While 1t was generally conceded that
the late Rosebery government was weak
and unable TO accomplish anything, it is
at the same time conceded that the whole

When So sterling, able and popular a

his favoring local option law, it shows
that the liquor interest is mighty power

Years ago Gladstone picked out the
young Lord Rosebery as the coming man
and future great Liberal leader. He
became a Liberal leader. but his leader
ship ended in dismal failure. He proved
to be unequal to the occasion. Now it is
predicted that Henry Asquith is the Moses
who will lead the Liberal party out OF
the wilderness, and it is not unlikely the
prediction may prove true. Asquith' 5

1t would be a feather in the cap OF the
Pacific coast if the national Republican
convention should be held in San Fran
cisco. The chances are. however, that 1t
will not come so far West Buffalo, Pitts
burg and Chicago ask for ii, with the
chances in favor OF the latter. The free
silver issue will probably prevent the
convention being held west Of the Missis-
sippi river. The time will come when the
Coast can claim the convention as mat
ter of right. We are afraid that the
Christian Endeavorers are all that San
Francisco can count on for some time TO
come. They don't furnish so much fun
as a crowd of political delegates. but at
least an opportunity will be offered TO
show the country that there are places on

with the Tories having q majority over

OF hearing much OF home rule for some

the late elections, have predicted that 1t

ten years or more. The Irish themselves

John Morley. one of the most earnest and
purest minded of the English friends OF
Ireland, has been laid low. largely
through the efforts OF the very men he
has been working for. Now there IS
really no grea, leader TO take up the
work, and even IL there were IL is not
probable that much could be accomplished
in view of the overwhelming strength of
the government.
IL is not at all unlikely that the Tories
may now carry out their old policy OF re-
ducing Ireiand's representation TO what
she is entitled by her population. At
present she has 103 seats In parliament.
but her population has been gradually de-
creasing and now representation strictly
proportionate to population would give
her but eighty members In the house of
commons. Such a move would no doubt
result in agitation and uproar on the part
OF the Irish Nationalists. as the present
number OF parliamentary representatives,
was guaranteed by the union, but such
agitation would probably only add to Tory
intolerance and give them strength In
their determination to take the irish
question out of politics by making the
Irish quota in the house smaller and less
troublesome. With Irish representation
reduced so materially and its effectiveness
as a balance-of-power party taken away.
there would be little hope for any home
rule legislation for years.
Self-government for Ireland is not TO be
thought of so long as the Irish themselves
act as they have. The Irish party is spit
I'D into cliques and factions. can agree on
nothing and only reflects discredit on the
cause IL represents. Friends of Ireland in
foreign countries recognize this and will
be lukewarm and chary about giving as
sistance so long as the pickering and
wrangling continues. Already the Irish
Nationalist of Boston have absolutely
refused to contribute on the ground that
what they give viii be used not for the
great cause OF Irish emancipation. but
rather to promote personal interests and

Irish leaders within their own party.
True love for Ireland's permanent inter

sonal ambitions. and where there should
