THURSDAY. ,IAN VARY 1st. 1891. POOR IRELAND. TiiI:::E has been no public event for a len; time Se painful as the sit.l,lea e:al":epee of the Ifieh move- ment for j1w,a:t1C rule. Tltli incidents accompanying it are such as to de- ter indefinitely the success of a renewal it the etTo•t, a+ li. the most satisfactory explanation would be .that 'gr )?arnoi1 is. in eoixle degree deranged. Itis course toted speeches in Ireland been such as to iti.-tity this view. I'lxt?y have but 4.9tsf3t:ttaed what we. said when they be . n, that hs was pulling down the templo nem himself and Ins tz.- `I'll€' e t c -t alas proceed i;ag. noon English. ojaattiott is not doubtful, ;:i.t'e it is eery probab.e that he has s'. cured coo inn d Tory control of the. British government. In that event, the conduct of the meet si'cce steel cd Irish leaders will have wleefor.;:i,ed the lie:ept' at the be -t friends of Ireland. If it lee IX et din result of insanity, thele is some'hiiig- inexpressibly ludicrous in the spectacle of agree., political leader at d statesman, as he I1as ben called, flying through Ireland, frantically appealing to the :rot from a wagon, blacicguarding his tidies and old friends, breaking. into a newspaper ufaice with a crow- bar, and finally engftgt'd in a Dearly - brook row. Events move so rapidly that something more serious may have c'ccnrred before these .words ate printed ; Etand his campaign closed in blindness, tho e. d would have been tragical. It is impossible that the scenes in Ireland should net have a _profound •-..mn ,ct upon English opinion, The alliance r` roan like Gladstone with such a person as Parnell must now seem to the averaga English observer preposterous, and the Irish cause will suffer accordingly._ Giving a tramp a meal may have re- formatory influences in it, but the one who gives the tramp work and sees that he dues it, is more serviceable tea society. No reflections can be cast up. on the men who are trying through free meals and other kindnesses to benefit the unfortunate and bring thein into smooth paths, but there Can be a (lues• tinning of that method of action, which is based union pauperizing principles, fur thegiving of melte a''tl clothes in- discriminately to the needy has a tend- ency to pauperize them. They won't work as lone; as they can get food and sustenance for nothing. The only way to mire chronic laziness and whiskey hunger, and tint is what is the matter with the majority of those who seek assistance in this way, is to give work to the needy ones. Tet tlteent know that the meals they receive aro the re- sult of their labor, not the result of charity, and they will think more of then(, for what a man .earns by his own industry is sweeter to him than what he acquires for milting or without labor. * i f' Tho Tisa.' , following the custom of the time, wishes its friends a ]appy New Year,and hopes that aiTairs niaybeproa. pert.us with them as they are with it. This is the time of the year when such civilities are more significant than at any other, when there seems to be a spirit abroad witch softens men's na- tures and brings them nearer to each other in sympathy and affection. Therefore tho Times hopes in deep sin- cerity that its thousands of friends may have all the happiness which follows the Juin of good at thia and alt other tittles. Happy themselves it is their duty to impart their happiness to others so that all may rejoice together and there may bo no sorrowing anywhere. The Tions delights to sac the bustling, happy throngs on the streets, the crowded stores, the men and women Laden with presents, and tho laughing children, joyous with their toys ; and while it knows that such -Eva never tlola�apl.laf tar Vit" among us, it hopes that er,v eryoao may have the means to Part ciliate in them, and add to the gen- era .,, ley. It is certainly very dteubtful:' whether the Liberal party can stand against the feeling of doubt and disgust which the spectacle in Ire- land produces in England. 14Ir. OI3rien's hope of compromise showed a want of appreciation of the situation even when he sailed. No kind of compromise was possi- ble, because Parnell had betrayed his real feeling and:purpose, Davitt stated the point of the controversy precisely in asking at Ktlkenny, " Will you choose Ireland or Par- nell?" The situation is one of the most melodramatic political scenes in English history. It seems to in- volve the close of Gladstone's career as well as of Parnell's, Republican Congressman at Wash- ington contemplate taking characteris- tic revenge on the incoming Demo- cratic House of Representatives. They have introduced a bill to prohibit the sale of liquor within the district of Col- umbia after Nov lst, 1891, The fun of the proposed legislation lies in the claim set up by the Republican organs that It will block the proceedings of the next House by stopping the member's grog just before they begin business. It would be obviously impossible, they say, fora Democratic Congress to do anything in a cold water tow. It would have to adjourn to Chicago, Brooklyn, or some other more hospitable locality. But the Democrats are not dismayed, for the Bill is not likely to pass, and if it should, they will set it at defiance. The scheme. however, is a brilliant sample of American humor in pol- itica.
