THE IRISH ARRESTS.

The Salisbury Government rcvcliS TO the
barren policy of arbitrary arrests under the Co.
erciOn Acts. This j., logical a. Il matter vi
Ministerial policy, if it be incNpcdicnt political
". That Government was carried into power
several years ago by reaction against Mr..
Giadstoncs Home Rule proposals. Ii did not
receive from the constituencies u positive man
date to govern Ireland hy force but practically
that was what was implied by the rejection
OF Homo Rule As the history, not of one gen
Grafton alone but Of many centuries, has shown
that Ireland, so long as it is not allowed to
govern itself, must be ruled by force, the fail
uro of MIR. Gadst mes policy of reconciliation
involved necessarily rcvcrsiOn to arbitrary
methods which have always proved unsncccS,-
full. Stringent Coercion laws were enacted as
soon as the Ministry was organized. These
have been alternately enforced with r;gor and
partially suspended. The end Of the Ministerial
term is approaching, and consistency requires
q brave display of vigor in governing Ireland
with what Is known in Tory circles rs inlleXiblc
trmncss. Two of the most active leaders, Dill
lon and O'l}ricn, are accordingly arrested on
the eve of their departure for America.
The pretext for these arrests is alleged i'll
element of tenants to refuse to pay their rents.
The details are immatcrial. since under the
Coercion Acts Mr.. l}alfour at his discretion can
take up printed report of almost any speech
delivered by an Irish agtator and discover an
arbitrary warrant in it of some kind for his de-
iention in jail What is really important is, not
the character of the offence in this instance, but
rather the sheer inability of one of the ablest
Coercion administrations to find any remedy
for Ireland except force-that which Mr.. Bright
in his best days pronounced no remedy at all.
Practically, it is confession of failure on tho
part of the Ministry to govern the island in
any other way. Perhaps it is fortunate that
the Government il reduced to this sorry plight.
