FREELAND, PA., MARCH 12, 181 PRESIDENT IA I. POSSIIIII. II'I ICS. Every Thursday for the next three months the TRIBUNE will publish two portraits—one of a prominent Democrat, the other of a prominent Republican— under the head of "Presidential Possi bilities." Every reader recognizes tin uncertainty of politics, and in tiie two great parties of the United State,, there is today more uncertainty than lias ever preceded two presidential nominations. Our list comprises all the leaders on botli sides, and the portraits of those men will prove an entertaining addition to the TRIBUNE'S columns. A Political Film Flamiiier. The New York World is quite a cun ning political weathercock. It was quite friendly to Tammany when Tammany was in unbroken possession of power in New York. It became the most desper ate foe of Tammany when tlie wind seemed to indicate the overthrow of that organization. Now when Tamuinnv seems sure to come hack to power in New York city the World becomes quite friendly to the Tigor once more. It was the loudest shunter for Cleveland when he was riding at the* crest of a of a wave of popularity, hut as soon as it became manifest that Cleveland was becoming unpopular, tin' World from being his most subservient fol lower becomes his loudest-mouthed enemy. When Reed. McKiniey and a high tariff wero threatened with a revulsion of popular feeling the World couldn't accuse Reed. McKiniey and protection of crimes enough. Rut now that Hood. McKiniey and protection seem to he on the tide of popularity once more the World lias nothing but soft words for them. When ex-Senator Piatt scorned in danger of losing leadership in New York the World was ready to charge him with almost any kind of offenses. Rut when Piatt gains undisputed lead ership and solid political power then the World begins to cringe and resort to mild and gentle phrases. In fact the sudden retreats of tie World raminds one of guerilla, not to say to bandit warfare. The World only a few months ago was great for "tariff reform" and one-legged "fre trade," as long as thoy seemed popular. Rut "tariff reform" seems to have been left helpless to he slaughtered by it by its enemies so far us any assistance from the World is concerned. The World should, in the vernacular of the street, "take a tumble to itself," and if it is to pose as a great newspaper take some definite stand on some one political question at least. The Champion Free I'lifV Seeker. Nowspapers have some queer requests made upon them for space to boom other people's goods free of charge, but the palm must be to the Phila delphia Press for giving the liucst exhi bition of unadulterated gall ever soon in this office. Once a week regularly, since the first of the year, the TKIIII NK has received a reading notice from the Press, booming the Sunday edition, with a request that the same be inserted as a "matter of news." and thereby we "will confer a favor." The notices are pure advertising, and vary from $2 to s•"> in value, according to their length, yet this great daily has the insolence to ask country news papers to publish its ads week after week free of charge. The Press is an enterprising paper, but if it desires space in these columns the cash must be planked down. Free; puffs are out of date. Advertlfle Your llargaiufl. "Money is tight" is an expression used commonly by our business men at pres ent. It is truo; nevertheless some goods must be bought, and as there is still a little money in circulation, the up-to date merchant knows how to get his share of what is going. He advertises iiis bargains, and in times like these people watch for bargains; consequently the man who has them and announces so in the local papers gets the bulk of the trade in ids line of business.

In point of fact, he is personally sodden, impudent and in tolerable; while, taken in the aggre gate, he presents a really serious prob lem. Prof. MeCook, who lias made u thorough study of the matter, says tluu there are about 46,000 tramps now in this country, and that the number is constantly increasing. To support this horde of vagabonds costs the coun try something like $s f OOO,OOO a year. Indirectly they probably cause the loss of a still larger amount. Worse than this, they form a peripatetic school of vice and idleness. The real tramp is easily to be distinguished from "the unemployed man. lie is not east down or despondent. lie does not want to rise in the world; he lias found his real level in the gutter, lie desires only to rat, to drink—to be drunk, perhaps, would be the more accurate phrase— and to be let alone. When lie fails to satisfy his wants, he becomes a dan gerous criminal. In Indiana last spring tramps took actual possession of an entire village and drove its inhabitants to the woods. It is time to look at this subject seriously. The tramp is a pub lie enemy. IN the list of successful bidders fo. the new bonds which appeared in the newspapers tlie other morning is the name of an errand-boy in a New York banking house, who is allotted $l5O, 000. lie is a v € ry smart young chop, says tlm Washington correspondent of she Chicago Record, and only 13 years old. Hearing the continual talk about the bond-letting among the customeis of liis employer's office lie concluded that lie would take a little whirl him self, so he sat down and wrote a bid for $150,000 worth at a price that turns out to be the merest trifle above the bid of the Morgan syndicate. When h? saw his name on the list, of successful bidders he was badly frightened and told his employer of his predicament. *1 he latter patted the hoy on the head, called him Jay Gould and agreed to furnish the money to pay for tlieni oi joint account and divide the profits.

JIEUE in America, as in every other civilized country, the authorities offer a pecuniary reward for the finding and the recovery of a drowned person, a corpse being, therefore, of greater financial vaWie to boatmen than a res cue. The French government lias novv inaugurated a scheme of providing monetary rewards for 1 lie saving of people from drowning, and the inno vation is one which merits the consid eration of our authorities here, since to a man who lias a starving faiuiiy at home the temptation to allow a per ■>on to drown for the sake of securing the reward granted for the finding of a corpse is so great that it may prove in some cases beyond the power ot re sistance A it IN AWAY couple were married on i railway train near Slielbyville, Ind., a few days ago.

THE IKISII IN GOTHAM Thoy Are a Power in Political and Religious Life. Anil, Take Them All In All, They Const:- tuto One of the Most Valuulile Ele ments of the Great Eastern City's Polyglot Population. ISpecial New York Letter.l An astonish in gly large proportion of the inhabitants of New York city are either Irish by birth or by descent. When a certain son of the Emerald Isle was asked what his name was he promptly replied: "Faith and can't yez sec in the dirictory?" lie was right in the supposition that, his name being Iriph, it could be found in that great work. I never realized this fact until I happened one day, while in a drug store, to turn over the pages of the bulky volume. There are thousands and tens of thou sands of "O's" and "Macs." There are about fifty pages of Murphys, and al most as many Sullivans, Raffertys, Mulcahys, Muldoons and similar Celtic cognomens. Wliilo looking over the MR. COCKRAN GLORIFIES GOTHAM. family names of the mixed population of Manhattan islund I was struck by the fact that, although the Dutch were the original European settlers, their descendants have been completely over whelmed and snowed under, so to speak, by other nationalities. Not only in the directory, but also in public life, generally the Vans are far from con- spicuous by their numbers, although some of the wealthiest fa'inilies indicate by their names their old Knickerbocker lineage. That distinguished New York poli tician and congressman, W. Bourkc Coelcran, in an after-dinner speech made on last St. Patrick's day before a brilliant assemblage, said, with a glow of enthusiasm: "New York is the great est Catholic city in the world, and she is the greatest Irfth city as well." Anybody who has an opportunity to witness the gigantic St. Patrick's day celebration in New York is prepared to believe that Mr. Cockran was not in dulging in a flight of fancy. Occasion ally I take a walk on Sunday mornings, and have been astounded at the throngs of worshipers that pour out of the Catholic churches, and their almost ex clusively Celtic type of features. TJie only other race that rivals the Irish in its attendance at religious service is the Hebrew. Church going is certainly on the wane among the Protestants, and in some of the most imposing fashionable churches a worshiper has as much room, so to speak, as a blackbird in a forty-acre field, while Catholic churches and the synagogues are almost as badly congested as the elevated trains during the "rush" hours. On St. Patrick's day the green flag, while it has no bona fide existence as a national emblem, is visible everywhere. It appears in the windows of the shops and dwellings, on the passing vehicles and 011 the breasts of Ireland's stalwart sons and daughters; hut this year, for the first time in many years, it will no longer flutter from the flagstaff of the city hall, for the assembly has decreed that only tho American flag is to be displayed on public buildings. There is no occasion when Irish wit is not equal to the emergency, but on St. Patrick's day it bubbles forth on the slightest provocation. It is on this day that a milkman, who happened not to be Irish, said to Bridget as she appeared with a pi teller, and a bow of green rib bon on her bosom; "If you are* not careful, Bridget, some donkey will be biting at you, you're so green." "Thin, Oi had better be gittiu' back into the house," replied Bridget, as she hurried away. The Irishman, even in the third and fourth generation, does not forgot "old Ireland," and unless the British gov ernment can discover some way of loclc ing up Irish patriotism with Irish patriots, sooner or later the real griev ances of that gifted people will be num bered among the thingsof the past; but un oppressed people must liberate themselves. It can never be accom plished by the efforts of outsiders. Whatever advantages tho Irish have wrested from their masters has been due to the persistence of the former— not tho informer, of course. As an Irish orator in the house of commons once stated the case: "As long as Ire land was silent under wrongs Kuglan' was deaf to her cries." Tho New York Irishman not only contributes liberally to assist his friends nt, home to carry on the political fight, but, no matter how humble his lot, he never neglects his destitute relatives across the water. The aggregate amount of money sent to private par ties in Ireland from their more pros perous relatives in this city is simply astounding. As it has been wittily ex pressed: "The real Irish question is: 'Has the registered letter mail come in from America?'" In no other city in the world does St. Patrick receive such un ovation, as it were, as he does in New York. In fact, there are not a few with whom getting ready for St. Patrick's day is more pleasant than getting over the effects of it, which suggests a conver sation I once overheard between a na tive American, who was skeptical as to St. Patrick's eradication of snalces, and a Hibernian, who was slightly under PRESIDENTIAL POSSIBILITIES.

"Do you really believe, as a sensible and reasonable man, that St. Patrick actually drove the snakes out of Ire laud?" asked the incredulous one. "Indade, I do, sor," was the emphatic reply. "Now, just look at it for a moment, and you can't help seeing the utter ab surdity of such a thing. If St. Patrick drove out all those suakes, where did he drive them to?" "Bcdad, it's mesilf that's thinkin' he drove them into the whusky." As for Patrick himself, there is no other historical personage whose mem ory is so profusely honored excepting, of course, the founder of the Christian religion. And what is still more sin gular is the fact that almost nothing is really known of his life and antece dents. As a priest onee candidly ad mitted: "Very little is really known about Ireland's patron saint, and that little is very uncertain." According to the statements of con flicting historians, he was born in Eng land, Scotland, Wales, Franco and other countries at different dates from A. D. 372 to A. D. 389, and his death oc curred in any and all of the years be tween 401 and 4SB. There is, however, no doubt, after the clustersof luxuriant Action are removed, that he was an car nest, plain preacher of the Gospel, with considerable administrative ability in the establishment of congregations and churches, and much homely eloquence, with which he brought the doctrines of primitive Christianity within the very limited range of his hearers' compre hension. No other race has so many lights and shadows, but the former are much morq numerous than the latter. Physical courage, amounting even to reckless ness, is as inherent a trait as ready wit, in which respect they excel every NOT AS GREEN A8 81IE LOOKED. other race. There is more genuine wit and repartee In the banter of half dozen Irish street cleaners than in b dozen bound volumes of London Punch. Ily the way, I did stumble across a real joke in that venerable collection o: kiln-dried puns and aged chestnuts. How it escaped the editor's blue pencil remains an unsolved mystery. The picture represented a couple of typi cal Irishmen armed with blunderbusses. Tlioy are standing behind a stone wall, and are patiently waiting for the land lord to pass. One of them, with a trace of sadness in his face, says: •'Sure, Denis, the landlord's late this morning." "Oi hope nothing has happened to him," replies the other, squinting along the barrel of his gun. But to resume—in New York even the superficial observer can perceive the great capabilities of the Irish in every field of industry. As business men, bankers, politicians, actors, po ets, writers, tlioy more than hold their own. While they lack tho thorough ness of tho German in mastering the details of a profession or business, tliey more than make up for it by their superabundant energy and aggressiveness. Not even the typical Yankee surpasses them in this re spect. On the other hand, their gen erosity amounts to actual improvi dence, as far as the humbler class is concerned, in which respect they are the opposite of the thrifty Germans, who have more money in the savings banks than all the other nationalities put together. The natural-born love of the Irish for political life and their facility for organization have, until recently, given them absolute control of the mu nicipal government of this city, and I believe a similar state of things pre vails in every city where tlioy have any great numerical strength. The re ported remark of tho Chinese min ister in a conversation in regard to the hostility of tho Irish against tho Chinese was very much to the point. His suggestion was to the effect that tho Chinese should settle in Ireland, as that was the only country where tho Irish did not have unything to say. One secret of the success of the Irish in political life is that they honor and In This Space Will Appear Next Thursday and Every Thursday Thereafter for Three Months a Portrait of A PROMINENT REPUBLICAN. &UM2K up ineir leaders, utner nvpnen ated Americans, on the other hand, have no such feeling, and consequently their political influence, as far as hold ing office is concerned, amounts to verj 'ittle.
