an order that only Bell telephones shall

the fact that Mr.. Payne is a stakeholder
in the Bell Telephone company may
have had something to do with the

The problems to be discussed by

however, that the situation today is
very similar to that which confronted
the Irish party in America some %
years or more ago, when Messrs. Par
nell and Biggar were only beginning
to be heard from as dissentionists in
the party under the leadership of
Isaac Butt, when Lord Beaconfield
was still Mr.. Risraeli, when the Irish
church was not yet disestablished,
when Lord Randolph Churchill had
not yet been heard of and when the
Irish agitation In England was mark
chester and Clerkenwell. Such is the
starting point from which the pres
ent convention will base its line OF
action, but Just what direction that
action will take none of the promi-
nent participants cares to say.
The delegates to the convention
number nearly 1000 and represent
every large center of population from
Maine to California At the formal
opening today a rousing welcome
was accorded to the Irish parliament
tary delegation, consisting of John
E. Redmon, Patrick OBrien, A. ]. c.

VACUUM Method
OF EXECUTION

Advices from Toxic state that the
Japanese government has abandoned
the electric chair method of execut-
ing criminals, which was copied after
that used in various parts of this
country, in favor of a method which
is considered more advanced and hui

other nation. Under the new method
death is dealt out by means of a

extinguished in record time, and with
a minimum of suffering by the al
most instantaneous exhaustion of air.

.F0E: IRELAND'S CAUSE

NEW YORK, Aug. 3o.-After more
than a quarter of a century of par
liamentary agitation the Irish cause
in America is to be put on a new
footing The United Irish league of
America, which began its convention
in the Lexington opera house In this
city today, intends to direct its eff
forts toward securing complete au-
tonomy for Ireland.
The United Irish league of America
was organized three years ago, and
has grown very rapidly since that
time. In the last two years there
has been an increase of more than
40 per cent in the number of branches
located throughout the country. Its
purpose is to act as auxiliary in
America to the national organization
in Ireland, whose primary declara-
ton is: This society is constituted
for the purpose of forwarding a
brotherhood of affection, a commun-
ion of rights, and a union of power
among Irishmen."
The ends which the league strives
to attain are: Full national self-gov-
eminent for Ireland; the abolition Of
landlordism in Ireland by means Of
a universal and compulsory system
of land purchase; putting an end to
periodical famine in the distressed
districts Of Ireland; to insist upon
the appropriation to strictly Irish
national uses of the sl5.000.000 at
present annually exported from Ire
land for the benefit of England in ex-
cess of the contribution stipulated by
the act Of union; to secure the redis-
tribution of the grazing ranches of
Connaught, and the reinstatement of
the eyicted tenants; 10 secure COM
plete educational equality for all
creeds in Ireland; to secure the COM
pulsory extension throughout Ireland
of the law providing agricultural la
borers with cottages and one-acre al
lotments; to secure the abolition Of

tor Press: VIII lou give me space
TO reply to some of the dirty filings
at organized labor by the Spokesman
Review? This mongrel what-is-it
has carried on a systematic campaign
of lies, Islander and inunendo against
labor for years. Since the begin
ming of the class struggle in Colora-
do il has lied knowingly, wilfully,
maliciously and persistently about
the striking miners in an effort to
convince the public that the miners
are set of lawless anarchists, and
they, and they alone, are to blame
for Colarado's shame.

tween a wolf and hyena-it returns

stripe in lobbying to prevent its en-
actment after the people had COM

of 46,714 votes, and then says: The
effect of this upon the miners may

strike to enforce what should have
been a state law, 1t is just such
doings as these that drive men to
socialism. Mr.. Preach: Your remedy
is the ballot: vote and get your
rights Here voting did no good"
Again he says: "Out of the five
prieipal demands of the unions on
their employers two of them were
to enforce laws already on the stat
ute books of Colorado, and third
the eight hour law, was already
constituted law
Now listen to this: Here is the
bedrock fact as to the situation in
Colorado: If the laws on the stat
ute books, including the eight hour
law. which should have been enacted,
had been obeyed, there would have
been no disturbance last year
And yet again: Have not the cor
pora lions of Colorado defeated the
will of the people; have they not
broken laws every day, without pun
ishment? Have not the citizens al
liances driven men from their homes
and families? Has not even the leg

law of the republic, the will of the
people, for private, or political, or
selfish ends?"
