Young Plants

Every farmer knows that
some plants grow better than
Others. Soil may be the same
and seed may seem the same
but some plants are weak and
Others strong.
And that's the way with
children. They are like young
plants. Same food, same home,
same care but some grow big
and strong while others stay
small and weak.
SCOTS Emulsion offers an
easy way out Of the difficulty.
Child weakness often means
starvation, not because of lack
OF food, but because the food
does not feed.
SCOTS Emulsion reallyfeeds
and gives the child growing
strength.
Whatever the cause of weak
ness and failure to grow
SCOTS Emulsion seems 10 find

CAMPAIGN IN NEW YORK.

The insincerity of the republican Op-
pouentS of Tammany in New York is
we'll illustrated by events which have
taken place in the last few weeks.
AS is well known, New York City is
overwhelmingly democratic. Mr..
Coles, the democratic candidate for
governor of New York, carried the
city by over 100000 majority last fall
Mayor Low. II republican,. was elected
mayor two years ago by Il coalition of
republicans and democrats. All the
democratic organizations opposed to
Tammany supported Low and he was
elected by something over 10000 ma
jority. Democrats opposed to Tam
many made an honest effort to adj
minister Il rebukc to the strong Or
galliZatiom into which abuses had
crept. The nominee Of Tammany two
years ago is personally one Of the
ablest and purest men in American
politics. Edwin NJ. Shepard. vet demo-
Gratis. in order to purify their own
party and to promote good govern
ment. elected Il republican as mayor
of the great democratic city of New
York. Now the time for another cleo
ton in New York has come around
The independent democrats who elect
ed Mr. Low mayor ask that an indie
pendent democrat he nominated by
the fusion forces to oppose Tammany.
They say New York is a democratic
city. that next year is presidential year
and as democrats they do not care to
give the republicans the advantage
of having possession of the govern
ment of the great city whose vote
will determine the politics of the
pivotal state of New York next year.
But what is the attitude of the re-
puhicans who have been shouting
non-partisanship in the municipal af-
fairs of New York? At the recent
conference of the fusion leaders the
republicans insisted that the nominee
must be Low. Not on the ground

EuGl1lyEs FROM JUSTICE.

Last week Governor Durbin of III
diana made reuuistion upon Governor
Davis of Arkansas for the return to
Indiana of an alleged fugitive from
justice. After hearing the case, Gov
ernor Davis notified Governor Durbin
that he would honor the requisition up
on the condition that the Indiana gov
ernor returned to Kentucky eX-Gover-
nor Taylor and other fugitives desired
by that state for the murder of Gov
ernor Goebel. Otherwise, he would
not honor the requisition. 1t is we'll
known that Governor Durbin has on
several occasions refused to honor the
demand of the Governor of Kentucky
for the return Of Taylor, giving as IL
reason that the prosecution of Taylor
proceeded from political motives and
that Taylor could not secure Il fair
trial in Kentucky. The reason for at
taching Il condition to the return of
the fugitive from Indiana cannot he
more grOundless than the one assigned
by 1ndiana's governor. Every state
in the union has Il fugitive from JUS
ticc law which provides that the
governor of the state may in any case
authorized by the constitution and
laws of the United States make IL de-
mand upon the governor of any other
state for the delivery over of any per-
son charged in such state with treason,
felony or any other crime. Each state
has also a law which authorizes it's
governor to turn over to the governor
of any other state any fugitive when
proper demand is made. But it rests
with the governor upon whom the de-
mnnd is made to make proper invcsti
cation to learn whether or not the de-
mand is made according to law and
what the grounds of the demands are.
1t is not for the governor to pass up
on the guilt or innocence of the person
charged, but upon the regularity of the
demand and whether or not the
charge is for eNtrndictable OiTenSe
Yet, the governor of Indiana has re-
fused to return Taylor to Kentucky
on the ground that he is not guilty of
the crime charged. The courts of IL
state have no jurisdiction outside of
the state, and the eXtradictiOn of fugi-
lives rests largely upon the comfy of
states. If all the southern states
should assume the position of the
Governor of Arkansas. Il serious con-
dition of affairs would result. Cover
nor Durbin. by his disregard of law
for political reasons, has opened the
way for men of political influence and
standing to escape trial and punish

IRISH EMIGRATION.

In another column of this issue APP
pears an address delivered by the
Most Rev. DR.. Sheehan, Bishop of
Waterford, Ireland, at an anti-emi-
grafton conference held at Cork.
The Importance of emigration upon
the final solution of the Irish land
question has not until recent years
been recognized by the friends of Ire
land. For some time William
O'Brien, in the Irish People. has been
leading crusade against Irish emil
grafton. At last the Importance of the
question has been recognized by the
other leaders and the formation of an
anti-emigration society is the result.
The purpose and aim of that society is
to organize and work against the fur
Their emigration of the Irish people
from Ireland. The purpose of the Or
ganization is worthy of the co-opera-
ton of all friends of Ireland the world
over. If successful fight for Irish
nationality is to be made it is mani
fest that the Irish nation must remain
intact. If the emigration of the last
fifty years We're to continue, it is but
simple deduction to arrive at the
conclusion that there would be no
Irish nation in few years. The Irish
people would, like the Jews. be scat

ut is chief among the unaccountabc
mysteries of Dingleyism," says the
New York Post, that an import duty
is levied on wheat, Il duty which does
not bring a dollar to anybody's pocket
and was never asked for by anybody,
but which prevents valuable and
continuous grist from coming to our
mills. The only theory on which it
can be explained is that the tariff
makers feared that if they did not
include all agricultural products in
their schedules the silly farmers would
think that they were not protected
along with the rest of the family, and
would rise up and smite Dingleyism.

can millers of Il grist lying in their
own vicinity. and American railways
of valuable freight, and American
laborers of the wages they might earn
by handling the crops of Manitoba
The only persons who gain by our
tariff on wheat are the millers, rail
ways, steamships, and wageworkcrs of
foreign countries. We are glad to
know that the people of Minnesota are
becoming alive to the opportunities
for trade with Canada which they
might have enjoyed any time during
the past quarter Of a century if they

We print i'll this issue an article
Which recently appeared in the New
York Sun, relative to Lord Dudley
and his administration as Eiceroy in

purported interview With an Irish
Nationalist Member of Parliament. 1t
is i'll our opinion very doubtful that
any Of the present Nationalist mem
bers OF Parliament gave such an in
tervlew, but even if such We're the
fact we do not hesitate to say that the
picture is much colored in favor of
the present lord-lieutenunt. 1t is hard
~ correct to say that any English
Niceroy can be popular in Ireland I'M
der existing conditions. 1t is doubt
less true that Lord Dudley is less un-
popular than any Viceroy Ireland ever
had. That Lord Dudley had any
thing to do with bringing about the
passage of the Land Bill is Il dream
pure and simple. Lord Dudley has
himself said that the land bill was
the product of the Irish nation and
that the Conservatives had little to do
with it. This is the truth. Lord bud.
ley is inclined to be pacific in his treat
ment of Ireland and is on the whole
Il very satisfactory ruler considering
the conditions under which he rules
But in so far as the article CONVEYS
the impression that the Irish people
are contented with English rule as it
now exists the article is erroneous.

Gaelic Speech in New.York.

Two lrishmen in New York made "a.
bet one day. Though both were born
i'll the little green isle they were not
the same kind of Irishmen One was
an enthusiast and the other was ~,
scoffer. The enthusiast bet that in IL
half hours walk, taken at random,
through New York, lie could raise a1r
answer in the Irish language wherever
he chose to speak it. The scoffer scof-~
fed.
They went down on West street
first, and stopped ut the first groupe of.
dock laborers. The enthusiast let fall
a salutation in the Gaelic. He got ats
answer so quick that-well, it cost
him the drinks for old Ireland before:
he got away.
Next he went into a dry goods store
Behind the counter stood Il girl witls
blue eyes. He let fall word Of
Gaelic, and though it did not cost hing
the drinks this time, he got an an
swer and quotation from a verse of.
Irish poetry: and the girl was born i1e
New York, too.
Last they wandered out on an ol&
pier, where come the boats of little
old New England line. Out OH the end
they found Il shack, wherein sat q;
white haired clerk at the desk where,
he had been sitting for the last Sc
or 10 years. The enthusiast sized ur.
the old man and said something i1r
Irish. He got all answer that nearly
wrung his hand off, and then the twes,
of them, believer and doubter, were
shown a box full of books in the.
Gaelic, some of them dating back to-
the early days of printing. which the
old clerk had slowed away in his
little office.
Conservative Irishmen place the
disappearing population of New York.
at $4,000. Others. who claim just as

remembered that Irish is still spoken

Donegal and Galway, in Sligo. Mayo

by the marked difference between the

and Cardinal Manning all had upon
them that curious stamp of definite
