dented winnings OF about SEC, 900 in less

FRANCE AND THE woRLD's FAIR.
What Archbishop Ireland Lcarned While
In Paris.

In Paris.
ROME, Feb. lS.-In an interview to.
day Archbishop Ireland, Of St. Paul,
who is in the city, said that when in
France he was informed that little in.
terest was taken there in the Chicago
exhibition. Incidents that had occurred
at the Philadelphia and Now Orleans
exhibitions had left an unfavorablo i'm.
preston on the minds OF Frcnchmen.
Nor had the French forgiven the meagre
part taken by the United States in the
Paris exposition.
Tho archbishop further said that n
friend OF his who had the closest rela-
tians with the French government said
the government had complained OF its
inability to obtain either from Wash
ington or Chicago exact information re-
garding the exhibition. Letters, this
friend said, were often never answered,
or were answered only after long de-
lay. When they were answered the re-
plies were seldom us full as they should
be-, Tho Archbishop concluded by de-
claring that something must be done at
once to remove the i'll feeling or other
wise France would be poorly repre-
sented at the fair.

The last hope Of a liberal majority indepen-
dent Of allies is gone with the failure of the
counties Yesterday to show gains for that party.
II now seems that Mr.. Gladstone will have q
difficult task in organizing his government in
such manner as to reconcile conflicting inter
esss- One of his chief dangers, not heretofore
sufficiently noted, is the formation of a labor
party. The election of Burns, the labor leader,
gives ground for the apprehension that such
party viii be formed and will have its own pur-
poses. which may not be the purposes of the
liberals. To the English labor agitator the
cause Of Irish home rule is a triiing matter
about which he does not concern himself in the
least With division among the Irish, with the
radicals Indifferent or hostile and with COM
pact and determined conservative alliance in
front of him Mr.. Gladstone will need all Of his
old-time vigor and fertility Of resources to
maintain himself and his canse before the world

most interesting since the Psssage of the re-
form bill.

Every shade of opinion has been represented
in the discussions of the assessment question in

published by The STAR. Anch of the difference
of opinion seems to arise from the widely vary
ing noticrs Of those engaged in the discussion

sessment- There seems 10 be also some differ
ences of opinion a. to the results of the work of
the assessors. some holding that the valuations
are not too high-in fact. claiming that in many
cases they are too low-while great majority

IL would be q costly error to delay much
loager legislation providing for the extension
OF streets and avenues, according to the plan Of
the city, into that portion Of the District lying
without the city limits. But, as The STAR has
endeavored to show, IL would be still greater
blunder to pass a Law which would deny all
claim upon the federal government to bear q
share Of the cost Of such extensions, and leave
the expense to be borne entirely by the people
of the District. The argument which seems to
be urged in support of this proposition is that
the cost should be borne by those directly
benefited, and the intimation is made that land
spectators would be the chief benefciaries.
Undoubtedly the city a whole would be
greatly benefited by an extension that would
be symmetrical. The facts of the case, how
ever, tend to show that men who have land for
sale do not themselves look upon a plan that
would take a large part Of their land for wide
streets, avenues andreservations. as one promis-
ins immediate profit to them. The disposition
of SPECTATORS who have only their own interests
hf view appears to favor narrow streets that
will leave more land for sale, and one great
reason for the prompt passage Of the pending
bill is to secure q permanent plan before such
SPECTATORS have had a chance to so cut up the
face Of the country that, to accomplish the OBJ
jet sought by the bin, would require practically
the REPEATING Of a city. As The STAR has
urged and as is urged by a report on the sub
jet made by Mr.. Hemphin in the Fifty-frst
Congress, the project is one of national
character. The main object is to preserve and
extend the plan Of the city adopted by Presi-
dent Washington; a plan in which streets,
avenues and reservations are laid down mon a
large scale because they were intended for the
grand capital of q mighty nation For the
federal government now to leave the compile
ton Of this work, so well begun and upon which
30 much has been expended, to the haphazard
Of local needs and of local resources would be
inexcussble folly.
