" We propose te bring the aaine weight of

That Parliament baajuat paaeed resolution

11 Why did you select Lord LanaJewne
for attack T" asked the reporter.
"Lord Lansdowne waa the lint put forward
by the bankrupt rackrentera te terrorize the
people, because It I supposed that hlslm

"Uave you no leara el being mobbed In

I cinnet honeatly nay that 1 have any

" 'Pake my cw Hint you will get an Idtnt of
the Irish nllMinl war ter exlttenea. I bad a
farm or MO acres In (2'teeu county, near
Luggactirritu. Oi thi, .tee acret were peer,
being rusliy, ft waa all graw land and I
rained young cattle, selling them when they
were two years and a bait old. Ker thlt farm
I bad te ay every year i7t0 lis. Tlie gov
ernment valuxtieu wa only JLIJI. I have
net made the rent en the pi aw since 1879, and
there wai no way of helping mjlf.
" New, te understand the eavt, you must
unilerstaud that I was born en this farm and
my lather wa bem there, and my grand
father was Inrn there, aud my great grand
father came te It when hu was young. Yeu
can see hew 1 would feel about the place. I
bad seven families living lu celtagea' and in
summer had twenty men working. They
were all steady, Intelligent and Industrious
men, telling hard every day from 7 In the
morning until 0 at night. The result of all
tbla bird labor added te ray own bard work
and my capital did net produce enough te
ay the outrageous rent demanded by Lord
isnedewne.
THK KAHM WOULD NOT VIKLD HUNT.
I ralstd sheen, and the tluke disease
ruined my flecks, se that 1 bad te sell them
for almost nothing. I get another geed fleck,
and again the fluke appeared. There waa no
natural way of paying the rent The land
would net yield It Yet the money bad te
be raised. Ne mercy was ahewn. There baa
been no abatement In thejudlelal rent llzed
in 18H3, although Lord Cewper'a commission
has declared them te be rack rents. Mr.
Mabeny, who represent Meetu In the Heuse
of Commens, waa one of the persona who
fixed the rents. He baa recently written a
publle statement that they are rack rent
" All appeals te Lord Ltnsdewna were
met with a reply that be would de nothing.
II we did nut like it we could go Inte the
land courts. But 1 held my farm en lease
for twenty one year aud I could net get no
remedy In the land courts. All ever Lord
Lansdowne' estates the rent are enormously
high out of ail proportion te UrltUth'a valua
tion. Yeu will find that a farmer who belda
land right alongside of Lansdowne farm
will go into court and get reduction of from
Arty te seventy per cent In hla rent The
Lauadowne farmer will get reduction ei
fUteen or possibly twenty per cent
Well, there baa been naturally great
Buffering. Net long age General Buller
visited Kerry te put down moonlighting. Ha
could de nothing. Then Lord Lousdewne
reduced tba rents of bis Kerry tenants. It
was undoubtedly done te atop the moon
lighters Wa In Queen county demanded
the same reduction that bad been given te
the Kerry farmers. When we wrote te Lord
Lansdowne be answered us by saying that
Kerry waa a mountainous district and net
worth as much aa ears.
A STOUT RESISTANCE.
Finally, wa found that tba rint oeuld be
paid no longer, and we adopted tha national
plan of campaign by placing our money In
tba bands of tba national representatives,
Then ettna tba brutal work of eviction. On
March 22 of this year It began. Tba police,
armed with rlnea or batons, bad

net te deal with the ctreer of Lord Lans

free country, we cannot ex peat every body te

strength of Justice and truth upon our aide
that when all have beard our story, all will
be convinced, and that the Canadian people
wilt atretcb out their hand and save the
lives and properties of these MX) peer tenants
or Luggacurrae, for both are at tbla moment
at your mercy and In your bands." Mr.
O'Brien opened the campaign against Lord

We publish today Kan ter Iewls J.
Kmery's Interview en the corrupt defeat el
t e Bllltngsley pipe line bill, by the Repub
lican al area of the .Standard OH company.
Senater Emery's righteous indignation
comes late. The Democratic party has al
ways nobly defended the Interests of the oil
producers and the oil consumers, as It has the
Interests of all ether classes of people, against
the encroachments of grasping monopolies.
This wss wall known. It was particularly
well known te Senater Kmery, whose slly
the Demecrecy has alwayabeen,ln bis numer
ous able and Ueree tight In tbe legislature.
It baa supported all hi measures te curb
tbe gigantic monopolies, which were draw
ing tbe life bleed from bis people. Yet, last
year, when the Democracy put Its square square
teed, anti-monopoly ticket In tbe field, the
oil reglena net only let It go down before
the money and terrorism of the monopolies
that Is, tbe Standard oil and tbe railroads and
kindred Institution, but they contributed a
little mere than their usual share te that In
iquitous result They knew very well tbe
a and tbe Standard oil waa taking In that bat
a. Tney knew tbe bsnd Its agauta tried te
take at tbe Democratic state convention te
capture tbe Democratic party aud te ahspe
It ticket, alto, te eult tbe interest or tbe
corruptleotstA, and tbey knew that the failure
then te nominate servants of the monopolies
te lead tbe anti-monopoly party meant tbat
unlimited money, and every etber weapon at
the command et wealth and unjust business
privilege, would be employed te elect Beaver
and Davles, These means were used, especl
stly ameug them, and before their very eyes.
But wbst did tbey de ? They held out their
hsnds fur tbe fetters and stretched their lege
for the shackles. Kven Ktneryaud Lee and
tbe .rest ei the se-called Independents
alleged frlenda el free labor and free business
worked and voted for Beaver and mono
poly. They have get that ler which tbey
wrought. Tbey decreed their own slavery te
tbe rlugs and luonettoliea et tbe Republican
party, and If the Democrats or tbe
Senate were neabla te release them, they
hsve only themselves te thank for their
ahameful situation i situation as sbameful
te the whole state as it Is te them.
This Is tbe case with Mr. Kmery's nil bull bull
nees. Witb the people at large suffering
from infamous peels, and corruptdlscrlmlna cerruptdlscrlmlna corruptdlscrlmlna
llene,seoiet and open, by tbe carrying com
panies It is much tbe seine. Belief from
these admitted wrongs, wss vaguely and
reluctantly premised by Mr. (Jusy's conven
tion and by bla eandldstee en the stump.
They declared they would adapt tbe Cullem
bill te tbe elate and pas it- That bill waa
bad enough, te be sure, ter a state measure ;
but they hsve altered and emasculated even
that until It is no longer recegniMble hav
ing changed it In about aaventy one Impor
tant features and, after ail, the fling bosses
are still sitting upon it wltb an excellent
irespect of smothering it altogether. Such
s tbe superior value et tbe premises of rings
and monopolies te reform their own abuses I
But notwithstanding all this, It Is mere
tfcsn likely that Mr. Emery and bla followers
In tbe oil regions will be sgaln found next
fall contributing their money te buy up
votes for tbe monopoly party, provided tbe
railroads and the Standard oil leave them any
money te contribute. Tbey habitually howl
ever their Injuries through winter and spring,
but tbey regularly vote the ring ticket in
autumu. it must be considerable consola
tion te them tbat in this silly business et
ruining their own Interests tbey have a great
deal of geed company drawn from the etber
conspicuously oppressed classes of the state,
chlel of whom are the werklngmen and the
farmers t

In tbe tlsssl year of lSW there ware also
Issued 70.W7 supplemental certificates te
widows and dependent relstlves, whose
pensions bad been Increased by congreeelensl
enactment of March 10, 1890, showing a grand
teTsi rer mat one year or uo,em allowances.
Tbess supplsmentary certificates were Is
sued wltbin a very few mentba after tbe
passage of tbe law. At no time In the history
of the office baa aueb an enormous number of
pensions been "Increased" without interfer
ence with tbe regular work of tbe office or
without a call upon Congress for additional
help. Frem the 1st of July, 1886, up te and
Including lbs 3Mb of April, 1887, ten months
there were 74,608 eertlncatea Issued, of which
31,862 were original eases.
nEATINO TUB nBCOKD.
There are yet remaining two months of the
present fiscal year, and tbe result will be a
showing greater by far than any previous
year In tha history of tha office. This Im
mense amount of work has been perfermed
wltb a reduction of the clerical force of ever
one hundred, (leneral Black determined te
conduct the office upon strict business prin
ciples, end required that the entire time of
the clerical force during oBies hours should
be devoted te tbe consideration and transac
tion or tbe public business and Ibe settlement
of long delsyed pension claims. Aa one re
sult of this regulation the first year of hla
aaminiairaueu exntniiea a saving in
tbe matter of leaves of absence of 15,001
dsys of tbe aggregate time of the clerical
force, or 42 years, 11 months and 4 daya or the
time of a single clerk.
Hlnee the 17th of March, 18S5, when the
present commissioner assumed tbe duties of
his offlee, no leaves of absence have been
granted for political purposes and no pension
offlee clerks have gene off en "stumping
tours" as was formerly the custom. Frem
July 1, ISM, te June 30, 1885, the average
number el working days for tbecleneal force
was 268, while In tbe succeeding year the
average number et working dsys was28L
In tbe year 1886 tbe present commissioner
turned ever te tbe treasury ever f 100,000 et
unexpended appropriation en account of
clerical hire, and he effected a saving In tha
same year In tbe Item of stationary of ever
13,000-thls notwithstanding the fact tbat
tbe business of the bureau had been very
largely Increased.
ALL CA1ES KXAMIXKD.
It waa formerly tbe practice that when a
pension claim bad been neglected tbat la,
when tba claimant or bis attorney failed te
call up tbe case ler a certain length of time time
te mark the case abandoned" and consider
It In about tbe same light aa a rejected esse.
General Black abolished tbla practice, and
required or his chiefs or bureaus tbat all
claims should be given a chance or being con
atdered and finally adjudicated. Every case
tiled during bis administration baa re
ceived prompt attention. Hla order tbat
all eases tiled prier te bis entry into office
should be exsratned befere the first et June
has already been fully compiled witb, and
there la net a single case In tbe pending tiles
of the office which baa net been examined,
and in which steps have net been taken to
ward final settlement As a consequence of
tbe application of these practical business
principles in the management of tbe office,
the pension bureau, for tbe first time In Its
history, Is abreast of tbe original Invalid
claims tiled. Te Illustrate the enormous in
crease in tbe business of tbe pension bureau,
during the month of March, 1884, there were
received 159.3S5 pieces of msll mstter, and
there were eent out from its office 141,898 cir
culars and letters, while in tbe month of
Msrcb, 1887, there were received 287,2tVJ
pieces of mall matter, and there were sent
out from the office 188, 112 letters and circu

In the high license bill which passed both
branches or the stats legislature en Wednes
dsy, Senater Btebman la recorded In Its
favor and Senater My tin against it, en final
passage In the Senate. In the Heuse Rep.
ressnaUvas Baldwin, Kauttman and Peeples
were for it snd Davis, Smith and Kemper
against It
Ths previsions In whleh the people of this
vicinity are most interested are these of sec
tion 8, In which licenses are classified : In
elttes of tbe first, second and third classes,
1500 ; In ether cities, $100 ; in boroughs, 1200 ;
In townships, 1100. In cities or tbe first class
four-fifths ahall be paid for tha use et tbe
cltyand county and one fifth for tbe use el the
commonwealth; In cities of the second snd
third class thVee-filtbs sbsll tie paid for
tbe usa or tbe city, one-filth for tbe
use el tba proper county and one-fifth
for the use of tbe commonwealth ; In all
etber cities or boroughs three-fifths shall be
paid for tba use of sueh city or borough, one
fifth for the use of the proper county and one
firth for tbe use of tba commonwealth ; In
townships one-half shall be paid for the use
of tbe township, one-fourth for ths use of tbe
proper county and one-fourth for tbe use or
the commonwealth. Tbe sums paid te the
townships te be applied te keeping the reada
in geed repair.
The ninth section forfeits the license gran ted
if the license fee be net paid within fifteen
daya. Tbe tenth section fixes the bend st
2,000.
TUB EFFECT OF TIE MEASORB.
There are 305 licensed placss in Lancaster
county, of which 103 are In this city. Of the
108 In Lancaster, 12 are for liquor stores
wblcb de net come under tbe previsions et
tbe bill. There are, therefore, 93 publle
drinking places which have been paying
C50 a year and fees for the privi
lege of selling drinks. Under the pres
ent bill hotel keepers snd restaurateurs in
Lancaster wilt pay $100 and lees annually for
tbe privilege of selling. Of course, this
measure will wipe out a large number of tbla
city's drinking places. It Is safe te asy that
one-half of them will eventually be closed.
Estimating tbat there will be 50 remaining,
this will bring an annual Income of $20,000
out of the drink traffic of this elty. Under
tbe new act three-fifths et this or $12,000 will
go Inte tbe city treasury ; one-firth, or $4,000
Inte the county treasury, and tha ether filth,
$4,000, Inte tbe state treasury. Tbla Increased
amount In the city treasury will be very
valuable for municipal Improvements.
A well-known man about town says tbat
net mere than a deten et tbe present drink
dispensers will fell te take out their license
under the new regime. He predicts that the
landlords will bave te come down in their
rents proportionately with tbe increase et tha
license fee, else they will net be able te rent
tbelr places.
It the bill obtains tba governor's signature,
It will go Inte effect en June 30 of tbla year.
The licensee granted at the present time will
net be affected until the expiration of tbe
present grant
WHAT JAMES BLACK HAYS.
James Black stated te a representative el
the iNTKLLieEScen, tbat be- regarded the
high license law net as a measure in the In
terests of temperance, but aa a bill of lnlqul!
ties ; as an attempt te debauch tbe
publle conscience ; as a aubterfuge te
enable tbe Republican managers te appar
ently keep faith with the publle en
the temperance question ; the " submission"
act la all right enough as far aa It gees, but It
is of course net known whether it will ever
reach fruition. Tbe next legislature may be
bestile te it, aud then there is an end te it
Tbe high license law la utterly distasteful te
Prohibitionist. It Is a mere revenue meas
ure and Prohibition)! are en principle op.
peed te tbe collection ei revenue
for any purpose from aales en
Intoxicating liquors. Wherever high
license bas been tried, it has proved a fail
ure. It is wrong in principle and unwise In
policy. Mr. Black did net believe the high
license law would materially lessen the num
ber el drinking places, and certainly would
net decrease the amount of drinking. Pro Pre Pro
blbltlenista, while insisting en entire prohi
bition, were willing te accept any measures
tbat would bave a repressive effect en the
sale of Intoxicants, such as local option, or
tbe limiting of the number of licenses te a
certain prescribed population. But he oeuld
aee no possible restriction of tbe liquor traffic
that could result from the present blgb
license law. If It bad any effect at all It
would be te concentrate tbe aale of beer and
whisky in tbe hands of a smaller number of
monopolists than new deal In It
WHAT SAt.OON-KEErKriS SAY.
Seme of tbe principal saloon-keepers, en
being Interviewed, said tbey were opposed
te the law, net because el the increase or tbe
license, but because tbe law Is unjust te all J
small dealers, as there will be no difference
between taverns and saloons under tbe new
law, and tbe saloon may sell spirituous
liquors, tbls privilege msy enable them te
Increase their aales enough te pay tbe
high license without less; but there
are very few places where the beer
and liquor business can be run suc
cessfully conjointly. The best beer saloons
in tbls city, aa well aa elsewhere, sell no
spirituous liquors ; the two brancbes of busi
ness de net run smoothly tezether. Oa be
ing asked whether tbe saloon-keepers would
prosecute the unlicensed dives" a promi
nent saloon-keeper said "certainty net;
there Is law enough without the
high license law te close tbeae places ; the
polies knew all about them ; and If these
ministers or tbe law decline te become In
formers se will tbe saloon-keepers. They are
tolerated new under the eyes or everybody,
and they will be tolerated under tbe high
license law."
