English Criticism.
LONDON, June l9.-The Telegraph Con
servative) says Mr.. Gladstone's Edinburg
ovation is powerful, but it does not face the
true issue. He failed to perceive that his
plan involves separation while his oppo
neuts occupy firm ground on union. Lord
Salisbury has sensibIy pointed out the FIRST
duty of the Government-a duty too long
nepleoted-is to restore order in Ireland.
The News (Ministerial) says Mr.. Glad
stone struck the key note when he said this
election is the peonIo's election. The ques'
ton resolves itself milo Home Rule versus
Repression. The people will not be fright.
ened by bugbears that Lord Salisbury and
his allies are coniuring.
The Standard blames Mr.. Gladstone for
dishonesty in declaring the Home Rule
bill was dead, when o few weeks ago he
declared he would never reconstruct it.
THE so.cslled principles" continues the
Standard, might mean anything. Mr..
Gladstone does not give any details OF the
contemplated scheme because be ia unable
to defend them. He gives instead empty
platitudes. Lord Salisbury on the other
hand offers a well defined extension Of 10
cal self government coupled with the con-
tinued supremacy Of the Imperial Psrlia

The Times says: II we had to describe
Mr.. Gladstone's speech in a single phrase
we would say, ut is too clever by half"
He has surpassed himself in audacious
quibbling with plain issues, in juggling with
empty phrases, in is2afilg n pervert-
ing notorious facts and setting at defiance
the logic of common sense. After begin
