Henry Ward Beecher on Ireland

NEW YORK, Nov 5-Henry Ward
Beecher said Thursday that he thought the
land question lay at the bottom of every
thing in England. He thought there would
be redistribution of the land and change
in the landlords, and prophesied that the men
who worked the land would eventually be-
come the owners of it. He thought there
would alsob a great social revolution, which
would leave the country more democratic
than it is to-day. and declared that discstab-
lishment was sure to take place He said
there was no likelihood of separation be-
tween England and Ireland, but that Ireland
might gain home rule in a modified form.

of the Ways and Means Committee ?
Comments of The Washington Post
Republican Gain in Kentucky - The
+ latest from the Field OF Strife.
WASHINGTON Cry, Nov. politicians
continue to discuss the result of the late cleo
ton The Fiftieth congress is looked for
ward to as one that will not be distinguished
for any important legislation. 1.-THE cleo
tions,n said one shrewd observer Friday,
shave secured to the country three years
rest from tariff agitation-the first rest of the
kind it has had for long period. The next
presidential election will be fought on the
record of the administration, not on the leg
islation of congress"
The question of who is likely to succeed
Mr.. Morrison as chairman of the committee
on ways and means. is one about which little
definite idea can be formed at present.
When chairman of committee retires he
is usually succeeded by the second member
and the second member of the committee on
ways and means is Roger @ Mills, of Texas.
Abram S. Hewitt comes next on the list, but
he is now lost to congress, and his place must
be filled by another The chairman of the
committee on ways and means is generally
recognized as ex- officio leader of the party
on the floor of the house; SO
that the appointment to be made
is more important by far than an any other
committee appointment
The Post, DEM commenting on the result
of the election, avs: The Democrats have
suffered substantial defeat all along the
line in the elections just held. 1t useless to
disguise the fact or to ignore it, and it is too
early to attempt to outline the reasons for it,
or learn the lessons which it may be sup
posed to teach
Zone thing is sufficiently obvious: If the
next presidential election is thrown into the
house, the Republicans will elect--Nirginia
