A COUNTRY WITHOUT CRIME.

That crime has decreased wonder
fully throughout ireland during tho
past year was amply illustrated at the
opening of the Irish Assize Courts
during the last month. 1t is remark
able tribute to the absence of crime
in the various districts visited BY the
judges, and the tributes Of the. Judges
to that fact was a striking REPUTATION
of the persistent calulnnies heaped
upon the Irish people, says The Cana
dian Freeman.
At the opening Of the Assizes for the
County Monaghan, for instance, one Of
the most Nationalist counties Of Ulster
Mr.. Justice Gibson was presented with
a pair of white gloves" there being
no criminal cases. In County Cavan
which is also overwhelmingly Nation-
alist, Lord Justice Holmes said the
business would be light and short, as
the cases were trivial. At the County
Waterford Assizes the Lord Chief JUS
tice. Lord O'Brien, stated there was
only one bill to 60 before; the Grand
Jury and that Ireland was imam un;-
doubtedly satisfactory state: The Lord
Chief Baron also narrowly missed a
pair of white gloves at Waterford
City Assizes, there being only ohs bin
to go before the Grand Jury. In open
ing the County Leitrim Assizes, Mr.
Justice Johnston said there were only
four cases for the whole Assizes. Mr..
Justice Kenny found only two Grim
inal cases, and commented that with
the exception Of one district this light
calendar was true reflection Of the
County. Then at Glare, on the other
hand, Justice Wright condemned the
use of firearms. Thus it is plainly ii
be seen that poor old Ireland Is not
the abode Of crime that the CLUB

press from time to time make it out to
be in their mischievous and lying mes

position from parliamentary represen-
tatives or ecclesiastical authorities In
the British Islands. we see no good
reason why they should not succeed
in their mission. It is said that there
are two rival A. o. HI. organizations
in ireland and that the American DEL
egates will use their best efforts to
unite them. The A. o. H. OF Ulster Of
which Mr.. Devlin, NJ. P, is president,
has recently been attacked by Timothy
Healy and William O'Brien; and Car
dinal Logue is not friendly with that
organization. We anticipate the an
tagonisn Of Mr.. Devlin to the Ameri-
can ENJOYS, because the United Irish
League. which he represented on his
visit to the United States, received no
encouragement from Mr.. Cummings
in his official capacity.
The Irish World of New York is Bit
terly hostile to Mr.. Cummings, and
devoted three columns Of it's valuable
space to his mission in last weeks is
sue. That paper yields powerful in.
fluence in ireland, and may make Mr..
Cummings mission more difficult Of
realization. The American who UNI
dertakes to reconcile conflicting fac
lions in Ireland has a. big job on his
hands. 1t is impossible to reconcile
them anywhere they exist. Mr. Cum
mings will be closely watched by the
British authorities, as they know he
is an advocate of physical force. He
has to be careful not to scare the Eng
fish too much over the alliance" be-
tween the Irish and Germans in the
United States. We wish him sue
cessful mission abroad and hope he
will be able to get the Irish imbued
with the principles Of American liber-
ty and independence. He is a man
of genial personality, who will make
friends everywhere among the Irish
people.

Richard Croker, ex-Tammany chief
tain, recently called at the White
House to pay his respects to President
Taft. Speaking of the tariff, he. said:
There never was any reason why the
tariff should be revised. The country
has prospered and has, made gigantic
strides under the present tariff law
and all this fddling with the sched-
ules merely serves to create unrest
and discomfort. What is tariff revis-
ion, anyhow? It is simply the SWITCH
ing Of taxes from one thing to anoth-
or, in which operation one fellow gets
hurt while the other benefits" From
the standpoint OF the politician, there
is some truth: in what Dick says; but
the people demand a revision Of the
schedules and the Republican party
is pledged to give it in extra session.

prejudiced, and bigoted. Men like
President Eliot are not entitled to any
place out of New England" Presi-
dent Eliot has since explained his ref
erence to the Irish and spoken Of them

his best to be liberal and that is all
that can be seriously expected from a

dispatch says:
1.-THE provincial councils Of the An
cient Order Of Hibernians Of Ulster,
Leinster and Connaught the repre-
sentatives of the Gaelic League of
Cork and Connaught, and others de-
livered addresses Of welcome, in which
the work Of the Hibernians of Ameri-
ca for the Catholic faith and the faith
erland were highly eulogized and the
hope expressed that the mission may
succeed in dissolving the dissensions
among the Irish at home. Both dele
gates replied to the addresses, Presi-
dent Cummings saying that the mis-
sion came in the interests of peace
and unity among the factions Of the
order. and advocated one grand plat
form on which Irishmen, north and
south, should unite to free the country
from slavery. He spoke at length on
the sufferings of the Irish under British
rule and said that if the Irish at home,
in Australia, in America and else
where united no power could resist
them to create that unity. The mis-
sion had started from the United
States, he concluded, with the prayers
OF millions Of Eibernians for success.
Addresses were presented to Presi-
dent Cummings and his party at Cork
Limerick and Maryborough,r on the
way to Dublin. Bands escorted the
visitors through the streets to the
rooms Of the Gaelic league, where Mr..
Cummings made another speech. He
said that 25,o00,00O Irish in America
were allied with the German race, ag-
gregating 81 per cent Of the population
who We're devoted to Irish interests.
England, he declared. was constantly
looking for an alliance and for arbi-
tration treaties"
