To those interested in the National
list movement in Ireland the name of
James Stephens. who died in Dublin
a few days ago, is little more than a
memory. They have heard of him as a
great Fenian leader of other days, but
he is not remembered as. for instance.
they remember O'Connell and Parnell.
Nearly half a century ago, however,
James Stephens was the most promin-
ent Irishman in or out of Ireland. He
believed in liberating his country by
physical force, and at one time he was
all but successful in launching a we'll
developed revolution.
stephens as an Organizer.
Stephens was born not far from Dub
lin and was educated at Dublin Uni
versity. He was a great linguist, a
fluent speaker, and is said to have been
the greatest organizer which the Irish
Nationalist ever had. He had a pc
culiar faculty of convincing the masses
that what he said was right IND that
what he promised would be fulfilled.
He was in the Young Ireland rebellion
of 1S4S, which began with a spiurge
and ended so ingloriously. Fired by
his association with Irish patriots at
that time. Stephens began almost as
soon as the rebellion of AS collapsed,
to plan for another. In 10 years his
plans had so far matured that drill
classes were meeting nightly in Dub
lin and vicinity, and young Irishmen
INDUCED high hopes of freeing their
native land.
What the Irish patriots needed,
though, was skilled military leaders.
These they had not, but the civil war
in the United States furnished a school
for Irishmen on this side of the At
lantic in which to learn the art of
war and the skill to command, which
they hoped to be able to practice in Ire
land when the civil war was over.
Under Stephens direction active en-
listment in the various Fenian soci.
cites was undertaken in 1864, and Sc
cret Grillings were carried on all over
the island.
This activity had been preceded the
year before by a convention in the
United States, at which Stephens was
proclaimed the practical head of the
Irish nation, or, as he was called by
the Fenians, the central organizer ofthe
Irish republic. John O'Mahoney was

FREE TRADE IS DEATH TO TRUSTS.
The Protective Tariff League has
taken q great deal Of pleasure In try
ing to magnify the number and i'm
portance of trade combinations In free
trade England, thus trying to show
that 1t is not the protection given the
trusts in the United States that Is one
of the main causes OF their monopoly,
as in free trade England trusts are
likewise numerous. Even this prop OF
the League has now tumbled down, for
the few combines that have been
formed in England have with one ex-
ception all failed or are practically
bankrupt.
Commenting on this state of affairs
the Boston Transcript says: 1.-THE
cause Of this decline is not far to seek.
In the first place the free-trade policy
of the United Kingdom subjects these
combines to the competition OF the
whole world, and now that over-pro-
duction in the textile industries Is Sc
riously threatened, even If 1t has not
actually arrived, they can no longer
maintain monopoly prices. When many
Of the younger men associated with
the private firms as junior partners or
simply as salaried managers and SER
wants, have been cast adrift In the ef-
forts of the combines to secure economy
and have started business on their
p1y q
crate way. but with the most modern
machinery and careful attention to
every detail, which more than coun-
terbalances any supposed cheapening
of production on an immense scale,
and their competition is already being
keenly felt"
This shows that II our trusts here
are shorn of the protection they en-
joy under the present tariff, many OF
them would find 1t impossible to main
tain the enormous profits they are now
making, for competition would COM
pei them to sell as cheaply as the for
eign product could be sold here. 1t is
also possible that in some lines OF
production similar competition will
start up, as in England, from those
who have been let out OF business
when the trusts were organized and
again give them a chance to earn a
living at work they have been used to.
AS the tariff is so high on most OF
these trusts productions that 1t has
been prohibitive in nearly every case'
there will be no loss Of revenue to
the government as there is none now
paid, as the trusts is protected from
competition by the SO or 60 per cent
or even higher duty that the custom
house would demand.

ANARCHIST AND ARCHIsTs.

There are some newspapers In the
United States that would be greatly
offended II they were styled anarchists
and yet they are attempting to destroy
all that they do not believe in and that
Is as much the teachings Of anarchy
as the miserable Nominations Of Herr
Most. The Inter Ocean and the Brook
lyn Eagle are examples of this, one
styling itself Republican and the latter
calling itself Democratic-God save the
mark.
The Eagle says: 1--WE are glad we
never wrote a yellow editorial to the
effect that law is bloody shame, that
a man who works with his hands
should rightly be killed by man who
works with his mouth, that sweat OF
jaw is better than sweat of brow"
Commenting on this the Nebraska
Independent says it is glad that 1t
never had any sympathy with man
like the one who under the present
circumstances would write like that.
He is one of those who never did
days work causing the sweat of the
brow" in all his life, and he never saw
an editorial of the kind that he de-
precates. What is more probable he
is a patronizer Of such papers as Herr
Most publishes. 1t was there, and there
only, that such writings have appeared,
that this journalistic skunk would have
his readers believe that such doctrines
have been taught by all those who
have not believed in the gold standard
banks running this government, and
hides his venom behind such state
ments as the above. He rightfully be-
longs to the same class Of degenerates
as the one who assassinated the presi-
dent.

OUR ROASTED PROSPERITY.

That vast wealth is being accumu
lated by banks, trusts and individuals
is apparent to every one, that the rail-
roads and corporations are paying
large dividends and laying up reserves
is evident from the statements they
issue and the great advance in the
price of their stocks. The newspapers
and public men are loud in their boasts
of this class prosperity, and those of
the Republican persuasion are trying
to make us all believe we are equally
prosperous.
2 An article in the Pilgrim Magazine,
after noting this, says: In the face of
such a clamorous celebration Of the
national wealth 1t has been difficult for
individuals to secure a hearing long

The Republican party has SO many

as It is constantly with pharisaical

So,
Through the protective tariff 1t has
given the trusts monopoly thus al
lowing wealth to accumulate in the
hands of the few until the power that
accompanies money is greater than
the power of the people.
BY the lack of enforcement of laws,
both federal and state, those vast mo-
nQpolies called trusts and corporations
generally refuse and do not pay their
share of the taxes, either state or fed

NO RULER IN THIS COUNTRY.

In speaking of the President Of the
United States many newspapers and
nearly all the preachers call him the
ruler OF the country. This Is great
mistake. Under our Democratic Re-
publican form of government there
can be no rulers, the officers elected
are the servants of the people and not
their ruler or are we advanced so far
towards Imperialism that our officials
have in measure usurped power that.
the constitution does not give and as
sumo to rule? Under our new colonial
government in the Philippines the
army Is the ruler, though the farce Is
being enacted of civil government.
and the governor-general is ruler
with despotic power, which the mill
tary execute, the power being derived
from the President. That Is imperial
ism. Ruling other people in that way
may accustom the people Of the United
States to a despotic form Of govern
ment that in the end they may sub
NIT themselves to be ruled, but as long
as grass grows and water runs there
will be a Democracy to resist such
usurpation. We want no ruler in this
country, we must have honest. SER
wants of the people to carry out the
work, for the time, for which they
have been elected.
