Criticising Lord Harrington.

LONDON, Aug. The Standard, conf
menting on the meeting of the unionists,
saws that Lord Hartingtons language is
all that the Conservatives have a right to
expect There is little doubt, it says that
as long as Lord Harrington continues of the
same mind home rule for ireland is an i'm
possibility He still seems to dream of
reuniting the scattered hostile Liberal sec
tions instead of looking to new division
OF parties more in harmony with the exist
ing state of public opinion. This, to our
mind. is the only weak point in his concep-
ton of the present crisis.
