ploded political bombs lell here o-day

missive eimply stated that his lordship
was no longer acceptable to this govern

IL were ended.
The summary dismissal OF Minister
West was fastened by. the fsct that
tie home government had refused to take
any action in the matter, although they
had been informed of sll the facts
Ia the case over 5 week ago.
The administration could not afford
to wait upon the lethargic movements OF
the English government, and Cleveland
wss thus compelled to take the matter
into his own hsnds. While the R9publi-
cans hers hous the idea that Cleveland
will strengthen himself with the Irish by

nerve ct this iuncture TO step in and dis
miss Great Britsia's representative here,
and that he will cstch the irish vote 70,
his master stroke ct political diplomacy.
