A reasonable explanation of the Cork t
verdict is that it was returned under a sense of mortal fear. There was not a slagle juryman who did not feel in his beart that if he failed to find the witbert ties guilty he would be marked down for destruction. The verdict is, one of the most impressive proclamations that I Land is completely under a Reign of Terror Any other finding would have provoked the vengeance of Sinn Fein- a midnight visit by an armed gang co pletely maaked, a crucile thrust into the Land of the victim, and quick exit across that bourne from whence no traveller returns.

Austin Chamberlain has a bad Prese for his Budget. The principal objection is that be levies no less than £198,000,000 of additional taxes, or about the total amount of taxation before the war, upon a coun try that was already taxed on a gigantic scale Moreover, there has not been any evidence that the Government has attempt ed to cut down expenditure to set their. house in order a becomes rigid preachers of economy. The Chancellor's proposal to increase the Excess Profits tax when the businese community were expecting the total abolition of the impost is the most unpopular festure of the Budget; and this is condemned as an unjustifiable continua tion in peace time of a tax that was levied as an urgent and d'exceptional innnovation

THOSE PROMISES DOVAN
In one respect the Budget is bound to barm the Government: it will inevitably bring retribution, as a Times leader pre- dicta, because performance has fallen so short of election promises. The popular Press demands to know why the Germáns sra-not being forced to relieve the British taxpayer by handing over some part, at lomat, of the indemnity.
