The Bin for the Relief of ireland

The Bill for the Relief of Ireland.
1t rs asserted quite positively that Mr..
Gladstone has about prepared his bill
granting home rule to Ireland and that
he will offer it within three or four
weeks. Contrary TO all expectation
it will be, 1t is announced, a very
sweeping measure and will deal In
a comprehensive way with govern
ment, lands and social order. A few
weeks ago it was regarded as
matter OF the greatest Importance
whether a bill TO adjust the land question
or one to provide home rule should be first
submitted to Parliament, aud II was even
said that grave differences Of opinion
would appear In the Cabinet when this
matter came up for settlement. Ii seems
that Mr.. Gladstone proposes TO avoid any
differences among his advisers by dealing
with all questions relating 70 Ireland in
one great bill.
II is probable that the proposed bill will
pass the House of Commons by a very
respectable majority. but il IS thought
that it will not get twenty votes in the
House of Lords. The dissolution Of Par
Lament will probably take place soon
after the Lords reject the bill, and the
sentiment OF the country with respect to
it will be sought. II the Liberals are vic
torious the Lords will, OF course, have to
yield.
There seems to be considerable anxiety
TO get the bill introduced as soon as pos
sible as there Is feeling thAt It's success
depends largely upon Mr.. Gladstone,
whose health is very preearieus, and
whose death, at almost any time, would
not occasion very great surprise. The
Liberal party must do whatever is TO be
done for Ireland, and there IS not much
probability that 1t will hold together as IL
exists to-day, very long after Mr.. Glad.
stones death. The anxiety OF the friends
Of Ireland for the prompt considerati on
OF measures for Ireland's relief is there.

Edmunds' Ambition.

There is very deep interest in the de-
bate which Senator Edmunds began yes
terday in the Senate on the question of
the Senate's right to information rela-
tive TO removals. Mr.. Edmunds doubt
less hopes to add something to his
already great reputation as a debater. 1t
is said that he has thoroughly prepared
himself on all the points that are likely to
be raised during the debate. Perhaps he
expects that he will be able to make him
self sufficiently prominent in this strug-
gle with the President to insure his nOmi-
nation as the next Presidential candi-
date of his party. Indeed, it would
not be surprising if he were aiming at
that nomination rather than at making
clear the truth respecting the claim of the
Senate to know the reasons for which re-
movals are made.
There has been some question whether
the President wrote his message relative
to removals. There does not appear to be
any reason to doubt that he did. Indeed,
it is now stated with great deal of posi-
tiveness that the first information any
member of the Cabinet had about it was
when it was read at the Cabinet meeting
The message has had the effect of in
creasing the reputation of the President
for ability and sound common sense. Mr..
Edmunds will have considerable trouble,
if, indeed, he succeeds at all, in convinc-
ing the country that the message is not
pretty close to the truth.
