has been exceptionally successful. He

COllNeullOlldf{ american
h view of Ireland af a theatre
l. on whose stage is continually
being enacted the grossest
spoilation of the poor by he rich is
likely to be modified if the Irish Nation
alst party shall persist in its advocacy
of the compulsory land purchase policy.
Under legal provisions now in force
the peasantry on an estate may, under
certain conditions, receive government
aid in purchasing land from that estate
when the landlord is willing to sell.
More than $1OO, 200, 600 has been advanc-
ed by the British government in this
way to aid the peasantry in acquiring
freeholds, and SO happy have been the
results in tranquilizing the communities
affected that the proposition has been
made part of the Irish parliamentary
programme that the system of state
aided land purchase shall become uni
versal in Ireland, unwilling landlords
to be compelled to sell.
In letter to the New York Tribune
discussing this phase of the Irish poll
teal situation, William Redmond, NJ.
p, says: "The Conservative govern
ment has promised legislation on the
subject at this session of parliament,
but its efforts will probably be con-
fined to an extension OF the present
voluntary system-a sort of greasing of
the wheels, as it We're, to make it
easier for the tenant to become a
peasant proprietor. That is good as
far as it goes; but we shall be satisfied
with nothing short of Il compulsory
measure. With the question of land
Irish politics, as it would be the oper-
alton of such Il measure, Nationalists
believe that Westminster would be
much more ready to grant Ireland's
demands for home rule"
Americans will sympathlze with
every well-considered effort of the Irish
people to better their condition, both
as individuals and in their aspiration
for nationhood. Yet if it We're pro-
posed in this country that owners of
large tracts of land should be required
by law against their will to sell their
holdings into small divisions on long
term payments, we can imagine that
there would be an outcry. Possibly
Lord Rosebery had this in mind when
he recently proclaimed his final aband-
onment of home rule and of political
identification in any way with the
Irish Nationalist party.
TO an observer at distance it looks
as if there were going soon TO be some
very interesting developments in British
politics.

T~RINCE HENRY has now COM
- pleted the chief functions of
L his mission to this country
and it is possible already to
estimate with accuracy the degree OF
success he has achieved.
Fundamentally there has never been
any estrangement between the United
States and Germany. Minor frictions
there have been from time to time;
principally limited to the official class.
Some Americans travelling in Germany
and possibly not willing to bend grace
fully to the German ways have brought
home stories of ill-treatment doubtless
much exaggerated in the telling; and
these, being repeated, have fostered n
wrong impression. Rivalries and mis-
understandings in trade, sometimes
hastily exploited in the newspapers or
in parliamentary gallery playing, have
added to the erroneous sentiment. Ger
many has its politicians as well as we
They manipulate tariffs to suit favor
ite constituents as well as our own do
The German farmer wants protection
against the competition of the Ameri-
can hog just as our farmers at times
clamor for special tariffs to shut out
possible inroads from other countries.
In short, there is human nature there
as well as here.
But these matters are relatively triv-
-tal They may eXasperate us they hap
pen; and in a country as much given
as ours is TO free and immediate
vent to, it's eXasperation it is easy
to imagine that the public feeling is
deeply stirred, But it isn't The sur
face is sexed, but the depths are calm
Underneath is the solid fact that a
fifteenth- part of our entire population,
comprising much of its bravest and
best, is of Germanic nativity, bound TO
the fatherland by ties of memory
though loyal and staunch in the citi-
zenship of it's adoption. This great ele-
ment. with its ramifications in every
American community, constitutes an
ample guarantee against the develop
ment of@au artificial estrangement. Yet
II 1t were not SO. there would remain
the fact. that in essential purpose Ger
many and America are not far apart.
Both are countries of liberty regulated
by law. administered under constitu-
tional forms. Though differing in
methodist aim of each is the further
anee of*Christian civilization: and in
each that civilization has acquired
superior. expressions. In the large
labors which Providence commits to
the hands of the living nations there
has already been occasion for the two
20 work in cordial cooperation; and if
we read Alright the future such oppor-
tunity Is not TO cease. "
So that, in any common sense view,
1t needed not the visit OF Prince Henry

The series of letters of southern
travel from the pen of j. Il. Richmond,
of Honesdale, Pa, brought to a close
in yesterdays Tribune, have been in
structive in the highest degree. They
have pictured vividly the wonderful
quickening which has come over the
new South the growth of her cities,
the development of her natural re-
sources, the manifold attractions she
offers to pleasure-seekers and the
promise of revived Americansm which
she holds out to the future. All these
things have been set forth accurately
and conscientiously by Mr. Richmond,
who has again performed valuable
educational service.

An dealist is like Il baby crying for the moon;

The result is sometimes called original.

1t means, among other things, that
the kind Of street railway service sup

regular schedules, old, scarce and often
dirty cars, and inferior equipment-wll
be the kind to which our people may

age a new enterprise Offering to eX-

this rejection will exhibit public spirit

Frank A. Munsey, the man who, ON
a capital of few pennies at the be-
ginning, within a few years built up a
fortune of millions in the publication
of cheap magazines, lately bought the
Washington Times, a penny paper
After conducting it at loss for sew
eral months on the penny basis, Mr..
Munsey has just announced an increase
in it's price to two cents; and he eX
plains the advance by asserting on his
honor as publisher that in n city the
size of Washington-more than twice
the size of Scranton and with Il much
larger radius of tributary reading ter
ritory-it is impossible to print and sell
a good newspaper at n fair profit for a
penny copy. He says it either means
a cheap or a huckstering paper or one
run at u loss.
Mr.. Munsey may have a higher ideal
of what newspaper should be than
is prevalent generally; and, too, he may
be mistaken in his figuring. But it
seems to us that paper not worth two
cents is not worth having in the house.
