THE A. O. H. CELEBRATION.
(New Haven. Union.)

CNew Haven Union.)
 The splendid showing of the A. o. H. in Bridgeport Tuesday is gratifying to all the friends of Ireland and Irish men Well may these sons of "Auld Erin parade and celebrate. They have not only made good. in their adopted country, but after centuries of persecution and unjust and tyrannical treatment they can see the sun of prosperity and liberty breaking from behind the clouds that have so long darkened their native land.
 Ireland today is at last certainly on the road that must lead eventually to the goal of her most cherished ann bitions. Home rule was never a great CT possibility than it is today. England realizes that Ireland musts have justice as much for England's sake as for Ire- lands sake. The dominant party in British politics is pledged to the Irish home rule principle, and the aged roar Of the British lion has been changed to licking of the Irish hand. John Redmond holds a formidable balance England, facing German aggression, realizes only too well that she must make Ireland her friend or else she will become Germany'c allie.
 Of course there is continued exo- dus of the Irish people from '%he 1duu OI ILGlT UlTlI. 1AAS WOA1N " deplorable, so far as Ireland is con- cerned, were there not many encour- aging features on the Irish national horizon. It is a fact that the number of emigrants in the year 1911 is below the average for any of the decennial periods for which records are availa- ble. In the ten years 1901 to 1910 the average was 24,602: in the ten years 1891 1900 the average number of eTli- grants was 43,353; in the ten years 1881 to 1890 the annual average was 77.671; in the ten years 1871 to 1880 the average number was 62, ,398; and in the ten-yearly period of 1861 to 1870 it was 84,9S4. The average for the nine years 1852 to 1860 was 101, ,136.
 A curions anomaly this. On the one hand Ireland is becoming more pros porous every day, and on the other her population is day by day getting less It is to be hoped that home rule will stem the tide of emigration and keep the young and the stalwart of the Irish people at home, not that we are not glad to welcome them here, but because we are intensely interes- ted in seeing the Ireland of the 10th century become the Ireland it should be, and the Ireland it would have long ago become save for British oppres- sion

A MUDDLE.

(Hartford Times)
 President Tafts suggestion to con- gress that foreigners who think the granting of free, use of the Panama Canal to American vessels in the coast wise trade is an ingfringement of the Hay-Paunceforte ,teaty may bring not, we fear, have a favorable impress- sic11 UYoa ...e people or o>.ler cUex4- tries.
 It is not good form" for man who claims to be a gentleman to break a solemn agreement and at the same time seek to break the force of his act by the verdict of a tribunal made up of his own fellow citizens, who cannot be the fellow citizenr of the other party to the agreement.
 Nor is it ' good form to compel the man with whom you have entered into specific agreement to go into court to prove the violation of good faith.
 Again, it is to be considered that nc American court is the proper tribunal to determine whether the congress of the United States has violated an agreement with a foreign country Our courts have to many duties now. politicians who want to abolish our government and introduce direct government in place of it. Why put any greater strain upon the federal Judiciary when it is already over burdened with non-Judicial functions by such mischievous enactments as the Sherman antitrust law?
 We fear that in this case an oppor- tunity for wise executive leadership has been lost. The correspondent at Washineton,, who is closest to Sena- tor Murray Crane, of Massachusetts teiegraphs that "The embarrassing sit uaxion which has arisen is largely of the administrations own making"
 Merely one more case, we suppose of the rnuddling which was first re- vealed in the handling of the Payne Aldrich tariff. and to which MT. Taft owes most of his political nisfortunes and endorsements.

SIX YEAR PRESIDENTIAL TERM
 (Naw Britain Herald


 It doesn't look as if the resolution providing for a six-year term for the President, with no reelection, would meet with the approval of the present congress. It was debated yesterday and the sentiment was very much di- vided. One of the principal points of benefit from such law did not re- ceive any attention, though it had been previously referred to.
 A six-year term would be a distinct advantage to the country for the req son that it would insure the occupant of the presidency giving his complete attention to the affairs of state and not to strengthening himself for another term. In other words he would not play politics. No sovAer is a man inaugurated president than he begins to build fences for a second term and if is a sort of unwritten law that he should be retained in office, but that This may be desirable with the tenure of office four years, but it would not be desirable if the term was six years. A president would then have an op- portunity to work out his government tai policies through three congresses and in this way would be able to ben eft the country more than under the present system. It has been said that if the president was a good man and rendered valuable service that he chould be retained in office, but that argument Is neither wise nor logical To do that would probably mean the establishment of naacAtnA that wn1ld
