Ireland and the Clergy.

So much has been said about the position of the
Roman Catholic clergy in Ireland regarding the
Land League that it is worth while mentioning
that the Pope has expressed himselfin the columns
of the OSserriore Romano as hoping that Opportune
and speedy measures on the part of the govern
that it is the supreme duty of the SONS of the
Church to separate themselves from the promoters
of revolution, not forgetting that even in defense
oflegitimate interests the goodness of the end does
not justify the employment of anarchial and un-
constitutional means calculated to compromise
the future of the country. This plainly refers to
the Land League and it may be expected to have
considerable effect

WOuld-ha ExnuIsiOn.

The plan invented for the Kellogg Louisiana
case, to expel Senator by majority vote while
the Constitution requires twOthirds, is not work
ing well. Ten Democratic Senators, voting with
the Republicans blocked it on Monday, and it
ought to be blocked all the time. Kellogg's title
tied it; but it was settled and the attempt to re-
open it is but fragrant attempt to do what the
Constitution says shall not be done. Unseating
and no mere majority vote can do that.-Public
Ledger, Philadelphia.

As USuaL.

The usual blunder in the Kellogg case having
been recorded, the Democrats may perhaps be con-
tent to let it subside. No session would be COM
plete, of course, until the blunder was made. The
public has been taught to expect it as q part
of the regular Democratic programme. If nothing
more is done about it, the promised Louisiana liar
will not be produced. This will be in the nature
of a disappointment, and Mr.. Ben Hill should
take it upon himself to modify the public regret
somewhat by announcing whether or not the new
specimen is red-headed-NelC York Tribune.

THE question is, there fore, whether the Pennsyl-
vania Republicans shall have Senator represent
ing them or one representing merely the machine.
The caucus has decided in favor of Mr. Oliver, but
it would have decided with equal alacrity in favor
of Smith, Brown, Jones, or Robinson if the ma
chine had told it to. minority of the Republi-
can members hold out against its decision and
stand upon the instructions of their constituents
They are entitled to the respect of all men who be-
lieve in fairness in politics, and who think that
the people should rule instead of being ruled by
the men they elevate to office.-NeIc York Tribune.
This revives the question as to how
the people" can best make themselves
heard. If the majority of the Republi-
can members who vote for Oliver were
not voted for by "people" how did they
get their seats? How can We be sure
that the people" have seen the Tribune
and made known their will? We are
assured that the people" are always be-
ing trodden upon by the lordly machin-
lists. How do these manage to get power
requiring votes if the people who do the
voting are 50 violently opposed to them

The Treasury Department.

1t has been definitely ascertained that
General Garfield will not make Secre-
tary of the Treasury until the 4th of
March. That work will in the meantime
devolve upon all shades. and sizes of
other men in and out of newspapers.
We know that the President-elect is not
the man to ignore any of the elements
which should enter into the decision of
so great question. Most fippant are
the daily statements on this subject.
Does any sane man believe that General
Garfield himself has given himself bonds
that he will stop thinking, and that he
will act six weeks from now upon the
thinking he has done up to this date?
The forces in politics which are in con-
troll of the party, which in turn controls
the Nation, are not matters of theory, but
matters of fact The drum-maiors of
politics who arrange the noise do not
dictate the line of march. Our new
never succeeded in directing his move
ments whilei in Congress, and they will not
be any more fortunate in running him as
the Chief Magistrate of the Nation. He
will take his own time, and will not feel
bound to fulfill any of the predictions
which he has not originated. This very
matter of the Treasury Department is one
which he will no doubt feel at liberty to
leave an open question until he sees the
very best thing to do. He may be urged
fp hn hI1s nf RnCfnn
or New York for his Finance Minister, or
he may be told he had better ego West"
for the man. He is not bound to ignore
the advantages or disadvantages Of either
locality. He may one day argue to HIM
self that the Western man would excite
less jealousy of the "money power" and
the next days thinking may bring to his
mind suggestions that the Treasury De-
partment will likely be compelled to
recognize the solid men of the East from
time to time in the interest of the Gov
ernment. Again, he may say to himself
that if the great New Englander is to pre-
side in the State Department, the great
New Yorker ought to be asked to counsel
with his friends, including General
Grant, and propose to him some hon.
ored name for the other position.
This would be so gracious, and so like
the man for whom New York did so much.
1t may be that at present this has not
been decided on. Indeed, the contrary
may seem advisable in the mind of Gen
eral Garfield. And yet reflection and the
counsel of friends may finally determine
him to take New York man.
We have no fear that the administra-
ton is to be beclouded at its very begin
ming by any well-grounded complaints of
bad faith to the party or ingratitude to
any who have deserved well. We depre-
cate the daily twaddle about impending
or existing disagreement between Gen
eral Garfield and Senator Conkling. There
are none now, and we will not believe
there are to be until they come.
