HOME RULE VICTORIOUS.
.,g (From the COmmOner.)

Home rule for Ireland now seems
sure. 1t has passed the house of
commons by over one hundred ma
jority The house of lords will, it is
reported, reject it, but according to
new rules this only means two years
delay. Then if the measure passes
the house Of commons again it be-
comes law Notwithstanding the Pro-
test of the lords. AS the issue has
been submitted to the people 1t
would seem quite certain that this
great reform, to which Gladstone
gave so many of the best years of his
life, is nearing realization. 1t is a
long delayed act of justice to the
Irish people and will be generally ap-
proved throughout the world.

THE REWARD OF THosEWHo LA.

fion, because he has been one Of the
many, who upon all appropriate oc-
n casfons has done all that he could
with tongue and pen to secure this
i victory.

committee had selected Senator David

ic national -cdaEvention at Chicago, the
writer Joined with others in a protest
that he now recalls with genuine
pleasure. 4,
sss Senator HILL had fairly won the dis
5stinction Of being known as the income
Il tax killer, and his selection as tempo
rary chairman Of the national con
vention was a challenge to the pro-
\ gressive democracy Of the nation, and
the challenge was accepted. At that
time the writer was secretary Of the
Iowa democratic state central COM
3mittee, and he used his position and
every power which he possessed to
secure the selection of someone else
1 IN Mr.. Hills stead. =
1t is one Of the duties OF a nation
al committee to select the temporary
Chairman, and conventions seldom
refuse to recognize the person
/ 80 selected. That custom gave
n the national committee big
advantage; but, on the other
hand, the defeat OF Mr.. Hill would be
g far-reaching victory. It would be
a notice to aspiring democratic states.
I men that they could easily blast their
political hopes by opposing an income
tax The contest was spirited and
upon roll call Of the delegates from
every state and territory Hill was
defeated by substantial majority.
That roll call did much to defeat the
democratic candidates at the elections
sot that year, but it did much to in
sure democratic success at the cleo
tons ct last year. And it did much
to bring about the final success OF
i the income tax measure.

Groom Pitches Well.
Manager Griffith did well when he sent
Sir Robert Groom back against those
champions who had driven him to the
stable but two days before. The angu-
lar chap pitched good ball. though the
Red Sox did bunch hits in two innings
for as many runs. Furthermore. Groom
drove in the run that almost won. 1t
was hard luck that took his victory
from him, for he certainly deserved
brackets for his days work.
Bedient pitched equally good ball and
yet he was hit hard all through the
game. Griffmen were on the sacks in
every inning of the game, yet the Bos-
tonian managed to crawl out win
