The destruction of property at Ar
mOurdale has been enormous, and the
suffering entailed upon thousands of
people who are out of work is terrible.
In cases of this kind, though the bulk
of the workers recover themselves,
there are also many who never recover
at all, but go under completely, This
is mostly the case with older men, who
cannot strike out into new lines.

That $1,000 printing affair seems to
cause good deal of trouble. The
House wants to handle the money
without passing it through the hands
of the Auditor. The question now is
whether the House can legally do this.
The Legislature in its regular session
could have done this, but whether the
House in special session can do other
than appropriate in the ordinary for
work to be done upon the expired regu-
lar session, is a neat legal point.

Russia has promised to evacuate
Manchuria by September. BY that time
the winter will be close at hand, and it
will be found inconvenient to move the

comes there will be the same vacilla-

procrastination with his '1Manana," he
is nothing to the Russian with his
"Saychass."

His colleague in parliament for many
years was the late Mr.. Johnston, of
Ballykilbeg, an honest tirebrand and
fanatic, whose earthly career was
shortened by the conversion of his only
daughter to Catholicity. His son, too,
despsed Orangeism and became an
Irish Nationalist Of the most advanced
type. His children may be said to
have brought his gray hairs with sor-
row to the grave. Old Johnston, how
ever, was a better man in every way
than Col. Saunderson and though a
genuine bigot he had many estimable
traits of character, and was well liked
by his Catholic neighbors.
Col. Saunderson's prestige has been
on the Wane since the South African
war. Though wearing military title
he smelled the battle from afar and
remained at home. When twitted ON
his lack of patriotism by an Irish
member Of parliament the valorous
Saunderson set the House in a roar
by saying he had stayed at home for
the purpose Of watching you Irish
fellows, who are all traitors" His
lame excuse for his abstention FROM
the scene Of war did not elevate him
i'll the eyes of his Orange brethren in
Sandy Row, and now they will recog-
nize him as a grandmother no longer.
That is the best news received from
Belfast in many year.

that her pastor would perform the
ceremony, as he was not identified
with any religious body himself. Miss
Chambers promptly informed him that
she would never get married outside
btr church and that the nuptials could
rot he celebrated. Her father, who is
a non Catholic, approved of his daugh-
ters decision and said: Il have moth
ing but the deepest respect for the
rels:o n which can control the actions
of woman to such an extent. While
have no religious faith myself, feel
deeply for the convictions of my wife,
from whom my daughter gets her be-
lief. l have nothing to say regarding
the young man, except that he could
not bc worthy of her if he could stand
out against her religious faith when
he has none himself"

In a recent address to Il high school
graduating class, Prof. G. NJ. Jordan,
of Minneapolis, said: Great stress
is usually put upon me value Of educa-
ton, but l would rather have girl
who could keep house than one who
could master all the Greek and Latin
in the high school curriculum, but who
didn't know anything else" Supt.
Jordan may be pleased to know that
a priest in Kansas City agrees with
him. In Il recent sermon he said:
sit makes no difference, boys. how
bright her eyes, how red her cheeks,
or how well she can play the piano OF
dance, if she is not good housekeep-
er don't marry her. 1 am convinced
that large portion, perhaps the major
portion of marital unhappiness, is
caused by the Wifes lack of knowledge
of matters pertaining to her house
hold duties.''

The Contemporary Review has a fiat
tcring notice of Il book entitled
priests and People of Ireland" by
Michael J. Il. Mccarthy, Dublin bar
rister, who modestly styles himself "a
Roman Catholic gentleman" Nc
Carthy is Unionist and, if we mis-
take not a Trinity College graduate.
The reviewer of his book says: '"The
author, Il devout Roman Catholic, look
ing on the misery of his country, and
seeking a cause, finds it in the abuses
of his own Church." or course, Nc
earthly must be "a devout Roman
Catholic" or he would not have blamed
the prelatcs and priests Of his Church
for the miseries of Ireland. Unfortun-
atcly, we have too many "devout Ro-
man Catholics like Mccarthy. You
meet them everywhere. They are the
fellows accidentally born in the Church
who never go to the sacraments.

At a meeting of delegates of Irish
societies in New York last Sunday
night to consider the case of Col
Lynch, President r. J. Kennedy Of the
United Irish league sensibly said: II
advocate policy of silence, so far as
the American-Irish in this country are
concerned. OF course, the twenty
million American-Irish must have a
heavy influence in England in case
they move conservatively. Therefore,
I think it best to await Instructions
from Ireland, and especially from
Australia, where Col. Lynch was born,
and where, CT course, a deep feeling
in his behalf must exist.''

The peace, and quiet, and prosperity

The peace, and quiet, and prosperity
which has been secured i'm the cases
of the 10000 tenants who have been
enabled by government aid to purchase
their land was pointed out.
"That represents the source of the
entire trouble today" asserted Capt.
ShaweTaylor. sit was the govern
ment itself which has given the i'm
petus to the land agitation now grip
ping the west of Ireland. The ten
ants who still pay rents see their
neighbors purchasing their own hold
ings at reduced annual payments.
They see them with enlarged farms
and with their comforts in life con-
stantly increasing. Could there be
anything else but dissension? 1t is
most unreasonable to look for anything
except the unrest now prevailing there.
There are just two ways out Of the
dificulty-undo all purchase that has
been allowed, which cannot be done
i'll any possible way if peace is to be
preserved, or to go ahead and allow
all tenants the same privilege, which
can be done, and bring Ireland's pros
perity Of the old days back again and
inspire it's people with industry and
hope"
This, it will be seen by the readers
of these letters, is practically the same
stand taken by Sir Antony NIacDon-
nell, Ireland's new under secretary; by
Redmond, Russell, O'Brien, and other
nationalist, and serves to show how
small is the line of division between
these two forces which have been
running Ireland for generations.
Capt. Shawe-Taylor argues for JUS
tice and fairness to the landlords for
another reason other than this as be-
ing the only course to facilitate pur-
chase. He believes the majority of
the Irish landlords should do some
thing for their country.
''In the event Of universal purchase
which can be the only remedy to bring
peace" said he, ''these men must be
kept i'll Ireland. BY opportunity they
have been enabled to secure education
where the mass of the people have not.
But they are now practically blotted
out of the political life of the island.
The local government act, by enfranch-
Using the people, has cut off their repre-
sentation on the county and district
councils. This same vote is sending
tenant sympathizers to the house Of
commons.
''The landlords are being crowded
out with each election. But they
must be kept here after land purchase.
They must be placed in public life
again and made to work for their
country's advancement. With the land
wrangling out of the way, too, there
will be no reason why this condition
should not be brought about. But
the English garrison can do nothing so
long as existing circumstances con-
tlnue. They are detriment to Ire
land; they are an injury to England.

A SPLIT IN THE ORANGE CAMP,

The Dublin papers just received an
nounce a disruption in the ranks of the
Belfast followers of William Of Orange,
the most pestiferous vagabonds that
ever cursed the soil of Ulster It is
glad news for all Irislrmen at home
and III foreign lands to hear that the
Orange order is gradually going to
pieces from the dissension Of it's lead
ers.
The City of Belfast, the headquarters
Of this Infamous society Of sectarian
bigots, has acquired an unenviable
notoriety by reason of the riots and
disturbances created within it's walls
by unprincipled scoundrels in the name
OF religious liberty. Many scenes Of
bloodslled and slaughter have the i'll
habitants of Belfast witnessed OH the
10Th of July, the anniversary Of the
battle of the Boyne, which was fought
in the year 1890. And, strange to say
it is descendants Of the arrant towards
in that memorable battle who cclcbrat-
cd the day by wanton attacks upon
their fellow citizens of the Catholic
faith.
In recent years, the Orangemen have
not been so bloodthirsty, owing to the
fact that Catholics have been growing
stronger in numbers to defend them
selves from assault, but the latter have
been ostracised from every position OF
honor and emOlument in their native
city. Dublin. Cork, Limerick, Gal
way and Waterford, where Catholics
predominant, have frequently elected
Protcstants as chief magistrates, hut
Belfast has never elected a Catholic to
any office in the gift of the people,
When the Orange association goes to
pieces a better day will dawn on the
Catholics Of Belfast, and from all ac-
counts the day of Orange ascendancy
is about over ut last
1t is stated for fact that Col. Saun-
derson, Nj. F., has rendered his resigna-
tion as grandmother of the Belfast
Orange institution, and that after the
expiration Of his present term in par
lament he will not be candidate for
reelection. He has become unpopular
with his brethren because of his aftilia-
ton with the landlords of Ulster, and
hence, he will be compelled to retire
to private life shorn of his honors and
dignities rs an Orange leader

GUILTY OF HIGH TREASON.

After trial Which lasted but three
days, Col. Arthur Lynch, Nj. p. for Gal
way, was found guilty of high treason
by an English judge and jury for aid
ing the Beers in their gallant fight for
independence. His defense by Horace
Avory and his colleagues was very
weak and the trial was Il tame affair
from beginning to end The prisoner
did not display any cowardice in the
dock. lie kept cool and composed.
and when asked why sentence of death
should not be passed upon him he
simply said that he had nothing to
say.
Anybody who expected Col Lynch
to make speech in vindication of
his course in South Africa was doomed
to disappointment. He probably e,.-
pccted Il Communication of the death
penalty to Imprisonment and kept sill
ent on the advice of his lawyers. What
ever may have been his motive he
said nothing when sentenced to eXpi-
rate his crime on the gallows. Though
a subject Of the Transvaal Republic,
as he claimed, he had not Il word to
say in justification of taking up arms
against Great Britain. He changed
his allegiance during the war and
thereby won the admiration of the
mi 81, l,p I1n tnl II IN, ,,I;,
ment.
Col. Lynch is an Australian by birth
and at his trial manifested no spirit of
Irish nationality. Perhaps that may
account for the fact that the Irish
Nationalist refrained from comment
ing on the injustice of his sentence Of
capital punishment. Had he shown
the characteristic courage of Irishmen
Of the past who were found guilty Of
high treason by an eloquent denuncia-
ton Of England for her war of brig
antlage in South Africa, and pro-
claimed that he took up the sword in
the cause of BOer freedom, the
Irish race at home and abroad would
look upon him as !; martyr. But his
lawyers said he joined the Beers to get
news Of war for i, magazine and not
as Il champion of liberty. No wonder
that the sentence of death passed upon
him has been committed to penal sery-
itude for life, and it will surprise 10
body If he does not remain long in
prison.
We do not see amy occasion for Irish
Americans to get excited over the fate
of Col. Lynch. The Irish OF Galway
elected him to parliament while he
was in South Africa, though they had
rejected him when he was Il candidate
in the days of ParileIl. They must
now hold another election and select Il
candidate who is not guilty of high
treason. If they had not elected lynch
to represent them in London he would
not now be in Il British Jail 1t is
not because of his military career in
the Boer army that he is punished,
but because of his election to parlia-
mrnt by an Irish constituency.
