MILES SUCCESS.

Lieutenant General Schof1eld retired
from command of the army of the United
States at noon last Sunday and is Sue
ceeded by Major General Nelson A. Miles.
For some time past it was thought that
the president would have appointed Gen
eral Kruger to the position on account of
some personal feeling which was said to
exist between the president and the In
dian fighter-Miles-bu all those suppo-
sitions have been dispelled.
While the appointment is one which
every officer would most gladly obtain
yet it happens that the rank of the officer
is not increased as the title of lieutenant
general became extinct upon the retire
ment of General Schofield, just as the
title of general died with General Grant
General Miles is not a graduate of West
Point, but that did not preclude him from
being a splendid fighter. All the best
fighting of the rebellion, for instance, was
not done by West Pointers.

IRELAND'S TAXES.

A correspondent desires to know if 1t is
not a fact that the province Of Ulster pays
more in taxes than the other three prov
inces combined.
The question is somewhat difficult to
answer, because the returns from Ireland
as to it's wealth are so unsatisfactory.
The wealth of the whole country might
be approximated but accessible data do
not give the wealth by provinces. How
ever, as Ireland is an agricultural country
principally and as its chief source of
wealth is it's lands, it would be thought
that Ulster did not pay as much in taxes
as the other three provinces combined.
The latest available returns of the worth
of the land in each province is as follows:
Leinster, $4,560,342; Munster, s3,311, 0S5;
ConDaught, 81 $50; Ulster, $4,125,945.
According to this showing the land valu-
alton of the three provinces combined is
$0,294,097, which, substracting listers
s5,16S, 1872 in favor of the other provinces.
OF course, Belfast in Ulster is very ex-
tensive manufacturing city, but 1t would
hardly be thought that even with the
manufacturing of the North it's tax valu-
alton would be equal to the combined
valuation of the East, South and West,
nor in fact anywhere near it. However,
this is reasoning largely upon probabili-
ties and upon the figures at hand.

CUBAN AFFAIRS.

Meetings are being held in different
portions of the United States for the
purpose of inducing the administration
to recognize the belligerency Of Cuba,
but it is not thought that anything will
be done in that direction until after
congress meets. Should both houses Of
that body pass resolutions favorable to
recognition, the president would act i'll
accordance, but not otherwise. The ad-
ministration, it is said, is keeping clear
" in view the Alabama claims, whereby
England was compelled to pay this
country $15,0oo,ooo for her precipitancy
in acknowledging the belligency of the
Southern states during the rebellion.
Should this country recognize the bel
lfserency of Cuba and afterwards Spain
should conquer the insurgents, the
spaniards would then be in a position
to present claims Of greater or less mag
nitude against this government, and
we might rest assured that the claims
would be as great as t would be possible
To make them.

fion, Cuba would slook us for mater

1t has been stated with the greatest as
surance that Spain will, demand from the
United States $5O0,0O0,0O0 indemnity for
interference with Cuba and to make Ger
tain that she will get the money she will
ask England, Italy and Mexico to stand
at her back when she is asking for it,
Should the United States refuse, then
these nations-at Spain's dictat.on Of
course-will sail up New York bay and
begin throwing shot and shell into that
town.It hasn't been stated how willingly
those three countries would jump into the
deadly breach just because Spain wished
it, but as they are all supposed to be spoil
ing for fight with somebody perhaps
they wouldn't mind commencing on Uncle
Sam. Wow, WOW, but wouldn't the IRISH
men in America have the opportunity Of
their lives in scrimmage like that with
England. They would forget that there
was any other foe in the field. The uni
forms of the soldiers and sailors of Italy
and Mexico would be lost sight of in the
wild scramble to have a tussle with the
red-coats. But the worst of it is the shin
dy is not likely to come of.

Some time ago William Everett Hicks
questioned the earnestness of Lady Henry
Somerset and insisted that great deal Of:
her property in England was used for inl-
moral purposes and challenged her to dis
prove it. She explained that a great deal
Of her property was held on long leases
before it came into her possession and
therefore she was powerless to apply a
remedy but that in all cases where she
could do so she did not permit her prop
erty to be thus used. Mr.. Hicks now says
that Lady Henry Somerset and Mrs. Will
lard are not as disinterested in their war
upon liquor as their friends think they are
and when the latter arrived In this coun-
try the other day challenge was handed
to her from Mr.. Hicks asking for dis
cussion OF the question. To this Miss
Willard answered that she gave Mr.. Hicks
credit for believing he was correctly in
formed on the subject and that she con-
sidered him to be a man of education but
that the time she might otherwise devote
to such a discussion had been already en-
gagged and Of course the debate would
have to be Indefinitely postponed. Miss
Willard may have felt the accusation Of
Mr.. Hicks to be beneath her contempt
but she did not disprove the charge nor
make any attempt to deny it,

FAvORlNG THE MOVEMENT.

The Milwaukee Catholic Citizen says
that "Col. Finerty, of The Chicago Cit
izen, admits that the entire Catholic
press of the United States excepting two
patent inside sheets away down south)
have given the "new movement no en-
couragement, and that the best known
Irish American papers, The Pilot, The
Irish World, and The Irish American,
have not been with it..
The Milwaukee paper is either very
careless in it's quotations or misquotes
the Chicago paper for purpose. The
Chicago Citizen complains that the move
ment had not received from the Catholic
press the support it deserved. 1t said:
"The 1rish-American press, with the
exception of the fossilized 1rish-Amer-
lean, of New York, has done we'll The
Irish World published the call for the
convention in full, while the Irish Repub-
lie. of New York, the Hibernian, of Phi
ladelphia, the Irish Standard, of Mime
apolis and the Nation of San Francisco,
acted splendidly throughout. On the
other hand, the Catholic" press, except
ing the Catholic Journal Of the New
South, published at Memphis, Tenn, and
a few other papers edited by men of in
dependent mind, has been either sheer
ing, openly hostile, or entirely silent. AS
the Irish-American people of this coun-
try are the main supporters of the Cath
Ollie newspapers, we consider it rather
odd that the great Irish question, which
appeals to all humanity, should be either
carped at or sighted by those papers"
The Chicago Citizen continued to show
the apathy of the American Catholic
press and questioned very pointedly the
justice of their course. The Milwaukee
paper not being supporter of the new
movement, must have felt the shoe
pinching in the most disagreeable man
ner because of the remarks of it's Chicago
contemporary, and hence could not in its
pain see the lines clearly to make the
proper quotation.

League funds" are certainly terrible
enough in their significance to call for
more than passing notice. The man
against whom those awful epithets are
hurled is not named, but he must be
known to members Of the A. O. H. It
is difficult to read this document and be-
lieve it has emanated from officers of an
association which is at least deemed re-
spectacle.
But can any one part Of this circular
be even remotely true? Is it possible
that men of acknowledged decency, in
telligence and standing continue to fol-
low the leadership of a man or men
against whose characters the most in
fnitesimal part of such charges will
stick? We confess we hardly believe it.
There is something rotten somewhere,
or else this latest disgrace ON the Irish
name would never have been penned. 1t
is beyond peradventure or chance the
vilest, most atrocious villainous docu-
ment which has been circulated in Irish
American organizations within our mem

Miss Frances E. Willard, who has just
returned to this country from England,
says the Englishmen in India are corrupt
ing the natives there. What ideas those
natives must have Of Christianity when
such examples are set before them? Has
it not often been argued that England
could find profitable field at home for
the use Of the money raised for foreign
missionaries? And those good souls in
America, too, who are driving themselves
into early graves because the native wo-
men of Africa will not take to wearing
balloon sleeves and the thick-lipped and
long heeled gentlemen there to wearing
plug hats, might with better judgment
and greater effect direct their energies to-
wards the quarter where they would do
the most good-at home.

No sane person is talking Of the
Irish raisig an army in America for the
purpose of crossing the ocean and wrest-
ing Ireland from British rule. It was not
talked of, nor perhaps even thought Of by.
the most rabid Irishman in Chicago at
the convention. Then why so much blus-
ter on the part of some Irish papers that
to attempt such thing would be I'M
heard of-outrage These editors are
wasting great deal of what should be-
considered gray matter when they are at
tempting to discuss international law up
on this aspect Of the question. Let them
stick to facts-hard facts-and not go
outside Of the record that was made at
Chicago. The armament that was spoken
of at the convention was not an invading
one-at least not now.

The vital statistical reports from Ire
land are far from being cheerful. The an
nual report of marriages for the last year
is but little above that for the last ten
years, while the number of births is small
er than usual. The death rate shows a
small increase. The population in the
middle Of the year was 4,600,599. At this
rate England may yet succeed in turning
the country into grazing fields by driving
the Inhabitants elsewhere That is the
hopeful dream of the boasted humanity
and civilization of the average Britisher.
It Is possible, however, that the results Of
the recent Irish convention in Chicago
will produce different results.

OPPOSING THE CONVENTION.

Some time before the Irish convention
was held in Chicago a paper was issued
by number of Irishmen opposing the
convention. It was styled manifesto,
but Father Malone, editor of the Colorado
Catholic, called it "a vile document" and
although the convention is over, and
there are still people opposing the ideas,
principles and intentions there promul
gated, 1T may be as well to reproduce his
editorial utterances. He says:
The lesson of federation of each others
opinion is one that Irishmen Of today
need to learn. 1t is, perhaps, safe to
say that there is no nationality which is
SO absolutely intolerant of differences of
view of it's own members as the Irish.
Why this is so is very difficult to di-
vine. The hot. impetuous nature of the
Celt may have something to do with it.
The peculiar conditions under which
Irishmen have been raised in Ireland
may have more. Whatever the cause, it
is the bare naked truth that Irishmen
do not even try to be decently tolerant
of their fellows; in many instances, indi-
vidually, but lamentably conspicuous, in
Irish American organizations
A circular which has been issued, sign
ed by the national delegate. secretary
and treasurer of the Ancient Order of Hi
bernians, Board of Erin, is a notorious
case in point. The subject of the circu-
lar deals, with the proposed Irish conven-
ton In Chicago, and it is addressed to
the members of the A. o. H., American
Board. We do not pause to measure the
merits of the dispute which has caused
such glazing anomaly as a Board Of
Erin and an American Board" In an
organization devoted to fraternity, be-
neyolence and charity. That is outside
our province and might perhaps be re-
senned as an impertinence. Our imme-
date concern is with a number Of
charges. insinuations and inuendoes,

Perhaps one of the reasons why It
takes SO long to compile the state census
after all the information has been gath
cred is that the assistant superintendent
receives $3.50 a month in addition to his
regular salary Of $4,000 a year as assist
ant secretary of state, and that the CHIEF
clerk of the census bureau is In receipt
of $1s7 month. The compiling is still
going on, and of course great zeal OF
admirable statistical arrangement may
be expected to continue until the very
moment that the report must be turned
over to the state.

On last Monday the streets Of Con-
stantinople were red with the blood Of
Armenlans and Turks alike. The for
mer went with petition for the redress
Of their wrongs and a horrible butchery
followed. If the civilized nations Of the
world ever intend taking any part for
the relief of Armenian Christians as
against Turkish atrocities 1t would seem
there could be no more fitting time than
the present. The Turk should go.

It is claimed that the missing link
which Darwin could not find in tracing
the origin of the human race has been
discovered by Prof. Wartman, Of Column
bia College, and that 1t is nothing more
than the skeleton Of a pet balloon. The
Chicago Tribune rises to remark that
this merely alters the matter little, 50
that now, instead of proving that mon
keys become men, 1t proves that mau
can make monkey OF himself.

Did it ever strike people generally how
many things are declared unconstitution-
al these days? Even the act passed BY
the Texas legislature for the suppression
of prize fighting is liable to be declared
unconstitutional because two separate
subjects are joined in the same act-buA-
fighting being included in the act with
prize fighting And Ignatius Donnelly's
paper can't understand why it never oc-

nature that could possibly be used for
the benefit Of the land their editors pro-
fess to love.
The officers of that convention and the
committees appointed by it should be
given time to formulate their plans and
when these are known criticism will be
in order, but in the meantime every en-
enlargement should be given in the
hope that their plans may be equal to

THE MODERN NEWSPAPER.

tries in that respect by the aid and al
most entire use of electricity. All the
large cities of the world are left behind
| by this interior European town which
| has given pointers to the most wide
awake Yankee idea. Hearken to this:
| The telephone newspaper organized
at Pesth, Hungary, has now been work
ing successfully for two years. 1t is
called the Telephone Hirnondo, or Her.
aid, costs two cents, like a printed pa
per, and is valuable to persons who are
unable or too lazy to use their eyes, or
who cannot read. It has 5000 subscrib-
ers, who receive the news as they would
ordinary telephone messages. A special
wire 168 miles long runs along the win
dows of the houses of subscribers.
which are connected with the main line
by separate wires and special appara-
tus which prevents the blocking of the
system by an accident at any one of
the stations Within the houses long,
flexible wires make it possible to carry
the receiver to the bed or elsewhere in
the room.
The news is not delivered as it hap
pens to come in, but IS carefully edited
and arranged according to a printed
schedule, so that subscriber at any
time knows what part of the paper he
is going to hear. It begins with the
night kilograms from all parts of
Europe. Then comes the calendar Of
events of the day, with the city news
and the lists of strangers at the hotels.
After that follow articles on music,
art, and literature. The staff is Or
ganized like that of any other news
paper, and is on duty from 1870 in the
morning till $50 at night. After the
copy has passed through the editor
hands, for the paper is subject to the
same restrictions as ordinary news
papers and is liable for it's communica-
lions, it is given to the speakers y
These are ten men with strong voices
and clear enunciation, who work In
shifts of two at a time and talk the
news through the telephone. There
are twenty EIGHT editions uttered a
day. Additions to the first edition are
announced as news items.
To fill up the time when no news Is
coming in the subscribers are enter
tanned with vocal and instrumental
concerts. These were at first given for
them especially in the Office of the Hir-
monde, but now the wire is in communi-
cation with the opera house and the
music halls, and on Sundays and saints
days with the churches. The music
is transmitted at times to other places
in Austro-Hungary, and recently the
Hirnondo microphone was connected
with the circuit going from Trieste,
through Vienna, Bremen and Pesth, to
Berlin, the music being heard in all
these places with equal clearness and
force. The happy Hungarian can lie
abed all day and hear everything that
is going on In his town.
Such a newspaper as the one de-
scribed was foreshadowed by writer in
the British and Colonial Printer and
stationer in December, 1898. In the
article, which was entitled "a Fairy
Tale for Printers" an attempt was
made to forecast the future Of the daily
newspaper; and the Telephone Hir-
monde closely resembles the writer's
ideal.
