NEVER WE'RE HOPES HIGHER.

Reviewing the political situation
in Ireland, the Dundalk Democrat
predicts that the new year will be a
red-letter one in Irish history. 1t
will mark the advent Of home rule
as a measure of practical politics.
Gladstone's first home rule bill was
wrecked by the detection of Sec
ton of his own party headed by
Chamberlain and the Duke Of
Devonshire. His second bill was
thrown out by the Lords. The
Liberals of that day lacked the
courage to face the Lords in a
decisive struggle for the mastery.
Today the Liberals are practically
solid in their support of home rule.
They have thrown down the gage
OF battle to the Lords, and nothing
cap save the Embellishments priv
ilege of that Anticipated body save
such a failure of courage on the
art of the Liberals as would
destroy that political party for
egermore. The prospect is bright;
snd it is all the brighter because
the Irish people stand solid and
determined behind their leaders and
will suffer no retrograde movement
on the part of the Liberals. We
I ave been close to what looked like
victory more than once; and it was
cur own distracted and disunited
condition that was more than
anything else responsible for the
failure of our hopes as a nation.
Let us see to it that in this
rnomentous year of 1911 we close up
the ranks, firm and united, behind
Mr.. Redmond and his party. Let
every man who wants home rule
have his place in the national or
ranization, ready when the time
comes to supply that driving force
that may be necessary to bring our
cause to triumphant issue. Let
Ireland show that for once It IS
united and determined, and thus
etrengthen the hands OF our repre-
sentatives in Parliament to deal
fearlessly with the difficult and
critical situations that may arise.
Never were hopes higher, never
prospects brighter. The final
victory is at hand If We Irishmen
prove ourselves in this last struggle
worthy Of victory.

greatest evil winch might Delall bhe
nations. We therefore are some
what skeptical as to lasting union
between the High church spirit and
the spirit represented by our
democratic churches.
Another fact of ill-omen has
struck me, and some others, with
regard to the conference. 1t is the
somewhat loose and indefinite way
in which the fundamental principle
of the Reformation, viz, the divine
inspiration and full sufficiency of
the Bible, has been treated. In
such an ecumenical meeting as that
the first act, it seems to us, should
have been a solemn and unanimous
assertion of that fundamental
principle. AS it was, it does seem
MS If the critical views now so
largely spread with regard to the
Bible have had greater recognition
than the old-fashioned, and to US,
all-important doctrines of the super
natural inspiration of the book. The
one thing on which Rome is very
strong is divine authority. OF
course we do not agree with Rome
on the point of where that authority
is lodged; Rome says in the church,
we say in the Bible. But unless
we are as positive in our affirmation
as Rome is in hers, souls who are
anxious to find firm ground on
which to rest blameless, will turn
away from us to where authority is
firmly maintained.
'You ask me also to tell you how
things look in France, in the relig-
ious sphere. There seems to be, on
the part of the Romish forces, a
spirit of conquest and assertion. The
Pope's late announcements against
all forms of modernism have silenced
many timid voices within the Roman
Catholic church who aspire to more
liberty. At the same time the
progress of lawlessnes among the
people, arising in past from the
decay of religion, makes some
thoughtful people very anxious, and
they are looking round to see on
what new foundations a nations
morality might be reconstructed.
The pity is that even among us,
French Protestants, there is that
want of faith in the Bible Of which
have spoken. All forms of fads
are being tried here and there with
indifferent success. VIII you and
your dear readers pray that those of
us who are, in great weakness, try
ing to bring the old gospel 10 the
new generation with as modern
adaptations as possible, may be
bold, largely increased in numbers
and baptized in the Holy Spirit?"
Rev. Salliens acknowledges that
the Catholic church is gaining
ground; he tells how restless the
people are becoming; he notes the
decay of religion, the decay of moral
ity in France, and admits that the
Government needs reconstruction.
Rev. salliens also lays stress on
the fact that his Protestant brethren
are trying various religious fads
without success.

IntOlerabIe Rebellion.

When l lived down in Bowie county,
Texas" said Maclyn Arbuckle, in the
Popular Magazine, Il Learned a lot
about politics. On one election day,
which l remember very we'll, the boss
of the county came driving into town
in a broken-down old buggy, with a
splayfotted horse hitched to it. The
boss son was his companion. When
the upper part of the town was reach
ed a man rushed out from side
street and whispered to the boss N
an agitated manner.
THE boss swore volubly and whip
ped the old horse into a trot. Half
way down the street, however, he stop
ped, and said to his son:
Boy, git out'n the buggy an ruT
down to the fothe precinck. Sam says

Charles C. Rogers, Of Washington, is

six feet tall, and built on stalwart

On the way to his office one morning
he got off the street car, which was
held up several minutes by a traffic
jam, says Popular Magazine.
Hello" said the motorman of the
car.
Good morning. replied Rogers, IN
his usual suave manner.
Doing pretty well?" asked the mo-
torman
Very WELL" replied Rogers. this
time little coldly.
The motOrman eyed him a little
.doubtfully, and then said:

didn't you drive a beer wagon at the
brewery"
After that Rogers spent the whole
day talking to himself, and saying
things about that boneheaded motor
man.

Courageous Teddy Gave a Salutary Warning

and increase the sentiment that the
men under arrest are guilty.
There is too much tendency in this
country, anyway, TO try cases out OF

q man of any position whatever, TO al

tempered with. By a process of delays

him, but the conviction comes home

for final miscarriage OF justice.
Crimes of violence of every kind are
steadily on the increase in this coun-
try. The wave will never recede until
there is a more prompt execution Of
the laws, until a stronger public SEN
timent is arrayed against such efforts
to influence the public judgment as
were recently attempted by Gompers
and others, and until some restraint IS
put upon recourse to technicaIities
that are manifestly only utilized TO de-
lay, hamper and finally override the
intent of the laws. If Roosevelt is
seconded by other public men of prom
inence in his recent stand something
may be accomplished of definite ma
ture along this line.

She Didn't Get Her Nickel Back.

She Didn't Get Her Nickel Back.
And it happened right in Louisville,
too, says the Louisville Times.
The matinee performance was about
half over when a distracted looking
woman, with a curly haired youngster
of six, sought out the man in the box
office" With great embarrassment she
began to relate her woes.
There are boxes on your chairs in
there" She began, and they say
drop nickel in and get a box of
candy"
Yes, L see," asserted the man in the
box office
Well" she continued, Indignantly,
Il dropped a nickel in for my little
girl"
And couldn't you get the candy ."
queried the box Office man. VAIN III
see if we can't get it out"
"Oh, yes" answered the woman, 81
got the candy all right, but I couldn't
get the nickel out"
And to the ticket man at Least this
furnished a more dramatic moment
than any in the play.
