NEWS FROM IRELAND

"Chickens Come Home To Roost."
You may take the world as it comes
and goes,
And you will be sure to find
That Fate will square the account she
owes,
Whoever comes out behind;
And all things bad that man has done,
By whatsoever induced,
Return at last to him, one by one,
AS the chickens come home to roost
You may scrape and toll and pinch and
While your boarded wealth expands,
Till the bold, dark shadow of the grave
Is nearing your life's last sands;
You will have your balance struck some
night,
And you will find your hoard reduced;
You'll view your life in another light
When the chickens come home to
roost.
Sow as you will, there's time to reap
For the good and the bad as we'll;
And conscience, whether we wake or
sleep,
Is either heaven or hell,
And every wrong will find its place,
And every passion loosed
Drifts back and meets you face to face
When the chickens come home to
roost.
Whether you're over or under the sod,
The result will be the same;
You cannot escape the hand OF God,
You must bear your sin and shame.
No matter what's carved on marble or
stone,
When the items are all produced,
You'll find the record emitting none,
And that chickens come home to
rOost.

Lament of Kerry.


Oh, it is not here, but in Kerry, the
roots of my heart are set,
And it is not here, but in Kerry, the
dreams of my life are yet;
Kerry left behind me in narrowing
CLEAN Of light,
When I said goodbye to the dear old
land and passed out into the night
The SIN had gone from the heavens, the
birds flown home to their nest,
A wind walled out Of the darkness, a
rain cloud hung in the west;
There was no glimmer of brightness, no
shining on earth or sky,
When | sailed away from you, Kerry,
with the best of my years gone BY
Oh, there is no place like Kerry in all
the world I've seen,
Nowhere has fairer valleys, nowhere has
hills so green;
Nowhere the word Of friendship is given
with franker grace
Than there, in the core OF Munster, with
the true hearts blood of our race.
Ochone! ochone! for thee, Kerry! II
Ia y, wishes were sails and ships,
IT'S I would be sailing toward you with
cries OF Joy. on my lips;
Racing the white waves by me, and
watching by night and morn
For first glad sight OF the kindly land
where l and my race were born.
My hands are SO tired Of toiling always
on the strangers floor,
There are no smiles on the faces that
look from the strangers door;
The poor Of the earth's not wanted, ex-
cept by the poor I know,
And my loves are buried i'll Kerry with
the joys of the long ago.
And for these do love thee, Kerry, OF
kindred and home bereit,
Old memories dear as my life to me,
and the scenes Of the past are left;
Where the winds are ireighted with sea
songs and misty with drifted
spray,
And the strangers met with friendly
word in Kerry, so far away
Oh, there are the wee white daisies half
hidden in waving grass,
And the saucy cowslips dancing in all
the airs that pass;
Red peoples faunt their banners in the
golden depths of the wheat,
And oh, but the cool green earth were
good under my weary feet.
Sure, l am haunted forever with dreams
of my native land,
Ny soul is sick for loving word and
the grasp Of loving hand;
Oh, Kerry, of silver waters, Kerry OF
mountains tall,
In all the world I've journeyed round
there is nowhere like you at all.

KILDARE.

Mr. Ronaldson, the Protestant Ma
tionalist who was defeated by Lord
Frederick Fitzgerald for the Kildare
county council, but was subsequently
elected to represent the Celbridge dis
trict council by the Nationalist majority
of that body, has taken the first oppor-
h1nity to repudiate one of the grossest
libels of the Unionist Alliance. He re-
called how, in opposing home rule, its
opponents entered even the domain of
religion and engaged and paid a number
OF Protestant clergy" how they were
sent over to England to proclaim from
platform to platform that the people OF
Ireland were unfit to be trusted with
self-government, that they were intol-
Grant, and that home rule would mean
home rule" Gas Protestant" declares
Mr. Ronaldson, II am proud to use this,
the first occasion upon which l have
ever been privileged to speak as a pub
lie representative, to cast back that libel
on those who uttered it."

THE Silver City Normal school

THE Solomonyille Bulletin Is cross
examinging the board Of supervisors
OF Graham county. Last week II had
a column OF questions directed to the
chairman OF the board. The LIBERAL
happens TO be 10 position to answer
one OF these questions, and for fear
the chairman may be unable TO give
the proper Information the Liberal
will furnish the information. The
question was: "Why $500 was paid
for a lawyer to assist the district at
torney 10 the tax law suit with the
Detroit copper company" ltinvolyes
telling a little history 10 answer this
question. At the last election the
present district attorney was elected
TO the Office be o holds, but at that
time he was in the army. The law
prohibits an army officer from holding
a territorial Office, aud his right TO
hold the Office was contested 10 the
court. His case was argued by a Tue
son attorney. Before the court de-
cided who was district attorney the
various contestants compromised the
case, regardless OF the law, and the
office was given 10 the present incum-
bent. or course the Tucson lawyer
did not charge his brother attorney
for arguing the case as 10 the profess
sion such charges are not made, but
the district attorney, as Is expected In
the profession, took the first oppor-
tunlty TO throw something good In the
way OF his Tucson friend. and this
happened TO be the tax suit against
the Detroit copper comDauy. Itmade
no difference 10 the district attorney,
nor TO the Tucson lawyer, whether
there was any show Of winning the
case or not. The county would pay
the bill aud the district attorney
would discharge his debt OF gratitude
70 the Tucson attorney.

Last Saturday evening there was a
large ''stag soeialp at the Library
rooms IN Clifton. Tie main cause for
the meeting was to present to Mr.. j..
G.. Hopkins a watch. MS a mark OF the
good feeling that the people Of Clifton
bad for him. For many years Mr..
Hopkins has bcen secretary OF the
Arizona copper company, and some
time ago resigned the position, Mr.. A.
II. Thompson being Appointed to take
his place. Mr.. Hopkins intends to
live in Virginia In the future, and was
back to Clifton to spend Christmas.
Some time ago it was suggested that
{ would be appropriate TO make him a
present to show the appreciation the
employees OF the company and his
many other friends ia Clifton had Of
him. A subscription was taken up
and a magnificent gold watch was
purchased from TIFFANY, it being one
OF Tiffany lest, and that means one
Of the best ir the world. The watch
was presented with a graceful speech
by Judge Egan. This was followed by
other -peeches, and a general good
time was had. The employees Of the
company aud the citizens OF Clifton
are very sorry 60 have NJ. Hopkins
leave the town, but rejoice 10 his good
fortune.

IT would be advisable to admit them
as states. Governor Otero OF New
Mexico and Governor Murphey Of

their wise guidance the members Of
congress will see everything that will
favorably impress them. In all prob

admission Of the territories they will
become states.
