estimated that the white paper for the

Red Lodge, Mont.-The thriving city
of Red Lodge was the scene of an i'm
portant wedding ceremony on Monday
morning, 10Th inst At the hour of 10
a. m. Miss Katie Gillen and Mr.. Patrick
Fleming were united in marriage by
Rev. Father Coopnan. The bride, who
was assisted by her sister, Mamie Gil
len, is the daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
james Gillen, of this city, and is a most
popular young lady. The groom is one
of the many Fleming brothers, of this
place, and it can be truthfully said that
they are among the most popular young
men in Carbon county. James Fleming
was best man on the occasion. The
newly married couple have moved into
their new home and commenced to keep
house.
Red Lodge is one Of the liveliest towns
in the state of Montana. 1t is delight

Chief Secretary for Ireland who was pro-
claimed tyrant in advance because, he
is Mr.. Arthur Balfour.s brother and Lord
Salisbury's nephew. His first speech is
one of conciliation and good viii, rich
with promises of measures to promote
the material welfare Of Ireland. He will
do what he can to make the Irish tenant
owner Of Irish land. He will welcome
any non contentious bill for the relief OF
eyicted tenants which the irish them
selves will suggest. The house rings with
Irish cheers as this message OF peace
is delivered, and again when Mr.. Balfour
declares himself desiro,ls TO govern Ire
land on Mr.. John Morley's principles.
No home rule, of course To that Ehe
government will continue to offer an I'M
flinching opposition. Nobody but a III
natic expects them to do anything else.
That is what they are there for.
But Wi1ere is there a particle OF evl-
dence in the speeches either Of Lord Sal
isbury or of MIR. Gerald Balfour or OF any
ether minister Of hostility to Ireland?''
There is none. The hostility does not ax-
ist The effort to promote the. he.prosperity
OF Ireland has been just as constant
among Unionists as among Radicals, and.
far more fruitful and beneficial. 1t is
the confession Of Irish1nen themselves
that nobody ever did so much for them
as Mr.. Arthur Balfour. Why should we
not see facts as they are and admit them?
Unionist hostility TO Ireland consists in
refusing to allow knot Of Irish poiiti-
clans representing less than tWo-tnirds
Of the Irish people to break up the United
Kingdom, Cypress one section OF Ireland,
and ruin the whole under the pretense.
There are further objstt lessons both
for the English and fer us in the sordid
squabbles which go on inside the Nc
Carthyite ranks. Mr.. Dillon and Mr..
Healy are still contending for the con-
troll of the party. MI. Dillon has a ma
jcrity. He and Mr.. Healy Dandy accuaa-
tions and exchange bad language and
keep up their intrigles, and then Mr.
Dillon expresses his regret at what he
calls the ominous silence in America and
American Indifference to Irish grievaI-
ces. He may be thankful even for ST.
lence. If American politicians are not
yet emancipated from their dependence
on the Irish vote. that body of rejecting
Americans outside of politics who turn
elections one way Or the other are assert
ing their independence.
