strictly. When the saint had concluded
his discourse, he was about to leave

AoA 1888 elective way lIdH II IL were
used for the development of Irish in
dustry and resources. 1t is, however,
= better use of the Irish war taxes
than spending them on a stock job
bers' war. There are further hundreds
of thousands destined for the landlord
purse. They will come out of tue
balance or whatever
is left of it; and they may even have
to come out OF. the British taxpayers
own pocket, that ganglion of political
sensitivity. How long will John Bull
stand this new and unprecedented
drain? He will try to get it back we
know. But the experience of the new
whisley tax as far as it has gone tends
to prove that there are limits to the
taxation of country. To such a lame
and impotent fiscal conclusion has ar
rived the experiment of governing
Ireland against its will by the bribery
of bureaucracies and classes.
There is one serious consideration
that must discount the Irish Nation
alist's satisfaction 1T the result. The
manner in which Irish government ex-
penditure has been piled up, the fashion
in which Irish revenue has been thrown
about in recent years, must enormously
increase the difficulties that will con-
front a National Government when it
comes. The sources of Irish taxation
are being drained dry. not for year
and a day, but for many years and
days. They are being hypothecated for
liabilities that are being so freely as
sumed, because under the circum-
stances they come out of Irish funds
over which Ireland has no control, will
have to be liquidated for long after those
funds have come under Irish control.
The problems that Gladstone set the
prospective Chancellor of the Irish Ex-
chequer by the balance sheet of 1886
were child's play to the difficulties

Irish finance in the future. Nor has
the task of framing a satisfactory
Home Rule bill been rendered
easier by the tota ..utsappearance-ss4
the Imperial balance and the accumu-
lation of those liabilities. True, the
pruning-knife Of the economist has
never yet been applied to the Irish
votes. There are resources there. But
no task is more difficult, as the his
tory of Mr.. wyndhamt,s spromised
economy of quarter of a million goes
to show, than saving money on sys-
tenn of government such as the Irish
system. The existing conditions can
not last Irish taxation trespasses up
on the existence fund of the people
and yet the expenditure upon Irish
government under British rule has
overtaken and threatens to outpass
Irish taxation.
