The Overthrow of Gladstone.

The rock on which the Gladstone minis
try went to pieces was the tax on beer. The
government survived its abandonment of
Gordon, it survived Lord Wolseley's disas-
trous campaign and Gordon's death, it sur
vived the cry of the Jingoes that it had alb
jectly surrendered to the Gear, it survived
the opposition of the landed proprietors to
the extension of the franchise lit had sur
vived all these-and seemed to be sailing
along on comparatively smooth water when
1t encountered the obstruction which nobody
had locked upon as serious but which proved
to be fatal. A closer examination, however,
Of all the circumstances attending the wreck
will, we think, show that there were causes,
other than opposition to the beer tax, contri-
buting to it. The attitude of the ministry
In regard TO the Crimes act had aroused con-
siderable dissension in the ranks of the Lib
erals and srrayed the Parnellite faction
solidly against the government. The char
acter of the shouts Of the Irish members
when the vote was declared shows conclu-
siyely that it was the Crimes act and not the
beer tax that was uppeImost in their minds
when they threw their votes against the
ministry. The exact truth doubtless is that
the defeat of the ministry was the result of a
long series of blunders which had gradually
disintegrated its support, and which culmin-
ated In the propositions to raise the tax on
beer and to renew the Crimes act. Mr..
Gladstone has been prime minister since
April %, 1880. When be came into Office
the House of Commons consisted of $40 Lib
erals, 243 Conservatives, and go Home
Rulers, Liberal majority over all of 40.
New elections consequent upon the death
and resignation of members reduced
the Liberal strength somewhat. Discomfort
at the ministry's slowness in sending succor
to Gordon, disappointment that the sue
cor came too late, and dissatisfaction with
the Afghan policy reduced it still more. And
finally the powerful opposition of the brew
ers to an increase in the beer tax and the
disgust of the Parnellites over the renewal
of coercion in ireland have changed a ma
jority into minority.
The overthrow of the ministry comes at a
very inopportune time, and the Tories, now
that their first burst Of joy is over, are appar-
emily beginning to regret their success. The
government was in The midst of delicate nego-
tiations with Russia, on the result of which
hangs the fate of two empires. The Tories
must now decide whether TO continue these
negotiations or to break them off. If they de-
eide. to continue .themthey stultify themselves
for they have unsparingly denounced them
from the beginning. If they break them off
the almost INEVITABLE consequence will be
the plunging of the nation into war, and the
English people do not want war. Their vic
tory therefore has left an elephant on their

1t passes our comprehension how the
Warner silver scheme is going to cure any
of the evils which the country is now suffer-
ing from the silver coinage. The country
has all the paper currency that it needs and
far more silver than it wants. A great part
of the latter lies piled ap in the treasury
vaults. Now Mr.. Warmers proposition is to
stop coming more actual silver dollars bat to
issue an unlimited amount of paper repre-
senting silver dollars. If the country has
all the silver dollars, and many more too, that
1t needs what sense is there in flooding it
with certificates representing silver dollars?
Practically the silver certificates are silver
dollars of which we have superabHndance
already. What is needed is a reduction of
the amount of our silver currency but War
ner's scheme will increase it much more
rapidly than the present law.

We regret to see that our esteemed Demo
cratic contemporary, the Bangor CONNER
cial, is growing impatient at the Presidents
slowness in turning the rascals out. The
Commercial should possess its soul in pa
tience. In due time 1t will see all the ras-
calls turned out. But the Mugwumps must
be let down gradually.

II the government is going to agree to take
of the hands of the bonanza kings all the
products of their mines we don't see any
good reason why it should not be equally
liberal to the iron masters. There is at pres
ent a superhaous stock of iron on hand, the
market is depressed and wages are low in
consequence. Why shouldn't the govern
ment invite the iron men to turn their SUI
perfuous stock into the United States treas
uryp Certificates based upon iron would be
Is sound as certificates based upon silver,
and the iron men are quite as deserving as
the silver men. Then in case of an over
production of wheat the same policy might
be followed with regard to that article. In
deed we are not sure but that happy solu-
ton of the whole problem of overproduction
lies in Gen. Warmers silver scheme.

We are informed that the two policemen
whom Mayor Deering found watching a
game of base ball on Pleasant street, were
really watching the rumshops in that locali-
ty. But we can't quite understand why two
policemen on Sunday should permit game
Of base bah to proceed in their presence.
The playing of base ball in the streets is con-
trary to the ordinance on week days. On
Sunday 1t is not only violation of the ordi-
nance but Of the statute as well. II would
seem that if policemen are not sufficiently
posted in their duties to stop game of ball
on Sunday they ought to be instructed by
the Mayor OF Marshal.

The New York Sun and the Boston Her
aid are vigorously discussing the rather stale
question ''Who elected Cleveland?' It is
of very little consequence now who elected
him. Many who helped elect him undoubt.
eddy now wish they hadn't, while some, very
likely the New York Sun among them, who
did not help elect him wish they had.
Of the former class are those who are
disappointed because he has not turned out
more of reformer.

hands which is destined to prove exceedingly
troublesome, and if they could have an OPP
portunity to vote over again it is altogether
likely that they would take good care that
the government be not defeated. The
general elections occur in the fall, and the
Tories will probably find themselves in much
worse shape to contest them by reason of
their victory of Monday night and the
grave responsibilities which it entails, un-
less their leaders suddenly develop a much
greater amount of wisdom and skill than
they have been credited with possessing.
