THE SITUATION IN IRELAND.

An anonymous writer in the West
minister Review discusses from an Eng
lish standpoint, 1.-THE Situation IN Ire
land" and he does it 30 ingeniously
that it is difficult matter to get at his
motive. He reviews the agitation con.
dncted by Parnoll, and contends that
the GROUND gained then has not been
entirely lost He tells the British press
bluntly and frankly that in ast u ming
that factional differences have stlfed
the national aspirations they are wo-
fully mistaken. He contends that
whenever constitutional agitations fail
the failure is closely followed by start
ling resuscitstion of the physical force
elements. Hence he argues that it Is
for England's advantage to help the
constitutional movement rather than to
hinder or check it. In summing up
this proposition the writer says: I'm
fact, it may be said, during the past
twenty years there have teen two move
ments in Ireland existing side by side.
There was at first very large section
of the people who placed no reliance on
parliamentary methods. They believed
that the misgovernment of Ireland
could only be put an end to by force OF
arms. This view will OF course strike
many as chimerical and foolish one.
Yet no one can doubt that it existed.
and that it has deeper hold today on
tho minds OF the people than at any
period since the collapse of the Feuian
movement"
Our anonymous chronicler further
states that there is disposition among
the extremists of the physical force sec
ton to throw John Redmond overheard
and to repudiate his leadership. He
instances the municipal elections in
Dublin during the year as the best evil
dence of the decadence of Mr.. Red
mond's power with the revolutionary
masses, In these elections the candi-
dates named by Mr.. Redmond and Mr..
Harrington were badly beaten. These
reverses, he says, have clipped Mr..
Redmonds wings in Parliament and
have forced him to play waiting
game.

Of snow on the ground. The Kootenai
is such wonderful country that if half
the truth were told Of its mineral wealth
it would not be credited. A recent find
that has excited great deal of atten-

spring, now known as the Red Blanket,

Spencer's bridge on the Canadian Pa
cific. The water in solution runs 49,. 2
pounds of copper to 200 gallons, and
10000 gallons day come tumbling

There is going to be an interesting

Goldsmith taken out in favor Of his
wife. He, his wife and their three chill
dren were burned to death. His brother,
Louis Goldsmith Of Cbateaugay, N. Y,
was appointed administrator of his es.
tate by Surrogate Arnold on Monday.
Goldsmith left two otEef brothers and
a niece.
The question is whether Goldsmith
or his wife died first. Relatives Of his
wife contend that the money comes to
them and that the administrator Of her
husband will have nothing to admins
ter upon. and they say they will have
All administrator Of her estate appointed
shortly to take charge Of the insurance
money.
Counsel who have been consulted
about the case say that under common
law decisions the law would presume
that the husband, being probably stron-
ger than woman, would survive the
wife. Decisions which are pointed out
in support Of this view were cases where
q man and woman had gone down with
q vessel. Il was said that there is no
such case on record with regard to a
fire and that the reasoning applicable to
drowning would not pertain to fire.

physical characteristics, it was said,

on which date, if the records are to be
relied upon, the frst town meeting OF
the taxpayers OF the town was held
1747. During its existence OF nearly
$50 years ths town has always held an
important place in the history OF the
State, and il is but fitting that such an
event be appropriately observed by the
citizens. It has been suggested that
the day be marked by exercises held in
the public schools of the town, and
though nothing has yet been decided
on, Q number of the leading citizens
have been quietly agitating the matter
with the prospect OF excellent results
At the next meeting OF the Town Coun
Gil, which will be held week from TO-
day, it is probable that some officia
recognition OF the event will be made
The time for preparation is brief to bt
sure, bat for all that there is ample op-
portunity fora celebration OF the ami
versary which will meet the approval
and will be appreciated by the citizens

MAYOR M'0UINNESS' SENTIMENTS

The sentiments Of Mayor Guinness
of Providence at the final session OF the

are characteristic of the man. He said
that he had kept away from the council
sessions because he did not believe that

personal contact with the leffislative
branch of the government when the lat

and possibly hamper independent
speech and vote by his presence. Inc

of the retiring members and expressed
his regret that the council was to lose
the benefit of their active participation
at its sessions In conclusion he urged
the adoption by all public officials the
one rule-"the city's good all the
