IRISH ON THEIR METTLE.
Welcome Existing lmbrogliOs in Ordef
to Test Their Strength.
A CRISIS IS on IN IRISH POLITICS
The Attitude Of the Nationalist in the
Case OF Colonel Lynch Bings the
Trouble 10 a Focus.
Especial to The post)


London, June 14.--lrish issues are forcet
70 the front by the attitude OF the ma
tionhlists toward the arrest of Colonel Ar
! thur Lynch for treason, and by the lssu
ance OF writ charging a large number OF
the Irish parliamentary party with con
I spirncy In connection with the tenant trou
bles IN Roscommon. The situation Is a
crisis. Everything indicates that the irish
leaders welcome an opportunity such ss 1t
now affaords them to test their strength
against what they call British tyranny.
MIR. Redmond and MIR. Davitt alike pro-
claim anew the immutable purpose OF the
Irish people to press forward against any
odds until their cause triumphs.
Davitt bids his fellow countrymen emu
late the Beers IN temperance and loyalty to
race and language
Mr. Redmond says: "You may throw us
into jail and seQuestrate our property but
was shall win at last"
1t would be Idle to deny that all this Is
exceedingly serious. That traitor TO
King Edward should have been elected TO
parliament In ireland and should have come
TO London to claim his scat with the full
approval OF the Irish party shows in nn I'M
PHEASANT way 10 DoIu ShlAauuIy the ltui
state OF the Irish mind.
That an irish landlord should have ar
rested half dozen Irish statesmen ana
with the full Endorsement OF Dublin Castle,
Indicates that MIR. wyndhams efforts TO
stamp out the United Irish league by the
ordinary methods have failed.
Papers like the Globe may call Colonel
Lynch a nuisance and refer to the writ as !
an ordinary legal procedure not calling for
special explanation but talk OF this sort
does not conceal the real gravity of events. /
"a new era OF agitation has begun. Brit /
fish statesmen find that the fashionable way
Of Ignoring IreIands demands must be
abandoned"
killing home rule with kindness" is a
failure, SO is killing It with coercion. Mat
tiers have reached pitch where settle
nent must be made on lines of justice and
a frank recognition Of the legitimate claims
If Ireland.
