NO RAY OF HOPE.

Justin Mccarthy tells the Irish mem
bers that they are themselves RESPONSE
BILE for the return of the UnfOnists to
power, and appeals to them, although
somewhat late, to cease their wrangling
and get together. One would think that
it would not be necessary for the issu-
ing Of a formal manifesto, which MIR.
Mccarthy has done III this matter, to
and the disastrous effects Of their petty,
unreasonable and incomprehensible
quarrels. Think Of such men as Dillon
and Healy and Redmond and Harrington
and others fighting for the supremacy
/ Of their own little factions while the
great cause In which they are all sup
posed to be interested lies PROSTATE,
appealing for redress, and the strug-
Cling masses, who are driven hither and
thither by opposing forces, see no ray
o. hope as long as the contention con-
tinues.
Ut seems evident also that the accuse
ton Of MIR. Healy, that John Dillon had
sold out Tyrone to the English. did not
contain a particle Of truth, and the ac-
cusation was made, in all probability,
for the purpose OF gaining little tenn
porary advantage. And these are the
gentlemen who style themselves states
men. Almost any man can guide q ship
in smooth waters, but It requires the SER
vices Of trained mariner to conduct
her safely through storm. And Ireland
is now passing through q tornado Of po-
2litical storms and misfortunes, and vet

/ Affairs pertaining to the Catholic school
question in Manitoba have not undergone
much change of late, but it is rumored
that If the local government refuses to
give to4the Catholics the rights that be-
long to them In this matter, and granted
to them by the articles Of confederation,
that the governor will dismiss Premier
Greenway and his cabinet.
: Such proceeding would be an unusual
one. but the executive has the power to do
so should he feel that the occasion de-
mands it. It is evident that the Catholics
of the province will not be snubbed, die
tated to and trampled upon simply be-
cause the heads of the local government
do not believe in separate schools. They
are backed in their struggle by the Cath
olics throughout the dominion, and par
ticularly so by nearly all the represent
atives of the province of Quebec, and
should they fail in maintaining what
rightfully belongs to them trouble may be
expected.

4 KNOCKED OUT SILVER.

4 Iowa has held its Democratic state
convention and nominated Judge w.
Babb for governor. Unlike Missouri and
Illinois, the delegates for the gold stand.
ard we're in a majority, the vote on roll
call standing s511za to 4201s. 3. q.
The most prominent features of the
platform directly affecting the state
were the condemnation Of the Mulct law
as being unfair between communities
and imposing hardships upon property
owners, while compromising the honor
of the state In declaring the sale OF
liquors a crime and condoning the Of
tense for a money consideration. A de.
mand is made for local option high Ii.
cense law. The election of United
States senators by a direct vote of the
people is also demanded.
The only comfort the Democratic free
silver men can have in the Hawkeye
state is the improbability of the Demo
cratic ticket being elected. Such comfort
as that may be Of the coolest kind, but
it seems to be the situation at present.

I. coxEY FOR GOVERNOR.

OF late not much has been heard OF
Gen. Coxey, the gentleman who was to
have marched on washington with 100000
men In order that they might shake them
fists at the government and demand un-
limited supplies of money or unlimited
supplies Of bread. Coxey, all will be re-
member, got to Washington with an army
Of hungry and tattered men, and all the
comfort he received from the government
was to keep off the grass Ia front Of
the White House. But although Coxey
failed in that expedition he was not van
quished by any means. Last week he was
nominated for governor by the Populists
of Ohio, and should he get votes enough
he may be heard from again.
The platform upon which he stands is
an interesting one. It is an affirmation
of the principles enunciated by that party,
in Omaha. It asks for nom interest bear
ing bills and good roads throughout the
country. It says that enough legal tender.
paper money should be issued to put the
country on a cash basis, and that there.
should be free and unlimited coinage of
silver. The present public monopolies
should be nationalized, and United States
bonds should bear no interest. It de-
nounces the Imprisonment Of Debs as
contrary to the right of trial by jury, and
favors law against the payment of any
debts in gold. It demands the immediate
adjustment Of national! banks, and favors
a per diem service pension law.
For the state Of Ohio he wants the
referendum plan adopted, salaries re-
duced, reform in the tax laws, eight hour
days, election Of all officers, state and ma
tional by direct vote of the people, con-
troll Of the liquor traffic by the state with
out profit, and a number Of other things
not Of general interest Y
The trouble with Coxey's platform is
that it is too broad for any one man to
cover while standing upon it, and besides,
it is sd thin in places that he is liable to,
fall through it. He will not succeed Nc

A NEW; DODGE.

Ii "a II u = ! ) i 3
The rigid Sunday closing law ID New
York does not prevent any one from rum
mig a restaurant on Sunday and serving
the guests with all the liquor they de-
\ sire. In accordance with this idea a ge-
MUS has come to the front and invented
steaks and chops and vegetables sof all
kinds made from India rubber which are
fastened to the plates and dishes, and
walters can be seen hurrying about with
this imitation food, having in one hand
q cluster Of mugs Of beer or any other
beverage ordered. OF course, the steaks"
and vegetables are never eaten, but to
all appearances q restaurant is in full
progress, and thus the devil Is easily
whipped around the stump. The various
kinds OF "food" thus prepared are such
skillful limitations Of what they are sup
posed to be that they deceive the eye
while they could not deceive the teeth.
The genius who invented the rubber
goods is entitled to public recognition.
It is another proof Of the saying that the

IN O'NEILL's MEMORY. s

Gen. John O'Neill, the hero of Ridge
way and we'll known throughout the
United States In his lifetime, has had a
monument erected to his memory in
Omaha. The work was accomplished by
the Irish Nationalist Of that city, assist
ed by their brethren of Colorado.
O'Neill was a man who was brave to
recklessness. He had an undying hatred
of England, hence his raid into Canada
in 1865 and his abortive effort to again
overrun the country in 1870 and at still
later period. Finding his efforts useless
to crush England by attacking Canada,
he abandoned his warlike schemes and
began the work of colonizing his country
men in the West. In this undertaking he
was somewhat successful. In Nebraska
a furnishing town bears his name, and
one of its most peculiar features is the
or rather almost inexhausti-
BILE array of Irish names one reads. on it's
business signs.
He was born in the county Tyrone, Ire
land, and is described by one who knew
him intimately as admirably adroit in
action but of a very mediocre ability in
council. All he cared for was to come to
blows with the English for.whom he cher
ished a hatred almost personal in its in
tensity. He loved Ireland passionately,
and whatever his minor faults of DISPOSE
tion all who knew him agree that he was
of heroic mould and, under more favor
able circumstances, might have become
a general of the first class. Want of re-
sources cramped his movements, and a
too deep confidence in his own Judgment
led him into acts Of imprudence which
somewhat marred his otherwise bright
career = a
The quotation is from the Citizen Of
Chicago, and was presumably written by
John E. Finerty, its editor and one Of
those who accompanied O'Neill in his raid
on Ridgeway.
