LEEDS, Oct. ia meeting Of the Lib
erals was held in the Town Hall tonight,
John Bright presiding. The Chairman
made a speech. during the course Of which
he said il was absolutely necessary, if any
progress was to be made ON the question Of
Parliament reform, that the question
should be dealt with first. He recon
mended that the Government deal, dur
ing the coming session, with the Country
Suffrage and London Corporation Reform
Bills. There is one question, he continued.
which Is not very remote, and which
will have TO be faced, namely, the
constant conflict between the Lords and
the House Of Commons. The conflict ID
full OF peril to one OF them and humilia-
ton to both. The Houses must be recon
ciled and made equally responsible to the
national wants. In conclusion, Mr.. Bright
said: my political career is drawing
very near its close, but l cherish the hope
that my country will in the changes that
are before them exhibit the wisdom and
moderation which becomes intelligent
people," Bright's speech was received
with loud cheers. Herbert Gladstone fol.
lowed. He approved the assimilation OF
the county and borough franchise, but
doubted the ~expediency Of making such a
bill q primary question next session,
arguing that Parliament ought to deal
with the London Corporation and County
Government bill before dissolution, which
must inevitably follow the passing Of the
Reform bill.
