IRISH D1sA LESS ACUTE.

The TT. Hon Horace PIunkett. foun-
der of the Irish Agricultural Organiza-
tion society and original promoter oil
agricultural cooperation, spent last
Saturday in 3ostOn, Oh Ms way west
While Mr.. Plunkett is telling Aineri-
cans of the success of the new land act
in Ireland. and the government party
in that country is ieriding the tales OF
distress in the impoverished west, q
representative OF the New York Eve
ming World writes on Christmas eve
as the result OF his own Investigations
on the spot that the suffering IS 80
acute that the governments inacton
Is criminal. He says:
"The poor peasants complain about
the .congested districts board, which
is ostensibly formed by the gov
ernment to assist them IN removing
from the bleak mountain side to the
rich low-lying lands. If the ostensibte
object had been carried out, there
would be no cry Of famine from the
west today. What the oongested dis
tricts board has done has been 10 re-
move the unfortunate people from one
tract of bad land to another tract OF
bad land. 1t has done this. the people
assert. in the interests of the grazers,
and my observations confirm the alle-
cations that the congested districts
board has done and is dong nothing
to provide the people with better land.
Under these circumstances. a recur-
renee of distress, if not famine, is inA
evitahle in West Connaught each year.
What are the land act and American
AGRICULTURAL methods to these defraud-
ed people, who are far lass considered
in the choice of land than are the cat
tie for whom fat pastures are kept?
Such iniquities explain the O'Donovan
Rossas, even though not justlfying
their counssls or practical politics. BY
the way, Ny. Rossa Indignantly repu-
dates the story that he tore up Brit
ish flag on the Cunard iine pier as he
was leaving New York.-Boston Pilot.

FIGHTING THE TREATY.

The Ancient Order of Hibernians of
Massachusetts,, numbering about $4,000
members, went on record as opposing
treaty of arbitration between the
United States and Great Britain. A
letter of protest inciosing the resolu-
tion was sent from the. state headquar-
ters to the presidents of each division
of the order. The resolutions declare
that the ratification of the treaty,
coupled with the willingness of Sec
retary of State Hay to take concurrent
action with the English government
in all the important questions. may
preeipitate war with one or more of
the great powers of the world.
Continuing, the resolutions say:
such a treaty of arbitration, thus OBJ
tained, will have all the force and eff
feet of a treaty of alliance would hay e,
and concurrent action with England
under these conditions would inevitably
lead to war without the consent OF con-

Catholic Advertising.

Catholics who desire to con-
tribute their full share to the
success of Catholic journalism
should patroni5e those business
firms whose advertisements ap-
pear in their Catholic paper.
And they should make it known
that this is one Of the consider
atoms of their trading. It may
be put down as a rule that the
houses which do not advertise in
your Catholic paper are un-
friendly to it.
The fact that firm does ad-
vertise in yodr Catholic paper
is a guarantee that it considers
your patronage worth the hay
ing. 1t is a guarantee that it
believes you a desirable GUS
toner and is willing to patron
ize your paper to secure you.
Such people are worthy of your
patronage and you should al
ways scan your paper to see
who they are. If you have money
to spend they are the people
who should have the first call
on it.

/ The Statesman's Year Book fo, 1904

! country as fifth in naval strength. the
| order being Britain, France. Germany,
| Russia. United States, Japan and

number built and authorized to be built
is twenty Within the next four
years the actual fighting strength Of
! the United States navy will more than
double. This increase will materially
alter its rank. It will move from fifth
place to third in the total tonnage of
fighting vessels. The present rank and
comparative strength of the five largest
navies now and in 1907 may be seen
from the following table:
Rank in 1907. Present rank
Great Britain. l ,s67, ,230. tons 1.516.04O tons
France 49,. 755,751 tons 576,10S tons

In spite of the fact that the French
navy will. still exceed that of the Unit
ed States in total tonnage in 1907. yet
the Naval Annual of 1904, a British
publication of authority on naval mat
ters, says: The United States will
shortly become the second naval power
of the world
This is doubtless a surprise even to
those most closely in touch with the
naval progress of this government.
