HOME RULE FOR IRELAND.

The dream of Irishmen the world over has been
for years vision of the Irish people governing them
selves 1t IS more likely to be realized than it has
ever been since the first English invasion.
The Tory government of Great Britain is serious
" contemplating bringing in bill providing for home
rule Tor Ireland. 1t is probable that will be done
during the present session Of parliament but that such
measure will be introduced within the year appears
be certain.
The condition which has made this departure from.
the traditions Of the Conservative party
not been brought about altogether by agitation. The
Englshman had his back up for years because the
Irishman has been trying drive him do that which
he might have done voluntarily if it were not for the
driving. Perhaps he has been in affected
by the agitation that has been going on ceaselessly
almost since the infamous union brought about
lie has been touched very closely i'll his pocket Ire
land has been bill of expense to England for cen
fury In spite of the fact that the country has been
taxed beyond reason Ireland has never yielded any
revenue to the British crown. Race and religious an
tipathes, than desire for profit have impeled
the Englishman to retain actual control in Ireland
There has not been a prime minister since the
sion of Victoria who would gladly have given Ire
land to the Irish if he could have done so with
creditor without the loss of political prestige The
Irishman rampant has been a source of more terror
to the rulers of Britain than all the of the
armies of Europe
Since Gladstone changed his front on the Irish
question the people of England have been learning
something about Ireland Where force failed the cam
pagn of education has been effective and the freshman
Is longer unregeneratc and ignorant monster in
the sight of the Englishman Millions of Irishmen in
every country have demonstrated the capacity of the
race Tor segOvcrnment and there doubt of their
capacity to do justice to the people of the Emerald Isle
Whatever the inspiring motive of the Conservative
of England in planning home rule for Ire
land it should be accepted freely is step in the
direction Of that ultimate freedom for which all Irish
men hope

Thieves Active

MENTONE, Riviera, March 22.-Un-
til now both American and other visit
ing strangers have been scarcer than
in past seasons, and this has been
largely due to the fierce winds which
have repeatedly visited the coast, max
ing the present season a very alb
normal one.
But all has been changed, for the
blue of a silent sea and the gold of a
regnant sun at last dominate the color
scheme Of days that so lately were all
too gray.
Following the carnival, as for some
little time before it, the stream of Wis
itOrS has increased. Many came here
to view the new institution or Men
tone, the winter palace, which does not
belle it's name when one sees the fine
gardens and the hand painted ceilings
of it's spacious restaurant, where the
lobster is served in a style that almost
defies imitation.
For those who are interested in ra-
cling and in the frequenters of race
tracks more especially their fair and
fashionable frequenters, it may be
said that there was not quite the usual
amount of feStiVity al Nice races this
year. and the usual spectacular effect
of wonderful designs and colOring in
the ladies' dresses was perforce SobeTed
ny the ullSedSOIldDlG WedIQeT. Nor
were the average number of Americans
to be seen at the track this time.
They have been agitating at Nice
the erection of a Queen Victoria Me-
mortal hospital the subscribers be-
ing of course chiefly English, with a
certain percentage of Americans who
sympathiZe with the idea. Some years
ago there occurred at a hospital in
Nice the death of an English woman
who had not at her bedside a single
person who understood how to speak a
word of English. and this event gave
an impetus to the movement in favor
of establishing an English hospital
One English resident has subscribed
$4,000, but, strangely enough, other
the proposition coldly, claiming that
there are not enough rich English or
English-speaking people residing at
Nice to keep up a hospital of the kind
One would think that such an enter
prise as this would not lag and that
Americans. who are by no means in
a minority here, would also contribute
to so laudable an undertaking.
Maple, the furniture man, has finally
come to the rescue to a certain extent,

There is nothing new to be said
about the Casino at Monte Carlo, which
is, of course, after all, the attraction to
so many except that the whole town is
simply swarming with thieves and
pickpockets of all nations, and I re-
greet to say that the English are well to
the fore among them. One man play
ing at roulette the other afternoon was
relieved Of 4,000fr (916O), and another
young fellow lost 6 120 in notes, which

deductions may not be made. 1t is a
well known fact that the board of con-
troll reduced salaries quite materially
IN number of the institutions. and
II IS also a fact that by reOsOn of
losing so many of it's good employees the
board saw its mistake, and on June |.
1902, increased the salaries 10 per cent
OF all whose salaries were less than
SlOO per month (page 25). By con-
sulting the list of salaries, beginning
on page 127, it can be readily ascer-
tanned that the salaries of all those
who receive more than 500 per month
amount to but trifle more than SOL
600 per year, leaving the balance
OO6.62, subject to the increase of 10
per cent ordered June l last. This
increase would amount to more than
$4,000, which, added to the S38S.

cess of those of 1901.
