THE IRISH NATIoNALIsTs.

Amidst the uncertainties that surround
the coming election in England resulting
from the extension of the franchise and the
changed attitude of the Conservatives on
some of the most pressing questions, one
fact is clear and certain. The Irish Nation
alists will enter the campaign with more en-
thusiasm and with stronger hope of win
ming substantial victory than ever before.
Mr.. ParnelPs recent bold announcement that
the goal the Nationalist are seeking is the
repeal of the union appears to have made
very deep impression on the English mind
and awakened both the Liberals and Con-
servatiyes to realizing seuse of the strength
OF the Nationalist movement That Mr.
ParnelPs followers are likely to hold the
balance of power in the next Parliament if
they hang together is conceded on all hands
And Mr.. Parnell is fully alive to the danger
of discord and is taking every precaution
possible to prevent it. All the National
candidates are pledged in advance to vote as
unit in the House of Commons, and further
more each candidate is to agree to re-
sign his seat whenever majority of the
H0merule members shall ask him to do so.
There can hardly be doubt therefore that
Mr.. Parnell will have his followers well in
hand and be able to throw their votes as
unit whenever he sees fit in the next House.
The power of a compact body of men ami
mated by the same purpose and voting on all
questions as one man must obviously be very
great in body where the two leading par
ties are going to be pretty evenly divided, as
will undoubtedly be the case in the next
House of Commons. 1t will certainly be
in its power to defeat any legislation to
which either party is opposed, and to pass
any measure which either party, as party,
supports. In other words, on all party
measures it will hold the balance of power.
1t is, therefore, going to be courted by both
the Liberals and the Conservatives; ana its
opportunities for profitable trades are sure
to be many and frequent. That Mr.. Parnell
will in the next Parliament secure Homerule
for Ireland is not at all likely. Doubtless he
himself does not expect that. But he will
probably be able to compel new concessions
as the price Of his support, and thus advance
a step nearer his goal. The concessions he
has already obtained would have been
deemed impossible a few years ago. The
only danger to which he is exposed, and it
looks as II that had been averted comes from
the lmpatienee Of his followers, some Of

The Maxwell case bids fair to take its
place in the foremost rank of causes ceEebres.
Though when the body was found in the St.
Louis hotel its Identification as Preller's
seemed to be complete there are now strong
reasons for believing that Preller is still
alive. Two men, with no motive apparently
but to tell the truth, testify positively that
they have seen Preller alive since the body
was found in ST Louis and now letter has
been received which is either in his hand
writing or.is remarkably fine counterfeit.
If Maxwell killed Preller he evidently has
accomplices in the country who are doing
their best to screen him.

The season of fairs was opened as auspi-
ciously as the weather permitted at Bangor
yesterday, where the New England fair is
held in connection with the Eastern Maine
fair. The show at Bangor last year was an
exceedingly creditable one, and this year
with good weather, we may expect it to be
greatly surpassed. The Bangor people never
do anything by halves. Enthusiasm is one
OF their prominent characteristics, and it
always tells.

The New Hampshire legislature has adj

Mr.. Kelley told a New York reporter the
other day that the Austrian government
was weak one and that the reason it OBJ

Italy II Mr.. Kelley should attempt to rep
resent this government at the Austrian
court now Austria would undoubtedly bring
up this declaration against him. Mr.. Kelley
evidently has not got over his fatal propen-
slty for opening his mouth when he should
keep it shut

Even Presidents have some rights which a
newspaper is bound to respect, and the right
to go fishing and hunting with their friends is
one Of them. The New York World sent a
reporter to pursue the President into the
Adirondack wilderness, and when it found
he had taken precautions to prevent
any such pursuit it became exceedingly
wroth, and proceeded to lecture the Presi-
dent on his exclusiveness and to reprimand
him for aping royalty. The World talks nom

The precautions taken to prevent the
spread of small pox in Montreal are not very
stringent. Many of the houses where the
disease exists are not marked in any way,
and inmates of them minge freely with peo-
pie in the streets. The authorities of Onta-
rio declare that unless more stringent meas
ures are adopted they will cut off all commu-
nication by rail with the infected city.

The granting of new trial to Riel the
Northwest rebel, will undoubtedly furnish
the government an escape from its unpleas-

The danger of a strike on the railroads of
the Gould system, if it ever existed, has in
some way been averted. There are people
who believe the whole business was put up by
Dir. Jay Gould to affect prices of securities.
There is nothing in Mr.. Gould's character or
past methods to render this view improbable.
