The Irish Question.

1t has been expected that Mr.. Glad
stone would submit his project of home
rule to parliament on Thursday, but
another postponement is suggested.
Several forecasts of his plan have been
given in the English press, but it is not
certain that any one of them has good
claim to authenticity. According to the
latest draft of the proposed measure,
given by the Freeman's Journal of
Dublin, the appropriation will not be
compulsory, but it is to be left to the
landlords in Ireland to say whether any
change at all in the existing conditions
of land tenure shall take place. The
purchase money, calculated upon the
value of the estates to be determined
by commission, will be paid to the
landlords in lump sums by the British
government, which would in turn be
reimbursed by the Irish government
Ito be created by the hOme-rule billy
from the proceeds of the collections
made by installments from the tenants,
thenceforth transformed into owners.
1t is also believed that Mr.. Gladstone
will propose statutory parliament in
Dublin, placed in position of prac-
teal independence, with wide range
of legislative authority and entire con-
troll over administration, including
law and police. The scheme reserves
to the imperial government little more
than the command of the armed forces
of the crown. A great mass-meeting
was held in London, Friday, to protest
against the granting OF a parliament to
Ireland. But two hundred persons
voted against a resolution offered by
Sir John Lubbock QiberaD, member of
parliament, condemning Mr.. Gladstone
for his intention of " handing Ire
land over to Mr.. Parnell, whom he
previously denounced" The Scotch
liberals are hostile to any broad scheme
of home-rule for Ireland, and this may
compel Mr.. Gladstone to modify his
policy in several particulars.

THE strike in the Southwest is yet
unsettled. Manager Hoxie, to whom
the matter was referred by Jay Gould,
consented to arbitrate the difficulties
with the Missouri Pacific strikers, as
proposed by Grand Master Powderly of
the knights of Labor; but the refusal of
Mr.. Hoxie to take back men to work
who were personally engaged in de-
stroying property of the company, or
whose places had been filled with new
men, occasioned hitch in the nego-
tiations. A 81. Louis dispatch of Mon
day reported that the order Of the ex-
ecutive committee to the knights of
Labor to resume work on the Missouri
Pacific had been countermanded, and
that the strike was to be continued.
Many trains are moving, but they are
manned by new hands. The deter
mination of the strikers not to 90 to
work unless they can return in body
may have serious consequences for
them, for as their places are being rap
idly filled they will soon have to seek
work elsewhere. At Fort Worth,
Texas, a conflict of strikers with the po-
lice occurred on Saturday, in which an
officer was killed and one of the strikers
seriously wounded. That place is now
protected by the military. AT Parsons,
Kansas, some forty of the strikers have
returned to work. Mr.. Powderly is Sc
riously i'll, and the national committee
of the Knights of Labor seems power
less to control action of the local as
semblies. 1t is not believed that the
strikers can much longer hold out, as
the authorities are determined that
railroad traffic shall be resumed. The
strikers in the country are now esti-
mated to number thirty thousand
against fifty-two thousand ten days ago.

The Sham Reform.

The recent speeches of Senators In
gals of Kansas and Harrison of Indi-
ana, showing how the administration
has worked the principles of civil serv-
ice reform among the federal offices,
were hardly needed to convince the
country that the pretenses of the adj
ministration in favor of this reform are
the merest sham; but the senators pre-
sented many new facts in confirmation
of this conclusion. There have been
hundreds of removals in the railway
mail service alone without cause or
without the pretense of cause, and no
one will maintain that the changes were
made to improve the efficiency of the
service. In not a few counties of In
diana the active supervising democratic
committees are composed of postmas-
tiers and revenue officers, thus violating
distinctive provision of the civil serv-
ice law. Senator Harrison showed, as
stated last week, that three hundred
sixty-one Union soldiers and eleven
widows of soldiers had been removed
from office in Indiana, and but ninety
soldiers and one widow of a soldier APP
pointed in their places. He also showed
that good many republican newspaper
editors had been removed from Office
on the ground of offensive partisan
ship" and that sixteen democratic
editors had been appointed to office.
OF course no one believes that these
democratic editors will feel bound to
pursue neutral course in the next
campaign, but they will be as "offen-
sively partisan as the republican
editors who have been turned out. Mr..
Harrison well says that to serve mans
party faithfully, honestly, zealously is
not disgrace or disqualification for
holding office. Said he q" Let us have
done with these charges of offensive
partisanship, turning a man out for the
very causes which are the recommends
tons of the man who is put in" The
fact is that when the President has all
the time made a pretense of carrying
out his reform professions, and of re-
speeding the civil service law, he has been
violating the spirit of both with i'm
punity. The President has had no ex-
cuse for such double-dealing, except it
may be that he wanted to deceive the
mugwumps. In the recent debate
many of the senators of both parties
were pretty well agreed that it is gen.
orally better for the country that re-
publican administration should be run
entirely by republicans and a demo-
cratic administration by democrats.
History has shown" said Mr.. Voor-
hees (democraO, that no party can
administer the affairs of a government
through the instrumentality of it's enc
miles," When the people," said Mr..
ingalls, (republican), decided on a
change of administration, that implied
that there should be a change of the
agencies through which the admins
tration might be made effectual."

will not consent to the admission of
any new state at this session. After a
lengthy debate, the arbitration bill
passed the house on Saturday by one
hundred ninety-nine yeas to thirty
nays. 1t gives the sanction of congress
to the principle of arbitration, and pro-
vides method of applying the princi-
pie, which the parties to a contro-
versy may avail themselves of or not,
and may use their discretion about
abiding the result of the arbitrament.
1t provides for the formation within the
law of tribunal consisting of one on
each side of the controversy, the two
to select third. If they do not select
as provided within three days the
United States court of the jurisdiction
in which the trouble exists shall do so.
This tribunal shall have the standing
of a United States commission, with all
its powers, and shall be paid in like
manner. The expense in any one
case is limited to 81 900. Washington
dispatches state that the house COM
mittee on agriculture will report favor
ably bill to impose tax upon the
manufacture of imitation butter. 1t
was shown that recently oleomargarine
had been offered to some wholesale
dealers at five cents per pound. 1t is
conceded that there is no other way in
which congress can regulate the manu-
facture and sale of oleomargarine ex-
cept through the internal revenue laws
and by imposing a tax upon it. 1t is
feared that the southern members, who
are generally opposed to internal rev.
enue taxes, will defeat the proposed
measure.

then the beginning again of the use of
liquors the effect would be a frightening

made the statements relating to being
chased by Indians, and being run away
with by horses and cutting the horses
mouth, that person to beat the time in a
sober state, aud if there was no evidence
to show that the person was drunk, and
that the facts that he stated were not
true, and he stated them to be true, that
that person was insane. / should say the
same regarding all the statements set
forth in the HYPOTHETICAL case.

that it may be called e~xaltation insanity

subject would be in constant fear OF
some one, and that his conduct would

say that the subject would, if met by

these delusions of fear, be liable to act
in some way. I should say that if any
person was known to have exclaimed
what this defendant did utter, on the
day of the shooting, that he was labor

being duly sworn, testified as follows:
1 reside in Yankton, and have lived
here for some time past. l am a physi-
clan. Have bsen in practice since
1864. ! I'm o graduate of Rush medical
college. l have had experience in the
treatment OF insane persons, in the Ne
brasks asylum, and in the Yankton
hospital. / have heard all the testimony
from the beginning to the end of the
defence. l should say that if the facts
as developed by the evidence BIZ true, l
believe the defendant to be partially in
sane. The nature of this insanity is of
the delusion order. Tue state of mind
in which the defendant seems to have
been in indicates monomania.
The fact of the exclama-
ton as uttered by this defendant, if it
is true, indicates that at that time he
labored under a delusion, a delusion re-
garding bodily harm from Indians
might result in an alteration or a re-
treat, If a meeting came about.
Cross Eramtnata0n-I should say that
an insane person would keep away from
any person Of whom he stood in fear. |
should say that if at the time of utter
ing this speech regarding his beng the
son of God, etc, that he might have
been drunk or insane. A man wonld be
liable if he was intoxicated or insane
to tell of being pursued by Indians.
| The delusion of exaltation
and the delusion of suspicion
are not found together. Neither
are the decisions of exaltation
and persecution found together in one
patient. 1 should say that two of these
three delusions might be caused by
whisky. 1 should say that the insanity
which the defendant had or has, might
be temporary or permanent. Perma
nent insanity and durable insanity arr
not the same. Monomania is a tern
used to denote o partial loss of reason
The balance of the intellect may be al
right.
