nothing by doing so. except senseless de-
lay and enlightenment of popular feeling

as possible from a situation which, at
best, can mean nothing for them but
humiliating defeat in the end.
Speaks Against Home Rule.
Maurice Healy, brother of tie famous
Tim. and. like his eminent brother a
very wealthy lawyer. made the strongest
speech against home rule that was de-
livered this week. Indeed, We're Maurice
Healy an out-and-out tory-unionist, he
could not have made an ADLER contribu-
ton to the debate from a tory stand
point
The two Healys are highly gifted men,.
Both Timoth and Maurice i'm the en-
joyment of great law business. They got
their start through the influence and
power of Mr.. Parnell at the very begin
ming of the land league movement. and
from the first day they We're known as
leaders among the expert lawyers on land
legislation.
AS he proceeded with his speech OF op-
position to the home rule bill. Maurice
Healy was cheered and hear heared :
with enthusiasm by the tory benches.
Those two bright attorneys from Cork
are the great allies for the tories in this
struggle.
1t was an interesting study to watch
the faces of the Irish nationalists as they
sat silently listening to his attack on the
bill, which they, a body. are support

involved Patience, tact and a broad
understanding Of the confusing and con-
ficting interests at stake must be had by
those who are in charge of the negotia-
tions. The best men of both interests
are engaged on the task and there Is fair
reason to believe that the radicals and
irreconcilables will not be permitted to
dominate or defeat the plans of the more
conservative element. There is still
enough uncertainty, however. to keep the
market more or less disturbed away in
the background and to prevent some of
the big men Of the financial word from
committing themselves too heavily. They
are still cautious in action and advice.

CALL DEBATE Dull
Speeches in House of Com
mons Disappoints Visitors.
Mr.. BALFOUR'S AMBITIONS
Many Believe He Would Take Pre-
miership for Second Time
if Offered.
Special Cablegram to The Star.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
DUBLIN. May 1S.-Visitors to the
galleries of the house of commons are
not slow in expressing their feelings Of
disappointment at the rather dull charac-
ter of the debate on the home rule bill.
Since the first day, when Mr.. Asquith
and Mr.. Redmond made their great
speeches. the debate has not brought out
much OratOrical fervor. In fact, most of
the speeches since have been uninterest-
ing enough to be commonplace. save for
an exceptionally brilliant effort by T. P.
O'Connor and the finely reasoned. logical
argument for home rule made by Sir
Rufus Isaacs, who is fast working for
himself a place in British public life
which no other man of the Hebrew race
has ever attained. with the single excep-
ton Of Benjamin D'Israeh, known later
as Lord Beaconsfield.
The tory opposition has been very
stale. Much was expected from Mr.. Bal
four. But on the night Of his contribu-
ton to the debate, he had not been
speaking five minutes before it was plain
to everybody his heart was not in his
task
The fact is, Arthur Balfour is not yet
by any means through with his political
dnDlIlOnS. he mas DeoH prime EilHIStSI,
and during his incumbency he made good
Roadway on the Irish question. though
he shivered and stopped short at home
rule.
Gave ireland County Councils.
It was Balfour who gave Ireland the
system of county councils. whose smooth
and admirable conduct has done SO much
to strengthen the argument for complete
home rule.
There are those who will say that to-
day Mr.. Balfour, IL he can defeat the
present ministry, would not be averse to
again taking the premiership, even
though his doing SO would have to mean
an understanding with the Irish party.
One thing is as certain as any human
contingency can be. 1t is that home rule
has reached the point of the inevitable.
The bill now before parliament has got
to become law or the whole parliament
tary system Of England will go to pieces.
Every sensible man in parliament
knows this, none better than the tories
In both houses. The house of lords has
two years to block the bill. but at the
end OF that period the opposition OF the
peers must end. 1t is not at all expected
that the lords will use their veto to the
full limit Of two years. They can gain

that the time will come when 1t will be

Chauffeur Blamed With
Careless Driving Bv jury

A coroner's jury in Seattle
composed of six men from River

turned verdict declaring that
X. Brondix. chauffeur, was neces-
sarily careless in driving up to
the Interurban railroad crossing,

death of DR.. Edmund NJ. Rininger

REASONS FOR AND AGAINST
PROPOSED SCHEME SET FORTH

That it is simply a scheme of tidefat real estate
spectators to unload their unavailing holdings on
the people at large.
That the people would never adopt the Wapato
waterway scheme so the port commission could do
nothing with it.
That for the development of the N. P holdings
the city commission and will handle that and
keep it city enterprise from which the city will
reap the benefits.
That having nothing, the port commission would
simply be another burden on the taxpayers.
That once created there is no way of either re-
calling the commissioners ever abolishing the
commission, but it would go on forever, an incubus
the people.
That the port commission has no power to
acquire, condemn purchase secure in any way
lands to lease for new factories.
That the city itself can do this is already doing
1T and proposes to do more of it, and that the city
commission can handle all the port development
needed and do it without any additional expense and
without bringing the whole county in on the deal
That the people already are paying 100000 in
terest on the bonded debt and they do not want
$loOOOO year more added for port commission
plan.

CRANE OBJECTS To
REDUCTION ON SUGAR

(By United Press Leased Wire.)
WASHINGTON, d. c., July 81.
Senator Crane of Massachusetts,
led the attack in the senate today
on the house tariff revision bill,
maintaining that the tax on sugar
does not come larger on the poor
and that the house bill removing
the tax would in no degree lessen
the cost of living on whom It
presses hardest.
Every civilized nation taxes
sugar." said Lodge.
Those, best able to do so
largely ay the tax because they
are the chief purchasers of those
luxuries in which sugar is used.
The free sugar theory embodied
in the house bill appears to be-
that if the duty on sugar Is re-
moved the entire benefit will
come to the consumer"
The democratic minority of the
senate finance committee filed It's
report today on a substitute for,
the house sugar bill.

Fort commission boosters are working hard TO
carry the election next Tuesday and create port
district of the whole county. The speakers report
it difficult to get the people to understand the
scheme.
What It Means.
Briefly the law if adopted Tuesday will pro-
vide as follows:
The whole county will be constituted port dis
trict.
They levy 100000 taxes year for office
expenses.
They can issue 50, 100000 in bonds on the whole
county, if so ordered.
They can condemn land and construct docks and
lease them to private parties.
They create assessment districts, open wa
teways half the cost to the abuttng property
and make the whole county pay the other half.
Reason Advanced for It.
Those who working for the proposition pre-
sent the foor7ng reasons why they want the port
district:
They say it will mean the opening of the tide
flats
That it will give needed facilities for additional
ocean commerce.
That it is necessary because the city cannot issue
bonds enough to do the work needed and the county
must be brought in to help.
That the development will benefit the whole
county.
That it will make it easy for the people to get
what they want in waterfront development
That the port commission cannot do anything
without the peoples vote for it. there is no danger
in adopting the proposition.
REASONS AGAINST IT
Those opposing the scheme argue as follows:
That the port commission is unnecessary
