The Tribune says on yesterday's disclosures in Dub lin: "These plots were formed in New York. The money was raised here, the agents selected and sent out to do their work of destruction, and they were not Irish refugees, but Americans. These are facts which the United States government will haTe to face. If there is no law, lo cal, state or national; under which these crimes can be punished the time has come for its enactment. Govern ments of Christendom will be forced for mutual protection to discriminate between political offences and dyna mite crimes." Orcgonian Special. This is in the same vein as the London Economist, which says: "It is,we believe, true that England could not compel America to suppress Irish conspiracies, but ic is not neces sarily true thntshe could notindace her. The Americans-a grave,kindly and, in the main, religious people are certain not to tolerate for long an avowed 'war' against a friendly people carried on by their own quests, by means against which not only their own con sciences but their own views of the expedient and fitting instinctively re volt. The Irish vote is strong in the Union but not very strong, as the 'Know-Nothini;' movement showed, while the Irish Irreconcilable vote is very weak. Sooner or later the Ameri cans are sure to decide that 'this thing must end and the moment that is decided neither the constitution of the Union nor the laws of individual states will prevent the will of the people from becoming executive. The Irreconcilables would then be at war with the whole world, an impossible position, as indeed some of the wildest of themselves public! ac knowledge." Put into plain English this means that the Economist expects the people of the United States, because they arc "grave, kindly and in the main religious," to exe cute a sentence of Judge Lynch upon the "Irish Irreconcilables" without regard to "the constitution of the Union or the laws of indi vidual states." It would be dif ficult to put into word a more baseless and preposterous expec tation than this, or one more in sulting in its essence to the char acter and common sense of the American people. Undoubtedly the condition of Ireland is a source okvexation and annoyance to the United States, and nothing is more likely than that the people of the United States may decide sooner or later that '-this thing must end." But it by no means follows that the people of the United States, when they come to this decision, will decide that in order to bring "this thing"' to an end the Union must be set at naught in order to put the "Irish Irreconcilables" at the mercy of the English government. Eng land may learn something from the story of the relations of the United States with the Cuban in surrection and the Spanish govern ment. The revolt against Spain which began in Cuba in 18G8 en listed the sympathies of many peo ple in this country. As the strug gle went on it became quite clear that the arsenal and the treasury of the Cuban rebels were estab lished in the United States. Cu bans in the United States orjran ized association and torpedo bat teries and gunpowder plots against the power of Spain in Cuba. The Cuban cause was warmly and openly supported not only in the press but on the floor of congress. Spain remonstrated with the Wash ington government against all these contributions to the rebel lion, at least as earnestly as Eng land now remonstrates against the shelter afforded by our laws and customs to Irish refugees sus pected by England in dabbling in dynamite. But Spain was told that if she wished to see an end of this thing she must make an end of it herself, by making an end of Cuban discontent and disaffection The administration of President Grant said to Spain in substance: "How can we put a stop to these conspiracies and these manifesta tions of sympathy with the Cuban insurgents against your rule ex cepting at the price of a profound modification of our system of government and of a most serious interference with the individual liberties of the American people? . We decline to pay such a price for the pleasure of obeying you." And the result "was that Spain found herself compelled to put a stop to the rebellion and to re store public order in Cuba. It was John Stuart who said in Parliament in 1SG6 that when the captain of a ship or the master of a school found it necessary to re sort continually to the cat-o-hine-tails or the birch in order to keep his crew or his classes quiet and at work, nothing more was needed to show that there must be some thing out of gear in his manage ment. "When a government finds itself compelled to resort continu ally to force and violeuce in order to maintain a show of peace and in a given country, who can resist the inference that the government in question does not know how to govern? The writ of habeas cor pus has long been suspended in Ireland, trial by jury has been dis pensed with, and aliens may at j any moment be expelled by the government without atrial. Every newspaper which comes from Lon don teems with offensive comments on the United States and on American citizens. The .Econo mist is a notably calm and reason able English journal. Yet what can be more offensive than the in- timation so broadly made by thej Economist that a desire to secure Irish votes is at tho botto a of our impatience of England's inability to deal effectually with Irish dis content? As a matter of fact, not one "native American" in twenty has any wish to see Ireland em broiled in war with England. But certainly not one "native Ameri can" in twenty wishes to see Ire-! land compelled by British bayo nets to maintain a connection with England whieh breeds only mur ders in the one Island and dyna mite explosions in the other. Mr. Bright said in 1SCG that -Uf the majority of the people of Ire i land, counted fairly out, had their will and had the power they would unmoor the island and its fasten ings in the deep and move it at least 2,000 miles to the west." What was true of Ireland in 1SGG is not less true in 1883. Ameri cans arc not responsible for this and Americans regret this, without reference to the origin of the feel ing, whether in tradition of race or in tradition of religion. The feel ing, whateverer its source may be, is a constant menace to the repose of the United States as well as to the prosperity of Great Britain. The exchange of angry notes growing out of this feeling be tween Lord Granville and Mr. Frelinghuysen would disturb vast interests on both sides the Atlantic. Americans, therefore, are deeply interested in dealing fairly, calmly and effectually with the difficulties between England and Ireland out of which this dangerous feelinjj arises. But they cannot accept the excited passions of England as safe guides to action on this side of the Atlantic! Under the laws of tho Unitod States myriads of Irishmen have been induced to establish them selves in America. They have be como American citizens. Of course they sympathize deeply with their fathers, mothers, broth ers, sisters and kindred left be hind them. How can that be pre vented? Men's sympathies and opinions are free, and the speech of men is free in America, nor can a man's freedom of speech be in terfered with here, no matter how violent he may be, unless his speech tends to the injury of some one living, like himself, under American laws. To go from New York to London is not a crime. Assassination is as odious here as in England. Americans are as averse as Englishmen from terror ism and dynamite as means of correcting misgovern men t But what Americans will insist on is that the British government shall summon up good sense and ener gy enough to restore order, peace and contentment in Ireland.
