SUPPORTED BY KINDRED PEOPLES IN HIS EFFORTS
A LIBERAL MEMORIAL
LoNDON, May 3.-Mr. Gladstone in his mani
festo Just issued to his Midlothian constituen Is.
explains his great age has prevented his taking
part In the speeches of the Easter recess and has
obliged him to reserve his limited powers for
the House OF Commons and for that reason
he uses his pen instead OF his voice.
Continuing ne Gays: "Never have I known an
occasion when parliamentary event so rang through
ont the world as the introduction of the Home Rule BILL
From public meetings. from the highest authori-
ties In the British colonies and In
America, from capitals such as Washington
Boston, and Quebec. from remote districts lying
beyond the reacn OF ordinary political excite
ment I have received conclusive assurances that
kindred people regard with warm fraternal sym
pathy the attempt to settle for all
the troubled relations between England and
Ireland, which exhibit the only great failure OF
the political genius OF race to confront master
difficulty and obtain in reasonable degree the main
ends of civilized life"
Ameeting of the Cabinet will be held on Tuesday
when Mr. Gladstone will return to London.
Numerous Liberals have signed "a memorial to Mr.
GLADSTONE favoring the retention OF Irish representa-
lives at Westminster ami Imperial control Of the GUS
