Townsend as Auditor. This will be recognized as an ex ceptionally strong organization and as soon as the new owners become entirely familiar with the possibili ties and the needs of the road it is believed that measures will be taken for its development that it will be of very great advantage to the in terests of the country through which it runs. We believe that, in the near future through trains will he run be tween \\ ilkesbarre and Williamsport over this line under such arrange ments as will harmonize with all the connecting lines anrt secure to all our manufacturers all the advantages of all the different roads with which it will conuect, It has always been the policy of the management to secure the good will of their con nections and in this particular di rection there will be a widening out on the same lines that will foster all the industries along the W. & N. B. We wish the new owners and the old management all possible success.— Mail. With this new organization com prised chiefly of Williamsport part ies, who are financially interested in the progress of the Lake Mokoma property—cur people can positively hope for the completion of said rail road to this place during the coming summer. Tho following article, is what a correspondent to the Bulletin , has to say about the feeling existing be tweeu Ireland and England It in a true statement and each and evory Irish voter in Sullivan county should read it with interest. THE IRISH AMERICAN VOTER"* Nome Very l'lniu Fact* Given In Relation to Their Position With England. To THE EDITOR : While Mr. M. J. Costello is so ably handling the Egan question and giving the true reason for Democratic dislike of our Chilean Minister, I wish to express my surprise that any true born Irishman, having the interest of his rr.ee at heart, especially the laboring portion of his people now residing in this country, can concientiously vote the Democratic ticket, except in cases of local elections', when tis but to vote for the best men offered in nomination, regardless of party creeds. I can understand why a man of any nationality, out side of the Irish race, may follow the teach ings of Democracy, for like as in re ligious creeds, young men generally adopt the creed of their father, whether it be political or of a re ligious nature. But now we have all Ireland justly asking the sympathy of tbe whole world, in the great struggle to throw off the yoke which England with her grasping prospensities has fastened about the necks of the Irish people. They are doing all that a down trodden and desperate people can do, to free themselves from England's iron heel. Therefore the Irish people cannot have any par ticular love for that portion of the English race who are interested in England and her institutions in general. During the hent of the last Presi dential campaign, when the Republi cans were charging the Democrats with being the medium through which Great Britin was doing her utmost to establish free trade in this country, that she might fatten herself at the expense of American industries. Cleveland and all the Democratic papers denied tho fact in the strongest language at their commaod. But when the cute California Republican wrote the English Minister, Mr. Sackville West, asking which of the two can didates, Harrison or Cleveland, would be best to be elected for the interest of England—Mr. West, sup posing lie was talking to a friend of England's interest—at once answer ed that Cleveland was undoubtedly the best man for English interests. The letter was at once made public and the effect upon Cleveland's chances of election became apparent to the Democratic leaders. Grover lost his temper and asked England to recall their minister at once ; not because West had spoken well of Cleveland, but. because by his speak ing honestly to his supposed friend, he had let the cat out of the bag which made it useless for the Demo crats to try to hide the facts any longer. This incident alone opened the eyes of scores of Irish voters in this country, and many to my knowledge voted for Harrison at that time, who would have voted for Cleveland, but for the incident above mentioned. Now there is no denying the fact that all there is of the free trade element in this country is harbored by a portion of the Democratic party. This part is purely English. Were it not, for England not a word of it would be heard in this country to day. This being true, all England is watching every op ortunity to spring free trade on thi.» country, if she can, and all Englishmen not in terested in manufactures in this country look to the Democratic party to help them establish their pet scheme here. And, it has been the custom, as far back as I can re member, for all of Ireland's sons to vote the Democratic ticket as fast as they landed on American soil and received their papers giving theui the right to vote, and, until the Sackville-West incident struck the country in such a sensational man ner, the bolts from the Democratic party by the Irish people were few, but owing to the quick witted race who are never slow to see a point presented as plainly as in the in cidont above mentioned. The Irish people now see for the first time that while they have escaped the tyrant's yoke by emigrating to this country, yet up to date England has given them a razor with which to cut their own throats, by working through the Democratic party which she saw the Irish had adopted as their political creed. Therefore we see England and Ireland with clinched fists draw at each other at home, but in America, both voting the same ticket, which means, ire land playing into tho hands of her bitterest enemy. But, thank Ileaveu, they now begin to see where they stand, hence the new Irish Republican organization which seems to be increasing its numbers rapidly, and if Irishmen consult their personal interests and did what is best; political for themselves in this country, there would not be one Irish vote cast for a Democratic candidate for a leading office until the party h:*d by public outcry an nounccd to the world that they hi d once for all abandoned England'® f,'ee trade scheme and propos-ed hereafter to work for America and American interests- We are glad ti see the new and popular movement —it shows that our people are think ing for themselves.
