Kentucky Irish American. (Louisville, Ky.) 1898-1968, 1899-09-30

England is unmasked at last in
the Transvaal controversy by the
courteous yet plain reply of the Boer
Government to her last note, and
her Ministry, instead of formulating
an ultimatum, really sent mean
ingless message to the Beers, with
the evident purpose of delay. The
Beers in all their replies insist on
independence in their internal af-
fairs as recognized by England in
the treaty of 1884, and offered 10
arbitrate any grievance alleged re-
lating to any violation of that
treaty.
England now intimates that her
definition of suzerainty does not
recognize the Transvaal as an in
dependent State, which brings her
face to face with the question: If
the Transvaal is not sovereign
power, how could it enter into a
treaty? England stands convicted
of disregarding the treaty provisions
in seeking to coerce the Beers into
surrendering rights conceded by
her in 1884. Or, if her present
claim that she did not recognize the
Transvaal as an independent State,
then she was guilty of deception in
entering into a treaty with Gov
eminent she did not admit had the
power to n axe treaty. In either
view her per6dy and real purpose is
exposed, with the result that the
Orange Free State has declared its
purpose to aid the Transvaal in re-
sisting England, with prospects of a
revolt in neutral or nominally Eng
lish sections of South Africa. Add
to this manifestations of disapproval
in England, right in London, of the
policy of the Government, and the
outspoken disapproval of the press
of other countries, coupled with an
ominous silence on the part of those
whose word is authority
England really seems now anx-
ious to find loophole to back out
rather than go to war on the Boer
question. 1t is clear the most she
can hope for is neutrality of other
powers, and certain she will have a
united South Africa to fight, sub
jecting all she has there to possible
destruction during the struggle,
even should she be victorious in the
end.

OUereu TOT fdrK commissioners, ana
after a canvass of the city, Messrs.
M. Muldoon, w. o. Head and John
Doerhoefer were induced to present
their names. Three good men, said
all, and no one else offered for the
place. Under the rules of the party
they, having no opposition, were not
voted for in the primary, but de-
clared the nominees by the commit
tee.
Owing to the wrangle and disor-
der of the primary, resulting in two
sets of candidates claiming nomina-
tons voted for in the primary, the
new Democratic committee decided
to call mass meetings to select dele
gates to a convention to nominate
candidates for the offices voted for
in the primary, distinctly specify
ing in the call that nominees who
had had no opposition and were de-
clared nominees by the committee
should stand. III accordance with
this rule Hon. John M. Letterle for
Representative in the Forty fifth
district, DR.. R. L. Calvin for School
Trustee in the Fiftieth district, and
]. B. Atkinson for School Trus
tee in Fifty-frst district, were
declared the nominees because
they had no opposition in the June
primary, and no action was taken
by the convention in those cases.
For Park Commissioner, however,
the committee seems to have for
gotten the rule, for Messrs. Null
doom, Head and Doerhoefer-who,
like Letterle, Calvin and Atkinson,
had no opposition in the June pri-
not declared the nomi-
nees and the nomination for Park
Commissioners passed, but the con-
proceeded to make nomina-
tons. Indeed, so forgetful were
the committee and the managers of
the convention that the names of
Muldoon and Head were not men,
toned as candidates until delegate
reminded the Chair that Muldoon
was candidate, and he did receive
a few votes. Why was the rule en-
forced to declare Letterle, Calvin
aud Atkinson nominees without be-
ng voted on by the convention, and |
Why was it not enforced, Muldoon,
Head and Doerhoefer not declared |
but the convention, in
lefance and violation of the rule,
permitted to ignore those candidates
ind nominate others for Park Com
That the question that
demands an answer and an explana-
ion. Their title for the nomination
vas the same as that of Letterle,
Calvin and Atkinson. Why was
he rule enforced as to the latter
md violated as to the former?
Judging from the results-only
i've Irish-Americans named in
otal of ffty-six nominations, all
'thers, including Muldoon, defeated
lit looks rather anti-Irish, if you
'lease. There can be no good rea-
on for treating Mr.. Muldoon in
UGH manner. He is gentleman
expected by the people generally
or his integrity and business quail
les; did not seek the nomination,
nut it was offered and urged upon
lin; after accepting and it was
warded him, he is sought to be de-
rived of it, even in violation of the
arty rule and law.
There was something rotten in
hat convention, gentlemen. Mr..
fuldoon is not a politician. For
hat reason he may not suit the
arty managers, but for that very
eason he was urged to become a
andidate for a non-political Office
nd given the nomination without
pposition. Now he is repudiated,
ven in violation of party rules.
Such partisan intolerance is de-

AS land becomes more valuable our
farmers should see and feel the great
necessity Of keeping the soil up to its
best, which can only be done by free
use OF fertilizers or rotation OF crops
The latter can be easily accomplished
by keeping portion OF the farm in
alfalfa, plowing under some each year
and sowing a new patch. Alfalfa sod
will produce double the yield Of grain,
root or vine crops which can be secur-
ed on old ground with no more ex-
pense Of cultivation. The eighty-acre
farmer can raise more grain on forty
acres Of rich alfalfa sod than on his
full number Of acres OF worn out
ground. The quick, rich soil Of this
valley producing the immense crops
which it is capable Of must be re-
newed. Fowler Tribune.
