ernment If 1t should prove a success 1t would be held that enough had al- ready been done for Ireland. In any event it would breed Irish divisions, and Irish amity is all-important in the long struggle for home rule. So 1t was rejected in the nationalist convention that met in Dublin. It displeases the tories, and it does not satisfy the nationalists. It, therefore, has no po- lltical right to live. and it will prob ably be withdrawn.
 The Irish people want no compro- mise. They will stand firm until time forces public opinion to do them jus tice. They propose to remain united, and this no doubt is the bottom reason of the rejection by the nationalist con vention of the Birrell bill which offers the Irish people good deal, but yet not quite enough to give them popular power and responsibility In their own domestic affairs.

Cotton Manufacturing South

Tn discussing the rise of South Caro- lima to second place in cotton manu- featuring in this country the Provi- dence Journal frankly admits that "in the sphere of coarse goods the south ern manufacturers advantages for making and marketing staples are proved by experience to be all that was prophesied for them when the pur- pose to build mills by the side of the cotton plantations was fulfilled" To day South Carolina has more than eighty millions invested In her mills, which produce upward of fifty million dollars worth of cotton goods yearly. North Carolina and Georgia are doing almost as well, and Alabama should be, but is not, a good fourth.
 "The cotton mills" says the Journal, find their raw material at their doors. Help Is cheap, if not always so plenti- ful as is required. Water power is bundant, and abundance will be per manently assured when Congress sets apart the Appalachian forests, that lie at the intersection of five states, as national reserve. The railroads that carry the south's cotton bales to the northern mills are now available for shipping the south's manufactured goods to the northern ports to be loaded for the cheaper foreign trade. For 1t is curious feature of the sell ing and distribution of these goods made in the south that there is little market for them at home, even among the negroes and poor whites. Seventy five per cent of the output is exported to China, Arabia or South America"
 The Journal should not expect to overload the south, where the sun shines hot, with clothes. It consumes coarse cottons of home production to he extent of its needs and then it sells the rest. It does not, in other words, order coarse cottons from Fall River or Lowell or Manchester. That would be feeding the railroads beyond all reason.

INDICT SCHMITZ ON
 SIXTEEN CHARGES

San Francisco. May 24.-The grand jury this evening returned bribery indictments as follows:
 Against President Patrick Calhoun of the United Railways, fourteen; against Assistant Thornwell Mullally, fourteen; against Attorneys Fiery, L. Ford, and W. M. Abbott, of the legal department, fourteen each: against Mayor Eugene Schmitz, sixteen; against Abraham Ruef, fourteen; against President Louis Glass of the Pacific State Telephone and Tele- graph company, two; against Theodore V. Halsey, one.
 Ruef schmitz, Calhoun. Mullally, Ford and Abbott are charged with bribing fourteen supervisors to grant an overc head trolley franchise to the United Rail- roads. Schmitz Is further charged with bribery in connection with the fixing of the gas company's rate, and with receiv- ing 5000 in the United Railroads franchise deal.
 The indictments against Glass are ad- ditional to the eleven Inducements already rendered against him. The indictment against Halsey is for the same offense.
 Superior Judge Coffey fixed ball In the sum of $10G00 on each of the charges and gave the accusd until Il a. m, to- morrow to furnish bonds.
 Six of the twelve jurors, who will try Mayor Eugene Schmitz, on the charge of extorting money from keepers of French rstaurants, have been finally selected and sworn and the prospect is that the jury will be completed next week.

SINGULAR SPECTACLE.

troH rne flttSDurg PoSt.
 At the instance of leading New York publisher, party of wealthy Americans are about to visit Italy for the purpose of Investigating the natural resources of that country with a view to engaging in their development. Should they undertake this enterprise 1t will afford rather singular spectacle. Italy was the seat of the old Roman civilization, the center for long period from which was lis seminated the knowledge of the arts and industries. That its own resources should have been thoroughly exploited and de- veloped would seem to be probable.
 We have now, however. citizens of the youngest of the great nations whose ex- istence as such is but small fraction ot that of Rome, who have made their money by the rapid development of the resources of their own country, thinking about developing those Of the country which dominated the civilized world two thousand years ago. It may oocrr to many that these Americans can find plenty of use for their money in develop ing the resources of their own country but perhaps. like too many of our rich people, they prefer that which is made abroad.
