The governing class-the 1andlords-have kept the Irish
people divided into rival religious camps. They lost no oppor-
tunty of feeding and tanning sectarian animosites. Their motive
was not in doubt because they knew that a united Irish people
could force Home Rule, with all its attendant blessings. The
stock argument against Home Ru1e/ and the one that has been
potent in England, is that the Catholic majority would Cypress
the Protestant minority, and this too in spite of the fact that
Isaac Butt and Charles Stewart Parnell were Protestants and
that the non-Catholc members of the Irish Parliamentary party
arr elected by constituencies containing an overwhelming major
iy of Catholic voters.
The movement to bring all classes of the people together is
deserving of every encouragement, and it is one to which
Americans may wish a hearty Godspeed.

TARIFF REYsu0N-0RAN0e AND 0REBNLLocAL CONTROL
0H IvDusTRfHS


That the next Republican National Convention will speci6-
cany declare in favor of revising the tariff is now practically
assured. The thinking men of the party realize that this step
is necessary, and they are far-seeing enough to understand that
there must be revision soon, either by one political party or
the other. That being SO, they naturally prefer to have the
work done by the friends of protection rather than by its
enemies. If the stand-patters were allowed to control the policy
of the Republican party. they would have it set its face for
ever and a day against any interference with the present schedule
of import duties, and the inevitable result would be a Free
Trade Congress.

Andrew !. Kettle, who, with Michael Davitt and a few 9TH
ers, founded the old Irish Land League, is low organizing a
movement to bring men of all creeds together in Ireland for
systematic work to better conditions in that country.
The reunion of Orange and Green has been the ideal of
many n Irish leader, patriot and poet. It was the constant
dream of Thomas Davis. the laureate of the Young Ireland
movement, who was cut off ere he had yet reached his prime
and when his genius was just developing. The thought is one
calculated to inspire all that is best and noblest among Irish
men who are big enough and broad enough to know no creed
in doing their counry's work. The realization of it would
mean the beginning of the end of Erin's centuries of woes and
troubles.

The presidency has acquired a degree OF
strength which suggests in most emphatic
terms that its possessor should be pre-
eminently a person Of practical common
sense and Of sound judgment. The lack
of these qualities Mr.. Bryan shows by the
issues that he selects, among which he
fits like a butterfly from flower to flower.
Only last April he proposed to drive out OF
the Democratic party anybody who did
not believe in the initiative and referendum,
a project which he since seems fortunately
to nave forgotten. His experience with
Government ownership of railroads at
fords another example. Is It too late for
the Democratic party to make a selection
which will be more worthy Of its historic
past and a better demonstration OF the oft
repeated assertion hat in the hands OF
either of its great parties the country Is

vision, and when they take that attitude why should others

What Congress ought to do is to create a permanent
Tariff Commission and thus take the matter out of politics.
That was a favorte idea of the late Congressman Edward F.
Mcdonald, of Harrison, and had he been spared, his voice
would have been heard in logical and eloquent exposition of
the plan.
A Commission composed of the ablest men in the country
could go into the matter Observation-Disclosures data, hearing
recommendations, suggestions and arguments. There would be
none of the excitement and uncertainty of our present method
of bringing about changes in the duties. Manufacturers would
have confidence in such a Commission and its actions would
be freed from the lobbying and log-rolhng now inseparable from
the preparation and passage of a Tariff Act.

wood, secretary and treasurer of the
Western Federation of Miners, Chas.
H. Meyer, president, and Geo. A. Pet
tibone, and Harry Orchard, members
of the Federation. The state OF
Idaho admits that Haywood was not
in the state at the time the crime was
committed, but contends and expects
to prove that he was one, and at the
head, of number who entered into a
conspiracy to accomplish the crime
committed; that he was in reality a
murderer and that it was through
his influence that the crime took place.
Based on these alleged facts the
governor of Colorado granted extradi-
tion papers and allowed Haywood to
be arrested and taken to the state of
Idaho. 1t will be remembered that
at that time great cry arose in labor
circles in the mining districts of the
west against what they termed a con-
spiracy of capitalists against the la
borers.
At this time and at this distance
it is impossible to judge accurately
as to the guilt or innocence of the ac-
cused. The evidence against Hay
mood aooe,ete 20 - ,Lo;,x - n;,<.....,
stantial evidence worked up by de-
tective agency, and upon confessions.
There always exists a shadow of a
doubt in both such lines of evidence.
The first is working for money con-
sideration and the other confesses in
hopes Of immunity against punish
ment for crime actually committed.
But if the authorities succeed in es-
tablishing their claim we hope that
justice will be handed out to Hay
wood in reasonably large chunks.
Enough is known to prove him to be
an undesirable citizen.
The principle involved in this trial
it seems to us, can also be applied in
many other cases. For instance, when
the man in charge of the coal depart
ment of one of the coal owning and
coal carrying roads of the east enter
into a conspiracy for the control of
prices of coal at the docks on Lake
Michigan and dictates to what class
Of people the coal shall be sold and
at what rates, he could be tried in
Wisconsin for violation of the Wis
consin laws as much as Haywood can
be tried in Idaho for crime commit

The railroad officials are advising
coal dealers to put in their supply
early. The advice is given at this
time as a foundation for the defense
later on. The fact is that all coal
dealers in the Northwest fill their
bins before the rush of crops to mar

put in years supply. The dealer

AN INTERESTING CASE.

As rule this writer takes little in

and it is seldom that we take the time
to read such accounts. But trial is
now on at Boise, Idaho, which is of
unusal Importance. 1t has TO deal
not only with the trial of a man for
his life, but with the life or death of
the accused is involved principle
that is of great importance to the
country at large, a principle that, if
matters continue for the next few
years as they have in the past, will be
of still greater Importance as it will
have very great bearing on crime
committed as the result OF labor
strikes and conspiracies.
We refer to the trial of Haywood
for the murder of Gov. Steunenberg,
of Idaho, during the labor troubles
two years ago. In this case it is claim
ed that one Orchard and one Adams
actually planted the boom under the
gate at the governors residence prop
erty and SO arranged it that the open
ing of the gate exploded the boom
which caused the death of the COVER
nor. 1t is also claimed that these
men were the paid agents Of Hay
