and cried, Yer Honor" at every second word; and
how, in fact, they revealed by their outward bear
ing the knowledge that when they stood in the
presence of the landlord they were confronted by
the master of their life or death.
The despair of the impossible situation IN the
Ireland of forty fifty years ago was worse almost
than the SerVitude. There room left for
hope in a system which permitted The landlord to
rob the tenant of every addition the latter made
to the wealth of the soil; and there could be no
hope or prospect IN a system which kept the tenant
liable to eviction from his holding whenever the
landlord wished to do And now realize that on
half the soil of Ireland the people never see a land
lord a landlords representative; that every year
brings them nearer the time when they Will be the
absolute owners of their holdings; that they know
that their children will full possession and
complete ownership If they do not, and you can
understand what a strong tide of hope and eX-
ultation there be in the breasts of these people
have just been writing for another American
publication on my impressions of New York; and
have referred back the tremendous fever and
energy of life YOU find there to the extraordinary
conditions of American life-and of the conditions
l have singled out most import ant-the fact that
a vast boundlesS virgin land there sent from
all parts of the world the daring, enterprising
courageous and active minds; and that the COM
bination of two such factors accounted for the ex-
traordnary wealth and vitality of New York,
Some Striking Changes
A ND in the way what lies behind and inspires
~ all these movements IN Ireland of which
| have spoken Is the creation from day To day of
this new Ireland where free people till and own
their own land. The changes which this transfer
nation of ownership make are striking and Imme-
diate. l have had my dark and respondent hours
about the future of Ireland in twent y-seven years
OF checkered parliamentary career; but there IS
fact borne IN upon during the last few years
which IS a constant source of hope and encourage
That fact is that the Irish people are of
the most teachable races in the world.
One might we'll say himself that human nature
changes very slowly and very gradually; that the
Irish people having spent centuries IN slavery IN
poverty, and IN despair might also take centuries
before they realized the benetCent results of liberty.
These pessimstic views have been entirely dISspated

 KING

The Greater Birmingham bill has been subjected to both favorable and adverse comment, but Representative King is en- thusiastlc and confident that it will pass both the house and the senate at the split session of the legislature.
 For the benefit of those not familiar with the bill map has been made by The Age-Herald which is shown above. Rep resentative King yesterday explained in detail the nature and purpose of his bill, saying:
 The plan for creating the greater city is covered by three bills, the first a local bill, defining the boundary line of the greater city, and providing that 1t shall go into effect October l, 1909. The second bill is a general bill, taking care of the debts of the absorbed municipalities and trans ferring the title of the property to the greater city. The third bill is also a general bill and provides the scheme of government for the greater city.
 There are about one hundred and ten thousand people included within the limits of the greater city at this time, and we should have at least one hundred and twenty-five thousand by 1910, when the census is taken. We have twenty-five thousand more people in these limits now than Nashville and Atlanta each, had in 1900. So if these bills pass we will make Atlanta and Nashville look to their laures in the race for supremacy in the next cen sus.

The Mayor of Birmingham, together with the mayor of each municipality in the prescribed ter ritory on the first of October, 1909, will constitute a commission, whose duty it will be to divide the new territory into these eleven wards and when this is done, the City Council of Birmingham will elect two aldermen from each of these wards.
 '"The City Council will divide all of the greater city into police districts, and each town having four thousand population on the first day of October, 1S09 shall con- stitute a separate police district. The Mayor of that town will under the bill be made the police judge of that court, which will have the same jurisdiction over offences committed against the city as the present judge of the police court of Bir- mingham The people in each of these police districts will elect their police judges from their respective police dis tricts. The city attorney of each of these towns is made the assistant city attorney of the greater city, and he shall prosecute the cases on behalf of the city in the several police districts The salary of the police judge and the assistant city at torney shall be fixed by the City Council.
 Each police district shall also be a separate school district, and the greater city Is required to maintain suitable and commodlous public school building in said district, at which the children of the city are allowed to attend free of any tui- tion, and the greater city Is also required to maintain fire station in each separate police district.

Following his departure there were re- ports that he had retired from Wall street. When a message was sent to him by wireless inquiring if this were true he sent back the following reply:
 My health is good and do not propose to retire from business, but I have rid myself of responsibilities and details which made me a slave"
 Undoubtedly MT. Ryan is to be much less active in financial life than formerly He has gradually disposed of his enor- nous railroad and corporation holdings and with fortune of more than S1OOOOO, 900 has put aside business cares. It is
