nUV MR. EPH1RDT RESIGNED"

Mr. Erhardt, who has resigned his place Us
tbe Collector of the Port Of New York for the
excellent and uncompromising reason that there
was nothing else for him to do, is endeavoring
TO nut himself in the light of hero and
martyr. This is highly absurd on Mr. ErhardtS
mart though in that respect it is Characteristic
The Republican party honored him with an
office of great trust and responsibility. 1t
supposed him to be Republican, believer IN
its policies, anxious for its success in admins
tration. This was tho view we entertained OF
him. and the view we presented to our READERS
But Mr.. Erhardt has employed the opportunities
and powers of his Office to create party as
cords. to hold unworthy Democrats in the oihces
they had improperly got under the Cleveland
Administration. and to obstruct the policies OF
the Treasury Department. When he first be-
gan to do these things we gave him some good
advice in a kindly way, and he ought to have
taken it, But he preferred to keep the com
many and to heed the counsels Of those who
were hostile to the policies he was put in Office
70 enforce, and he soon caused himself to De
looked upon us an odd combination OF Mugwump
pharisee and Tammany Boss The result IS
that he has resigned"
Mr.. Erhardt has thought himself called upon
to give out another and different notion or
this incident "The recent policy of the Treas
ury Department" he says, "has been to con-
troll the details of the customs administration
at this port from Washington, at the dctatlon
of private individual having no official re-
sponsbility." 1t is open to suspicion that refer
ence Is here made to the Hon. Thomas &. PIatt.
We have no commission to speak for Mr.. PIatt
but if he has been doing things that have rem
dered Mr. Erhardt uncomfortable in the Tam
many -Mugwump policy he has pursued, we are
sure the Republican party will judge his offence
lightly What Mr. Erhardt calls dication"
we should describe as narrative OF cold
facts" The Republicans of New-York have no
desire to see the Custom House run as tender
to Tammany Hall under a sham Civil Service
reform. If Mr. Platt has told this to Secretary
Foster, he has told the honest truth The Dem
ocratio and Mugw,lmp papers which are mourn
ing Erhardts departure mourn not for him nor
for the service, but solely because they know
that a large quantity of Democratic rubbish will
soon be swept from the Custom House, as it
should have been swept long ago.

ENGLISH OPTIMISM.

Lord SaiSburys optimism respecting Irish
affairs was eOnspcuously displayed at the Lord
Mayors banquet. For five years, he declared
the island haG been governed resOlutey and
respect for public law had followed, the people
being convinced that resistance was futile. From
the Tory point of view he is right If the
Government be willing to take the response
biity of governing Ireland by force legislation
il will always be wiser to be firm and courageous
rather than lax and timorous in executing the
laws. Mr. Bafour has made full use of the
powers with which he has been armed by
Parliament, and the island is now more tran
qul and is governed in more orderly way than
it has been since the outbreak of the Home
Rule agitation under Mr.. Pagnell in 1873 The
Chief Secretary has been successful in admin
ister;ng the last Coercion Act. If he has not
inspired a feeling of respect for the law, he has
at least overcome overt resistance to IT, With
the disappearance of lawlessneSs in Ireland there
has been an abandonment of obstruction meth
DDS in Parliament. Lord Salisbury has super
fetal grounds for his optimism. There are
however, other considerations which he is very
careful to exclude from his argument.
Mr. Balfour has shown an inhexibe will in
enforcing INc ADtIClOH tCti DuV Nv ~ not inc
first Chief Secretary who has known how 10
govern Ireland reSOutely. Coercion acts have
been vigorously applied in many instances Mr..
Forster in recent times was an expert in this
line but force has never yet proved remedy.
The Irish people have been compelled very
often to respect the vigor and frmness with
which these force bills have been administered
by English officials, but they have never been
able to overcome their prejudice against coer-
cion as principle. What reasons can Mr. Bal
four and Lord Salisbury give for their belief
that public law to-day commands the moral sup
port of the Irish people? Simply their success
in breaking up the Plan of Campaign impris-
oning Members of Parliament and intmdatng
agitators. If they have really affected Irish
opinion and inspired feeling Of respect for
public law the imprisoned leaders when re-
leased on the expiration Of their terms Of SEN

nonnces n permanent cure for the agrarian
troubles Of many generations. That was what
Mr.. Gladstone said in. 1870 when an earlier
Land Act was passed, but it proved to be not
even temporary palliative, but rather an
active irritant. The inherent weakness of ali
these remedial land measures and coercion pol
icies is that they are English and not Irish
schemes of legislation. 1t is the work OF Eng
lisb lawmakers, and it is forced upon Ireland
