to policy holders, are facts which are full of
meaning, and produce practical results.

accomplishes the good for which it was
founded. Mr.. Richard A. McCurdy is the
able and popul ar president of the company.

Salsbuly's judgment, in which very few Eng
lish politicians will concur. The action OF the
National Liberal Federation this week commit
ting the party to the policy of Home Rule for
Ireland indicates that the Prime Minister Is
only begging the question.
Having received this mandate against lcgis-
latiye separation, Lord Salisbury promises to
restore in Ireland that social order the loss OF
which is the only just cause OF its discontent.'
He asserts that the Government will devote its
whole energy to freeing the loyal people of the
island from constrant, whether in the form OF
riot. or in the molc dangerous, insidiOus, and
effective form of intimidation" These arc gilt
terirg gcncralitics, which can mean only one
thing. The restoration Of social order and the
abolition of the restraints of League law cannot
be eff ectcd unless the Government is armed
with something besides " the mandate of the
constituencies against separation" The oldi-
nary law will be rigidly enforced for few
months and then coercion will be tried for the
hundrcdth time.

It is true. if the banks do not want to sllrren-

ceptionally sllilful and exceptionally muscular
Jockey, and the result was that even the

penalty, but only a colt of genuine merit can
defeat Dew Drop even with such an advantage.
The bankers in convention at Boston ycstcr-
day made another protest against the continued
coinage Of silver dollars under the Act of 1878,
and they stated the case clearly. 1t snakes
little difference to them whether or not one OF
the precious metals is driven out of use as
money but they urge In behalf of persons
living on limited salaries and all wage -cafncrs
that the standard Of value shall not be reduced
to silver as it surely will be if silver dollars
are coined much longer at the present rate.
Prices would go up, and wages would be paid
in dollar worth less than 75 cents. Fanat-
ical silver men may deny this; but the fact
remains 1t cannot be gotten rid of by abusing
the bankers as lot Of selfish capitalists.
Mr.. Bayards hostile and determined attitude
toward Mexico in the Cutting case does not
scare the Guardians bit. They have just
issued warning to American fishermen forbid
ding them to fish in the Bay of Chalcur, be-
tween New w-Brunswick and Quebec, although
it is fifteen miles wide at the entrance. Evl-
dcntly the authorities are going to enforce theIi
own Interpretation of the thrce-mile limit which
is that the shore line extends from headland to
hcadland and not along the actual shore. If
their views on this point are correct their latest
action is at least logical Probably the report
that all American vessels have been forbidden
to enter this bay for any purpose whatever is
untrue. In view of the inaction of the Gov
clnmcnt at Washington the Canadians prob
ably think they can do about as they please
in this fisheries business yet they would hardly
dare go so far, we think, rs to refuse United
States vessels commercial privileges in any OF
their ports. If they have done 80, however,
even Mr. Bayard may think that at last his
friends arc in the wrong.

COERCION FOR IRELAND

Lord Salsbury's speech at the Lord Mayor,
banquet was cautiously wo!dcd bat it con-
tanned a distinct menace Of coercion. He as
suncd that the English people had settled il.
lcvocably the question of a separate legislature
for Ireland and that the new Government ha,
direct mandate from the constituencies to
govern the island firmly, and not to make the
concessions demanded by thIcc-qualtcrs of IT.
constitutional representatives. Many English
journals and politicians have contendcd tha,
the verdict of the country in the recent cleo
tons was against Mr.. Gladstone's scheme O,
Home Rule. but not necessarily against the
abstract principle of a separate legislature.
Lord Salisbury interprcts the result more rigid
ly. He maintains that the people have voted
against separate Legislature and settled The
question once and forever. II can never again
be taken up by the constituencies. 1t has bccd
decided finally and inevocably. This is Lord
