AGENTS FOR THE IRISH STANDARD.

THE IRISH SITUATION.

At the present time the indications IN
the political horizon Of Great Britain
are that the Toy party in the new Par
llanent will be large enough to oatnun-
Der all other factions combined. The
latest accounts to hand show that the
total vote pollcd up to the present time
is: Conservatives and Unionists, $780,
623; Gla1stonjans and Parnellites,
.1.32O,64S. The number OF members Of
the different parties elected ere: Con-
seryatives, 323 Liberal Unionists, 73 !;
'Gladstonians, 1873; Parnellites, 36.
Whether the Tories will be able to con-
duct the affairs of the country adyan~
tageously wish their doubtful majority
is g matter for serious conjecture. In
the Parliament just dissolved all Glad
stone had TO hope for WIS recruits, but
in tho Government which Lord Sails
bury will form he cannot expect to at
tract any strength to his side from the
other political parties composed Of men
WHO have sole1nhly pledged themselves
to support the issue upon which they
went TO their constituents. This beng
the situation if is difficult to see how
Salisbury can profit if he gains this vic
tory.
The cable brings us the intelligence
that an agreement has been arrived at
by which Salisbury accepts Hartington's
Home Rule policy, which involves the
maintenance Of the full powers of the
Imperial Parliament. BY it the powers
conferred on local councils in Ireland
are delegated, not surrendered by Par
lament, which body reserves the right
to control and revise the actions of the
council. The appointment Of judges
and The legal administration are centered
in the lmperia? Parliament.
Although Harrington has pledged
himself TO support coerciye measures
aud The general policy of the Conserva-
tivos, it is stated that he still feels reluct-
ant to join Conservative Ministry.
One thing is certain that the Nation
alists will never accept Hartington's
scheme in it's present state, and the
fight will undoubtedly continue until
The passage Of the full Giadstonian mea-
sure has been secured. The granting
OF some tritling concessions Of local au-
tonony to Scotland and Wales. who are
virtually out OF the fight, and improving
the condition OF Ireland in minor ra-
tho would be ,neagre satisfaction to a
country that has been forced to submit
to innumerable in,iignities at the hands
OF Il despotic government for seven CEN
turies.

THE PARNEIL MOVEMENT" BY T.
2. O'CONWOR, NJ, P.

This is q work Of transcendant merit.
1t is brought out by the grand move
mens N lavor Of justice to Ireland now
agitating all civilized nations. But it
has much more than transitory inter-
est. It is a complete and impartial his
tory Of Ireland during the last forty-fve
years. It will be read with deepest in
terest by students of history hundred
years hence. No one that desires to
understand Irish affairs thoroughly
ought to be without copy Of this
masterly production. The fairness and
impartiality with which the author treats
the O'Connell movement and all other
honest efforts to break the CALLING chain
that has bound Ireland for seven CEN
trries. are in admirable good taste. AL
together this is one Of Che greatest works
ever written on Irish affairs.
The work is published in this country
by the Benzigers, and is for sale in
Minneapolis by John McAllister & Co.,
2124 Washington avenue south.

OK another page we publish a letter
from Cardinal Manning to friend in
America in reply to the Rev. Mr.. Ar
thur on the Home Rule question. The
letter is remarkable one and explains
in great measure the position of the
eminent churchman on this all-absorb-
ing subject. A remarkable coincidence
in connection with the letter is that at
recent meeting in Market hall, Rev.
Father Byrne used nearly the same ar
gument as that now used by Cardinal
Manning. The argument we refer to
is the tolerance of our forefathers in
matters religious.

AT the regular fortnigbtlv meeting Of

AT the regular fortnigbt]y meeting of
the National League in Dublin on
Tuesday the treasurer announced that
donations received from the United
States for the parliamentary fund
within the past two weeks amounted to
$50 600 T. NJ. Healy in an address
said /: although Irlshmen were disap-
pointed at the result of the elections,
they should not be despondent. The
defeat was but temporary. One million
electors had written Home Rule on
their polling papers, as against the un-
holy assistance Of triple alliance. A
coalition government could not exist
three months

The first speech delivered by Mr..
Parnell in the British House of Com
mons was delivered On the 22d Of
April, 1876. He was accompanied by
Mr.. j. G.. Biggar and although his
speech is said to have been a strong
one, it did not command much atten-
tion from the other members of the
House. To-day when the Tncrowned
King of Ireland speaks. he divides the
honcrs with the British Premier;
The Irish standard., 1886-07-17
A DENIAL.

The statement recently made by Lord
Harrington that the Home Rule party
and National League are in union with
American Fenians has been denied by
Mr.. Parnell thus:
81 know nothing whatever of any Fe-
nian organization in ireland or America
beyond what [ have learned from the
newspapers. I have never had any
communication with che leaders of such
organizations, or accepted any alliance
with them. / do not even know who
the leaders are. No union OF the Ma
honal league and Fenians has ever been
proposed. I should never have con-
sented. have always successfully en-
deavored to keep the National league
within the strictest bounds of legality.
In spite of the unblushing falsehoods
which have partially and temporarily
frustrated the moderate aspirations of
Ireland, the Irish people will continue
to maintain peaceful and legal aspect,
declining to afford any pretext to Lord
Harrington or his Tory allies to resort
to the brutalities of coercion.''
In making the assertion Lord Hart
ing evidently intended to draw from the
side Of Mr.. lParnell few of the
many loyal British subjects who are ard
ent supporters of the Irish cause.
The Irish standard., 1886-07-17
SHOULD MR.. GLADSTONE RESIGN?

Mr.. Labouchere writes to the london
Daily News urging Mr.. Gladstone MOTTO
resign, ON the ground that he has ~ ma
jority on everything except the Irish
question, and that the Unionists are not
likely to support a general vote OF want
of confidence in him.
The British Premier would not be
violating any constitutional principle by
remaining in office until the House OF
Commons by a formal vote declares that
he no Logger posses its confidence. Of
late years it has been the uniform prac~
tice Of governments to resign when the
people return an unmistakable verdict
against them at the polls, even without
waiting for the meeting of Parliament.
Undoubtedly this is the most patriotic
course, as it enables those whom the
people prefer to make the necessary
preparations for giving Parliamentary
effect to their policy. But, as Labou-
chere says, Gladstone may have ma
jority on everything else but the Home
Rule measure, consequently he may
consistently retain Office for all indefin-
tie length of time.
Should Mr.. Gladstone pursue the Lat
ter coulse and meet Parliament with
measure that would be acceptable to all
who have pledged themselves to support
Home Rule for Ireland, and by this
means secure majority, he could GER
tainly have better claim to beregarded
as the peoples choice than either Sails
bury or Harrington. In Glad stonian
circles desire that he will resign ap-
pears to prevail. He will hold con-
ference with his colleagues to-day.

MRS. GLADSTONE has earned justly
we believe the title of 1.-THE grand old
woman Recently she made O. little
speech at Mile End, in London,
in favor of the Home Rule
candidate. and it was one worthy of
the great conlmoner, who is himself
without doubt the most effective plat
form orator speaking the English
language. Mr. Gladstone is proud of
his estimable wife. and so shonld any
man who possessed so humane a
woman.
The Irish standard., 1886-07-17

ONE of the most conclusive proofs of
the assertion of Mr.. Parnell that the
fight was one OF the masses against the
classes is the fact that while the
wealthy English Catholics voted with
the Tories, the middling and poorer
classes, almost to man, supported Mr..
Gladstone.

CARDINAL MANNING writes that he
himself would be as likely as any man
to know what the Pope has done in the
present political contest, and he does
not hesitate to say that the rumor of
the Pope's telling the clergy how to
vote is utterly fabulous. He says the
men who believe in such reports,
which are merely election tricks, know
little Of the Catholic Church. If any
such orders had been issued, he and his
colleagues would have known Of them,
but none were received or issued.

THERE are some Of the opinion that
the defeat of MIR. Gladstone. at the
present time will cause him to retire
from public life. IF the majority we're
50 large against him that it would pre-
clude the possibility of the settlement
of the case within year or two, he
might possibly do so, but it is scarcely
likely that this will be the case. While
he is very old man now, and lacks
the strength to fight as in years gone
by, it is more than probable he has
made up bis mind 10 make the passage
Of this measure Of peace and reconcilia-
tion the crowning glory of his brilliant
career, and despite the fact that he has
long since fulfilled the allotted years of
man, he will remain at the head of his
party until he has achieved this last
great triumph, It is to be hoped that
he will.
