ExTRAvAGANT CHURCHiLL.
He Says Everything Mean of Glad
stone He Can Think OF.


LONDON, June 21.-Lord Randolph
Churchill's manifesto to the electors of
Paddington, says:
A peoples dissolution has come upon us.
Such is the title given by Gladstone to the most
wanton political convusion that in our
times has afflicted this country by the caprice
of an individual elevated to dignity by an act
of the people. BY the bounGless egotlsm Of
the premier, the kingdom is to be disunited
for the purpose of securing Office, if only for
q little while, by the aid of a disloyal faction
subsisting upon foreign gold. The government
has been deserted by all who could confer
upon it character or reputation. Gladstone
has reserved for his closing days a conspiracy
against the honor of Great Britain and we'll
fare of Ireland more startlingly base and
nefariouS than any of those numerous de-
signs and plots that for a quarter of a century
have occupied his Imagination. Nor are the
results of the repeal of the union
a matter of moment to him. No practical
responsibility will fall upon his shoulders.
He regards with uncomfortable frivolity the
fact that upon his successors will devolve the
impossible labor of rebuilding a shattered
empire. Let the credulous elector give him
a majority to aid which another revolution
may be consummated, this most moderate of
ministers will be satisfied to complacently
retire to repose. Nature cries aloud. Nature
to whose cries he so long turned deaf ear.
Churchill stigmatiZes the the home rule
bill as Insanity, tratficling in treason,
condonng crime. eNulting in disloyalty,
abusing loyalty, and monstrOuS mixture
of imbecilty, extravaganza and political
Mysteries. He ridicules the anticipated
beneficial results from the BILL and afflrms
that the united and concentrated genius
of Bedlam and Colneyhatch would strive
in vain to produce more striking tissue of
absurdities than those gravely recommended
by senle vanity to people renowned for
common sense" Churchill strongly de-
nounces one-man power and holds Mr..
Gladstone responsible for the COM
mercial depression. delayed reforms, suffer-
ings from injustice and lawlessness in Ire
laad, dscredit and bloodshed abroad
and colonial alterations. He also
speaks of Mr.. Gladstone as 1.-The
! betrayer of Khartoum," guilty of Gordon's
death; the patentee of the Penjdeh shame:
rented by democratic house of commons
no longer able to conceal his personality
under the shelter of the Liberal
party, avoided by the leading light
of non-conformty now demanding
avote of confidence in himself,
a political expedient borrowed from the
second empire" Churchill concludes:
Gentlemen, it is time some one should
speak out. I have written you plainly,
English vocabulary may contain of planness
and strength Is inadequate to describe truly
or paint realistically the present political
position ut this critical moment. We
have not to deal with the government
party or policy, but with a man who
makes the most unparalleled claim of dcta-
torial power conceivable by free men. For
that reason have deliberately addressed my
self to personal attention of the question and
have drawn the character of the claimant
from recent history. Mr.. Gladstone ut Edin-
burgh on Friday recommended himself to
the country in the name of Almighty G Cd.
others cannot and would not emulate such
odious profanity; but dare, soliciting re-
newal Of your confidence, to recommend to
you the policy of the Unionist party in the
name of our common country and of the
great empire, upon whose unity and effective
maintenance SO largely depends the freedom,
happiness and progress of mankind.
A DOUBLE INSULT.
LONDON. June 21.-Commenting on the
Churchill manifesto the News says:
We may well ask Mr.. Chamberlain whether
he is prepared to commit the destinies of the
country to this political spirit. The mani
festo was insulting to Ireland rs to Mr.. Glad
stone, and is such an expression of party
spirit as happily is unusual In English
politics.
