The Bill Occupies the Attention of the
scnate-Its Provisions.
WASHINGTON, D. O., Feb, l9.-The
bill which is intended to secure the
construction of the Nicaragua ship
canal occupied the attention Of tho
senate to-day. 1t provides that 8 per
cent bonds Of the company to an amount
not exceeding Sl09000,000 shall be
guaranteed, principal and interest, by
the government of the United States,
these bonds TO be issued according as
money is actually paid out and expend-
ed by the company in the construction
OF the canal.
The government is then to own the
capital stock Of the company with the
exception OF twelve millions OF it, which
Is to be retained by the company and
except the shares to be delivered to tho
governments OF Nicaragua and Costa
Rica. The Importance Of this guarantee
by the government was demon.
strated in a speech by Mr..
Frye, who undertook to show that
the work would with the guaranteed
be finally completed at o cost Of one
hundred million and that its fixed
charges would be only S5,OOO,OOO year
(outside OF sinking fund.-, whereas,
without the guarantee), the cost would
be not less than two hundred million
dollars and its fixed charges fourteen
millions year.
The Nicaragua bill went over till to-.
morrow and after an executive session
the senate adjourned.

admit that parliamentary supremacy
depends upon the retention OF Irish
members, yet quite admit that the re.
tention OF members has great practical
Importance because it visibly exhibits
that supremacy in manner intettigtbte
to the people, Besides it gives Ireland
a voice and a full voice in all imperial
matters, Hear, hear.
Ireland is to be represented here
fully, that is my first postulate, My
second postulate is that Ireland is TO be
invested with separate powers, subject,
no doubt, to imperial authority, yet
still MS we must from experience prac-
tiCally separate certain independent
power has been done in other parts OF
tine empire, Ireland Is to be endowed
with separate powers over Irish allairs.
Then the question before US is: Is she,
or is che not to vote SO strongly upon
matters purely BritishP lpropose this
question in the true parliamentary
iorm-aye or no. There are reasons
both way. We cannot cut them off in
aImanner perfectly clean and clear from
those questions. We cannot find m
absolutely accurate line OF cleavage be,
tween questions that are imperial
questions and those that arc Irish
questions. [Cheers, ] do not see that
ii is possible to exclude Irish members
from voting on great subjects.
NO PROTECTIVE TARIFF,
Mr.. Gladstone continued on this
point at length. He then said; "We
provide that revenue levied in Ireland
shall be revenue really belonging to
Ireland-that ia. revenue from
goods consumed in Ireland. 1t
is not so with the customs.
With the customs there Is q
large debt from ireland to this
country. Itis not so large as involved
in the case Of excise, but still it comes
up to several hundreds OF thousands.
II we adopted the method OF q quota
we should expose Irish finance to large
and inconvenient shocks from
changes introduced in English
budgets. Imperial reasons also would
perhaps make it necessary for us TO do
what we are, think, very unwilling to
do-namely, to give imperial office
a meddling and intervening power
in relations TO Irish affairs.
With regard to customs we propose to
leave them In our hands, SO that there
can be no difficulty in adapting contri-
buttons, 80 far as customs are concern
ed"
Mr. Gladstone closed as follows;
"Let me entreat you-if it were my
latest BREATH l would SO entreat you
let the dead bury their dead, and cast
behind your former recollections OF by
gone evils; cherish love and sustain
one another through all the vicissitudes
of human affairs in times that are to
come" Prolonged Liberal cheering, ]
At the conclusion OF his speech Mr..
Gladstone was overwhelmed with con-
gratulations.

BIODGETIED.

The foreign born citizens who have
been blodgetted of Of the voting lists are
beginning to ask where they are at. Mr..
Blodgett used to be good Prohibitionist,
but he always had an eye to the main
chance.
Since he has deserted the Prohibition
lists and become a Republican Federal,
fourth class, Johnny Davenport he ex-
ploits himself in great glory.
But some Repu ublicsns fail to appreciate
his activ ty. Old men OF OF foreign brit
who have voted the Republican ticket ali
the time since their naturalization cannot
see why a youngster like Blodgett can
force them to prove their citizenship
which they acquired before the boy was
born.
They may vote for the Republican
State ticket, bat we predict that they VIII
elect a General Assembly that will crush
young Blodgett.

Mr.. o'REILLY OF WOONsoskET.

There are two O'Reillys. One Is our
own Frank Of the Fifth Ward, an Alder
man who has held his own with the Re-
publican city government and who has
often and again made them sue for peace
at any price. He has stood alone and has
shown a vigor of intellect, rough-shod
though 1t may be, that has caused crafty,
and polished, and crime. abetting Repub-
licans to vince at his shafts of seemingly
unreasonable actions. He Is the Demo-
cratic fighter In the Board OF Aldermen;
In fact, we can truthfully say for the
purpose OF comparison that he is a short

honesty in order to distinguish him rom

Now, Frank O'Reilly, our Alderman,
was soldier in the British army at Bal.

part in the Crimean war. Warriors of
that kind wear their hair short because
they have been SO trained.
But F. Long haired O'Reilly OF woon-
socket was also a kind Of a warrior. In
the first place he liked the drama and
tragedy. He loved Shakespeare Hamlet
and his Cassus, and his Brutus; he also
loved his Romeo. Then he became an or

BAlFnUR'S PLAN.

The Conservative party In the House OF
Commons under the lead OF Mr.. Balfour
have entered upon n course OF obstruction
in relation to all matters pertaining to
the government OF Ireland. Monday
night, for The eighth time this session,
Mr.. Balfour moved a vote of cepsure on
the government and for the eighth time
the opposition was handsomely defeated.
The course OF obstruction in this case
does not run smooth and shows that a ma.
jority OF the British government mean to
do what is right toward her suffering
sister. Mr.. Balfour, by his attack on the
Irish Executive, added nothing new to
what is already known-bitterness and
vindictiveness alone characterized his
speech. Mr.. Morley's reply was what
was expectsd-a pure and simple vindi-
cation OF his administration.
The fight along this line may be kept
up all Summer but the result will be the
same and the victory in favor Of Home
Rule will be all the more and more bril-
lisntly conspicuous. Mr.. Balfour does
not sit any too easily In the seat he now
occupies and the signs of rebellion are
now and again rampant In his camp. II
his party breaks over the contest that Is
now being carried on and Irish vindica-
tion accomplished one grand shout of
victory will be raised by Ireland's friends
everywhere.
