THE latest dispatches say that the opin-
ion is gaining ground in England and Ire
land that Parnell is insane. The RECORD
UNION claims no gift of prophecy, but it
said soEe time ago that ParnelPs actions
were not such as would characterize man
in full possession of his reason. No shrswd
politician would ever permit himself to be
made such an exhibition of as has Parnell
within the last fortnight, nor would a
leader with weli-balanced mind so offend
the proprieties as he is reported to have
done, nor indulge in such diatribes and
scurrilous assaults. Very true, his oppo.
nents have not been much more discreet
if we except Justin Mccarthy, who ha:
retained the dignity that should charac-
terize leader.
Sacramento daily record-union. [volume] (Sacramento [Calif.]) 1875-1891, 1890-12-22
THE REHR1Na SEA MATTER.

The dispatches intimate that the Presi-
dent is about to send to Congress special
message on the Behring Sea difficulty, that
will indicate his belief that an amicable
settlement with Great Britain is unlikely.
The impression has gained ground gener-
ally that this is one of the cases in which
arbitration could not cut figure, for the
reason that there can be no yielding on
the part of the United States without
abandoning our claim of title to the ma
rine territory, and that arbitration will
mean some concession on our part, in the
outcome. We are of the opinion that the
people will coincide with the President,
that the only thing to do is to enforce our
laws against poaching by the Canadian
seal takers, and then if Great Britain re-
sists. substantial basis will be laid for
future negotiations for settlement. The
nation does not want war; the cause of the
trouble is not worth it in money; but at
the same time, the position of the United
States must be maintained or we viii suffer
national humiliation, and an essential con.
sideration of the purchase from Russia will
be destroyed There are no keener politi-
clans on the globe, nor better informed in
ternational lawyers than those of Russia
and it is understood that with one voice
thew declare that the American position is
sound one. The course England has
pursued in this matter has not been to her
credit nor has it done anything but injury
We have permitted her fishers to unre-
STRANGELY take seals for nearly two years,
with the result, the Smithsonian faculty
saw. of putting in imminent peril the ex-
istence Of the fisheries. Indeed, the Eng
lish have taken the seal in mid-ocean to
an extent that threatens the extinction Of
the animals. Unless we now protect the
fisheries We will, in two seasons more, have
none TO protect. The attitude OF the Pres
ident is therefore in line with the thought
of the American people, and if conflict
is precipitated, the country blameworthy
for it will be Great Britain.

THE Indians who wish to provoke the
tribes to war are shrewd lot. They have
now resorted to the device of having the
story circulated that the ghost of Sitting
Bull has appeared, fitting from hill to
hill and reckoning the tribes on TO the
Bad Lands. Should the redskins believe
the wild tale, they will not be more to
blame than some of our own people who
have been led to foolish actions guided by
no stronger reasons-as witness the craze
at Oakland year ago, when some hum
dreds fled to the mountains under the de-
fusion that a tidal wave was to engulf the
valleys, because woman declared that it
had been revealed to her that such was to
be the fate of goodly part of this fair
State.

THEY finish up their criminals in rapid
order in France. Eyraud and Bompard
were found guilty, and within FIVE minutes
after the verdict was rendered the first was
sentenced to death and the latter to twenty
years imprisonment at hard labor. The
probability is that Eyraud's head will
leave his shoulders within the next forty
eight hours, and that Bompard is already
on her way to her place Of Imprisonment.
In the United States such criminal as
Eyraud would enjoy couple of years
more of life under delays OF the law. And
who knows but that if fate had cast his lot
in California in these days, Eyraud might
not, what with appeals new trials, insanity
lodges and the like, have got off scot free.
