Perhaps Mr. Cleveland could steor him into a few Washington real estate deals that would overcome that diffi- culty. TaE fight against the Geary law for the exclusion of the Chinese is becoming sufficiently animated to justify the be- lief that the law will be repealed. Noth- ing will be lost if it is, for it will never be enforeed. IN ADDITION to all of the other things (that Uncle Jerry Rusk has done to make ‘his place seeure in history, he has given the American people a winter that will make his name a household word for generations, A CONTEMPORARY that probably has information from the inside says that the coal monopolies ave not mining coal for fun, The natural inference is that they must be in the business for their health, for they declare with impressive solem- nity that there is no money in it. PERHAPS the lection of Judge Gresham for a cabinet place would show that Mr. Cleveland desires to surround himself with clean and competent men, but it would hardly show him to be a great politician. A large clomont in the democratic party would resent it. ——— THE total lack of bluster on the part of the British government in relation to the Hawaiian affair may be taken as a pretty sure sign that Great Britain has \no idea of gaining any advantage for therself in the adjustment of the case. She generally pursues the opposite lcourse in all matters having any inter- ‘mational bearing or significance. THE value of irrigation, even at great ‘eost, has been fully demonstrated in the Larid regions of the southwest. A con- tract has just been let for the construe- tion of an irrigating canal in Arvizona ithat will be seventy miles long, with an average flow of six feet of water, and (will cover 160,000 acres of land. The ex- pense of building this great diteh will | be 82,000,000, but it is believed that it | vill bo highly profitable. ll\Al“ render fruitful an immense territory that is ‘now unproductive. WHEN the hunn\h \hrmnilnp City of Nuw York sails from Liverpool on the 25th inst. she will bear the American flag and will belong to the American line. She will be given a warm recop- tion when sho reaches New York. The City of Paris, also now balonging to the American line, will presently fly the stars and stripes, and several new ships equal to these ocean greyhounds will ba added to this fleet as soon as they can be built. There will be nothing afloat su- perior to the American vessels from this time forth. THE gorrymandering legislativo ap- portionment law of Indians, which was declared unconstitutional by a republi- ean supromo court, has fared no better at the hands of the democratic supremo eourt which has lately come in. The new court has denied the application of the attornoy general for a rehearing | and thoe legislature will have to pass a new law.

That the session of the British Parlia- ment which bsgun Tuesd vill ba of ptional interest seems clearly indi- cated in the opening discussion of the proposed policy of the government. opposition gave unmistakable notice of its determination to wage a vigorous warfare against the I[rish home rule plan of the new ministry, and by way of doing this both Lord Salisbury and Mr, Balfour indulged in crit m of the gov- ernment in terms so similar as to show that they had a perfect mutual under- standing as to the line of attack. The former declared that ‘“the keynote of the Irish policy of the government was supposed to bo the support of the erimi- nal classes,” and that *“the prerogati of the crown had been used to shield murderers and release dynamiter Mv. Balfour, referring to the release of Egan and Callan, asked whether this action was part of a policy of amnesty “intended to involve the release of all the Irish dynamiter and charged the secretary for [reland with having used the crown prerogative for political purposes, this being simply a modifi- cation of the laMruage used by Salis- bury, which undoubtedly more nearly expressed the sentiment of the opposi- tion, the bitterness of which was di; closed in the further remark of the e premier, that “‘all the acts of the gov- ernment caused the impression that it was much more in sympathy with crim- nals than dasirons of vine ing the law.” The reply of Earl Kimberley to Salis- bury appears to have been exceedingly tame, but the brief synopsis of Mr. Gladstone's answer to Bal- four indicates that the ‘‘grand old man" is still equal to the demands upon him. He reproached Balfour for criticising a measure not yet before the House and for seeking to create prejudice against a plan of which he was ignorant. Doclining to reply to the invective ainst the administration of Ireland, Mr. Gladstono simply marked, by way of its vindication, “the wise policy of clemency had been simultaneous with a great decri of agrarian erime, Thus was outlined what promises to ba one of the most interesting and important contests the British Parliamont has konown in recant years, deriving peculiar interest indeed, from the fact that it will proba bly be the last fight Mr. Gladstone will be permitted to make for the cause of home rule for Ireland. he veteran statesman is in his S84th year, and al- though his intellectual powe impaired he eanuot in the things bo expected to much longer ve- tain the physical vitality necessary to meet the arduous demands of political conflict and grave public duties. Peaple everywhere, therefore, who are intes- ested in the question of Irish hdbma rule will regard with more than ordinar concern the progress of the battle whi Mr. Gladstone has rencwed in bahalf of that"cause.

The old green- | back, or bank note, that has passed through hundreds of hands, and been in all sorts of pockets, and places, must | inevitably absorb a great deal of unclean and unwholesome matter, and it is by no means incredible that disease germs should be thus generated. There is one reflection in this eonnection that may serve to somewhat relieve any popular fear which may avise from the discus- sion of this matter, and that is the fact that bank clerks, who are constantly handling paper currency, do not suff in health ofrom, but it by a to assume from this, there is no dange Allowing for som>» the danger from uncle it is nevertheless manifestly desirable to get vid of it, and while this would cost the government something, the ex- pense should not be when is in- treasury make replac- paper and this perhaps is no that | exageration n paper eur as conside alth volved.
