Idly thin the plan , which wo hear dlacntsEi
from lima to tlmo , of annexation la thl

ballovo. The tendency la certainly In
tint direction. The present reckless ad-
mlnlatratim of alTilrs Is not at all sails
factory to the pjoplo. The country ha
baon plango.1 into debt , and her tax-pay' '
era are groaning nndor the bardon ol
heavy taxes and hard tlmos. Slnca the con
federation In 18G8 the population baa in-
created 50 per cent , and tha wealth haa

which building operations have not coma
almost to a standstill. lu none of the
provinces would a farm sell as well to

All this is charged up to the present
method of government , and the Canadi

a radical c'hang ? , which will imko a "gov-

THEN AND NOW.
Abriliain Lincoln is continually npotheo
sized os a patriot , yet ho was only elx weeks
in cilice when every offica worth having was in
the hands of the republicans. Graver Cleve
land hru been president eix months to-day
and lets than fifteen per cent of the office a
are held by democrats , Omaha Herald.
If cur Wfinory is not at fault , Abra
ham Lincoln went into office at a tlmo
when one-half the democrats hsd loft the
oflhes vacant , and the nuj irlty of the
other half of the democratic office
holders wore in sympathy with thojo
who had seceded. It was ueceesir/ that
the places should ba filled with men who
were not suspected of disloyalty , and
hence the republicans wora rapidly put
into oflice , although Mr. Lincoln was
very alonr In removing democrats who
were positively known to bo loyal to the
union. At the breaking out of the
war a largo number of the federal
cilices la the north were filled by south
ern democrats , who all resigned to join
the confederacy , aud it was but natural
that their vacant places should bo filled
with loyal republicans. In Nebraska ,
for Instance , Da Londe , of Loulihnn ,
a brother-in-law of Judah P. Benjamin ,
wai register of the land office at Brown- ;
villtj John A. Parker , of Virginia , was
register ot iho hnd cfiioa at Omaha ;
and W. IT. Moore , of Arkansav , was
United Slates marshal. Those men , with
other office-holders from the couth , re
signed their positions In order to take
part In the rebellion ,
That Abraham Lincoln did not have
much confidence in democrats In those
dark dtys ii a matter of surprise to no
one , and it would seem that Orovor ;
Cleveland has not much moro confi
dence In the spolli-hanting element of
the democracy of the present day. At
lout that is the infereuca from tbo
Tlernkl a complaint that although Cleve
land h s been president for ilx months ,
leas than 1C par cant of the oflioes are
held by demccrate. The fact Is Mr.
CloveUnd has appointed quite a number
of rasaa ! to office , owing to deceptions
practiced upon him by designing polltl- (
cliuip , aud for that reason ho bacprobibly >
concluded to go very slow hereafter.
Udder thu circumstances he la to bo
commended for his alow and cautious
oiiree.

The Parnoll pronuncl&mento continues
to bo a topic of discussion. It is by no
means a now declaration on Parnell's
pail. Ho has uttered it before , bul at a
time when he did not possess the power
that ho has lately acquired. It is not the
present ntloranca th t oxcltes any altrm ,
but Itishlapresontpower. His declaration ,
however , marks the ro-commencamnai
of an agitation in Auglo-Irleh affairs that
will not easily be put down. Ireland's
'uncrowned king , " as Pa-nsll his been
called , U evidently determined to mcko a
u 1 final effort to achieve self-govern
ment in tbe shape of legislative independence
donco for Ireland. His pronnnciament ?
caused a verlteblo whirlivlnd of , excite
mcnt in England , for it
revealed not only the vast in
fluence ho oxorta upon his own followers
and on the Irish people , but gave an ox-
pllolt warning to English politicians that
ihe first soaalon of the new parliament
wonld bo the last In which Irish members
would deign to take part. The declara
tion took England by surprise. Since
Is cub Ication the London papers have
distinguished themselves by denunciation
of Mr. Parnoll and IrUh aspirations that
> ro charac'erfzed by much ferocious ill
iiimor and palpable and wilful rnlscom-
ireliemlon of the questions at lain. Pa
pers of all shudcs of politics joined in at
tacking the nationalist loader , and have
warned him that , although England Is
willing to grant a certain amount of local
eolf-govcromont to Ire'and , she will never
content to a repeal of the nnlon and the
separation of Ireland from the omplro.
There is no lack of the obstinacy with
which the English press and people re-
'CBO to cvon try to understand Ireland's '
claims , for Parnell said no wcrJ nbcut a
: otal separation of Ireland from tha cm-
iho which Is the policy of the fenlans
ind nol of the homo rule leader. What
Jlr. Parnoll did say , in words that leave
10 room for misunderstanding , was that it
, ha rationalists with to eouro legislative
ndepnndene. ' , end thai they rbfuio to
sntorl&in for a moment the projtci of
ocal board or county government , which ,
apparently , conservatives and liberals
alike seem to think ought to bo eminently
sufficient to make Ireland contented and
irosperotia , There la a world of difference ly

Clifford Lloyd to the London Times ,
containing a proposition to abolish the
'Ice-royalty hat attracted much attention ,
UV. Lloyd dealrea to abolish not merely
iho vice-royalty but tbe eocretarysbip for
'
'raland , and to put Irish as well as Eag-
Ish afhirs in tbo hinds of the home sec
retary. Ho desires this upon the ground
hat "the tendency of haIng a distinct
secretary of state for Iro'and would bo
o parpetuite the notion of divided Inter-
ets. " No doubt doing away with the no-
Ion of divided interests would bo an enoi
nous gain for Eoghnd , bul so long as

of the Irlih people abollknj the eec-

It Is not very long alnro there was
special effusion In tha relations of Spain
and Germany. This was produced main
ly by tha mobbing of King Alfonso as an
'Uhlan king" at tbo Instigation of cer
tain politic Parisian journalists. Thn
courts nppaar to bo as fond as over ol
onch other , but the Germans have con
( rived to dlegnst and anger the Spariiil
pooplo. Considering that Iho Span
isrda are the most sontitivo pcoplo
In Europe on points of national
dignity , the graceful tact which distin
guishes Garmau diplomacy might have
baon expected to yield tome euah tesulU.
Tha adoption by Germany , lu the pureull
of her schemes of colonization , cf the
bullying methods of Great Britain in the
old days when Great Britain was MI r.g

Currency Io given to a rumor that the
czir , out of his imperial grace , is about
, o grant Raesla a constitution. Tnla
would ba an act of personalprndonco on
the pert of the czir. An autocrat who
gees about in dally fear of his life , in
aplte of thn protection of a big dcg , fs In
BO eorry a Mtuatlon that If a constitution "
will seethe his pursuers ha will naturally
glvo them a constitution. It is
not likely that constitutional gov
ernment will do itnaala any immediate
goad. The country does not contain ma it
terial for a representative assembly. An
upper hoaao of the Russian nobles , us
they have bean delineated by Russian
writers , would bo a corrupt and unlntclli
gent body , bat It wonld ba no moro cor
rupt than the lower houao which wo
might expect to sao chosen. Ultimately ,
of course , the chaago would bo for the
oottor , and U would have the Immediate
advantage to the czir of diverting Indig
nation and dynamite from himself to the
conservative party in the RusiUn parlia
ment.
Tbo bill to provide for the federation
of the British Australian colonies was
ono of the measures which the Into par
liament completed. Of the eix colonies ;
concerned , but one , New South Wales ,
refuses thus far to agree to the plan. It :
it probable tint the recent war ilarras
may txert a powerful inflnenci for con
viction on the obstinate colony , however ,
end certainly events seern calculated to
glvo an Impetus to the federative move
ment. For there can bo Httlo or no doubt
that the ultimate destiny of tbo
Australian colonies is Independence , and )
Is to ba expected that tbo resnlta of
war between tha mother country and
Russia would ccnGrm and strengthen the
tendency in that direction , Federation ,
moreover , naturally presents Itself as a
manifest benefit in advance of Independ
ence. Regarded solely from the commer
cial point of view , tbo measure la urgent
demanded. Without it much ot the
productive energy of all the colonies
mutt bo expended in the promo
tion of mlaohlovouj and enfeebling >
>
rivalries. There must always bo a temp
tation to adopt hoslilo fitcal rnoaanrcs
against ono another. The petty politics '
small colonies inevitably tend to foetur a
narrow buslncsi views and mean enmi <
ties. Unconfedcrattd , the colonies will e
remain vreak and exposed to external ag E
gression. United , they are already capi- COIn
bio of opposing a vigorous and even
formidable roilatanco to a foreign enemy. Jfi
There can ba no future for them apart thwl
from ono another , as there could have wlSi
been no future for the American colonies Si .
without union. at
id
England has long bsen prepared to
grant the request of her Australian col lu
onists , and the question la only of the
rlponetsof the time. It it not , however ,
neattsuy to colarelndopendcuco because
federation Is accomplished. So long ai
the connection with the mother country
beDolich ! to bath , it Is prudent to
maintain at.
