HON E RULE.

To any one 3. all familiar with the
history of home rule ia Ireland dur
ing the eighteen years of its existancc
from 1872. when Henry Graiian
backed by the volunteers forced the
English government 10 give home
rule 10 ireland, until The year 1900,
when England brib Il bare majority
of The Irish parliament TO sell their
coun,ry's liberty, the apprehensioDs
of English editors and musty states
men regarding the wisdom of the
measure. are lu':icorous in The eX-
treme. II would simply be TO return
something stolen and which the rob
bers have retained 104 wears. During
the debate on the measure of the
union Plunkett said, 81 in the most
express terms deny The competing OF
parliament TO do this act-the act of
voting away home rule-i tell
you that if circumstanced as
you are, you pass this act. it will be a
nullity, and that no man in Ireland
will be bound 10 obey it, Again,
'you have hot been elected for This
purpose; you are appointed 10 make
laws, not legislatures; you are APP
pointed to exercise the functions of
legislators, not to transfer them; and
if you do so your act is dissolution of
the government; you resolve society
into its original elements. and no man
in The land is bound to obey you"
The Irish parliament had no right to
transfer their functions to the British
parliament, and SO in giving home
rule TO ireland at this time, England
would merely restore goods stolen and
retained one hundred and four years
The tact that eighteen years of home
rule was the most prosperous period
in the history of Ire and, is sufficient
answer to the proposition that lrelInd
is not fit for self government,

THE BUSINESS WORLD.

From the later Ocean.
The last week of 1885 was distinc-
tive more for the general Vitality of
trade than for special activity in it,
various branches. The yearly settle
m.nis would naturally occupy uni
yersal attention 10 the extent OF pre-
venting any iarye movenieni. GU eide

cuur-e, but ds siiiution has been far
les con- picu"us as a feature than
usual. TIE interest in The results oil
the wear TO manufacturers and Joboers,
producers and handlers OF natural
products is. therefore, more absorbing
Ihau customary at this period. The
Improvement of business for the
twelve months over 1884 was lot
great enough 10 be specially signlii-
cant iu itself, but the increase both in
the nature OF the trade transactions
and the substantial appreciation in
values OF all descriptions of property
during the second half of The year
speak volumes of encouragement for
the future.
The record of failures for the year
1885 was only about three per cent.
less than for the year 1884, but the ag-
Qregated liabilities were not more Than
hslf so large. The yearly clearings,
too, show but the moderate increase
of about two and one-haif per cent.
rs compared with 1884, though the
Improvement of the later months OF
the year is very marked over the cor
responding months of the previous
period. La considering these c"Inpar-
iso.ss it must be also understood that
1884 was an exceptionally dull year
in all departments OF manufacture and
trade.

President Cleveland very wisely re-
fuses TO champion the cause of those
whom he has appointed 10 office, aud,
in fact, virtually recommends that
some of them be bounced, as no doubt
they will. Mr.. Cleveland gets out OF
this matter in much the same way as
the roadmaster of railroad does
when some one comes to him looking
for a job, and recommended by a
friend. lie sends him Out, promising
the job provided the boss on the
work will take him. The boss won't
always do il. Fresh appointecs are
not the happicst meu in the land just

:torIlGys have made All agreed case that
no steps shall he taken toward collecting
the taxes until the matter is decided by
the supreme conrt. This will be done
some time in February. Meantime the
matter is virtually as it was, except that
Billings county's case seems to be grow
ing stronger. The only similar case that
has hitherto been decided for the ground
agninst which we are fgi ting was dssil-
ed so simply on the question Of expedi-
'ency. Other decisions fayUrs our side.
The case is assuming far wider scope
than was first expected ard will bring
up prominently the gross earnings rail-
road law. Mr.. Bullitt Of St. Paul. is as
sociate counsel with Mr.. Se!mes and has
prepared vsluninous brief which al
most goes back before Che flood in prov
ing our position to be good.
