THE LAND LEAGUE.
One of the most valuable contribu
tions to the history of the Irish Land
League is the article of Mr. T. P.
O'Connor , M. P. , published in the
December Contemporary. Mr.
O'Connor first proceeds to show the
sources from which the Irish news
roach the public. The Dublin correspondent
pendent of the London Times is the
manager of the Daily Express , the
recognized organ of Irish landlords
and the -blHer opponent of Irish re
form an we. ti.thcL.libBral ralmatry.
*
From the IJOK enf1 * th B101"
pirt of cablogrLra , to America are
copied by correspondents and tlio
Land League is maliciously repre'
sentod as hostile to law and order and
the direct cause of a large increase in
crime. Mr. O'Connor has conclu
sively refuted this charge in a mo&1
able and convincing paper , frcm
which wo obtain the following sum
mary :
It is emphatically denied that crime
has increased in Ireland , cithoi
through the land league or any othei
agency. In 1833 , there were In Ire
land , according to official report , 175
.homicides , 465 robberies , 455 hough-
Ings of cattle , 2,095 illegal noticosj
425 illegal meetings , 796 malicious in
juries to property , 753 attacks on
houECB , 3,150 sarioua assaults ;
an aggregate of 8,317. In 1836
the sum total of all crimes
was 23,89L In 1845 "of
fences against the person" numberet
1,093 , and "offences against the pub-
lb peace" 4,645. In 1846 the nura-
bsr of these offences were , respect
ively , 1,923 and 4,76C. In 1848 there
ware 171 hom'cides ' , 97 firings at pot-
i jus , 237 robberies of arms , 95 firing !
Into dwellings , and 750 incendiary
fires. la 1849 , 203 homicides , 53
firings at persons , 113 robberies ol
rms , 90 firing ! into dwellings and
1,066 incendiary fires. In 1859 there
were 45 murders , 2 attempts to mur
der , 57 shooting ai , stabbing , etc. ,
conspiracies to murder and 102 casre
of manslaughter. la 1870 the num
ber nf sgrarlan outrages was 1,329.
Now , according to a return made to
the house of commons at its lasi ten
sion , the sum total of crime in Ire
land from January , 1879 , to January ,
1880 during which period the league
wis in full operation was only
977. For the last year no compleSo
return is yet obUmible , but in ll o
four most distressed counties Gal
way , Mayo , Sligo and Donegal from
Februarpl to June 30 the number of
offenses was 187. In the whole island
during 1880 only five murders are at
t tributed to the land agitation , and one
of those is believed to have been an
act of private vengeance that cf
Wheeler at Limerick a few weeks aco.
These figures show that the operations
of the league have not increamd
crime , rather tha rcvorse.
It has not been towards increasing
disorder , but towards preventing dis
tress that the cflorts of the land league
have boon directed. Mr. Gladstone
himielf admits most fisnkly that in
proportion to the distress of the ten
ants the landlords rasorfc to the pro
cess of the Uw and wbcu least able to
p y raut are most liable to ba turned
out of doors. The effjrts of the land
league have bsen directed towards pre
venting evictions by making them un
profitable to the landlords. What has
bean the result ?
In 1847 , 70,000 tenants were evict
ed , or about 300,000 persons. Tn
1849 , 50,000 evictions took place , and
from 1849 to 1852 inclusive , 221,845.
Tais WM in the ftur years succeeding
the great famine , when starving
wretches lay dying on the highways ,
and the purse of landlordism remain *
ed , closed .to the sufferings of the ton-
ants. In 1886,1,269 evictions took
place. In this year the crops were
aveiage. In 1848 , when the
harvest was poorer , 1,749 evictions
were recorded , and in 1880 when
famine was Imminent 4,000 tenants ,
unable to meet the demands of rent ,
were turned out of house and home.
At the beginning of the season Mr.
Gledstone expressed the fear that at
least 15,000 persons "would be eject-
id from their homes , without hope or
emedy , in the course of the present
ear'1 (1880) ( ) . Instead or 15,000 evlc-
IODB there have been only 4,000 ; and
IT. O'Connor says : "The only agen-
: y which did exist in 1879 and 1880 ,
and did not exist in 1847 and 1848 ,
and the only agency , therefore , that
an have caused the decrease in ovic-
ions is the land league. "
The Land League strengthened the
Ailing hopes and cheered the spirits
if a struggling and suffering "people.
So far from encouraging crime it dis-
caurnged all manifestations of dis-
crdor. This remarkable organization
has kept within the law , and by its
ilent though powerful influence has
exercieed a control over the people
which neithar landlordism nor the
display of armed forces has been able
to dissipate. This is. the reason that a
hireling and partial press has as-
cailed with its abuse
men like Parnell and Dillon.
Having accomplished such great re
sults there ara still greater ends in
view. Until a fair and equitable ays
tern of land tenure prevails in Ireland
the work of the league will not be fin
ished. It is daily increasing in
strength , popularity and influence.
Ouly Irishmen know how loyal ,
how disinterested , how steadfast are
ts members. And when the future
hittcry of Ireland is written Its mem
bars will take their places by the side
of the bravest and noblett opponents
of Erin's wrongs , and the most fe&r-
lees defenders of Ireland's rights.
