ERIN'S HOME RULE FIGHT
sIR HICKs-BEACH ADDRESSES
THE BRISTOL ELECTORS.

LONDON, June 20.-Sir Michael Hicks
Beach addressed the electors of Bristol
yesterday. He said the government
schemes would be dishonorable to Great
Britain and disastrous to Ireland and
must lead to separation or civil war.
The rights of Ireland in regard to gov
ernment were neither more nor less
than those Of Great Britain.
"We ought" he continued, "to
equalize as far as possible political
privileges and disabilities throughout the
kingdom, for which object the imperial
Parliament should be in Ireland as well
as in Great Britain supreme. In practice
and in theory under the union ireland has
full representation and accruing infu-
ence.
INTIMIDATION DENOUNCED.
"POlitical organizations cannot be per.
mitted to seek their ends through intimi-
dation backed by outrage and crime. The
prevention OF this is not coercion, but
vindicaton OF constitutional freedom.
The political instincts OF ireland cannot
be satisfied by plans for depriving her
sons of fun share in the government of
the empire. Concessions would only pro-
mote further disintegratiOn. In such
crisis old dividing party lines ought to be
forgotten ana one great effort made to
preserve the unity upon which depends
the strength of the empire"
GLADSTONE CHEERED.
AS result of the Saturday incident the
police to-day c0unselled Mr.. Gladstone to
drive to church, Notwithstanding the
Scotch antlpathy to driving on Sunday.
The carriage was accompanied by crowds,
and upon returning 10 the hotel be was
even cheeTed. "Eh. m0n," said an on
locker, they're cheering on Sunday"
The News says: "Mr. Chamberlain's
speech Saturday. though we may attach
Overmuch significance to it, indicates
that be may be found supporting the bill
when it appears in tue autumn" The
News urges Mr.. Chamberlain
on the ground that his present
action is tending to elevate Lord Sails
bury, If he really desires to reunite the
Liberals to assist the GladstOnans in the
present struggle. By so doing he would
be in a position to assist in moulding a
new bill according to his wishes. Com
menting on the Churchill manifesto, it
says: I'VE may well ask Mir. Chamber
lain whether he is prepared to commit
the destinies of the country to this pOlIti-
cal spirit. The manifesto is as insulting
to Ireland as to Mr.. Gladstone, and is
such an expression of passion as Is hap
PLY unusual in English politics."
CHILDERs' PLATFORM.
Mr.. Childers, Chancellor of the Ex-
cbequer, in his electoral manifesto, advo-
Gates an Irish elective Parliament em-
powered to deal with purely local mat
ters. He says he cannot consent to any
plan for dividing the power between an
lriSn and imperial Parliament incOn-
3istent with the supremacy OF the latter.
The Parnelltes appointed to take
charge of the irish vote iii Great Britain
will leave Tuesday for the various dis
,rtcts to which they have been assigned.
Thomas OCOnner will remain in Loadon
nd be assisted by DR.. O'DOherty and B.
telly. A great demonstration will be
eld Wednesday at st. james Hall in
kVOr OF the GladstOnian candidates in
be metropolitan districts. A deputation
Ulster PrOtestants, cons sting of cler-
gmen, magistrates and merchants, in
fvOr of home rule, is coming to London
address several meetings under the
aspices of the British Home Rule Asso-
catiob.
CHURCHILL'S MANIFESTO.
Lord Randolph ChurchilPs manifesto to
Tie electors OF Paddington says peoples
dissolution has come upon us. such is
tn title given by Mr.. Gladstone to the
INST wantOn political cOnvulsiOn that
10 our times has afflicted this
cdntry. By the caprice of an
inividual elevated 70 dignity by act
Ohhe people, by the boundless egotism of
tn Premier, the kingdom is to be dis
united tor the purpose Of securing office,
II only for little while, by
To, aid of dsoyal factions,
INSISTING upon foreign gold. The
government has been deserted by all who
coud confer upon it character or reputa-
tiOL Mr.. Gladstone has reserved for his
closing days a conspiracy against the
hODr Of Great Britain aud the welfare of
lrehnd more startliDgly base and nefari-
Gus nan any of those numerous designs
and llOts that for quarter Of century
haVe0ccupied his imagination.
RESULTS IGNORED.
No are the results of the repeal of the
unioLa matter OF moment TO him. No
practical responsibility will fall upon his
shoulders. lie regards with inc0n-
eeivaHe friyolity the fact that
upon his successors will devOlye
the impossible labor of rebuilding the
shatteed empire. Let the credulOus
electonte give him majority TO aid
which another Irish revolution may be
consumnated, aud this most moderate Of
minlstes Will be satisfied TO c0mplacently
retire {, repose. Nature cries aloud
nature 20 whose cries he has so long
turned adeaf ear.
INSANITY TRAFFICK1NG IN TREASON.
Lord churcbil stigmatizes the home
rule bill ls "insauity, trafiiekng in trea-
son, c0ncOning crime, eXalting dislOyalty,
abasing oyaty and m0nstrous mixture
Of imbeollty, extrayagance and political
hysterici."
lie ridcules the anticipated beneficial |
results from the bill, and anrms |
that "ihe united and concentrated |
genius of bedlam would strike IN /
vain TO Troduce more striking issues OF
ahsurdiG than those grayey recon-
mended ~ senile vanity 10 a people re-
n0wned FOR common sense" Mr.. Church
III strongly denOunces One.man power

tho commercial depression, delyaed re-
forms, ilering from injustice and law
lessness in Ireland, discredit and blood /
shed abroad and colonial alienation.
THE BErRAYER OF KuARTOUM.
He also speaks OF Mr.Gladstone as "the |
betrayoi OF Knartoum, guilty OF GOrd0n's /
death, the patenieo Of the Pcnjdeh shame, |
feleoted by the Democratic House OF Com-
mons. 40 longer able 10 conceal bis per. /
