GOOD UNIONIST TACTICS.

Under Mr. Chamberain's leadership the
Unonists have come to their senses and taken
the right attitude toward the Home Rule bill.
While they are opposed to the general principle
of the bill, and in the last resort will vote
against it, they are striving to modify and
amend it by imposing restrictions upon the
powers Of the Irish Parliament. These tactics
are not to be hastily condemned as an insdi-
OILS form of obstruction. 1t is a legitimate
function of the minority arrayed in opposition
to the Government to render legislation to
which they are radically adverse as innOcuous
as possible The Unionists have introduced
scores of amendments with that end in view,
and while nearly all have been voted down, Mr.
Gladstone has accepted several Of them with
out a division. While he has been unwilling
to amend the bill by incorporating in it Union
ist phrases which were solely designed to iri-
tate the Irish members and to embarrass the
Government, he has adopted useful suggestions
which tended to render the Home Rule scheme
clearer and more ineligible. The Opposition
have taken the proper course and have strength
enod their position before the country.
The effect of Mr.. Chamberlain's adrot and
conservative procedure is to proong the debate
in the committee and temporarily to block Home
Rule This is undenabls. The third clause Is
still under consideration, and If the same tao

method OF delaying the passage of the bill and

Tho trial of Lizzie Borden made some prog
ress yesterday, the opening address Tor The
prosecution being made and one witness being
examined. The jury were then taken to Fall
River, where they made careful inspection OF
the house in which the Bordens were murdered
and its surroundings. In his opening speech
MIR. Moody described in detail the facts Of the
case which are familiar to the public The
prosecution may have some surprises IN store
in the testimony to be presented, but so far as
now appears the jury will be asked to convict
ON the facts which have been fully told IN the
newspapers from time to time. If there is no
evidence in addition, it is hard to understand
why the trial was put of until nearly year
after the double tragedy occurred.
An Unexpectedly carly decision was arrived
at in the Laidlaw-Sage suit yesterday, Judge
Andrews dismissing the case on the ground that
Mr.. Laidlaw had not proved that Mr.. Sage was
responsible for the injuries which he sustained
ar had by his action removed Mr. Laidlaw from

sut was novel and unoommonly interesting

rain in the lowering of the temperature, which
