The Irish standard., 1886-06-19

Harrington gets and deserves credit
for honesty in his opposition to Home
Rule, but Chamberlain is everywhere
denounced, and justly denounced, for
his demagogism and treachery.. The
sole reason why he antagonized Glad
stone was because he imagined he
could destroy him as he has destroyed
the political influence Of Harrington.
but the ''Grand Old Man" is more than
a match for Chamberlain, a fact the
latter will soon discover to his cost.
The mastery way in which MI. Far
nell exposed the claims Of Ulster by
showing that only in the three north
eastern counties of Ireland is there a
Protestant majority to claim separate
Legislature Of it's own by any right or
title, demolished the arguments of
Saunderson and Johnson and Chamber
lain in a very effective manner, and his
declaration that Ireland will never give
up single Irishman shows that thelrish
party and people have not the slightest
intention Of waging war on the minor
ity.
Messrs. Joseph Arch and Joseph
Leicester, Liberal members of the
House of Commons, on behalf of the
labor element in the House. have signed
manifesto addressed to the "Sons Of
Toll and Artisans of England The
denoument denounces the unholy Goa
lition between their Tory foes the
Wings and the so called Radical seced-
ers, and implores workingmen to sup
port Mr.. Gladstone and those Conser-
yatives who are not in favor of coer-
cion. The adherents of Joseph Cham
berlain and the Marquis Of Harrington
have each different plan, says the
document, and if they are returned to
power they will jointly attempt to Leg
islate for Ireland, the result OF which
would be pande onium.
