esert their great leader in this crisis
for their old-time English enemy. If
they do, woe be to them. The day
they cast out Mr. Parnell from their
midst, the doom of their hopes is
scaled, and the labor of fifty years,
all the effort and the suffering since
the famine year have gone for nought.
Besides the disheartening and
demorahzing effects OF change of
leadership at this time, the absence of
a man to fill the role that Mr.. Parnell
has played must fill every cool OBJ
server with conviction of the I'M
desirability OF change. There are
many able and brilliant iaen in the
Irish Parliamentary party, but there
is only one Parnell. To propose JUS
tin Mccarthy is as it were to suggest
James Russell Lowell for the chief
taincy Of the Republican party in our
own country. Davittis not in Parlia-
ment and is pledged not to go there.
William OiBrien is an enthusiast, a.
wild passionate spirit to whose nature
the reserve, the cool dispassionate
Judgment, the self restraint and the
power of restraining others, which are
the indispensable qualifications OF
parliamentary leadership, are wholly
wanting. Then there are Healey,
Sexton, O'Connor, Dillon-all brave
and brilliant, admirable in oratory or
debate, wise in council and coura-
geous in fight, and still not great
leaders.
Perhaps the truest expression of the
sense of helpIessness with which the
notion of Parnell's retirement fills all |
lovers of Ireland, is to be found in
the suggestion that the leadership
should be entrusted to committee.
There is an old saying that q council
of war never fights. 1t is true. In
war there is room but for one leader
and Providence has given the Irish
people Moses to lead them out of |
their captivity if they will only fol
low him.
If they have wisdom and trust in |
this conjuncture, they will find all |
will go well with them. The man who
oyercame the Phoenix Park disaster,
who crushed the deadly attack of the
Tory press, who disrupted the Eng
fish Liberal party and ralliedits better
part to his standard--for in this fight |
Gladstone is only a follower of Parnell |
will easily live down the conse-
quences Of his own human frailty and
triumphing over sin and wrong will
lead his people to the promised goal
of national Independence

1t has nevertheless, been arduous and ex-
