IRISH LEAGUE ISSUES BOOK
Pamphlet Dealing with Endorsement
of Laborers Act IL Pub
lished by Society.

DUBLIN, Jan. 6.--(Speoial.)-Th United
Irish league has Just published pamph-
let containing Instructions as TO the best
manner of putting the laboreP's act of 1906
into force The pamphlet opens with
description of the act and a comparison
with the previous law, Mr.. Wyndham
having facilitated the passage of the land
act by express pledges of legislation on be-
half of laborers brought In the following
session a bill which was rather an ag-
gravation than a redress OF their griev-
ances. The Irish party appeared reluctant
TO recommend the rejection of 50 colorless
a measure. They accordingly let the second
reading OF the bill pass and proceeded
laboriously TO amend it in committee.
When amendments Of value were intro
duced Mr.. wyndham proceeded 20 kill his
own Inflated offspring. The result of the
agitation which followed was the act of
1906, which is described in the pamphlet
as a great improvement on its predeces-
sors; IT gets rid Of mort of their delays,
obstructions, and coils OF red tape and
substitutes a cheap. speedy and efficient
procedure which If it can only be placed
in the hands of capable and business-like
inspectors of the local government board
with courage to face the difficulties Of the
situation resolutely will In a few short
years transform the face Of the country.
and effect a most salutary change in the
housing Of the laborers of Ireland"

british Representative in Nigeria
Makes Long Journey Through

CAIRO, Jan 5.-(Special. )-According to
reports received here from Nafada in the
hinterland of Senegal Mr.. Hans Vischer
British assistant resident at Kano, Nigeria,
has reached Malfoni after an adventurous
journey across the Sahara from Tripon.
His route was through Murzuk, Turkish
garrison town 600 miles south of Tripoli, and
then south across the desert to the oasis of
Bilma-
Bilma lies 1000 miles south of Tripoli.
Mr. Vischer, who is of Swiss extraction,
originally intended to start his return jour
ney from England to his post at Kano.
Numerous delays caused Mr.. Vischer to
make his start much later than anticipated.
number of native pilgrims returning to
their homes from Mecca heard of Mr..
vischer's projected Journey and obtained
permission to accompany him. He Travelled
as an official representative of the British
government and there is no doubt that his
journey will have an important effect in
increasing British prestige among the Ma
hommedans of Western Africa.
No European of the present generation
has previously accomplished the journey
through the heart of the great Sahara.
The route apart from the most trying oil
matte conditions is very dangerous lying as
It does amid the territories of uncontrolled
and savage tribes.
