BARNEY DOES HIS PART.

Deputy Commissioner York could safely he
trusted TO carry out his part of the Devery pro-
gramme for getting square with O'Neill. He
says in his report that it would never do in the
world TO let subordinates with impunity charge
their superiors with dishonesty. He is evident
ly strong that point, and with reason. Some
patrolman might some time charge him with be-
ing a lawbreaker who ought to be in jail AS
Police Commissioner he deliberately violated
his oath, and. according to his own confession
made promotions contrary TO the letter and
spirit of the statute. 1t seems a little curious
TO see the standard of conduct unbecoming an
officer and gentleman" set by an officer who
was such a coward that when he had to dis
miss charges against policeman with pull
for wantonly breaking a citizens Jaw he
sneaked under blanket TO do it, and concealed
his action for two weeks. But that is one of
the little contradictions of a system which sets
criminals up the protectors of the city against
crime
Barney has done the work he was put to
do perhaps well as it could be done His
report is rather ridiculous. He finds O'NeiIl
guilty, but AT the same time admits that he had
right to be heard by Devery on the trial when
his outbreak occurred to produce witnesses and
present their evidence. That was just what
O'Nell was not allowed 10 do. though Barney
finds it convenient 10 ignore that fact. Devery
himself failed TO act as became Judge much
less an officer and a gentleman. and le was in
no position TO hold ONeill amenable To a stand.
ard he himself did not live up to. ONeill was
unquestionablv prosecuted. not judged. and
under the circumstances he was justified i'm
thinking he treated from corrupt mo-
tiyes and saying so. even If he was mistaken.
His failnre to prove the corruption does not
justify Devery. He did not come into court
with clean hands. Barney. in passing over that
. side Of the case, plays the coward after his
kind. and Murphy shows the same disposition
for he says he merely approved Barney's find

fact Barney had sneaked out Of any such find

IRELAND AT WESTMINSTER.

Another Irish question is coming to the fore
in the imperial Parliament at Westminster. 1t
concerns the representation of Ireland in that
body. For years it has been notorious that
Ireland enjoys a much larger representation in
Parliament in proportion to her population than
either England Scotland. That is an undis-
puted fact patent upon the face of statistics
The question is whether such representation
can legally and justly be reduced to the British
standard and if it can if il should not be done
Both Conservatives and Liberals have long
desired to make such a change, but for one
reason or another have hesitated to do so
Apparently the present government has at last
resolved to attempt it in next years session of
Parliament Discussion Of il. by way of put
ting forth feelers,'' has been begun in the press
and ON the platform. 1t was started by no less
authorities than Mr.. Balfour and Mr.. Chamber
lain at the recent Unionist demonstration at
Blenheim. The Irish reply as voiced by Mr.
John Redmond, is one of defiance and of insist
ence that the act of union prevents any such
change. Mr.. Redmond by the way. will pres
emily visit this country, and will doubtless be
heard here on this well as other topics.
Briefly put. if representation were made pro-
portonate to population Ireland would have
thirty-one fewer members and Scotland three
fewer than NJ present and England thirty four
more. The representation of Wales is precisely
what it should he. On the average, Ireland has
one member for every 7.144 voters, Scotland enc
for every 9,61S and England one for every
1887 1t is, OF course, impossible TO justify
such differences in country with representa-
tive government. Similar differences have for
one cause or another existed in the United
States. and bitter protests have been made
against them. They are, In fact. contrary TO
both the spirit and the letter of the law. In
the United Kingdom the law is not quite as
explicit as it is here, but at the same time the
whole legal and constitutional system is far

THE cBTRCH AND THE MASSES.

Dean Farrar in an article just published
declares that the Church of England Is rapidly
losing its hold on the working classes of Eng
land, and he estimates that less than . per cent
of working people attend the services OF the
Church. While the reasons for this remarkable
decline are many and complex, the dean singles
out two for which he holds the Church respon-
sible First of all. he says that the Prayer
Book is not suited to the needs and intcllccts
of the working classes. Il have, he declares.
heard those who labor in the poor parts OF
London often declare that the services OF the
Church of England are too stereotyped, monet
'onous and long. The language of the Prayer
Book indeed is stately and beautiful but II Is
not the language spoken by the people or
understood by them: and if We are TO draw the
'.workingmen into our churches think ii ahSo-
"lutely necessary that the Church, through con
vocation. should simplify the forms of service
"to be used in the poorer parts of great cities
In the second place. Or. Farrar declares that
the people who cater to tho vices of drink and
gambling offer greater attractions than the
Church. Yet the Church appears to he unaware
of its failure TO attract the masses, and largely
concerns itself with barren discussions about
trivial ceremonies. While there is undoubtedly
much truth in this arraignment of the Anglican
Church, ii is only fair TO say that all Christian
bodies are losing their hold many working
people. In Protestant and Catholic countries

away. which is no less portentous because
silent That the leaders of the churches are
much concerned over this state OF affairs needs
not to be said But not one of them has dis
covered any way by which the allegiance of the
backsliders can be regained. Even DR.. Farrar,
whose ability. experience and zeal are unques-
toned, can only say what the Church ought TO
do though he knows perfectly we'll that there
is no possibility of the Church's doing it. Many
churchmen agree with him in regard TO the
Prayer Book; but any serious attempt to revise
II in such way rs to make it acceptable to the

able barrier against readjustment OF representa-
ton upon basis of equality among the three
kingdoms If Parliament determines 10 do So
the desired reform can doubtless be eHected
either by decreasing Ireland's representation or
bv increasing Englands-
There is, however. another consideration
which may perhaps prove more potent than the
act of union in giving English statesmen pause
in the matter. That is the gross inequalities
existing among constituencies in England ITSELF
We have said that the average English member
represents 10,S97 voters. But there are in Eng
land and Wales no fewer than twenty-nine con-
stituencies of less than 5000 each, and there
are sixty-six with more than $4,000 each. The
Romford Division of Essex has one member
and 33,556 electors and the Borough of Durham
has member and only 2632 electors. Again
the largest six constituencies in the kingdom
have aggregate Of more than 100000 electors
and the smallest forty five have an aggregate Of
less than 10000 So one set of 100000 electors
have only six Willie another set of 10000 have
forty-five votes in Parliament In this state OF
affairs there are inequalities and injustices con-
trasted with which those between Ireland and
England seem petty There is no doubt that If
readjustment of Irish representation be seri-
ously undertaken there will be vigorous
demand for readiustment all around. The
latter would be a performance more revolution
ary than the original Reform BILL and the gov
ernment would be most reluctant 10 undertake
it, Yet it is difficult how it could logically
refuse to do so if it should insist upon righting
the much less wrong in the case of Ireland. 1t
is probably upon that consideration, rather than
upon the act of union. that Ireland will rely for
retention of her present dispropcrtonately great
representation.
