Ireland and Potheen.

1t is commonly supposed that drunk
enness is rife in Ireland and the people
consequently idle and unfit for work.
In this respect happily there has been a
great change. The illicit manufacture
of the poisonous 'potheen" is strictly
repressed by the police and the people
cannot afford TO buy whisky The drink
ing of tea which is much too strong-in
fact, boiled--is said to cause more de-
struction to health in Ireland than does
whisky. The increase of insanity has
even been attributed to this immoderate
tea drinking, and the price paid for tea
is much higher than its true value

Some Facts For Farmers.


In 1877 the average value Of the hay
crop in the United States was SIS. SO per
ton. The following year it dropped to-
81. 20, and in 1879, the year next ensu-
ing, it jumped up to 50. 80 per ton.
Again. In 1891, when this country
was firmly Oh gold basis, the average
value Of the hay crop was IS. 40 per ton.
In 1892 it fell to SO. 73 per ton, and in
1898 ii rose TO IS. 68 per ton. Last year
the average value was IS. Sc per ton
Assuming that the fall in prices is
due to the "crime Of 1873" how are
these fluctuations to be accounted for?
Will some Bryanite explain also why il
is that the average value of the hay crop
per ton was greater in 1895, when we
were on a gold basis, than it was In
1878. when gold was at premium?
Hay has undoubtedly declined IN price
since 1878, but why should it not have
doYe so? Apart from cheaper methods
of production and cheaper rates Of trans
porta 7ion the annual hay crop increased
from s5, 0S5, 100 tons in 1878 to 65,
766, 1853 tons in 1898. Last year ii
amounted to about AZ, 000, 900.

GENERAL ASSEMBLY.
A GRAND HOLD UP PROBABLE.


Delaying LegIslatisn-PolItics Being Play
ed bY Republicans aud Democrats.
The work of the Legislature to-day
consisted principally of delaying legisla-
ton, in order to accomplish political pur-
poses.
The Senate convened at noon, and inn
mediately after pray er by the Chaplain,
Herrings assessment bin was called up
and its reading continued. It was then
laid over for future consideration.
Several important bills passed their
second reading, when the Senate went
into executive session tn confirm APP
pointments and remained in executive
session for sometime.
HOUSE.
In the House the republicans took oe-
casion to show the democratic minority
their power.
Several important bills came up us
special order of the day. The first one
was the police reorganization bill for
Baltimore city. This WIS, on motion,
made the special order for Monday night
at $50 o'clock.
Then the Bruce civil service bill was
reported by the committee on its third
and final reading. Several members were
on their feet in All instant and motions
were fired at the Speaker from all sides
to postpone action on the bill.
The bill to extend the term of Judge
w. Sheppard Bryan was reported favor
ably. A motion came from the repub-
lican side of the House to make the bill
special order for Thursday next. This
move excited the ire of Delegate Lewis,
who declared it was republican trick,
and if they wished to kill the bill, TO do
so at present.
A motion was made to adjourn and
was lost After the lapse of a few min
utes, call of the House was called,
when a quorum WAS not present. The
doors were ordered closed and the SER
geant-at-arms sent out after the mem
bers. Business was entirely suspended,
when the Speaker adjourned the House
Legislative Notes.
The caucus called by the Republicans
tonight to select police commissioners
for Baltimore city Was recalled. 1T is
understood that Governor LOwndes de-
sires the appointments postponed.
Bankard's assessment bill comes mp
in the House OH Monday night.
A delegation headed by Jos. b. Seth
and Philip l.. Goldsborough were before
the committee on Chesapeake bay and
tributories, opposing the closing of the
Choptank river TO Oystermen.
1t is the general impression that the
civil service bill will have the referen-
DUN clause attached to it, providing
that the matter be submitted 10 a vote
of the people ut the election in Noyem-
Der next.
The Governor sent down the appoint
ments of supervisors of election for
Washington and Baltimore counties.
The Governor vetoed a bill today re-
lating to license for oyster houses in Al
legany county.

House Of Correction.

When the board of public works is
completed by the election of State
treasurer the republicans will have -four
members of the board Of managers OF
the House of Correction, namely, the
Governor, the comptroller, the treasur-
er and the Encouragement. The Gov.
ernor will then have the appointment OF
three managers, and, as he will select re-
publicans, the party will then have seven
members of the board to six democrats.
The control will therefore be republican
~ to 6. The Office of superintendent
of the House of Correction is one of the
plums toward which hungry oilice-seek-
ers are turning their eyes, and there is
considerable pressure on the Governor
to select managers who will give this
place to- republican. The present in
cumbent is Mr.. Jesse More, democrat.
