The Irish in Argentina.

There is an extremely interesting ar
ticle in a recent number of the New
Ecrk Daily News on the irish in Argen-
who has recently been in Ireland, when
he identified himself prominently with
tie Gaelic movement. The Irish he
says, first appeared in the countries of
the River Plate attthe close of the eigh-
tenth century. III those days the vast
herds that roamed' over the pampds had
10 other destination than the talloW
boiler. The ITishmen, however, had
learned the art of sailing beef, and
started an enterprise in this direction,
which was successful, The beef in
Gustry prospered, notwt hstanding the
years of civil strife which followed the
wars for independence at tie beginning
of the nineteenth century, and with its
prosperity Irish emigration to Buenos
Ayres increased. Some of the emigra-
tloneWas from County, Clare. some from
Kerry, some from Wexford, but the
LUX of it was from Longford and
v estmeath. The efnigrants did not
like the lonely patnpas, and by degrees
drifted backward toward the capital.
7hereupon came upon the SCENE Fa-
Their Anthony Fahy, Dominican friar,
from Leughrea. He became guide,
philosophers and friend to the Irish ex-
lies, encouraged them to be thrifty, and
became their banker. They trusted him
and as result the irish have now
great position, considering their num-
bers, in the Argentine republic.

Sensational Antrim Story.

! The officials attached to a certain
postGffice in a County Antrim district
have for a long time past been notari-
Gus for a display of craftsmanship to-
ward people having business TO trans
act there, and which has caused much
annoyance to Catholic and nationalist
inhabitants of the locality. who have
been singled out for special marks of
disfavor on all occasions that their
business has brought them to the Of
flee in question. Matters, however,
reached a more serious stage on a re-
ceat date The postmiStress was trans
acting some official business with n
farmer from the district, and while this
was going on her husband, who was in
a drunken state, was, according to an
esteemed correspondent, says the Irish
News, entertaining some folk in the
kitchen with stereotyped Orange dia-
tribes against the pope and everything
Catholic. His business being done. the
gentleman in question. before passing
from the office, turned into the kitchen
to very properly protest against such
a display of bigOtry in an establish
ment maintained at the public expense.
The appearance of this gentleman,
who, we may add, is most respecta-
BILE Catholic, on the scene, only en-
ragged the landlord, who, jumping to his
feet, in his rage stumbled against
gun lying convenient. Greatly alarmed,
the gentleman inquired if the weapon
was loaded, and the other replied it
was not but soon would be, and suiting
the action to the word, he put in
cartridge and discharged the gun in
the direction of the fireplace, Kidding
the mantlepiece, etc. The dense volume
of smoke, mingled with the fireside
ashes, sent flying by the explosion, at
once convinced the customer that that
posteffice was not a wholesome atmns-
phere for a Catholic, and he naturally
made himself scarce without delay.

disappointed. The arrival of the train
was greeted with ringing and pro-

which he travelled was stormed, so
eager and enthusiastic was the crowd
to receive Rosa. The brass band was
in attendance, and as the train steamed
slowly in God Save Ireland" was
played in spirited style, and Rosa was
carried on the shoulders of the people
to a brake. Addressing the people he

A PRIESTS CRUSADE.
Dean McNulty of Patterson, N. j., /,
the Terror of Saleonkeepers.

Dean MeNulty of Paterson, N j., is
an old man. Forty-one years he has
been pastor of st. Johns church, and
during all that time he has been the
terror of lawless saloonkeepers and pro-
rlaetors of evil resorts, the hope and
succor of the wives and families OF poor
factory workers whose wages so nlea-
gerly suffice for their support that if
they spend Saturday night at the sa-
loon, there is only starvation and home
lessness for the week.
For more thar Il quarter of q century
the dean has made it his business to
see that the worleingmen of his parish
&C not spend Saturday night at the sa-
loon. He has waged a relentless cru
SAGE against drinking places where
poor men are tempted to squander their
earnings. His visor and uneonvention-
al methods in com batting the drink EVIL

Additional Irish News.
Irish Agriculture in Bad State.

The report of the Irish Agricultural
Organization society for 1902 and 1904
has now. been issued in pamphlet form
1t gives as appendices those regular
tabular statements, the absence of
which we noted at the date of the an
nual meeting. Contrary to what the
decisions of some of the Sub-commis-
sioners in the land courts would lead
one TO believe, the prices recorded in
these tables show no Improvement
whatever in the market for one of the
principal agricultural products. The
cFeameries are alleged to have saved
the Irish butter industry That they
have saved it from destruction in some
districts is possible: but that they have
not restored its prosperity is unfortu-
nately too clear from these returns
The average price per pound received
for the butter produced in the cream
cries was only 1929 in 1902 and II. Sod
in 1908. The cost of production per
pound was l.1Sd in the former year. and
1850 in the latter. The net price was
therefore only Gid in 1902 and 10Sd in
1908. How Cad and 10Ad per pound
for butter can justify the rents some
sub-commissioners are imposing at
present their consciences may tell 1t
works out at S&d per gallon for the
milk! This is the top price for the
Irish dairy farmer And as the refuse
product, unlike the old dairy refuse,
has to be supplemented by special
feeding stuffs if the calves are to be
reared, the real net price is even low
er,
A great many of the Agricultural So
cieties seem to be in a more or less
moribund condition. F'ifty-four out of
40 give no return to trade for 1908. |
One significant figure shows how sadly |
in want ,of working capital the Irish |
farmers are. The societies were sup |
posed to be worked on a cash basis so |
as TO avoid the middle profits. But |
in order to do so they have been com |
PEELED to borrow G1T.399 from the |
banks. The total trade for 1903 was
e70,127. The agricultural banks have |
1917 members; S,722 loans amounting |
to e20.435 were issued during the year, |
and G14,974 repaid. The net profit in
1903 was G2S6, as compared with G5S7
in the previous year. The expenses of.
working We're only 297. The banks
seem to be distinctly valuable.
