PARNELL'S NEW MANIFESTO.
lie LITERALLY DENoUNCEs THE Liberal
PARTY.

ParpclI has issued manifesto 10 the
electors of Great Britain and 1Icl1nd, say
ing: The Liberals are appealing TO the
electors for support undor false pret"nces.
They have a grantly violated s'l.mH
pledges which they made to Ireland, and
for which they should be denounced.
The coercion practices rcsorted to under
their regime were the most brutal OF oil
known coercion measures; juries were
packed in an unprtce Tented number OF
cases, AMI with positive shamelcssncss.
Innocent men were hanged or sent to the
living death of penal servitude.
"Twelve hundred persons were impris-
ened without trial, and ladies' ware ar
rested under an oD;olrts act which was
directed against the most degraded of
the sex. The press and public meetings
were suppressed, ss il ireland were Fo.
land and the administration in England
were Russian autocracy."
"Thc representatives OF liberalism In Ire
land have left more hatefull memories in
ireland than any statesmen for the past
century. The landlords instead OF maxi
ing the reasonable abatements in rents,
which the dept' saion in agriculture de-
mand-d, and which every landlord in
Eagaud and Scotland conceded, would
be evct,aS their tenants by wholesale.
Under the name of tree schools the liber-
ais art making M assidions attempt 10
crush. regiltus educators aud establish a
state of tyranny and intolerance, to fet-
ter the national canscientt; therefore, VIZ
feel bound tn advise that no confidence
be placed in the liberal or radical party;
and, as far as possible, to prevent the
government from fnIihg into tho hands
OF party so pcrtitlious, treacherous and
incompetent.
The Irish nationalist should not vote
for liberal or radical, except in some
few cases, in which some courageous
fei'ty IN tho Irish in the las! parliament
has given garantee that the candidate
did not belong to the servile, cowardly
and Snprinciplad herd. who would brca k
every pledge aud violate every principle
in obeyancc to tho call Of the whip or the
mandate ot II caucus.
