rha EnalIsh Rx-EIectIons,

Three very important by-elections occurred
in Great Britain on Thursday, Friday and
Saturday of last week. They were at Dun
dee. West Southwark and the West Division
of Edinburgh, and in each the Gladstonian
candidates were elected. But in two of
these elections, at least, the mere statement
of this fact does not tell the whole story. At
Dundee Mr.. Firth, Gladstone's candidate,
was elected by majority of 1863. Com
pared with the last election this is Glad
stonian loss Of about thousand. This loss
Is explained, however, by the fact that Mr..
Firth, who does not live in Dundee, was i'm
posed upon the constituency in place of a
local candidate. The two other elections re-
suited in large Conservative losses, for
which, however, there do not seem to be ex-
plantations so favorable as that advanced by
the Liberals of Dundee. The result at Edin-
burgh, where the course of Mr. Buchanan,
lately Liberal Unionist but now a convert
to Mr.. Gladstone, was endorsed by the elect
ors, marked change of sentiment very fav-
orable to the cause of the Irish patriots.
When Mr.. Buchanan stood as an opponent
Of home rule his majority was about 700;
Saturday, as a home ruler his majority was
about fifty. Perhaps personal popularity
may have counted for something's but the
fact that while both parties made gains, the
home rule gains overwhelmed the Liberal
Unionist gains, shows that thoughtful vot-
ers who staid away from the polls at the last
election because they could not quite endorse
home rule came forward on Saturday fully
satisfied that Gladstone is right. Fridays

ingly satisfactory to the Gladstonians,
though it may be questioned whether it is so
distinctively a home rule victory as the

the Surry side of the Thames. and is one Of

DON Within its limits live many Of the "un-
employed" whose meetings in Trafalgar
Square have been prevented by the Consery-
alive ministry acting through Sir Charles
Warren. At the last election the South Lon
don boroughs one after another were swept
by the Conservatives. and West Southwark
was heid by the Gladstonians by the narrow
majority of 49, Friday the Gladstonian
candidate was elected by over thousand
majority, making clean gain of thousand
votes to Conservative gain of only nine
Though not distinctively a home rule tri-
umph, it is a triumph for the English democ-
racy, and it is the English democracy that
has taken up the cause of Ireland. Should
the elections at Doncaster and Deptford this
week turn as fayorably to Gladstone as did
those Of last week, we may look for renewed
courage on the part of ITeland's friends.
Perhaps the detection of her enemies may be
such that Lord Salisbury will be forced to
dissolve Parliament and take the sentiment

An opera souffe Indictment.

Opera bouife, which the Argus lew days
ago complained was getting into municipal
politics, has now got into the Argus editori-
al column. Yesterday it had an "arraign-
ment'' Of Mayor Chapman's administration
which was Enthusiastically fine specimen Of
opera bouffe. The Argus grayely remarks
that the measure Of taxation is the rent-rate,
that where taxes are high rents are high, and
where taxes are low rents are low-and then
proceeds to show, to Its own satisfaction no
doubt. that rents are going up because one
single solitary individual who had been ac-
customed to let house for SIS month, last
fall when it became vacant managed to let 1t
for sls a month. Yet in the very next
breath it alleges that ''citizens have moved
Inv hundreds into the country to escape the
heavy load of taxation" Now the demand
for rents would seem to have quite as much
10 do with their price as the rate OF taxation

An opera souffe Nomination

The Argus is likely to get its fill of opera
boufe. Last night its party nominated the
Hon. Neal Dow for candidate for mayor.
They were little ashamed of the perform
ance and therefore called it an endorsement
or recomme ndation, but to all intents and
purposes it was nomination. The director
of this opera 6oa.fe was the Hon. III. p.
Frank, and most of the delegates applauded
It, The crowd evidently regarded it as i'm
mensely funny and laughed and hurrahed
until they were out Of breath. 1t was
a very good show of the kind.
and it is matter for regret that
the bad weather kept away SO many Demo-
Gratis who would have enjoyed seeing their
party gulp down a man who has applied to
them the most viterpurative epithets the
English language affords. We shall watch
the subsequent scenes in this opera
boufe with great interest. 10 our esteemed
morning contemporary who will have to take
part in it we tender our heartfelt sympathies.
To our Democratic friends who will have
to sit down to this dish of crow and
pronounce it delicious we tender our
profoundest commiseration. To the Hon.
Neal Dow we tender our heartiest congratu-
lation that he has succeeded in converting
the party to which he has been accustomed
to endearingly refer as the rum Democra-
cy" to his cold water principles. We hope
the reform may prove lasting.
The Portland daily press. [volume] (Portland, Me.) 1862-1921, 1888-02-21

and n good deal more. But it is very curious,
II as the Argus says, people are fleeing from
the city by hundreds, and thereby reduc-
ing the demand for rents, that rents inside
the city are going up; and we respectfully
call upon our neighbor to reconcile this APP
parent inconsistency.
Another item in the opera bouffe arraign-
ment of the Mayor is the allegation that cpl
denies still visit us in their season We
suppose that Thy this the Argus means that
we still have pneumonia In the winter and
spring, cholera morhus and cholera infantum
in the summer, and typhoid fever in the fall,
with occasional cases Of diphtheria and scar
let fever throughout the year. Well, this is
true. and if the Argus has any candidate
that can guarantee the people against dis
ease we shall all be happy to vote for him.
So far our esteemed contemporary has mani
tested great reluctance in revealing the
name of the Moses that can lead us out OF
the wilderness of disease and death In which
the human race has been wandering since
Adams Fall.
The final specification in the opera bouffe
indictment is the bad moral effect OF May
OF OuapIldn hAo 40
something" says the Argus, ''to be discussed
with deep sadness and shame" Neverthe-
less our contemporary bears up nobly and is
very successful in concealing the deep sor-
row which undoubtedly it feels. Its allusion
to the Hon. Neal Dow as that Industrious
citizen, whose years and life work entitle him
him repose from public cares" and its asser-
ton that he has been called to stand ''as can
didate for Mayor as protest against the
present incompetent and Ubiquitous admins
tration" is one of the finest specimens OF
| opera bouffe imaginable. 1t was this same
Industrious citizen" to whom the Argus re-
ferred few days ago in the following para
| graph:
| General Neal Dow is again making statement;
| that he is unable or unwilling to substantiate
| 1t is an old trick of his.
The Industrious citizen" might turn round
now and accuse the Argus of making state
ments that it is unable or unwilling to sub
stantiate. To add that it was one of its ole
tricks would be entirely superfluous.
