thony Falls, will regret the time spent
within those four big walls. Manager
Brackett has not said great deal about
what will be there, preferripg to let the
show talk for itself later on. Mr..
Bracket has taken great interest in
the exposition and he assures the pub
lie through the press that Minneapolis
will have reason to congratulate herself
on the exposition of 1891. There will
be many new features this year that
we're never seen this country before,
and had we the space to enumerate them
all. the public would become so worked
up over them, that it could not wait un-
til opening day to see what is to be seen.
We know that as Minneapolitans we owe
a duty to our exposition, and as news
paper, to our readers to say only that
which we know to be a fact. We are
satisfied that our exposition this year
will surpass anything we have ever seen
here. Now we again ask our readers
who live outside the city to take advan-
tage of the cheap rsilroad rates, and
visit the Twin Cities when the state
fair and Minneapolis Exposition opens
for them all. The people of the Twin
Cities are hospitable people, and are
always anxious to make it pleasant for
their friends whenever they visit them.
The state fair will be good one. The
fact that Hon. ID. M. Clough is presi-
dent of the state fair association is suffi-
c1ent proof that 1t will be the best ever
held. The people of Minneapolis would
appreciate these treats great deal bet
ter, were they given but once in five
years. Given every year as they are, at
an enormous expense, we come to look
upon these treats as affairs of little
moment, but we should look upon them
differently. Now let us all turn out and
see tho state fair and Minneapolis Expo
sition. 1T is duty we owe these enter
prises, and we will not be citizens worthy
of the name if we dc not do our duty.

In recent issue of the Boston Pilot
appears the following which will be
very gratifying to all Christian people
familiar with the life of Father Damien:
81 saw the other day in the sculptor's
studio here in London, says q CORES
poDdent, the great cross Of red granite
which IL to be sent out to MolOkai and
erected over Father Damien's grave.
The massive Kettle cross, covered with
Runic characterization, rests on a solid
square base. on one side of which is in
serted a white marble medallion aMor-
trait of the MARTYR of Molokai. An in-
scriptlon, deeply cut in letters of gold,
tells that it is erected by the people of
England to the memory of Father JOS
eph Damien de Veuster; then comes
the text from the gospel of st. John,
summing up Damien's life in the WORDS
"Greater love than this hath no man
shown. that man should give up his
friend" The monument mas been
erected by the joint contributions of
both Protestant and Catholic. The
Prince of Wales was the first subscriber
and q clergyman Of the church OF Eng
land was the foremost in the movement
for it's erection. Better still. the ion.
preston created here in England by the
heroism of this Belgi an priest has I'M
doubtedly helped many converts into
the church." We are much pleased to
know that this great monument is al
most completed. If any man deserved
remembrance it is the late Father
Damien. He died for the lepers, and
for all that. many so called ministers of
the gospel we're charitable enough to
publish to the world after bis death,
that he was an imposter. ''By their
works We shall know them" We need
say no more. The MARTYR Damien has
gone to his glorious reward, and we are
glad to see that Protestant England
does not forget his many acts of self.

UBRIEN AND DILLON.

John Dillon and William CBrien
have been released from prison where
they served term of six months each
for telling the tenants on the Smith
Barry estate to clothe and feed them
selves before paying the landlord. For
this and similar acts--' 'inciting to vlo-
lence." as Balfour termed it, they were
arrested and sent to prison. Their
terms of imprisonment expired a few
days ago, and Galway, where they were
incaroerated, turned out to welcome
these distinguished men on their return
from prison. They had scarcely breath
ed the air outside the prison walls once,
when both without any ceremony de.
olared themselves very strongly against
Mr.. Parnell. They politely declined
to say anything personal, contenting
themselves with admitting that Parnelps
tactics were decidedly adverse TO home
rule progress. MIR. Parnell sought to
open up negotiations with theta touch
ing the question of leadership, but both
declined to have anything more to say
On that subject, at least SO far as Mr..
Parnell himself was concerned. This
Was quite severe blow to Parnell, and
caused many of his followers to desert
him, Many of them had expected that
MI. O'Buen would meet MIR. Parnell in
any event, and the formers refusal to
meet the ex-leader was rather unex-
pected setback. Parnell has neverthe-
less strong following, and will not
surrender until the last. What he ex-
poets to gain by his present course is
difficult to comprehend. The refusal OF
the ex.prisoners to talk with Mr.. Parne]l
on the political situation means that the
anti Parnellites propose to go it alone.
This of course will result IN the seleo-
ton of John Dillon to succeed Justin
Mccarthy. The latter wants to get out
and is personally disposed to champion
billions appointment. Dillon, however,
does not want the honor, but might be
persuaded to accept it, if by doing so he
thinks he could do the position justice.
John Dillon is a very able man, but ex-
ceptionally modest, and may yet need "a
great deal Of coaxing to step into Mr..
MoCarthy's shoes. Mr.. O'Brien, as we
prophesied in our last issue, will enter
the literary world, unless persuaded by
his friends to do something else. He IN
company with Mr.. Dillon visited the
house of commons last Monday evening"
and were given splendid reception.
Both men occupied their old seats, but
took no part in the subjects under dis
cuss,on. We hope to see these int1uen-
t,al Irishmen do something to bring the
warning factions together.

BOsr( N REPUBLIC: 1.-THE Gladst0n-
ian victory in the north or Wisbech div
ision of Cambrldgeshire adds to the
conclusive proof already furnished that
the present Tory Wing government
does not represent British opinion. The
Wisbech division has been regarded as
safely Conservative in politics. 1t had
majority Of about 1000. We pointed
out last week that perhaps the Liberal
union seceders hsd returned to their
allegiance, and intimated that this
coupled with the fact that home rule
had become very popular with English
constituencies might make Wisbech
good fighting ground. But we did not
anticipate such sweeping victory as
that which was recorded on Friday of
last week.

The National Federation of America
has issued an address to the people of
America on the dangers that beset the
Irish cause. We quote the following to
show what a definite stand the Fedora
ton has taken against Parnell: par
nell can be no longer regarded as pos
sible leader of the Irish movement.
Never did any nation offer greater op'
portunity to inscribe an honored name
on the page of history than ireland
offered him in her latest conflict. but
he has thrown it from his grasp un~
priced. She made him chief and Law
1shed honors upon him; he was the Gen.
tire of her country, the connecting link
of all her political forces. She finds
herself mistaken. He has followed
other courses, and left her power
weakened and her councils divided. It
is generally so when the destinies OF a
nation are centred in an individual
The people of Ireland must lay aside
hero worship and one.man power. We
had hoped that from the force of recent
events and in spirit of true patriotism
Mr.. Parnell would have retired, Again
we have been disappointed, and we now
feel that longer silence would be Gull
pable We can no longer conceal from
ourselves that he has yielded to malign
influences that threaten the destruction
of the Irish cause. We are on the eve
of a general election. tits conceded on
all sides that the question Of home rule
will be settled fayorably or adversely by
this election for another generation at
least. The advance and enlightened
Thought of England is with us. Only
an obstinate aud autocratic aristocracy
is against us. We invite all who SYM
pathize with the cause to lend it their
assistance; to enroll freely in the Irish
National Federation, and all it's ranks
quickly, as the time is short" There
can be little doubt about what this ad-
dress means. Parnell must 60 and the
Irish people who stood by him for the
past 16 years are forced through no
fault of theirs to cast him off. 1t is
indeed too bad that such brilliant and
energetic man as he should have come
to such miserable end. Had he not
figured in the O'Shea divorce case he
would still be on top, but bis followers
to-day are few and Parnell has no one
to blame for his political death but
himself. ireland must not forget In
her present troubles that America will
not send her any pecuniary assistance
as long as her people are disunited, and
until factions become an unknown
quantity the people of Ireland must
dance and pay the fiddler out of their
own pockets. We caunot see how it is
possible for Parnell to gain his lost
ground, and the only manly course for
him to pursue is to retire from the pol
itical battlefield. Better for him had
he done 80 long ago, but better now
than never. But if he means what he
SAYS, and we are sure he does, he will
contest every seat made vacant from
now until the great general election.
and that means great deal for Ireland.
This will mean several doubtful seats
turned over to the Tories, and smaller
representation OF Irish Nationalists in
the next parliament. We trust, how
ever, that Parnell will reconsider his
determination to stay in the field, and
will retire at once.

CHARLES w. JOHNSON, chief clerk OF
the United States Senate, unbosomed
himself to representative OF the Min"
neapolis Tribune the other day on the
matter of congressional candidates in
Hennepin county. Charley said Mayor
Winston would be the Democratic
nominee; while it looked very much as
it Loren Fletcher would be the choice
of the Republicans from this district.
Well Charley may be right, but when
he says that MIR. Fletcher would beat
Mayor Winston in such race, be is
saying good deal. We all know that
lust one year ago the Republicans OF
MINNEAPOLIS did all they could to per-
suade Mr.. Fletcher to run for mayor,
but he would not. He saw in Mayor
Winston an able opponent, and knew
of course that he (Fletcher) could not
be elected. He would not run, and he
was wise for keeping out of the mayor
ality contest. Now. the men who
voted for P. B. Winston for mayor
would gladly vote for him for congress,
and where would the Republican can
didate find himself then? Should
Mayor Winston consent to accept a
congressional nomination a year hence,
he would be elected. He has made
better mayor than was anticipated, and
the whole community looked for much
from bin. He has made by far, the
lest mayor Minneapolis ever had, and
the man who can do as Mayor Winston
is doing in bis Office to-day. is a man
among men. His administration is
everything that we could desire, and
the man whom it does not please is a
