ITS END ACCOMPLISH ED.

Mir ,Parnell's withdrawal from further appearance before the commission of in- quiry need not be regarded as bringing any comfort to the London Times. It is simply declaration that he and the other Irish leaders associated with him have no confidence in the fairness and impartiality of thejudges. It is a public and formal announcement that, so far as they are con cerned, the end of the commission is ac- oomplshed.
 When MT Parnell was charged with the authorship of certain letters that formed the basis of the charges contained in the Times: articles on "Parnellism and Crime and np other means was available for dis proving the charges, he made his defense before the commission That defense showed that the allegations of the Times were false, that they were the result of a conspiracy between Pigott, Houston and the Times, and that the Salisbury govern ment was party to the foul plot. This was made clear when Pigott confessed, fled and left his dishonored carcass as an eloquent reminder of the sale of his honor and manhood. The object of MT Parnell's appeaFance before the commission was then accomplished. Hc should have with drawn at that time. But hoping probably that the commission which ordered the production of every scrap of evidence that could serve to connect him with the advocates of physical force and violence would at least permit him tp show up the conspiracy against him, that it would allow him the privileges
 that were so readily granted to his accu- sers, he remained until the refusal to or der the production of the Loyal and Pa triotic unions books emphasized the pur- pose of the commission to deny him jus tice. That denial was proof that Parnell was not to be allowed to reveal to the world a conspiracy viler than any govern
 ment.of modern times had allowed itself ever to harbor. It was a simple declara tion that the commission was an auxiliary branch of the Times, and that nothing that would tend to vindicate the character of Parnell was to be permitted. Parnell could no longer demean himself by seek ing for justice at it's hands.
 The commission may go on if it chooses | trying to do the work that failed in the l hands of the Lcndon Times. It can bring
 ID comfort to the Times The world
 knows that the letters charged to Parnell were, ,forgeries, it knows that the Times
 is @ convicted liar, perjurer and suborner
 of perjury. It knows that Parnell is the
 true. honest and patriotic advocate of con-
 stitutional remedy for Ireland's woes; that
 he is worthy of all the confidence, all the estesm and all the honor in which he is
 held fin every quarter of the civilized globe
 outside the walls of Windsor and West
 minister.
 Parnell has beat the Times with it's own
 weapons.

TIE intention of the Connecticut dem ocrats to "get together" through confer once to be held next week at Hartford strikes the esteemed Meriden Republican as hueg conspiracy on the part of Chair man Davis to bargain and dioker with the liquor dealers and brewers associatioe for the defeat of the prohibitory amendment. It will be news to most people to learn that there will be any need of dickering to defeat an amendment that has nothing but the zsalotry and fanaticism of cranks to commend it. The only thing that at all ap- breaches our esteemed contemporary in powers of penetration is the lens in the Lick telescope.

MUzzL1NG THE PRESS.

The state of Minnesota has made a move towards muzzling tho press within its boundaries, but it is not going to succeed without an effort. In fact the newspapers propose to lock horns with the muzzling law without delay.
 The law which strikes at the freedom of the press, taking from it one of its legiti- mate fields of news, is known as the John Day Smith law from the man in whose head it originated. It relates to hangings within the state, and provides that no newspaper shall be represented at any ex- ecution and that no paper shall print any facts about it except the hour of occur renee. Attorney General Clapp has made an examination of the law and pronounced 1t constitutional, and the hanging of Albert Bulow to-day at Little Falls furnishes op portunity for test. The newspapers have arranged to print extended reports of to-day's execution, and they have openly declared that they do not propose to sub init to 90 conspicuous an infringement of their rights without very emphatic pro- t08t. VI OoAoN0 eAo popoAS 0A0 AASAe HAAO that in their action they will be sustained by public sentiment both in and outside the state of Minnesota. The hanging of a criminal is alwaysa matter of public in terest and the public have right to know the details, and any statutory enactment which proposes to prevent their publica- ton is blow at public rights no less than at the private property interests of the newspapers themselves. It is discrim- ination against the legitimate business of journalism and against the right of the people to know what is going on when a human life is being sacrificed to the majesty of law.
 It is refreshing to see the stand taken by the Minnesota papers. Their action wfll be initiated by the New York papers when an opportunity is given to test the law forbidding the publication of details

A NEW YORK paper wants to know why the government is not entitled to as low Q rate for telegraph service as corporation! It is. But as the Western Union will probably take out the difference in in creased tolls to the people it would be in teresting to know where the people are benefited by Wanamaker's saving. Wana- maker has not been noted for any particu- lar regard for the people.
