PARNELL, THE NEW TORK ‘MERALD,” AND THE LORD MAYOR OF DUBLIN. ‘To the Editor of The Chicago Tribune. Cacao, Feb. 3,—The snob editor of tho New York Herald and the flunkey and toady who is “Lord” Mayor of Dublin are cx- ceedingly wroth because Mr. Pamell has hatk tho temerity to resent their attacks and exer pose thelr seltemes to belittle his inission In ‘Amesien, Both the gentlemen have griev- ances against Mr. Parnell. “Lord Mayor Gray Is member of Parllament from Tlp- porary, and at one time aspired to the lend- ership of the Lrish meinbers, but, lacking tho courage nnd ability of Mr. Parnell, notswith- standing tho support of his own paper, the Freeman's Journal, has dismally fatled so tar. Attributing his fallure to Mr, Parnell, he has several times tried to besmirch that gentleman. Lust fall Mr, Gray published an article in his paper in which he charged Mr. Parnell with calling his colleagues * Cow- ardly Patist rats.” ‘This charge, If proved, tt was thought would destroy Mr. Paruell’s influence among the Irish Cutholles, who would naturally resent the term ‘‘Paplst,!? but twas proved thut the expression used was “ Cowardly rats,” and this tho Lrish peo- ple generally indorsed, ‘Thus was Mr, Gray conyleted at the ‘same time of being a Mar anda coward.
