IL has his support only in Connection

Such Provision in MIR. Gladstone's

LONDON, May Mr.. Chamberlain has
written letter in reply to one asking him
if he would support the home rule bill
provided it be considered simple aiIirma-
ton of the principle of home rule, leaving
the question Of the retention of Irish mem
bers open for consideration in committee,
in which he says "If Gladstone will MAIN
tain the imperial Parliament as the SIT
preme representative authority in the
kingdom, will gratefully accept the con
cession and vote for the second reading Of
the bill. But | am unable to find in Glad
stones manifesto any such assurance. He
asks us to grant Ireland the right to man
age her own affairs, but if geographical
considerations must yield to Il national
sentiment, then the prayer Of Protestant
Ulster for separate consideration, deserves
equal attention with the demands of those
whom Parnell represents. The fate of
Ulster lies in its own hands if it is earnest
in refusing to entrust its liberties and for
tunes to the Dublin parliament. Fellow
subjects in England and Scotland
will never suffer the Obstetrics
to he coerced into submission. The eX-
tension of home rule to Scotland and
Wales depends on the maintenance of
united representation of the three Coun-
tries in one supreme parliament, leading
to future federation of the great Deepen
denotes of the crown, and welding them
into Il mighty and harmonious empire.
Gladstone's alternative has rendered
necessary anomalies and restrictions

BLAINEISM.


1t is reported that the election of
chairman and secretary of the Re-
publican Congressional campaign com
mittee was the occasion for the meas
uring of strength between Blaine and
auti-Blaine elements. The newly elected
chairman and secretary Representative
GotT of West Virginia, and Mr.. McPher-
son, of Pennsylvania-are devoted adher-
ents of Blaine, while two other gentle
men who were prominently pressed for
positions, Representative Bingham of
Pennsylvania. and commissioner of
Pensions Dudley of Indiana, are bitterly
hostile to Blaine, and are IN full accord
with what Is known as the stalwart wing
of the Republican party. Mr.. Bingham
was formerly one OF the closest friends of
Mr.. Blaine, but he split off prior to the
election of delegates to the Republican
national convention of 1854. and in that
convention made a most effective speech
in favor of Arthur'S nomination. What
ever influence can be exercised in the di-
rectiou of the affairs of the committee will
be used to put up Blaine men for congress
and work up Blaine sentiment in various
congressional districts. 1t is also reported
that affairs have been so managed that
the policy of the impending congressional
campaign will be controlled by those mem
bers of the committee who are friendly tC

TROUBLE OVER FISHERIES.


HALIFAX, n. =, May Much excite
ment is felt at Dighy, owing to the APP
pearauce of American fishermen in the
basin. seeking bait. One schooner that
was in Dgby basin about noon yesterday
had u piece of canvas tackled over her
name, but there is no doubt felt from her
rig and build that she was American.
The schooner remained in the basin and
it Is said bait was purchased from boats
from the shore. During last night the
steamer Lansdowne arrived at Dgby and
at daylight this morning discovered the
schooner still in the basin. The second
officer of the IanSdowne was sent on
board of her and ordered the canvas to be
taken off her name and that she put to
sea at once. At latest accounts she was
making for sea. Another American fish
ing vessel is reported to have obtained
bait in Digby basin yesterday and then
put to sea.
An investigation was held on board the
steamer LausdoWne this afternoon int
the charge against the American fishing
schooner detained at Dlgby. The vessel
proves to be the schooner David j. Adams
of Gloucester commanded by Capt. Allen
kenney. The investigation resulted in
the seizure of the schooner and she will lie
taken to St john tonight by the Lans
dOWue.

The True Interest of the Republican
Party.

1t is not Mr.. Edmunds alone who is in
terested in the election IN Vermont. The
Republican party is quite as much inter
ested If it shall appear that the ablest
Republican leader in the Senate, II pro
found constitutional lawyer, and public
man of the most valuable experience, is
set aside, not because of any want of
faith in Republican principles, not
because of any "bolting' or
mugwumpery, but simply because he does
not like party candidate for whom,
nevertheless, he votes, the Republican
party wifi certainly rot commend itself
more closely TO sensible citizens nor
strengthen itself for future contests. OF
personal character beyond approach, of
official service unspotted with any kind of
suspicion, and of unqueStiOned and inds-
putable ability, Mr.. Edmunds is certainly
as good Il representative of the party aims
and spirit aud tendency as can he found
in the party. We DO believe his defeat to
be probable But should he be defeated
it would not be he who would suffer in
public estimation.
