N Stephen Gwynne in London Observer. ister is mot demonstrative but it was novel and pleasant to see in the Belfast Telegraph a leading article in praise of the'Lord Mayor of Dub- P lin, who with perhaps doubtful legality but usdoubted courage has declared that he will rule out of or- der from the start any proposal to increase salariés while people are starving; and consequently he al- lowed no discussion on the Report of a Committee gn Electrical Supply. | Also in a debate in the Belfast Y.M. C.A, one of the Labor members in L the Nortnera Parliament advocated t an opposition in very useful, and sal plainly that Mr. n i he came in might play "a beneficial part." This also has been said very often in private conversation; it In the view body would "nd pan advance to gel public frankness in the North as well as in the South. I note also that Belfast is congratu- lating itself because once more Lora Pirrie's yard has the leading output | of all shipbuilding firms, and be. cause the Harbor Board is going to spend £100,000 in further improve ments. Over and above this, there have beeti long-continued festivities to celebrate Lord Castlereagh's come ingeof-age. The North isivery anx- ious to keep its big houses open and the old families in them. I think there is a great deal more of the same spirit in the South than 1» commonly believed. Miss Lizzie Riseley, daughter of Alfred Riseley, South Mountain, and M. 1.

The Emperor of Germany and Italy had a hard time during the | Middle Ages. - Almost all the time there was a revolt going on some- where in his empire. In Italy, he often came to blows with the pope, who claimed a good deal of the land. Besides the pope in- Italy, there were cities In "the north which were hard to manage. Milan, Pisa, Genoa, Florence and Venice were five cities which broke away from the emperor. They said they would rule themselves, Quite a few smaller towns did the same thing. - As you would expect, the German emperof fought to get them back; but they were tough fighters and beat him off. A man who lived in Milan wrote down some "facts about the city." He sald there were 200,000 people there. If so, Milan was bigger than the American city of New Haven, | and twice as big as Duluth. That ame writer said there were 13,000 houses in Milan. That would make about 15 persons to a house. There were supposed to be 200 doe- torg and -80 schoolmasters. Italian cities boasted of a num- ber of good-looking houses; in which lived the richer citizens. Heavy walls of stone, with towers here and there, kept away enemy armies, As a rule, each town was gov- erned By '"'consuls." They got the name from the men who used to govern Rome. Bome towns, like Rome, had two consuls, had from four to twelve. People in the fred' cities often grew excited over law cases, If the judge said a man should be punish- ed, the man's family and friends were likely to shout: "No! He must not be punished! The judge is not fair!" Then there would be a battle to set the prisoner free. In an effort to make law cases go smoothly, men from out of town were often chosen for judges. They were not supposed to have any rela- tives or close friends inside the city walls, They were not even allowed to eat or drink in the house of a- citizen. This system helped to calm things, but it did not cure ali trouble. Pris- oners were torn from the hands of their keepers. The judge sent of- ficers of the law to catch them at their homes. Sometimes the house was burned. This caused still more ill-feeling. In spite of such events, the cities | of northern Italy kept their freedom for hundreds of years. They became stronger and stronger.
