Mr.. Parnell fully endorsed the
speeches for which the recent ar
rests in Ireland were made. He
strongly denounced the action Of
the Government, which he predicted
would utterly fail in its object. The
agitation against landlordism, he
said, would be continued. The res
olutions by Mr.. Parnell were car
ried with enthusiasm, to the effect
that the arrests are arbitrary, uncon-
stitutional and calculated to weaken
the confidence of the people of
Ireland in the impartiality of its
laws. That Government which
squanders the blood and treasure of
the people in unjust wars abroad,
while misery and famine are unre-
lieved at home, stands condemned
in the eyes of all right-minded and

THERE are two Turner's in congress
says the Chicago Times, both from Ken
lucky, who boast the same blood and
the same style of politics. They are a
good deal alike in other respects, inso-
much that there is a liability of their
getting mixed up in the minds of peo-
Pile who do not know that there is a
difference between them. There is a
difference in their names. One is Mr..
Oturner, and the other is Mr.. Teturn-
err. One would think it should be pref
ty difficult TO confiound two such dis
tinctly different phenomenal appella-
tons; yet it has been done, and to such
a degree that IL took more than al hour
of the time of the house for the two
avoid a like occurrence, it should be dis
tinctly understood that the Turner who
proposed to amend one of the steering
committees back-out bills by abolish
ing the fifteenth amendment was not
Mr.. Teturner but Mr.. Oturner. To
avoid the danger of mixing those Turn
ers up, Mr.. Teturner voted against it.
Had the amendment been offered by
the other Turner, no doubt Mr.. Oturn-
er would have voted against it for the
same reason. There is nothing those
Turner's so much dread as losing their
identity.
