The Irish Literary Society of London
has begun an important work of COM
piIation. 1t will deal with the authori-
ties on Irish history, that history being
divided into eight sections, and each
section embracing "(a) the contempor-
airy sources; (b) the later writers who
had access to documents now lost, and
who may be assumed to have had 9TH
er trustworthy sources Of information;
(c) the chief modern writers. An ac-
count of each writer will be given, with
a clear and unbiased statement of the
point of view from which he consider
ed the events of which he wrote" The
projectors of this vast work of refer
ence will not stop short at any labor
involved in the prosecution of their
scheme. It is proposed to include all
the authorities on Irish history, from
the Pagan era to the rejection by the
House of Lords of the Home Rule bill
of 1892.

Ter and eleven of his associates, who

dress 10 the silver republicans of the
country, setting forth their views of the
situation. In addition to those signing
the address, Senator Pettigrew, Of
South Dakota, and Senator Cannon, of
Utah, are declared to be ia sympathy
with it. although Senator Cannon was
not present at the conference owing
to business engagements in Boston.
The address is very lengthy. 1t says
among other things:
To those VINO believe in bimetallism which
means the equal treatment Of both gold and
silver at the minis Of the nation. there is but
one course to pursue, and that is to unite all
the silver forces and to oppose with all our
might the candidate representing the policy
which We believe is frought with disaster to
the nation and ruin to the people,
Gold mOnometallism means the shifting TO
gold alone, as primary money, all the burdens
Of commerce ana credit formerly borne by gold
and silver, and as the worlds stock Of these
metals has always been about equal in amount,
it means the doubling Of the burden upon gold,
Doubling the burden upon gold means doubling
the demand for the same, and doubling the de-
mand, Of necessity, doubles the value thereof,

Those who profess 70 deplore the present

Of ths present condition, Some declare that it
Is because we have too much tariff; others that
We have not enough, While the fact exists that
every gold standard country in the world,
whether Il has high or low tariff, is now and
has been during recent years, in the thEoes Of

country compared With its former condition, Is
enjoying an industrial development aud degree
Of prosperity hitherto unknown IN its history.
While thus differing ia opinion, they unite in
asserting that the gold standard must be main
