A STEP TOWARD HOME RULE.

The Irish local government bill which
was introduced by the chief secretary
for Ireland in the mouse of commons
last Monday is. Il step toward Irish home
rule. Though not entirely satisfactory
It, was welcomed by Tho Irish leaders.
John Dillon declared it was superior to
the bill of 1892 but not equal to the Eng
lish and Scotch measures. John Red
mond criticised some points Of the bill
but said il it worked successfully it
would be an unanswerable argument in
favor of home rule. Timothy Healy
praised the bill, and Col. Saunderson,
the Ulster Tory, said a majority of the
landlords recognized the necessity Of the
measure. The only Irish member who
threatened opposition to the bill was
Michael Davitt, because of that part Of
it which promised relief 20 the landlords
in the shape Of an agricultural grant
On the whole, the bill was considered a
good one and passed. it's first reading.
1t will doubtless meet with no opposition
in the upper house and will eventually
become law. The Liberals will vote for
it, so long as the IRISH members are
willing to accept it. John Morley, tho
best friend OF ireland in she ncuse, pro-
nounced it "a genuine democratic eff
fort"
The fact that the British government
has at last consented to give Ireland
what England and Scotland have long
enjoyed is an evidence that the same
laws do not exist in ireland as in Great
Britain. Many Americans of intelli-
gcnce have imagined that the same laws
are administered throughout the United
Kingdom. but the introduction of this
bill for Ireland by Gerald Balfour last
Monday will disabusc them of that cr-
rGneous notion. Had Ireland been gov
erned like Great Britain since the union
we would never have had the agitation
to sever the parliamentary connection
which was carried on by O'Connell for
so many years.
1t is because Of the misgovernmant OF
Ireland in disregard of the act of union
that the agitation for home rule has
been going on and will continue to 70
on until that measure is finally granted
through Il sense Of justice or by force
or fear at critical moment in the DO
litical affairs Of England. The longer
home rule is postponed the more sweep
ing must the measure be for ireland.
Parnell would accept subordinate par
lament for Ireland under the Gladstone
bill, but England would not grant It, In
his address in reply to the queens
speech the otheralay John Redmond pro-
posed an amendmeA saying that while
the house regards With satisfaction the
proposed bill M the reform of local
government in tselaad, the measure will
nowise meet the demand for an indie
pendent Irish parliament"
John Dillon, chairman of the Irish
parliamentary party. supported Red
mond's amendment, though admitting it
was departure from the policy of the
late Charles Stewart Parnell. Sir William
Harcourt. the Liberal leader, did not
like to hear such advanced views ex-
pressed by the Irish leaders and said
he would oppose the amendment because
the Nationalist under Parncll were sat
istied with bill in which the supremacy
of the imperial parliament was recog-

Globe has been an advocate of the single
gold standard and an unfiinching OPP

counts for its lack of success in this

been an Independent paper in politics

That notorious blackguard ex-Priest
Slattery, came to grief in Scotland re-
Gently. The scapegrace was brought be-

obscene literature and was severely re-

him on promising he would destroy the
vile books on the Catholic church in
few days. 1t is greatly to the credit of
the Scotch Presbyterians to have dealt
with Slattery in that way. The unprin-
