A MAKE-SHIFF FOE HOWE RULE.

Lord Randolph Churchill cannot be said TO
have tried to trump Mr.. Gladstone's trick, but he
plays the highest card in his hand. Knowing
how unpopular the whole system OF Castle
government. is in Ireland, he proposed its
abolition. Dispensing with the Viceroy and his
official household and retainers, he advocated
placing the island on the same footing as Scot
land, with a Secretary of State in the British
Cabinet. This scheme received the sanction
of Lord Carnarvon, the present Viccroy, and
also of Lord Ashbourne, the Lord Chancellor of
Ireland, one of the ablest members of Lord
Salisburys Cabinet, and according to the
latest dispatches has been adopted by the
Cabinet. 1t ought to be popular measured in
Ireland, where even so just and capable Viceroy
as Lord Spencer was denounced usurper
and tyrant. The Nationalists have constantly
inveighed against the abuses of Castle govern
ment and DANGEROUSLY demanded the abolition
of the system. They would have considered
Lord Randolph Churchls proposal great tri-
unph for their cause If Mr. Gladstone had not
encouraged them to expect greater things.
Ii Lord Randolph Churchils scheme in
volved tho abolition of British authority
in Ireland. the Irish members would well
come it as comprehensive measure. But
it does not do this. Mr. Forster as Chief Secre-
tary was the real governor of the island. The
detectives and the cOnstabular force were di-
rected by him; the machinery Of justice was
under his control and the English regiments
garrisonng the island were subject to his
orders. Earl Cow per was the fgurehead Mr..
Forster was the man at the wheel. The Vlceroy
and his mimic court might have been abolished
without affecting chat relentless policy of CO.
ercion which the Chief Secretary vigorously en-
forced. The Irish members are well aware that
the subordinate official can be vested with all
the authority of the Viceroy and that while
there would be one Engishman less in Dublin
under Lord Randolph Churchilps scheme, the
Chief Secretary with the military and con-
stabuar force under his control would be as
powerful as the Lord Lieutenant now is. The
abolition of the Viceroyalty, moreover, would
not place Scotland and Ireland on the same
level The Scotch Office has not been estab-
lished year and its utility and efficiency are
yet to be demonstrated but 1t is manifest that
there is no basis of comparison. The Scotch
Secretary is a legislative agent for people con-
tented with their representation in Westminster
and their relations 10 the British Crown. The
Irish Secretary without VIceroy would be
the real ruler OF Disconnected people who are
clamoring for the right to govern themselves.
The time has passed when English Legislators
can propose halfway measures for Ireland.
This proposal to abolish the Castle system
would have electrified the Nationalist if
brought forward during the last Parliament
Now it will DO roborly and critically dscuesed
in its relations to that larger scheme which Mr..
Gladstone is credited with favoring. The Ma

Whitney's last resort, and he had fully arranged
in his colorless and incompetent Board OF
Experts to rake every advantage of any possible
mishap. But the vessel vindicated the highest
expectations of her designers and builders, and
justified their work in every respect. Defeated
at every point, and with a certain legal defeat
staring him in the face az a final climax, the
Secretary has taken the ungrateful prospect by
the forelock and has surrendered. Let us hope
that in his official acknowled rment of it he will
perfume his irritation with an extract OF grace,
and make no further attempt to justify his
course. We can see no reason why lie should
want 10 deepen the hole into which the Adj
ministration has chosen TO get itself.

Secretary Lamar's decision to let suit be
brought by the Government to vacate the Bell
patent will cause lively excitement in tele-
phone circles. The decision was not unex-
pected in view of recent reports from Washing
ton. Of course it settles no point in contro-
versy between the Bell Company and the rival
corporations 1t merely allows suit to be be-
gun to test the validity of the Bell patent.
Neither will the decision of Secretary Lamar
alter the general lopinion that the Attorney
Generals action in this matter, when it was re-
ferred to his Office some months ago. was
highly improper.

The difference in the and in former instances

If our esteemed contemporary will permit us to
correct it. Mr.. Bradlaugn was not allowed to take
the oath in the instances referred to. He was
authorized TO affirm at his risks, but on no oc-
cason was he pernitted to lake the oath. More
over, the controversy arose Immediately after the
general election in 1880. If Mr.. Bradlaugh had
adopted then the same course of procedure as on
Wednesday last he could not have been denied his
privileges as a member. " The difference in the
case now and in former instances is that he is a
member of the House. having taken the oath. which
he was not allowed to do then. There is an import
ant distinction between expellng member on the

The bill to increase the pay of judges in the
United States District Courts hangs fire In the
Senate. 1t is surprising to learnthat some OF the
Senators think $4,000 is quite enough to pay
these judges. The argument seems to be that
in order to gain reputation good lawyers will
accept places upon the Federal bench and stay
there for some time at least. Doubtless some
excellent lawyers have done this; but in the
opinion of most intelligent observers it is not a
dignifed thing for the United States to take
advantage Of a mans ambition to get their
work done cheaply in that way. Moreover. it
would be an advantage in the administration of
justice to have Federal judges stay upon the
bench as long as possible.
