II believe that Ireland should be abso-

is what / am advocating in all my ad-

land should have nothing to do with 1T
whatever."
Mr.. Finerty will speak on Robert
Emmet" in connection with giving his
views on the Irish question, to-day being
the anniversary of the birth of the patriot.
Mr.. Finerty says he will touch on the
general phases of the Irish question, the
condition of the country and the people as
existing to-day and their hopes for the
future. He says home rule does not meet
the Requirements of the case. England,
he claims, has not even the shadow of
claim to Ireland's allegiance.
He was here once before, in 1881, and re-
mained for a short time. His present

Harrison Says 1t Makes the Position
of President One of Many Trials.
At the beginning of every administra-

desire some office either in the States, III
the departments or in the foreign service,
writes ex-President Harrison IN March
Ladies' Home Journal, discussing 1.-THE
Presidential Office" Many OF these per-
sons have a limited purse, and as the days
pass on this is exhausted, ard impatience
and ill temper come in. Many of these
persons are deserving and well fitted to
fill the offices they desire. But it is impos-
sible tofind places for all the deserving, and
position of the President is full OF trial.
The suspense and uncertainty that the
office seeker suffers is illustrated by
the case of man from my own State who
thought he had good reason to expect an
appointment from President Garfield.

OAKLAND, CAL, March 3.-Lyons Post,
G. A. r., held it's regular semi-monthly
meeting tonight, and took important
action regarding the charges made by the
post against the directors of the Yount-
vile Home two weeks ago. 1t was under
stood that one of the members, Comrade
Shepard, would attempt to have the post
reconsider the resolutions containing the
charges of censure. In view of this fact
there was large attendance. The post,

tions, and committee of nine was ap-
pointed to prepare proof and prosecute
the charges before the investigation Or

and already affidavits have been prepared
in regard 20 the action and statements of

He Has Come to Speak Under

WANTS IRELAND TO BE FREE
Mr.. Finerty's Career as Editor, Con.
gresham and War Correspondent.
Will Talk but Once.

John F. Finerty of Chicago, ex.Con.
gresham and editor of the Chicago Citi-
zen, who is to lecture tonight at Metro
politan Temple on Irish nationalism,
arrived here yesterday and is at the
Occidental.
Mr.. Finerty is lecturing under the aus.
pices of the Irish National Alliance OF
America. He will speak here but once; at
least he so anticipates. On the 10Th he
will speak in Butte and on the 17th in
Anaconda.
He has the reputation OF being fluent
and able orator. He has been war cor
respondent during Indian troubles in the
Northwest, and altogether has had an all
round experience calculated to fit him for
almost any work.

and had brought to bear all the influence
he could ommand, | met him one day on
the street and asked him how he was get
ting along. His answer was, VERY well,
very we'll, but there is nothing focal yet.
1t was wonderfully expressive, and has re-
manned in my memory as a type of the
state of uncertainty. which accompanies
ofice-seeking. Nothing focal yet" but
hope that is hard to kill.
There are few offices at Washington the
salaries of which enable the incum bent to
save any money, and the average ex-
perience OF those holding places in the
departments, ] am sure, is, if they would
express it, that private business offers
better returns and gives better chance
for advancement.
