THE IRISH
American Delegates Hold the Balance
of Power.

of Power.
Dublin, April 20.-From every
land where the memory of the Elmer
aid Isle is kept green, loyal sons
of the old sod have come to take part
in the deliberations of the Irish
Party's international conference,
which will open tomorrow. The
meeting will be the most important
in the history of the party, since the
delegates will be called upon to de.
eide between the policies of concili-
alton or continued warfare with
Great Britain. In settling this mo-
mentous question, it is generally adj
mitted that the delegates from
America will cast the deciding votes,
and all eyes are on the men who
represent the 1rishmen of Uncle
Sans land in the conference.
If the four American delegates,
James O'Callaghan, of Boston, Mich
ael j. Ryan, Of Philadelphia; James
Fitzpatrick, of New York, and John
Finnerty, Of Chicago, decide for
Cancellation, nothing can prevent the
beginning of a new era in Irish poll
tics, the acceptance of half home rule
as better than no home rule at all.
Should the Americans declare for
war the extremist wing of the ma
tionalists will continue to wage their
campaign in the House of Commons
with greater vigor than ever. In the
meantime the rival factions have
agreed to a temporary peace.
Tomorrow's convention will be of
| historical interest. Both sides are
| prepared for a hard contest. John
| Redmond, the home rule or nothing
leader, is battling for his political
life. If he is overthrow William
| O'Brien will succeed him.
What the Americans attitude will
be no n knows. Perhaps they will
make the situation even more con-
fusing than now by showing sym
pathy with the Sim Fein movement
in favor of abandoning parliamentary
agitation and Withdrawing the Irish
representation from the House OF
Commons.
The Sim Feiners are not to be ad.
mitted to the convention at all, and
if rumors that their views are being
favorably accepted in the United
States prove true, a three-cornerec
fight may follow, which will tear the
irish party to pieces.
Without American support the
Redmonites cannot continue theil
campaign. America practically sup
ports the parliamentary party. Thu
O'Brienites can do without financia
aid from abroad, several rich Irish
men being included in their member
ship-among them Lord Dunraven
Lord Castletown and Lord Limerick
Without Americas moral supper
however, they cannot do anything
the Americans having behind then
all the Irish parties in the Britisl
colonies. "he latter will unques
tionably follow American lead ii
the coming convention.

Here's a Newspaper Hustler.

T. B. Hitch, of the Keystone Record.
er, was in town Monday for short
time. Mr.. Hitch was former Hot
Springs printer, in 1892, and he has
seen much of the world since then.
having been engaged large portion of
the time in theatrical work. He sees
great and substantial improvements in
Hot Springs and thinks the Black
Hills about the best part of the uni
verse. He is showing it too, for be-
sides owing the Keystone Recorder he
has recently started a new paper, called
the "Star," at Hill City, and now is
adding to his string by the purchase of
the Buffalo Gap Republican of Mr..
Ballou, taking possession this week.
We understand that he will also
start paper at Oelrichs-to catch the
final proof business of that locality.
Mr., Hitch still feels that he hasn't
enough business to keep him busy and
has combined with o. R. Gard of this
place in the organization of a theatric-
al company, called the glitch. Gard
Stock Company" and about November
first they will put f1rst.vlass dramatic
company on the road. Nobody but q
hustler would buckle up against four
newspapers and q theatrical troup.
May success attend the whole aggregs-
tion.

Mail Your Letters Early.

Unless people desist from mailing
so many letters on the outgoing trains
at night the postal authorities are
likely to take away that privilege
altogether. The large number thus
mailed have become such burden
upon the postal clerks on the main
line trains that they have made com
plant and the question of remedying
the matter is haine considered by the
postal authorities. People should try
and get their mail in the postoffice be.
fore eight O'Clock or in the Minnekahta
corner box by $50 p. m. instead OF
waiting and depositing it on the train.
The authorities do not object to people
occasionally dropping letters on the
train but to make business Of it and
have them mailed in large numbers is
what they object to, and what they
propose to stop. It would be unfortun-
ate not to be able to place mail on the
train at the last moment at times, when
too late to mail otherwise, and our
people should cooperate in trying to
avoid discontinuance of it.
