GLApsrONE's SPEECH

Mr.. Gladstoue's great speech in the
British Parliament the other day marks an
epoch as momentous in many of its
aspects and assured consequences as did
the firing of the first gun at Lexington or
Sumter. Its echoes, too. will be heard
around the world" 1t is worthy of note
that this man who sways the destinies OF
the mightiest empire on the planet is
plain Mr. Gladstone, with no tinsel badge
or aristocratic frippery about him. He
stands up in the simple but marvellously
impressive dignity of the Commoner and
proceeds to crown splendid life-work
BY decentralizing the empire and terminal
nc the fierce feud of centuries between
England and Ireland.
Ii is formidable and complicated task
with which he is confronted Deep root
ed prejudiccs have to be appeased, clash
ing interests to be reconciled, ignorance
and passion 10 be overcome. How dis
couraging is the outlook may be estimat>
ed when we reflect that bis effort has
been deprecated or denounced in advance
by such men as Huxley, Lubbock and
Tennysou. Many years ago the London
Times proclaimed that any proposal look,
ing to the repeal of the act of the union
must be deemed AS visionary and sense
less as proposal to restore the Heptar
chy. The declaration was repeated and
endorsed at an influential mass meeting
in London the other day. Yet Mr.
Gladstone's plan has tae repea
of the act Of union for its cor
ner stone Coercion has been fully
tried and is found to be no remedy Ire
lands chronic discomfort and misery are
a scandal as well as menace, and the
sole relief is to be sought in giving bach
to the people of that island the contro
and administration of their own affairs
If the British colonies did not enjoy that
right they would soon cut loose from the
parent; enjoying it they are contented
and prosperous. The average bushes,
man can conduct his own affairs more in
telligenlly and successfully than hi.
neighbors can do it for him The very
same principle applies to towns anC
counties aud states Much friction ant
delay will doubtless be encountered be
fore Ireland will secure n separate legis
islature, but the delay will arise from th,
adjustment Of details rather than iron
any formidable hostility hereafter TO tn
pivotal proposition.
