“Irish Grievances in a Nut shell.“ is
the title of an article in this issue by Mr.
Henry Aucketill, and we would specially
invite our readers to a careful pctlhul
of the comparisons given. The writer.
’who is himself heir to a large Irish pro-
perty. held in direct time by his family
for over 250 years. has had unusual
opportunities of studying this question.
and the facts as given by him acquire a
peculiar significance. It is for this rea-
son that we publish the article:

LIBERTY AND LAll'.

One of the good results of strikes and
boycotts is that consideration and d is-
cussion of the subject have been brought
before the people. Much ignorance has
been” removed, vague and ill defined
lieu have been cleared up. and the so-
phistries of professional labor agitators
have been shown up in their true light.
People now understand that boycotting
is not only an offense against the law,
buts wanton and cowardly invasion of
liberty by those who are most obligated
to respect and be grateful for the fire
dom this land gives them. As Judge
Barrett said when sentencing the con-
vioted boycotters to state prison, boy cott-
ing is tin-American and anti-American,
and is a breach of national hospitality
'by those whom this country welcomed
from oppression and to whom it offered
its free rights and privileges.

The moral offence of boycotters is as
great as their legal crime. They were
all foreigners; to escape the wrongs and
oppressions their native countries placed
upon them, they came to this land of

personal liberty,"'the_ refuge of the op‘
pressed; the blessings of free thought.
free speech. individual independence
fromrdictation of others. were freely be~

. stowed upotf them. They had scarcely
entered upon the enjoyment of these
rights when they began to basely misuse
them by interfering with the liberty of
others and threatening to destroy the
free institutions they came here to enjoy.
They call this a land of liberty. and then

- in the enjoyment of that liberty attempt
to take away the rights of citizens. Out
of American freedom they attempt to
make the rankest kind of personal tyran-
ny. Such an offense discloses a nature
much more depraved and despicable than
that of the ordinary criminal.

Another goodresult cf the conviction
of boycotters is the correction of people's
ideas of whatliberty means. Men who
come from lands where liberty is un-
known do not comprehend what Ameri~
can freedOm signifies. . Some appear to
think that liberty means license. that it
involves no responsibility nor account-
ably. that it is a sort of a go-as-you-
please; dooas-you-like principle. ’ They
want toset up their own will. against
the law. make their selfish interests and
the gratification of “their own missions

I paramount to all things else. and to
strike down the rights of all who oppose
their course. If theyhave a grievance,
vile tenures “seiner use "my

hands. If they cannot intimidate or

override him, they want to gratify their '

revenge against him by violating his
personal or property rights. Then. when
the law steps in and protects him by
committing them to prison. they and
their sympathizers count it tyranny.
These erroneous notions are being cor-
rected, and will ‘be fully corrected if it
requires. the conviction andr‘imprison.
ment of many more anarchists and boy-
cutters.

Argument with these classes is useless;
they will not be taught nor persuaded:
nothing'can be told them. Those who

"are now serving in state prison proposed
to run the industrial affairs of New
York according to their own plans-

_They were going to prescribe the limita-
tion of employers and say to them.
"Thus far shalt thou go, but no farther."
To the laborer they were going to say,
“You can work for a man if we say so,
but you must quit when we tell you. and
must not work for anybody else without
our consent." What a travesty on
American liberty! What an outrage on

, American freeman! It is one of the
glories of our law that it overthrows
such attempted tyranny and incarcerates
its perpetrators in prison cells. V" -
ous enforcement of the law teaches
lemons that argument and persuasion
are inadequate to teach. .
’ The boycott is not asolutiou of th
labor problem.

 

THE RISING . itMPERANC'E TIDE.

tion of Massachusetts, held in Boston on

question of constitutional prohibition

should be submitted to the people to be

voted upon at an early day. This re-
mark was received with the heartiest ap-

‘plause. as was also the prediction that if

it should be submittyj to the people it
would be adopted by a very large major-
ity. =

Mr. E. (3. Foster of Boston arose to re~

mark that if the Republican partv did

not give llie'peoplc of the state an op
portunity to vote upon the question of

constitutional prohibition they would

form a party that would give them a
chance to do so. .
The Convention adopted the following

resolutions:

Resolved, that in our
Republican party should declare itself
anew in uncompromising antagonism
to the saloon: that such legislation-should
be enacted as may be best adapted to nu
strict the liquorirnllic within the nar-
rowest possible limits: aud‘tbut. alike. in

the reforming and enforcing of the laws ’

bearing upon that question. lllt' end in

community from’tlie evils which flow
from the sale of intoxicating liquors.

Resolved. that we- urge upon Mussa~
chusetts Republicans the importance of
carrying this question into the various
caucusees and conventions of the party
with a view to securing the nomination
of candidates who are in full and sin—
cere sympathy with these principles. 7

Resolved. that the chair is authorized
and instructed to appoint. an executive
committee of 15 members. the duty of
which shall be to present these rcsolu~
tions to the next Republican state conven-
tion. and said committee is‘hereby \in-
structed to appoint delegates to represent
Massachusetts at the national conference
of anti~saloon Republicans called to meet
in Chicago.

It is absolutely impossible in a short

sive reform embraced by the principle of
Home Government. I have been fre

reland‘s grievanceswhich would Atake
several hours to answer in an explanatory
and ’satisfactory manner. and short of
delivering e’xtemporary lectures private-
ly or publicly. I know of no way of
lucidly giving a general idea of the sub-
Ject better than drawing public atteh-
tion to the following brief comparison of
the condition of the slows of rimitive
European civilization. as iven y Adam
Smith in his “Wealth of ations.“ with
that of modern Irish tenant farmer free.
"ion. The eleven points mentioned by
Adam Smith, for the convenience of the
reads-nave printed first in small type and
numbered: the present position of the
Irish tenant farmer freeman follows be-
neath each number respectively in larger
type. ‘
1. The occupiers were all or nearly all slaves.
Irish tenants were recognized free-
men, but it will be seen by comparison
that they were in a worse condition
than the slaves of primitive European
civilisation.
2. The slaves were all tenants at will.
Prior to 1870 this was also the case
in Ireland, save where leases were
ted. But a lease was only a gree-
y trick of the landlord to procure
some ulterior advantagemlways’ grant-
ed at a high figure, given to insure
golitical ascendancy, or as a matter of
nancisl expediency to meet his ex-

-

travagsnces, and accepted ‘by the

unfortunate tenant as adear. though

term of years agreed upon.

but fire church would soon become

The reply to this was "We regri‘l
that we cannot. Our debt stares us in
the face. Tell Mr. Hendricks that We
can do nothing.“

This was followed by a letter saving:
“The work at (ioodleltsville is still ,irom-
ising! Mr. Hendricks is going nn .rals.
ing funds to build. I think that be will
succeed. lie )needs some encourage .
ment from the‘American Missionarv .-\s~
sociation. Will you not give it?“ ~

The answer was: “We are in heavy
sympathy with the effort which is being
made at lioodlettsville: but if it “‘t'l‘t‘
twice as hopeful as it is, it would be
simply impossible for us to arsume any
more financial burden now.“

The response‘to this letter was: “Your
letter is received. It is not satisfactorv.
May not the brethren hope for an up.
propriation to assist them to build? They
are anxious to begin. and we ought to be
able to give them a definite answer.“

The definite answer was: “\Vc do not
think we can makera letter which will
be satisfactory. “'6: hope that this time
we make ourselves' intelligible! If the
church at tioodlettsvillc is to depend up in
us for help. we cannot at present encour-
age its organization. “"e cannot make
an appropriation to build the church; it
would simply be impossible when we are
so seriously looking retrenchment iu the
face. \Ve can offer no encouragement
of any kind.“

The reply to this is: “Mr. Hendricks
thinks that the matter has gone too far
to be given up. He insists upon going
on with the organization. and is cucu-
lating a subscription paper for funds to
build. He hopes to be able to present
the case to you so that you will see it
to be best to do something for them in
the way of building."

An official visit to Fisk University was
the next chapter in the stor . I had no
sooner arrivedto admire t e beautiful
situation. and to have my heart stirred
within me when Your the great work of
this college for colored people, than
there appeared before me, like an appar-
ition. the form of a- man who was intro-
duced as “Mr. Hendrick." His first sew
tence was: “I have come to see you.
about our church.“ It was in vain tn
tell him that the question was settled
for evidently the question was not set-
tled. This evidence rapidly became cu-
mulative. I could not turn a corner,
but. lo! there loomed up before me the
intelligent inquiring form of mv new
friend—Hendricks. I went to citdrch in
Nashville. bent upon preaching the Gos-
pel, only to see on one of the front seats
this same gentlemen. with half a dozen
friends whom he had brought ten miles
that day to hear me preach. After the
benediction he waited with his gl‘i-l-liug
and a few well selected words about
their prospective church. The. next day
on my‘way to one of the examinations.
I was suddenly confronted by the same
form, and accosted with the question:
“How soon do you think we shall know
about the appropriation for our church?”
I assured him that matters were getting
serious, and he responded that “he had
feltso himself for a long time. .but he
was really anxious to know just; what
we were going to do.“ From that time,
during all my stay at Nashville— of sev-
eral days continuance—like Coleridge’s
“Ancient Mariner.” he "held me with
hisrglittoring eyes.” and whereever he
addressed me, "I could but chose to
sta .” Ibegantofeelm f“ .”

respect for the remainin powers at the

church." After cur breakfast at his lit~
tle home. he took me to see some of the
families. Their first and last words
were: “Yes, sir. we want the church.“

Then we called upon some of the-lead-
ing white families of e town. and
whatever topic of conver ition was en

roads went to “the church." At last it
was suggested that. my time was con-

that l was doing so. when suddenly I
was halted before a vacant lot. where
colored men were laying a very excel-
lent foundation. for a structure which
proved to be the beginnings of “the
