The BRITISH CRISIS.

wv. 0NsStSVV SNS0USs
The current number of the Inde-
pendent contains an article by Justin
Mccarthy OH the coming political
crisis in England, which certainly
ought to encourage the friends of Ire
land. Mr. Mccarthy has been for many
years the correspondent Of American
journals and his views upon questions
in English politics are entitled to very
great weight. AS an historian he has
a mind trained to observe closely and
to record accurately the result of hia
observations. AS scholar, he is
thoroughly familiar with English con-
stitutional questions of the present
and the past. AS a politician, of many
years experience as member Of the
House Of Commons, he has been
trained to study the trend Of political
sentiment. and although a strong and
patriotic Irishman, he is considered
everywhere the most conservative OF
Irish leaders. He has now no per-
sonal political ambition to be satis-
fed. He retired of his own free will
from the House Of Commons and the
Irish Parliamentary Party because OF
impaired health and a desire to give
his entire time and strength to literary
pursuits. The following statement
from him ought to reassure every
doubling Irshman Of the ultimate sue
cess OF the program of the Parlia-
mentary Party:
I'VE are on the eve of a great po-
ltical struggle. The next session Of
Parliament in England will open be-
fore the time usually appointed for
such events. and this coming event
certainly casts its shadow before in a
manner which promises, or threatens.
according as tho observer may chance
to regard 1t. some memorable fatalities
to follow. The Prime Minister, Sir
Henry Campbell-Bannerma an
nounced in a recent speech the deter
mination of the government to carry
out it's program with the strlctest re-
session. AS my American readers al
ready well know. the principal feature
| of that program is to be the measure
for compelling the House OF Lords to
submit to the House Of Commons on
the great legislative proposals already
made to the Peers and rejected by them
and il the House of Lords should per-
sist in the policy of obstruction, the
government will dissolve Parliament
and appeal to the country by means
of a general election. There can hard
ly be any question or doubt as to the
course which will be taken by the
country il the persistence of the Peers
in their recent. and indeed their habit
ual policy, should render necessary the
appeal to the national tribunal The
vast majority of the people in these
islands will sustain the government
against the House of Lords. Then, II
the same Liberal government should
return to power, about which there can
hardly be any reasonable doubt. Sir
Henry Campbell Bannerman and his
colleagues will bring forward their
measure of Home Rule. which ! sim
cerely hope. and indeed have every
reason to believe, will prove a genuine
| scheme of national self rovernrnept foy

all votes for city treasurer.
Great Improvements are now under
way at the Adams location. The OIL
yer Mining Co. has built twelve new
houses for its employees and is now
laying in a. water main to connect with
the city water works at the old well,
located in what is commonly known as
the Camps" Hydrants will be used
water will be placed in all the COM
pany houses next summer. 1t required
the digging Of a ditch nearly a quarter
of a mile to get the city water into
these houses. Poles have been placed
from the city limits to a point beyond
the Adams school for arc lights along
the county road, and this, like the wa.
ter connections, is greatly appreciated
by the residents of the location and
they sincerely hope that the placing Of
these lights will put stop to further
shooting along the road.
Michael Boylan. formerly of Eveleth.
was elected alderman at Virginia. Mr..
Boylan will represent the first ward.
He secured fine majority and will
make good alderman.
James P. Carey was elected Judge Of
the municipal court at Virginia. Mr..
Carey had only 3 votes to spare over
his opponent. Jim Carey formerly was
in partnership with Timothy Shea of
Eveleth in the livery business and is
at this time State Mining Inspector
for this district. He is we'll educated
and of a cool temperament, and will
surely make a just judge. The many
friends of Mike Boylan and j. P. Carey
in Eveleth wish them every success.

Richard Fitzgerald, steam shovel en-
gineer at the Fayal mine, carried off
the honors of champion steam shovel
engineer of the range. Engineer Brown
held this honor for two years. His
record was the loading Of 10 steel cars
of fifty tons capacity in ten hours.
Last week Mr.. Fitzgerald loaded 1888
steel cars Of ore in little more than
hours, but honors didn't stop here for
: Dick" When he arrived home his
wife presented him with a chubby little
daughter weighing 111a pounds. Mr..
Fitzgerald is treating his friends the
past few days in honor of both events.
Checks are all the rage on the range
like other places, but there is quite a
number of us who would consider a
few Bryan dollars swell dish about
this time.
Eveleth seems to be as far away
from securing street railway as it
ever was. The council rejected the
bid of the Mesaba Traction Co. for a
20-year franchise. This company was
the only bidder and offered 500 for it's
privileges. Many are Of the opinion
that the franchise is worth more as
there is a good road bed on the main
street which has cost the taxpayers
thousands of dollars. Comparing the
outlay on the part of the people with
the generosity of the traction com.
pany, we would say that the 500
would be just enough to buy wrest.

The publisher of little paper called
1.-THE Bugle Blast" issued Il circular
last week which was addressed to all
decent papers asking them to denounce
the American Sunday combination of
literary dyspepsia and artistic lunacy
which is scattered everywhere, and
which is running the moral and artis-
tic sense of our people, says the Wicl-
ita Catholic Advance. The editors and
publishers of this mass Of Sunday filth
will supply the poison as long as there
are purchas sers for 1t. The only way
to put an end to the demoralizing
craze is to stop buying. Keep your
nickel in your pocket for SIX months
and we guarantee full stop to the
Sunday outrage. Everyone VINO buys
an objectionable Sunday paper be-
comes an alder and abettor OF crime.

cows will not stand to be MIXED unless
they are eating This is merely force
of habit and proves my idea as to reg
ularity. Regularity is the first and
most essential thing in caring for stock.
AS to grooming, 1t pays to do certain
amount of IT,
Dairy cows should be groomed each
day The amount of grooming may de-
pend somewhat on the amount OF time
the farmer can spare from his other
work, but no farmer can afford to
wholly neglect ii, no matter what his
other work. What is worth doing at all
is worth doing well. and 1t is not car
ing for stock well to neglect to give
them at least a slight brushing.
No great amount OF time need be
spent on them. A man who has never
done Ii will be surprised 10 see how
quickly he can go over lot or cows
with card and brush IL done each day
or what an Improvement il will be to
the stock both In looks and condition.
Two minutes each to lot OF cows
will prove beneficial IL the caretaker
can give them no more. Be regular
about feeding. watering. grooming and
milking. and your stock will look well
, even If you have other work TO de-
mand good part Of your time.
| But If one has the stock TO require
one man most OF the time TO care for
them Ii is better to have one man do
the work rather than have two or
three do the work up quickly and then
all go at something else. A regular
man In the barn, with perhaps some
help about the milking. is better than
two or three part of the time and then
no one In the barn through the day.
The illustration. from Kimbalrs

ORATORICAL CONTEST.

The tenth annual contest of the Michi-
gan Oratorical League was held at Hills
dale, Mich, Friday evening. March Ist.
Hillsdale College had made elaborate
plans for the entertainment of the con-
testants ahd their friends. and in spite of
the rainy weather nearly all of the col
leges were we'll represented.
After the chapel exercises Friday
morning the students of Hillsdale were
given some little time to practice their
songs and yells, which were used very
effectively that evening. All classes
were suspended in the afternoon to fur
Their insure the entertainment of the
visitors. Between the hours OF five and
six a reception was rendered the visitors
at President Mauck's home This re-
ception was very largely attended and
greatly enjoyed by all.
The contest began at 1880 i'll the college
church,; building we'll adapted to the
purpose. Though large building it was
we'll filled, the different colleges being
assigned sections by themselves. The
people were i'll their seats early, and
there was much good-natured yelling, i'll
which Hi, lsdale led. Large delegations
were present from Eope, Olivet, Albion
and other colleges. President J. y.
Mauck OF Hillsdale gave the address of
welcome and spoke very fittingly of the
gain derived from contests in oratory
The contestants with their subjects were
as follows: 1.-The Evolution of the Spirit
of Democracy" Albert Nohath OF Hills
dale; Marie Anoinette," John n. Van
Zanten of Hope; True Education, 4"
Education" Clarence ID. Holton of
Kalamazoo "As Thyself" W. +. Pifer

Tolls" Aubery Leonard Ashley of Olivet;
"The Man and the Hour" Floyd w.
Gray of Adrian; The Spirit OF Com-
mercialism," Kay Norton of Albion;
Samuel Milton JONES'" Francis w.
Cobb OF Alma.
Several musical numbers were rendered
by Hillsdale's Male Quartette during the
program. The judges, both of compost
ton and delivery, were T.. w. Chabb of
Athens. Ohio, Chas. A. Bowersox OF
Bryan, Ohio; Webster Cook of Saginaw
Mich. and DR. II. H. Belfeld of Chicago.
While awaiting the judges decision sew
eral more musical numbers were given,
with speeches by President Lancaster OF
Olivet College and DIR. Belfeld of Chicago.
The decision given awarded first place
to Albert Naleath of Hillsdale College,
second to Albion, third to Olivet, fourth
Michigan State Normal, fifth Kalamazoo,
sixth, Hope, seventh, Alma, eighth,
Adrian and ninth Michigan Agricultural
College.
Mr. Cobb for Alma did exceedingly
we'll and the college may we'll be proud
of him. The contest was perhaps the
closest in the history of the League, the
difference in the percentage of the con
testants being very slight. When the
decisions were announced pandemoniun
broke loose; Hillsdale's students wer,
present i'll force and the scene was Ger
tainly hilarious one, continuing far in
10 the morning hours.
Hillsdale is to be congratulated on he
excellent entertainment and management
the whole affair was a great success.
