HOME RULE FOR IRELAND.

The massage In the House of Com
mons nv large majority of u resolu-
ton favoring unqualified local sell
government for ireland brings this ideal
OF the Nationalist party much nearer
possibility than it has ever been De
fore. II is supposed that the govern
ment is willing to follow it with proper
legislation.
The significant fact to note is tilA'
victory always follows a just cause TOT
which Its champions are willing to work
earnestly and make sacrifices lreiahu
has gained It's point inch by inch lrish
propositions. at first branded in Eng
land as revolutionary, are now accepted
as conservative. At present 1t Is
thought that a Home Rule could pass
the House without serious opposi-
ton, whatever Its fate might
be In the upper division of Parliament
tits supposed by some that Home Rule
legislation would be only an opening
wedge for an agitation for complete
separation. This Is the view not only
of some English statesmen but is shar-
ed by some of the sons of Ireland, who
cling to the thought of union, and are
ready to fight against Home Rule to
the last ditch.
But they may be mistaken. Home
Rule may be the very cure of the dis
satisfaction In Ireland with English
supremacy. And with this disssatis-
faction entirely removed there would
be no cause for an agitation for separa-
ton. The cause OF liberty is progress
ing in the world. The advance may be
slow. hut II IS certain.
