FRIN'S COMING EVICTI0NS
SPARKS BEGIN TO FLY IN THE
HOUSE OF COMMONS.

,a,,, One of Mr Harris Speeches
which PrecIpitates Heated Debate
A Charge that the Latter Belonged TO
.he Rtband Order Indignantly Re-
sented.
LONDON, Aug. 25.-The debate on the
address in reply to the Queens speech
was continued this evening. Sir Thomas
Fsmonde, Home Ruler, dwelt upon the
hordsbips of the Irish farmers. Their
rroduce. he said, was uusaleable, and 1t
was therefore. cruel barbarity for the
landlords to exact rents. 1t was sound
economic doctrine that when the profits
from the land diminish all concerned
should bear the loss and not the farmers
alone.
william Redmond, Nationalist, said it
WAS useless to discuss land settlement
now. The question was whether land
birds would be allowed to evict
tenants for not paying impossible
rents, and whether the Eng
ian would allow the Irish to be cast
into the roadside during t1e coming win
Ter. If the result was bloodshed, misery
and Outrages, the responsibility would
rest with the government, whose only
panacea was the appointment OF royal
commission.
BALFoUR BLAMEs PARNELL.
Mr., BaltOur. Secretary for Scotland, ac-
1used Mr.. Parnell of trying to make gov
ernment Impossible by the promotion OF
general anti-rent strike. The Parnellites,
be said, did not wish settlement between
landlords and tenants, but wished TO keep
open the agrarian sore.
Mr.. Skuart on behalf OF the Democrats,
denounced eviction, and said that the
Democracy would not tolerate coercion.
lrpla must be autonomous.
Maj. SauudersOn, Conservative, said he
would speak as landlord to retute the
parnellite charge that the Irish landlords,
Tor blood suckers. as they were pleased to
call the landlords [cheersl, were afraid
Lilo make their voices beard IN the House
nf Commons. lie (Saunderson) accepted
he challenge. Conservative cheers. Inc
Irish landlords were not afraid to accept
the Parncllite challenge on this or any
EOther point.
QUOTING MR.. HARRIS.
Mai. Saunderson quoted an extract from
the speech made in October, 1880, by Mr..
Harris, member for East Galway, in
which the latter said that if the farmers
shot landlords like partridges, he
would not blame them.

House in obedience 10 a summons and i'm
mediately asked Mr.. Saunderson to repeat
the quotation.
Mr.. Saunderson replied: "With the
greatest pleasure" and again read the
extract from Mr. harris speech.
