Home Politics.

The present Bill in which is laid down cortain regulations for the government of Ireland by a Parliament in that country can not but appeal to the unprejudi- ced as a fair and honest attempt to settle a question upon which loods of orntory, oconne of rancour and whirlpools of party projudice have been expended-until the mere montion of the question now absolutely disgusts anyone with a modicum of fairness in thoir hental make-up. Is it really seriously believed that if Ireland... is granted what obviously should be benelloin to her, that En- gland and perhaps the rest of the Empire will suffer in conse. quence, that she will remember

But, in point of fact, the price of beef in Hongkong has been absolutely unaffooled by local cattle being shut out of the Philippines, and inasmuch as the value of the cattle annually imported from China (oxclusivo of French Indo-China) is well over a million dollars, the foot that the local price of beef has not ✨ been olieapened recalls to our mind the Report of the Food Commission appointed in 1900. That Report stated that whilst it, was difficult, by means of direct evidence, to prove that a com bination exists with a view to keeping up the price of meat, the Committee expressed the opinion that the fact that STRANGE TRANSACTION—practically the whole supply
