largest possible concessions were made II them.
The amnesty agitation illustrates the dang r.
now confronting the IIomc-Rulc movement.
Mr.. Morley has made a partial clearance oi
political prisoners. but has stopped short Of
abs lutte surrender. Thereupon Mr. Redmond
and few other extremists demand complete
amnesty as the Indispensable condition Tor
their support Of the proposed llome-lihie Dill.
That may appear strong fighting policy u

Mr. Dillon appeals TO the enlightened sell
interest of Ireland when he deprecates the Ill
advised attempt 10 force the amnesty question
upon the Government prematurely. lie SHOWS
sobrety Of Judgment when he declares that
other issues must be suborClinated To Home

The Irish people have enjoyed for 50 long
period the sympathy and good wishes OF FOR

are in danger of taking it for granted that
the public opinion Of the world will always

recognized the weight of that opinion in de-
termining England's obligation t. ann the Irish
PEOPLE with the privileges OF legislative au-
tonomy lie has declared it to be impractlclblc

land by force and in defiance OF the aspirations
of the people and Of the conscience of ChriSten-

conditions Of public opinion in the modern
world and has made great personal sacrifices
in his attempt t. reconcile England 10 Home

Senator Hills attempt to get the bill repeal
ing the Silyer-Puchase act taken up yesterday
was a failure as Senator Sherman and others
had expected. but the adverse vOte-42 to 23
was larger than had been looked for. 1t
would be an error, however. to accept this vote
as indicating the temper Of the Senate on the
subject. Several Senator'S voted against the
consideration of the BILL although they are in
favor of stopping the purchase of silver bullion,
for they feel that any attempt to pass the
repeating act is foredoomed to defeat. Tn
fortunately. the chances for anti-silver legisla-
ton in the Senate a, it will be after March
are less fav, rable than in the Senlta rs it now
is constituted.

A biz was introduced at Albany last evening
authorizing the removal Of the City Hall from
its present site and its re-electiOn elsewhere
within the city limits This is measure OF
profound interest TO the people of New-fOrk.
The officials bent on demJlishing the City Hall
are evidently alarmed bv the strength of the
opposition to their project. and feel the need
of fOltifying themselves with law passed to
legalize what they at first intended to do with
ont spe.ill authority. No sufficient reason for
the removal Of this historic landmark exists
and the bill should be promptly killed

Governor Flower has vetoed the bill legaliz-
ing all the illegal expenditures made in Brock
kn in connection with the Columbus celeba-
ton, and by so doing has placed himself on
the side of honest government in a way that

finds the bill of doubtful constitutonality, pro-
nounces it adverse to the public interests, and

wording il would prevent the prosecution Of

ist,red fitting rebuke to the men who control
the Legislature. His action will be heartily
commended in Brooklyn and throughout the
