THAT FRANCHISE.

Alta meeting of the town council
Monday evening Mr.. Myers, a rep
resentative Of the mberland Tel
ephone and Telegraph Company,
was in the city and went before
the board. Formal application
was made for franchise to put in
telephone exchange.
This application for franchise
by the Cumberland company has
been repeated at intervals for the
past four or five years, and each
time the application has been re-
jected. When Mr.. Myers went
before the council Monday even
ing and renewed the application
for franchise, the council, by a
unanimous vote, refused to grant
the franchise. Mr.. Myers left for
Nashville in bad frame of mind.
The Cumberland company has
had box at Camden for several
years. BY way of retaliation and
to show tbs spirit which animates
them, they removed the box and
paraphanalia Wednesday.
The record of the company is
too we'll known here to need fur
ther comment, but the above act
merely illustrates one of the ways
and means the Cumberland people
have of showing their smallness.
tits just such acts and their noto-
rious disregard for the rights Of
others that has brought the COM
pany into disrepute here as well
as elsewhere.
Camden can get along without
the connection. The service has
been unsatisfactory, and even ag-
gravating at times, and the Cum
berland people can not expect the
citizens of Camden to look with
favor upon the granting of such
franchise when their service here
has been so notoriously bad.
The remains of Mrs. Florence
Melton, wife of Curtis Melton of
Mound City, ILL.,, were brought to
this county and given burial at
Bethlehem Cemetery Wednesday.
Rev. J. M. Pickens conducted the
burial services. Mrs. Melton died
at her home in Illinois Monday.
She was the daughter of Lowry
Holland of Eva, and was a most
estimable lady. Besides her hus-
band she leaves two children, one
an infant of only few weeks. We
extend sympathy to the bereaved
husband and relatives.

For a century the American ha.
sought no q%uarrels. He has only in

a quarrel with his interiors. Beina

ships to an alien harbor to demand
the release Of an American subject,
he is released.
Has the American any warrant
for the faith be has had in himself?
Has he not slept on the ground and
rested in the snow and rain; has he
not laid in the trenches in the water
and the heat; has he not marched
and suffered in the swamps; has he
not gone against Notifications with
small arms and uncomplainingly: dill
he not go up Bunker Hill twice and
would he not be going up yet had not
his power been exhausted: hasn't h.
gone into conflicts with foes on the
sea and the best soldiery on land
has he not continued to go toward
the enemy regardless of the enemy's
bullets; has he not fought more in
the open than any other man; has he
not been everywhere always brave.

fields where every helmet caught n
ray of the glory?" The American does
not shoot from the hip nor in volIeys;
he shoots from the eye to get the
enemy. He has been the best soldlr
living and tn 'hravest, and is the
noblest soldier dead.
Has the American just cause Cor

commerce of the world amounts 10

United States-the internal trade of
Americans with Americans, amounts
to $4,000, 100000 per annum, a sum
greater than all the foreign com.
merce of the world. |
We have a greater railway mileage |
than all Europe combined. We are
larger in territory than any of our
commercial rivals except Russia. We
have grown from 5000, 900 to S0,O00.-

brag about the Louisiana purchase.

DEFEAT For fANDLORDISM

Lord DeFreyne's Action Against Leaders of the
United Irish League for Conspiracy Postponed.
Under the direction of the landlords organiza-
tion in Ireland, Lord DeFreyne recently brought
An action against Redmond Dillon, Davitt O'Brien
and other Irish leaders and also against the Free
mans journal for alleged conspiracy to withhold
their rents with view to compelling him to sell
his estate. The case has now disappeared from the
law list. 1t was confidently hoped this action would
crush the United Irish League by piling up costs
and damages against it. as has been done against
English trades unions in the Taft Vale and other
cases.
1t was intended TO Try the case before a chan
Gerry Judge without jury but the defendants ap-
pealed and got decision that jury should be i'm
paneled Lord DeFreyne pressed the case and de-
manded immediate trial This now turns ont
to have been all bluff. The case has been postponed
nli October 1t has been settled The defendants
postponement however, amounts to the complete
defeat of DeFreyne and his followers The case
has cost the landlords more than $4,000 (S1500ol
legal expenses.

IRELAND THE LARDER OF ENGLAND.
(By DR.. r. Howley in July Donahoe's.l

y
Ireland has become the mere store-room and
Iarder of England, her wealthy grasping neighbor
England consumes all Ireland can produce and
camors for more. In return she kills Irish indus
tries IN the very root by supplying everything Ire
land could possibly manufacture-even at her very
best-on cheaper terms than the Irish manufac-
turer could accept. A suit of real Barney tweed
can be had cheaper in Manchester than in Cork.
Irish butter eggs, fish, are cheaper in London than
IN Dublin, though this produce is swamped in the
English market by Danish, Norman, Belgian and
Jersey imports inferior perhaps to the Irish in
quality, but far more and cleanly placed upon
the markets. The fact is that Ireland cannot pros
per or retain its youth aspiring to better things.
while hopelessly overshadowed By an English CON
ectlon She is forced to cater for and submit to
England's industrial demands without choice of
other issue for her productions America does much
10 conserve this state of things by heavily taxing
IRISH productions and overwhelming the struggling
island with her own cheaper and more abundant
produce. England may be able to stand that Ire
land cannot. But if Ireland was free self govern
ing, she could and would frame her own tariff with
America and open up new channels of trade else
where
