Another Election.

The Gladstone Government having
been defeated on the Home Rule issue
will dissolve Parliament and appeal to
the voters. Thus there will within q
year, lie two elections for Parliament
in both Of which Irish Home Rule
will be the dominant issue. That
cause has within a year made giant
strides and will probably be definitely
settled before it ceases to be the prime
issue, but in what time or manner and
Just to what extent Ireland will be
benefited and the union of the two
countries strengthened is as yet prob
lem unsolved,
The question of the relationship of
England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales
in the confcdcrated kingdom is one to
which many answers may be found and
the departure in the government Of
Great Britain is, today, to greater
extent blind experiment than that
made by her American colonies Il cen
fury ago and if the outcome of that ma
tons governing be but one civil war
in hundred years it will be congratu-
lated by the descendants of the proph-
cts Of to-day, who have little faith in a
pacific future for Great Britain.

Street Filtration.

SO much has been said in conaemna-
ton Of that class Of young men who
amuse themselves by getting up street
flirtatlons with girls who are reckless
enough to meet them half way, that a
few words on the other side Of the
question will not be amiss. While not
designing to present the young man as
q saint, we would suggest that 1lirta-
tions be placed upon the shoulders of
those who justly should have it. Bra
zen as the street hirt appears, he will
not often speak to a woman who offers
him no encouragement. 1t would be
poor sort of fun for him to invite at
ton all day long if his invitation met
with no response. 1t is manifest that
the girls are in large measure to blame
for his presence on the streets. Let
them lay aside their daShing boldness of
manner, which they often foolishly i'm
agne denotes independence, but which
is as dangerous us it IS unscemly. Such
a dcmcanor provokcs from men and
women remarks which would make the
ears Of the average maiden Jingle with
indignation could she but hear them.
There is no doubt that many girls are
lacking in that modesty of demeanor
which would entitle them to consi,cra-
ton. With these, the street Irritation,
frequently resulting in acquaintance,
in manner not IN accord with their
character, could they see themselves as
others see them. Very few girls wish
to be considered fast yet they can by
certain rcckIcasne.3 Of conduct while
in public places earn this appellation.
They may not be guilty Of real badness
but they will certainly lose the respect

The opponents of the measure will ex-
ert all their powers to prevent it's con-
sideration. If they succeed that ends
the matter. If they fail and the bill
comes up there will be general debate
upon it for ten days or more. Then
there will be a motion to strike out
the enacting clause. 1t is believed
that the opposition to the bill is strong
enough to carry this. If it is not the
bill will probably occupy all the rest
of the session, giving way for appro-
priation bills only, and will finally 90
over by adjournment. With the oppo.
sition there is to the bill, three months
can easily be consumed in its consider
alton. The fact that it will stand in
the way of and render it impossible to
pass other bills in which the members
are interested will likely max the
House tire of long session that can be
occupied by but the one bill, and an
adjournment will be had before the bill
is passed. Thus, it is likely to go over
us unfinished business until next ses-
sion. If the thing Wee allowed to
