Respecting Mr.. ParnelI's proposition
for land reform arbitration in Ireland it
is well to await the effect of the sugges-
ton upon Tory politics before conclud-
ing that the Liberal leader has made a
great blunder, or, as some pro-Anglcan
journals argue, has suddenly become be-
reft Of judgment, if not of reason. Moth
ing has been advanced against the propo-
sition itself except on the ground of mere
party policy. And it IS often very good
politics to make a sound and generous
offer to opponents who are trying to
trade on the reputation of generosity
without really deserving it. 1t is not I'M
likely that Mr.. ParnelIs concession may
prove a Greek gift to the Salisbury min
listers, by putting their sincerity to
sharp test or by converting what would
have been only a sham reform, or par
tial one, into a real and complete system
for the i'm provement of the condition of
the occupants Of Irish farms.

Old Judge Fernald, of Santa Bar
bara, has the reputation of being the
politest man in California. He never
loses an opportunity to doff his hat or
to offer some slight attention to way
faring men and women. One day as
he was about to take the train for San
Francisco, he reached the rear steps
of the last car just as they were ap-
preached by young priest.
"After the CLOTH" said the chivalric
judge, stepping back with courtly
bow.
Gray hairs have the preference"
returned the priest with splendid
wave of the hand.
"The church always has prece-
dence," retorted the judge, taking an
other backward step, hat in hand.
"The church follows in the footsteps
of the fathers" replied the priest, in
dicating the way to the steps.
The duel of politeness was not half
through, neither yielding an inch
when the train pulled out, leaving
both bowing and smiling on the plat
form.-Ex.

Attempted Murder.

Galena Gazette: John Handenshield
drives the country delivery wagon OF
Schmid Bros. the Dubuque brewers.
He delivered some beer at LaMott last
Saturday, and on his way home three
men begged ride. Two stood up in
the hind part If the wagon and one
rode on the seat beside the driver.
They had gone but short distance
when one OF the men behind shot Hand
enshield in the back, and the man on
the seat presented a revolver to his
head and demanded bis money. He
gave up the money-$75, when the men
left and the driver drove to Dubuque
and had his wound dressed. Officers
at once started in search of the crimi-
mails, and on Sunday the three were
found and arrested by Sheriff Phillips.
They were found hiding near Center
Grove, about FIVE miles west of Dubu.
que, and near the scone of the robbery.
They are strangers, and are now safe
within the county Jail. Public indigna-
ton against them runs high. The
driver is in a critical condition from
the effects of his wound. His assail-
ants are believed to be the same gang
that burglarized three stores in Wyom.
