that Mr., Parnelns triumph Ia merely ques
tion OF time, Mr. Gadstone's confession
that the English parties cannot be trusted ID
resist the Irish pressure while Mr., Parnel
has power 10 sustain or overthrow Englial
ministries has had an especially depressing
effect ON both Wing and Tory loyaluta
Every lriShman sees clearly that Mr., Parnel
will have this power In the next parliament
unless some Unforeseen and az yet most un
likely division should spring up among th,
Irish members themselves

Harrington II has decided many aver
Ing Nationalist members 10 support the
Tories at the general election by making
clear the immense advantage which the
Irish party would obtain by bringing about
something like an equalization OF power bo
tween the Liberals and the Tories In the
new parliament No decision has yet been
reached on this important point, but since
Mr., Gadstonoa speech many Irish members
who were formerly In favor OF supporting
tho Liberals have changed their opinion,
and will vote whom tho time comes at the
polls, In both England and Ireland, In favor
OF supporting tho Conservatives
Should the Parnollites finally decide Ia
adopt this course they expect that sixty soAtl
