,
not only meeting the demand for home
consumption, but exporting products to
England and the Continent, and giving
employment to great bodies of people.
Why are they not there to-day? The
answer is written in English history and
it part of the story of English greed.
During the reign of William Ill, the
woolen manufacturers of England pc
titioned the Parliament and Parliament
in turn petitioned the Crown. The
Peers "besought his majesty to intimate
to his Irish subjects that the growth OF
the wooden manufactures there had been
and always would be looked upon with
jealousy in England, and if not timely
remedied might occasion very strict laws
totally to prohibit and suppress the
same" The Commons represented thai
''the English Parliament would be
| obliged to interfere unless the King
found means to make Ireland understand
its position" The King communicated
with the Irish Parliament, and the lat
ter under stress of the menaces con-
tained in the deliverances OF the English
Parliament, laid prohibitiye export du-
ties upon broadcloth, kerseys, flannels
and fringes, while the English Parlia-
ment passed an act prohibiting the ex'
port from Ireland of either wool or wool
en- manufactures to any other country
than England, and to any but six i'm
practicable ports there. The result was
| that the Irish wooden industries were
crushed and the operatives fled to France
and Belgium.
The extraordinary thing is that large
proportion of the Immigrants who come
to us from Ireland, leaving behind them
a country which cannot give them sus
| tenance because its Industries were
crushed by England, ally themselves at
once with the political party whose pol
icy plays into the hands of the English,
and proposes to sacrifice American man
ufactures to English interests.

Lord Rosebury, England's new pre-
mier and GladstOne's successor begins
bTayely. The Commons have voted to
abolish the veto power of the House of
Lords by vote of 147 to 145, and discs
tablishment is talked of for the English
Church in Wales. This is all very nice,
and may hoOdwink the shelving of Home
Rule for Ireland, but the Commons
might as well have passed an edict abol-
ishing the moon. Even here this vote,
although rescinded the next day, and
called joke, has started the specula-
ton as to the abolishment of the u. S.
Senate and return to a pure Democracy.
A Democracy, pure and simple, is an
idle dream, and the Senate will go about
the same time with the Lords. AS to
disesta6lishment of the English Church,
Americans would not object to it if the
proposal did not carry with it disendow-
ment, virtual confscation of the church S
property. Suppose the State of Massa-
chusetts should propose to abolish the
corporation of Williams college and di-
vide the endowments among the special
schools, industrial institutions, business
colleges, on the plea that a classical edu-
cation did not fit man for active life,
what would be said? The case is nearly
parallel if religious societies are substi.
tuted for so-called practical schools, in
the illustration. The endowments never
came from the State, but are the lega-
cies of pious churchmen, accumulated
during more than one thousand years,
and are on the same basis as our endow.

would think of dividing among other

Gen. Grout has made a notable speech
in Congress on the subject of pensions.
We note that the bill passed the House
in spite of Republican arguments for JUS
tice. Among other things Gen. GrOut
makes this comparison: There are still
uncoDsidered in the Pension Office
of the administration of the Pension Of
flee nnder the last Administration and
the present Administration is Shown by
the fact that, during the last fiscal year,
Gen. Raum, Commissioner of Pensions,
issued 81 $50 certificates, while under
the first six months of the present fiscal
year Com missioner LOchren has issued
only 1850. This shows that Raum
granted pensions four times as fast as
Lochren is doing. There is another side
of this work in which Judge Lochren far
exceeds Gen. Raum. 1t is reflections.
For six months, viz, from June to No
vember inclusive in 1893, Commissioner
Raum rejected 4S,399 claims and allowed
1926 Commissioner Lochren for the
same months in 1893 allowed 50, 1866, but
rejected 1888. In other words, Raum
admitted four cases just as often as he
rejected one, but under the present Ad-
ministration the order is entirely re-
versed, and under Lochren two cases are
rejected as often as one admitted. A
mournful fact in connection with the
matter is that, of this half million of
claims, II, 800 are annually being settled
by death. A long enough delay would
settle majority of the pending half
million claims by the undertaken and
not by the pension Office.

An agricultural writer has estimated,
says DR.. Haskins in the Vermont Watch
man. that the farmers of the United
States waste every year, by the wear and
tear of horse flesh and the loss of time
consequent upon the use Of the ordinary
narrow wagon tire, the enormous sum Of
three hundred million dollars. BY Sn
experiment recently made at the Ohio
State University, it was found that a
double team could draw, upon an ordI
nary wagon, fitted with three inch tires
Just twice as heavy a load as upon a
wagon with tie usual narrow tires, the
trial having taken place upon an ordinary
earth road. 1t has been found also that
the wide tire helps to keep the earth
roads in order, by rolling them fiat aud
smooth instead OF cutt ng them into ruts.
This is so well understood in old coun-
tries. that some European countries lay
a tax on the narrow tires, and the money
thus accumulated is spent in keeping
the roads in repair.

The hard times of the past year will
be greatly increased by the passage of
the infamous Wilson Bill. Every possi-
BILE effort should be made to defeat the
measure-to delay it in any event. We
can better afford few months of uncer-
tainity than four years of general adver-
sity, suffering and distress. Under the
most favorable circumstances, the Will
son Bill, if it become law, cannot be
changed until the summer of 1897. We
earnestly recommend that you will urge
United States Senators, irrespective of
party, to defeat, or by every parliament
tary method, delay the passage of this
measure. On November 9th. the people
will have an opportunity to speak-their
verdict must be awaited.

DEACON WM. q. HAWKS.

1t becomes our sad duty TO record the
death of one of our oldest and bes
known citizens, W hich occurred Sunday
morning, the 4th inst Deacon William
E. Hawks was born in Bennington, Oct.
3lst, 1911, his father, william, residing
about mile west of the WalloOmsac
House on the road to Troy, the home of
EIeazer Hawks, his grandfather r. who wa
in the battle of Bennington. He was the
youngest and last of a large family of
eleven children. He attended school at
the old Academy at Bennington Centre,
and when about fifteen years old came
to North Bennington in the capacity OF
clerk for Daniel LoOmis, in his store.
He was active and faithful, and when
seventeen, was made head clerk with re-
sponsibilities accordingly. About this
time Miss Samantha butcher, young
lady of this place, went to Albany to at
tend meeting, and on coming home,
interested young Hawks in what she had
heard and they started Sunday school,
the first in this section, in the old Bap-
tist church IN SALISBURY near the ceme-
terry, she to do the outside work and she
to do the praying" From that time
there was school in the old church and
then under the new organization of the
Baptist church here, Mr.. Hawks being
superintedant for more than thirty years
From the sale of liquors in the store al
this time, he washed to see the expense
incurred by farmers and others in the
drink habit which so largely prevailed
from its relative proportion in the store
accounts. The attention of several o
his customers was called to the subject
and small number banded together
pledging themselves to abstain from the
use of the stronger kinds, and thus som'
progress was made in the line of tenn
perance. AS the work progressed herr
and otherwheres, he ever continued to b,
a firm advocate of its principles, believ
ing both in moral and legal suasion

From an Old Letter.

The following lines were written April
20, 1861, by n citizen of this county, to his
mother in Kentucky. The writer was
then a young man, with the fondest
attachments to his "old Kentucky home"
He was afterward a captain in the Con-
federate army. After the war he returned
to this county, where he resided until his
death, which ccurred early in the sos:
TO MY MOTHER.
IA sad heart, owned by a mothers boy,
Was filled with the sweet, ieeting spirit
of Joy.
While sitting alone in solitude's chair,
Weary and tired from many n care,
His mind had wandered DER many a mile,
And his heart was destitute OF joy aud
smile.
lie thought of his home and the friends he
loved dear,
And he felt that no kindred spirit was
near
But how soon did this heart its sorrow
And leap upwith gladness, from dreaming
awake;
He unclaimed the demon of hideous
despair,
And let loose the ties that bound him to
care.
For a message had come with the spirit of
If
To gladden. the heart OF a kind mothers
boy.
He knew not from whom the message had
came,
Till he broke the tight seal and read her
dear name.
How kindly she spoke of one friend and
another,
OF the loved ones at ZONE, each sister and
brother;
And the charming old place, he loved
most of all,
Many a memory did the message recall.
OF flowers that had withered and zone
with the gale,
That seemed as familiar as a twice told
tale.
That dear old place ] can never forget;
Twill make many a page in memory yet.
You must send that message again to the
boy,
For it always will bring those feelings of
joy;-
AND send it more often, again and again,
And tell him your feelings in that holy
strain.
And burden it more that the strangers
may feel
That he will have a good treat when he
breaks the neXt seal.
And now farewell to the muse and each
joy,
And write a long letter to the fer-away
boy"

ATTEND THE B. OF II. MEETINGS.

ATTEND THE b. OF II. MEETINGS.
Last week the INTELLIGENCER gave
much space to the discussion of the
Board of Trade, for which no apologies
are needed-and we make none. The
grand banquet, which we were proud
to pronounce a success, is over, and
the board is again at work on material
questions. The banquet was not given
to satisfy the appetite of the members,
and not wholly to celebrate a successful
year. The main object in giving it
was to call together the business men
of Lexington, and urge them to awake
to their opportunities.
At its regular meeting, last Tuesday
evening, the attendance was good, but
not as good as it should have been.
This is an institution that every citizen
of the city should encourage. With
our business men well organized, and
working in harmony, much a be ac-
complished which would be impossible
for individual effort. Many little
things that are wrong could be righted,
and the organization can be made a
power in city improvement. With our
limitless coal fields, our fertile farming
lands, our colleges and public schools,
we have advantages to offer TO those
desiring location that but few cities
have. Business men, arise! Shaxe
off yourlethargy, and put your shoulder
to the wheel! Attend the Board OF
Trade meetings; go there and associate
with your competitor; he is a better
man than you have judged him to be.
If nothing else could be accomplished
by the Board of Trade than the bring
ing together of our business men, on
one evening of each week, it would be
a grand thing. You are busy ut your
place of business, all week, and get to
see little and know less of your fellow
business men. You can make it profit
able to exchange views with him. Nc
man can shut himself up IN a shell and
be successful. Go to the meeting,
Tuesday night. Try it just once
Don't go to find fault; judge it with
common sepse, and not with youI
prejudices. II you are interested in
Lexington, join the organization, and
render that assistance which yoU cen
easily give, and which this city has a
just right 20 demand.
