Show TRIUMPH trim THE sensational developments in the ynes parnell proc proceeding eWing before the commission in london of late are very important they place the matter in such a light as at once dismisses the case against the irish leader before the worlds jury and we have do doubt a similar finding will be had by the court havi having nithe the proceedings in charge one thing is well assured parnell has won and the times lost morally whatever the outcome otherwise may be the confession of the witness pigott was not wholly unexpected he says that the principal letters which he sold to the times tanea as par nell nells s were forgeries of his own and admits in addition that his bis evidence in relation to them on the stand was perjured when to this is added the fact that pigott cannot be found and that the attorney general and solicitor both representing the times are apparently bewildered and know not what course to take the breakdown break down would seem to be complete it is more than a victory for parnell it is a vindication a promotion it takes him from the ranks of the plodding politician and makes him a patriot in the estimation of the world the dignified and patient demeanor with which he has borne all the proceedings whose object was to make him infamous for ever and the manner in which he has met and overcome all the obstacles arrayed against him and hla his cause would seem to place him upon a metaphorical pedestal in the estimation of those who concur in the outcome the times has placed itself in a peculiar position it has used its power and prestige as the foremost journal of the world to crush a man to whom it was opposed politically and bring the cause he represents into the contempt and subject it to the scorn acorn of the world it has signally failed money has been lavished to that end while the man who was pursued was comparatively penniless and but for the assistance of friends could have made no fight against his pursuer the cause and the man surely stand high above the pursuer now |
