Ido not mean that nis has been in douvt and that he now feeis compelied to any deinagogical move to insure his continuance in the presidential omice, but I do mean to say that he Hinds himself able, without making any dep rture from the broad walk Of patriotic statesmanship, to riorm an act which Will absolutely dumbfouud he trickery of Qiay and prevent that political manipulator froin longer molding the’ vote to his seltish pnrpose. THE IRISH VOTE. Jt ts generally conceded tha if Cleveland could win back (o his party the voves of the Irish-Amer- icans wuo voted for Blaine in 1884 he would carry this state beyond a doubt and caus insure his re- election. It is ddinitted that bis famous retalla- on mi did much to Win back this element, Dut the republican accusation that his pronuncia mento on tue suLject Was not seriously meant has left many Irish-Awericans straddling the fence of doubt or stillentrenched in the camp of the enemy. ‘Theve are to be no longer left in doubt. as to the honesty of the President's position. ‘The resolu on to adjourn C may be adopted some day this week.

The President has not slept upon this important matter. What he uttered in his famous and ‘posi- tive message upon the subject he meant, Those who thought bis words at that time were idle emanations of the moment. do not know the man. His convictions upon any subject are not. only in- Vense but tenacious. This was abundantly proven by his giving his new life and new policy, while ‘practically endangering his ensured re- election, when he pronounced’ his great dicuum Upon tariff reiorm, He Was none tne less serious, although he has uot recelved the credit. for it, when he declared that Canada must be made to suffer for any injuries done to American com- merce or to American fishermen.

It looks to-day, however, with Senator Allison making @ motion for a recess instead of an ad- Journment, as though the republican Senators who have slept upon the retaliation bill which the lower house adopted had been informed of the master wove which the President invended making, but it is now expected uere by those in 102 Of the secret that this evasion wil alter the Presi- dent's determination, and it 1s believed that he will make an Ged for ulvering the strong opinions he hoids upon this subject.
