An Increase in Irish immigration.

The immigration figures Of arrivals at
the port of New York during the first
Ave months of 1903 indicate that for the
entire year there will be an increase Of
20 per cent. in the number of Irish immi-
grants compared with year ago.
II Is true that even that increased num-
Der will be small as compared with
the emigration from Italy, Austria-Hun-
gary and Russia, but any increase in
emigration from Ireland at this time is
somewhat surprising, for the present
business conditions in Ireland seem to be
more than usually satisfactory. Much
new capital is being invested in rail-
road and industrial enterprises; it is ex-
pected that the Land Purchase project,
if adopted, will remove at least one cause
of dissatisfaction and uncertainty, and
the Irish harvests have been uniformly
good of recent years. Still, the drain
Of emigration to America continues
unchecked and now its volume is in
oreasing, though its total remains small
relatively to that of the period between
lS4e and 1880. From 1921 to 1881 Irish
immigration to this country aggregated

the enormous number Of s,ls1 ,o74, or an
average Of nearly TOO, 900 for each decade.
For the year ending with June. 1907, the
total Irish immigration was only 29.lSs'
and an increase in it this year OF one
fifth would make only about $4,000. But
that it should increase at all, with the
home conditions. existing and PROMISED
is very significant.
Bishop SHEEHAN of Waterford and
Lismore, speaking at Dungarvan re-
Gently, amented that the drain OF the
active working population is rendering
the country almost helpless, and de-
ciared that it imposed duty, the duty
of the hour, on all public men to do their
utmost to stop it. There was time, he
said, when they might have shrunk from
the task, dismayed by the condition OF
affairs in Ireland, but the condition OF
things in America for many years past,
during which the exodus had gone on
undated. would, according to his view,
have fully justified those in authority in
warning the Irish people against joining
in an almost desperate fight for exist
ence in American cities, which already
had swallowed up thousands OF Irish
men who might have lived comfortably
in their own land. The American letter,
with its money order to assist the old
folks at home, the Bishop confessed did
much to create this fatal fascination
and increase the rush to the United
States.
Very likely the withdrawal OF 80 large
a proportion OF the able-bodied, robust
and industrious of the population-s9 per
cent Of the Irish immigrants landing
at this port last year were between the
ages Of IA and 45-has an unfavorable
effect on the condition OF business in Ire
land, whatever the efforts of the British
Government or of Irishmen at home or
abroad to improve it. But, SO far as this
country is concerned, the small Offset
to the present vast immigration from
southern and eastern Europe afforded
by the Irish immigration will not be re-
garded unfavorably.

The Psychology OF Husbands.

The faculty of the Ruskin University,
which emigrated from Trenton, Mo-, to
Glen Ellyn, ILL.,, not long ago, has re-
solved to build breakwater against the
sea O divorce Why are there 80 many
divorces Because so many wives do
not understand their husbands. A
young woman is married before she has
had an opportunity to study many speci-
mems of this queer animal, Man. His
ways of thought, his mental idiosyncra-
sizes, the kinks in his convolutions, are
essentially unknown to her. Friction
and incompatibility are developed; and
divorce follows.
The remedy or preventive is psy-

of that. Miss ADA c. SWEET, dis

Runcie Ought to he Tried. Not Wood

The Atlanta Constitution is partly wrong
and partly right in these remarks upon an
anomalous state OF affairs:
THE SUN is especially savage in its pursuit OF
Gen woop. and insists that he should ask for
court Of Inquiry 10 the end OF generating himself
from the charge of inspiring the Runce article and
which charge Gen. WOOD has denied
We hold no brief on either side OF the case. but
in simple Justice TO the facts II would appear the
more proper thing for Major RuNcIs to ask for the
court OF inquiry. He Is the signatory Of the article
complained Of and his explanation Is that Gen.
woop seduced him Into writing It and giving II 10

Gen. WOOD is the really agEreved party and for
the completely In the attack on Gen BROOKE. which
he says he unwngly bears, he should seek tho
relief that court of inquiry In his own case might
afford
In the first paragraph quoted above
there are three misstatements. The
Sun is not especially savage in the pur-
suit of Gen. WooD; it has not insisted or
even suggested that he should ask for a
court of inquiry; and Gen. WooD, so far
as we know, has never denied the charge
of inspiring the Runcie article.
The rest Of the Constitutions remarks,
barring some minor inaccuracies due to
misunderstanding of the facts, are very
much to the point. RUNCIE and not
WooD is the proper subject OF official
prosecution at this time. Either pur-
posely or foolishly, as the event will de-
termine, he has got himself into the posi-
ton of persistent defamer of a superior
officer. The story Of WOODS initial part
in the attack on BROOKE through the
North American Reriew Mr.. RUNcIE has
narrated 80 many times and to 30 many
different persons, and with such out
spoken characterization, and has like
wise to our positive knowledge committed
the same story to writing, that he seems
actually to be challenging the inquiry
which the case requires and defying the
punishment which he deserves in an ex-
emplary degree if it turns out that he is a
slanderer.
For this offence Major JAMES E. Run
Gle, First Lieutenant Of the United States
Army on the retired list, should be held
responsible by the military authorities
at Washington; not for the original
offence of writing the North American
Rerieu article, as he says, at Gen. WOODS
request, for that offence against disci-
pline, we understand is technically out
lawed by the time intervening.
And il the War Department for any
reason prefers not to stir up this matter
the situation may very easily become
such that Major RUNc1E will have to con-
slider the alternative Of demanding ar
inquiry himself or suffering some loss Of
esteem and confidence on the part of his
friends in the army and elsewhere.
The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1903-06-23
Dechristianizing the Public Schools.

The question OF Bible reading in the
public schools, once a cause OF bitter
controversy between Catholics and Prot
estants, has now been succeeded by the
beginning OF what may be a considerable
controversy over the schools between
Christians and Jews.
During the last fifteen years and more
especially during the last few years, the
Jews have become part OF the popu-
lation so great that they are Of a political
importance which they are not slow to
appre ciate at it's full value and to use
for the benefit OF their race and religion.
The public schools and colleges now
contain very many thousands OF Jewish
pupils and students. Probably OF no other
race are there more, even il as many.
Accordingly, the Jews have demanded
and secured the arrangement OF exam
nations and of school sessions so that
these shall not interfere with the relig-
ious duties Of the Jewish pupils.
At the convention OF the union OF the
Orthodox Jewish congregations, on Sum
day, it was reported that this movement
to influence the school policy had been
carried to the extent of objection t, any
thing in the public instruction savoring
of Christianity distinctively. 1t was COM
planned that the bylaws for the OPEN
ing of the schools with the reading Of a
few verses in the Bible had been inter-
preted in some cases to allow the reading
Of verses from the New Testament.
And, again. that among the songs taught
the children were included Christian
hymns; that at about the Christmas
holiday season, more especially, plays,
hymns and other exercises OF distinc-
lively Christian character are taught
and recited."
The report says that when these COM
plants were made to Supt. MAXWELL he
assured the committee that the Board OF
Education would instruct the teachers
that it would not countenance the
practices.
That is, the old Christian demand
that the secularizaton Of education
should not go to the extent of excluding
the reading Of the Bible in schools has
been succeeded by Jewish demand for
their dechristianization. New York can
no longer be regarded as a Christian
city.
