A measure of home rule for Scotland Is
moving rspidly through the British House
of Commons and will presently give the
House of Lords provocation for a fit.
Scotland Is not In great need of a local
legislature. Now and for years past all
measures of a local nature affecting Scot
land are invariably sanctioned by- the
menbers of Parliament before they are In
troduced, presenting a marked contrast
with the treatment accorded Irish members
with respect to Irish measures. Whether
the measure shares the fate of Irish home
rule In the House of Lords, It Is but a
question of time, and that not very distant,
when the necessities of imperial legisla
tion will fores the reluctant torles to separ
ate local from Imperial affairs and conflna
Parliament to. national legislation. At the
present time the, press of trifling local
matter so Impedes consideration of meas
ures of national Importance that Parlia
ment Is swamped from one session to an
other. Emigration to the United States from all
parts of Europe hss fallen off to a marked
degree compered with a year ago, notably
ao from Ireland, where it touched the low
est point known In many years. Several
causes are assigned for, this, to Ireland,
gratifying showing. The Improved state of
the country, the Increase of land owner
ship, bringing a greater area under cultiva
tion, together with Industrial revival, af
fording increased opportunities for the
young people, were decidedly helpful In
promoting home content. Another reason
may be found In the halt of prosperity In
the United States, and the conaequent fall
ing off in remittances from this country to
Ireland. To the well-wishers of Ireland
the cause Is Immaterial. The bare fact Is
caus for general congratulation.

The last of tha Inlqultoua coercion acts
with which the history of English ru e in
Ireland Is reddened has been condemned
by the popular branch of Parllsment. A
bill for Its repeal passed the Itotiss of
Commons by a majority of 124. Whether
the House ot Lords will vote for repeal
remains to be seen. The act In question
was passed twsnty-one yesrs ago, while
all Britain waa celebrating the Victorian
