THE REVOLT IN PENNSYLVANIA.
It is now evident that the Independent
movement in Pennsylvania has gone be
yond the possibility of reconciliation, and
that a war to the knife against the Cam
erons is about to be commenced. For a
long time efforts have been made to prevent
this revolt, and all possible arguments in
behalf of adhering to the temporizing and
futile policy of "reform within the party"
have been employed to that end. But the
only effect of these endeavors has been to
demonstrate more plainly the total im
practicability of obtaining relief in that
way. The Republican organization in
Pennsylvania has been so long under the
control of " bosses " that they have grown
to regard it as a family estate. While
Simon Cameron held the helm discontent
was kept in abeyance, for he was undoubt
edly a strong and able man, and knew
how to make himself respected as well as
feared. But since he retired from politics
and handed the management over to his
son Don, who has none of his great quali
ties, but all of his bad ones exaggerated,
the long smoldering disaffection has be
come unmanageable. And it was time, for
corruption and partisan tyranny had been
carried to almost incredible lengths. The
loyalty of Republicans, based on their
recollection of what the party had accom
plished in the past, was relied on to
bolster up a State despotism which was as
venal and shameless 'as Tweedism, which
excluded honest men from public life,
which gave power and pelf to a hoard of
rascally adventurers, and which enabled the
Camerons to run the State for their per
sonal advancement, and to defy the ex
pressed wishes of the rank-and-file in the
I most cynical and contemptuous fashion.
Experience showed that all efforts to
cure these evils from within the party must
be futilo, because the " bosses " had full
control of all the party machinery, and
could and did frustrate every attempt to
curtail their power. The late State Con
vention was the last despairing attempt
in this direction, and its result was so
preposterous that nothing was left but
open secession. The "bosses" proposed
to meet the Independents half way, and
their plan was characteristic. They were
to make the State ticket, and in return the
Independents were to put what they
pleased in the platform. So the most
lofty professions of reform appeared in the
platform, and above them was a thorough
" boss " ticket. The device was too crude.
The Independents had gone too far to be
hoodwinked by so palpable a deception.
They saw that the only object of the
Camerons was to obtain their votes, and
that when the "regular" ticket had been
elected, all the line platform professions
would be quietly ignored. It was too
absurd a thing to suppose that a ticket
chosen by the "bosses" could be relied
upon to put them down. The Independ
ents would have been very poor politicians
if they had not realized this at once. They
did realize it, and the result is that they
have rejected the olive branch, and de
clared war upon "Bsssism."
The outcome of the struggle can hardly
be anything else than a Democratic vic
tory, but the Independents understand
and are prepared for this. They have
ceased to be amenable to the "stalwart"
argument that every species of abase
within the party is preferable to a schism
which will defeat it. They do not believe
this. Tbey are convinced that unless the
present leaders of the party are thrust
from power it will become necessary
to crush the organization which supports
them. They hold, logically, that what
ever methods are necessary to put the
"bosses" down are justifiable, and that a
temporary defeat of the party cannot
weigh for a moment against the permanent
evils inseparable from further toleration of
the corrupt rule of these men. They have
for years been patient and hoping against
hope. Again and again they have yielded to
the urgent solicitations of the " stalwarts "
and have voted the "straight" ticket;
and year after year they have discovered
after the election that their complaisance
had only served to fortify the abuses of
which they complained. There would be
nothing to choose between the Democratic
and Republican parties if the latter could
be relied upon, like the former, to vote
the party ticket under all circumstances.
Theae is nothing to choose between the
Democrats and such Republicans as arc
found in the ranks of the "bosses." Old
Simon Cameron is reported to have said
the other day that he would vote for an
ox, if the ox had received bis nomina
tion regularly. , The doctrine of that
observation is the doctrine which corrupts
all political organizations eventually, and
which makes their dissolution necessary.
The man who will " vote for an ox,"
will vote for the worst scoundrel in the
country, and will support at the same time
the most flagitious platform of principles.
In short, this is UUramontanism in pol
itics. It is that stage of intellectual de
generation in which the freeman surrenders
his liberty and bis conscience to a political
priest, and accepts the absolution of the
latter as a full discbarge for all knaveries
and dishonesties conceivable. Such a
man in politics is as dangerous to liberty
as priest-ridden men are in religious mat-
tors. He will at the bidding of his masters
vote to establish an imperial dynasty as
soon as anything else. He has transformed
the political machine into a sort of divin-
ity, and be worships it blindly and un
questionicgly. Whenever a party has got
to the point at which it is prepared to vote
for "an ox," it has outlived its useful-
ness, and men who still retain their self-
respect, their independence of judgment,
their regard for morality and pure govern
ment, are under obligation to come out
from the corrupted organization, and op
pose themselves .to it. And this is what
is about to happen in Pennsylvania. The
nncorrupted Republicans have been forced
to make their election, and they have made
it. Hereafter " Bossiam" can expect noth
ing from them but opposition, and the new
movement will, almost beyond a doubt,
give it its death-blow in that State, and at
the same time encourage all the rest of the
country to shake off the yoke.
♦ ♦
THE ARREARS-OF-RENT BILL.
Mr. Gladstone has introduced the ar
rears-of-rent bill. It provides for the can
celing of all arrears, in cases where the
rent does not exceed $150, upon the pay
ment of one year's arrearages, and it
proposes to apply $7,500,000 from the
Irish Church fund, for the relief of tenants,
and to take $2,500,000 more from some
other fund. It is expected that $10,000,
--000 will cover the demands under the bill.
Of course the object of the Government is
to put a stop to evictions, and to put the
tsnanta in a position to avail themselves of
the relief afforded by the Land Courts.
There can be no doubt that the clearing off
of the arrears of rent in the cases of a great
number of small tenants will help them
very materially, and in combination with
the reduction of rents by the Land Courts
it may go far towards settling the land
question in some parts of the island. But
there are thousands of tenants who are in
a condition almost beyond help. They
farm a few acres of poor land, and their
holdings are so small, and their crops so
meager, that even if they lived rent-free
they could hardly make their living. This
class can scarcely be reached by any legis
lation yet proposed. It is possible that
nothing will help them but the increase of
their holdings, together with the creation
of a guarantee for lew rent during a long
period. One of the greatest evils in Ireland
has always been the minute subdivision
of the land. Even the poorest class of
cottiers have been accustomed to sub-let
part of their little '- holdings, and the
lowest class of sub-tenants have often been
paying the most exorbitant rents, for it is
notorious that the exactions of the land
lord class were never so merciless and
greedy as those of the tenant farmers who
sublet their lands. The arrears of-rent bill,
however, cannot but exert a marked influ
ence for good upon the Irish situation. By
checking and shortly stopping the evictions
it will restore hope to a large class from
which, in the absence of all expectation of
better things, desperation might have been
apprehended. It will remove the incentive
to agitation which has hitherto constituted
the strongest ally of the American Fenians.
And if the repression bill is rigorously
enforced coincident with the application of
the new relief measures, it seems possible
that the conspirator and assassin element
may before long find the country too hot
to hold it, and discover that tho Irish
people have at last something better to do
than waste their time in secret society
meetings, and drillings, and plotting against
their neighbors. This is what the Govern
ment looks for, no doubt, and unless some
new outbreak on the part of the Fenians
overthrows all calculations, the programme
may be successful.

EGPYT.
A temporary calm has come over the
Egyptian situation, caused, doubtless, by
the opportune advent of the French and
English ironclads, and the announcement
by those powers of an intention to sup
port the Khedive, and stand no nonsense
from Arabi Bey and the Ministers who are
under his thumb. It is reported that if
he shows any disposition to proceed to
extremities he is to be seized by Turkish
gens tTarmes, and taken on board one of
the allied ships until be cools down. It
is probable that the Egyptian trouble will
not go much further under these circum
stances. The Khedive has all the backing
he can desire. The Chamber of Notables
refuses to obey the Ministry. And the
indications are that the latter will have to
surrender at discretion. The native
army, as was to have been expected, does
not, after all, cut much figure in the case.
It was only useful as a menace against the
Khedive in the the absence of any French
and English ironclads. Now that they
have come, it will probably not be heard
of again, at least while they remain. And
it is best so, for the so-called " national "
agitation has been a farce and a humbug
from the beginning. The truth is that the
Egyptian people have been oppressed too
long and too much to have any national
aspirations. They have been very much
worse off than the French peasantry un
der Louis XIV. Since the English under
took the financial management of Egypt the
Fellahs have for the first time been re
lieved from extortion and outrage, and
have enjoyed something resembling the
protection of real laws. That is a situa
tion which it is desirable should continue ; -
but Arabi Bey's movement aimed at doing
away with it. His demand for a purely
Egyptian Government really" meant nothing
more than a return to all the abuses which
have for a short time been got rid of. The
intervention of France and England, there
fore, is directly in the interest of the
Egyptian people, and is entitled to the
support and approval of all the friends of
humanity.

Tbe Political Struggle In Congress.
Washington, May 18th. — Some doubt is
expressed to-night whether the bank bill will
be finally passed before Saturday. To
morrow is private bill day, and a majority
of the Democrats want the regular order to
prevail. Last Friday the bank bill was
called up, and Randall then successfully led
the filibustering movement that lasted two
hours. Private business or no business
was the Democratic fiat, and as the result
of the deadlook bo business was trans
acted. While there are quite a number
of Democrats who desire the bank bill
disposed of as soon as possible, a
majority have been restrained with
difficulty from filibustering against its pas
sage, and tbey may bs able successfully to
prevent action upon it for at least one day, if
the Republicans will move the Mackey-
O'Conner case as soon as the bank bill is put
away. Members of both parties anticipate a
bitter fight over this case. The Democrats
have decided to filibuster against it, and the
Republicans are at present without a quorum
of their members in attendance. There is a
strong feeling on the majority side that the
Mackey O'Conner and other Southern con
tested election cases must be acted upon at
the present session, mainly for the political
effect which the settlement of the cases in
favor of the contestants will have at the next
election. The Republicans will not surren
der control of public business to tbe minority
without a long and bitter struggle, and not
until it is apparent that a quorum of their
members cannot be obtained. The leaders
on both sides appear willing at the present
time to lay aside important business to make
a little political effort on the approaching
elections.

Washington, May — Lieutenant J.

Ilonse of Commons.
London, May 18th. — la the House of
Commons to-day Gladstone, replying to North
cote, said he hoped the second reading of the
repression bill would be concluded to-night.
If not, the debate would be continued to the
morning sitting of Friday. He would take
up the Committee of Supply Tuesday. He
wished to continue it from day to day. He
would take up the second reading of the ar
rears bill Monday. He would also ask for a
provisional supply on account for a month.
He would therefore ask the House to sit the
whole of next week, including, if necessary,
Saturday. " -• .
The Speaker announced that the only par
agraph in O'Donnell's amendment to the re
pression bill in order was that declaring it a
fatal obstacle to good government and tran
quillity.
U'Donnell denounced the bill.
Colonel Thurst, Liberal member for County
Cork, supported the bill. He condemned the
cowards who issued the no-rent manifesto
and did not protest against the murders com
mitted in support of it -
Gladstone stated that the warrant out
against Sheridan had not been canceled.
Trevellyan, Chief Secretary for Ireland,
re-elected to Parliament, was cheered as he
, ook his seat.
I Trevellyan called attention to the failure of
justice in Ireland. He declared that the
new bill would facilitate the summoning of
witnesses. The Government would bestow
to use their power with regard to public
meetings, and where meetings were held they
would regard less the utterance of the speak
ers than the evident intention of what was
enunciated. He defended the provisions of
the bill against the publication of seditious
articles. He said the Government had rea
son to think that in their effort to suppress
outrage they would have the assistance of
those who had become tired of the terrorism
to which they had been so long subjected.
Dillon maintained that the failures to con
vict were not tbe result of intimidation, but
popular sympathy. The bill, he declared,
would have no other effect than to provoke a
secret organization. When the measure ex
pired the League would rise again, and Par
liment would have to do the work over again.
The debate was then adjourned until to
morrow. • ■„,- .'.
The Situation In Ireland.
Boston, May 18th.— A cable from Dublin
to the Herald says : Eviction of tenants for
non-payment of rent has been resumed in
many parts of Ireland. The sadness and|aa
toniahment following the assassination of the
Irish Secretary had the effect of stopping for
a time the work of agitation, and taking ad
vantage of the situation the process servers
again prepared to oust tenants in arrears. Id
County Galway alone 300 tenant farmers have
been evicted inside of a week, and the work
goes on. While the national organizations
are yet in dread of making any overt opposi
tion, the measures of repression proposed in
Parliament are creating a revulsion of feeling
throughout the country. There was a
desire - and hope that the murderers
might be brought to justice, but now
the growing feeling is that Parlia
ment is determined to believe, no matter
what happens, that there are do good traits
or tender feelings in Irishmen, and means to
push oppression and coercion to extremities.
The result is that the fire of revolutionary
sentiment, which had been permitted to
smolder, bos been waked up by the action
of the House of Commons, and the repression
' bill recently thrust upon the people has re
kindled the fire. Already murmurs of dis
content and dissatisfaction are heard at the
course pursued by Parnell. The disclosures
made voluntarily by the Irish leader, • and
those forced by Forster, have had a very bad
effect, and a truce will not be tolerated by
the mass of the people engaged in the agita
tion. The feeling gains ground that Parnell's
1 opportunity to distinguish himself is slowly
' slipping away. The people are not in favor
of any compromise with the Government
which means complete pacification.
The revolutionary organization, which
I is a very large body both in Ireland and En
, gland, wants all it can get for Ireland. Every
, favorable measure proposed and adopted is
'. acceptable, but "more" is the cry, and
" more " will be demanded until home rule is
granted, and then many will insist on a com
plete separation from England in fact, Irish
independence and a republican form of gov-
e rnment. Parnell is not a member of the
' Irish revolutionary organization. It was not,
1 and is not, politic that he should be, but the
opinion of the Nationalists is that if be would
continue to be the Irish leader he must push
forward without looking back, and without
compromise or agreement that contemplates
a cessation of the Nationalist movement.
. Ths disclosures already made concerning
what to some minds appears to be flirting
with Gladstone are disliked and excite dis
trust. r . !r -,'.;'..''.-,.•• 7, .
The Anil-Jewish Movement In Kuala.
St. Petebsbubo, May 18th.— A rumor is
current that lgnatieff will resign the Ministry
of the Interior. His defeat in the Committee
of Ministers on the Jewish question pro
duced a dead-look. The Minister of Finance,
who sees clearly the great loss the exchequer
must suffer from the exodus of the Jews,
threatens to resign if the measures of lgnatieff
to accelerate the emigration of the Jews are
adopted. The majority of the Minister!
support the Minister of Finance. The dam
age done by the anti-Jewish movement, in
cluding houses, breadstuff* and other prop
erty destroyed and money taken away by tbs
emigration of Jews, amounts to 5110,000,000,
all lost to Russia. To this must be added
the losses resulting from the prevention of la
bor and profit not only of the Jews but
others during the riots, and from the stagna
tion of trade generally, which would increase
the total by many more millions.
