G1ADSTONE'S BILL TO 1--WE IRELAND A
SEPARATE PARLIAMENT VIGOROUSLY
COMMENTED UPON BY THE PRESS.
London, April S-Newspapers
throughout Great Britain and Ire
land comment at great length
on Gladstone's scheme for Irish govern
ment. The Liverpool Post says:
Whether Gladstone is successful! or
not in carrying his bill through parlle.
ment, he has forever killed oppression
and coercion in Ireland.
The Manchester Guardian says:
1t Is a scheme substantially for the
repeal of the Legislative union between
Great Britain and Ireland. The
representation of Ireland at Westmin-
ster must be retained. Withthi modifi-
cation the measure may pay New
castle.
The Journal declares the scheme
cumbersome and unremarkable and GER
tain to be rejected.
The Newcastle Chronicle says:
Though the measure may admit of
improvement in detail it is the beat
scheme ever presented in parliament.
The Edinburg Scotchman says:
The bill will not do as it stands. The
exclusion OF Irish members from West-
minister will be fatal. Gladstone has
approached the subject with a heroic
| spirit but his desire to be generous
to Ireland carried him too far.
He was asked to give home rule and
proposed to give repeal. 1t is safe to
say that the country will not sanction
the scheme.
The Edinburg Daily Review is disap-
pointed at the exclusion of Irish mem
oers from the imperial parliament.
TITO EIsdinourg Scottish commends tbs
scheme and pleads for Scotch home

various daily papers were got out in all
the principal towns as rapidly as the
news could be obtained from London
and printed and sales are every where
reported as enormous.
Such liberal papars as the Aberdeen
Free Press, Glasgow Herald, Belfast
Wing and London Daily Standard all
oppose the bill.
The Leeds Mercury says it is in

The Dublin Freemssons Journal ap.

The Dublin Irish Times and Dublin
Express both disapprove of it.
In Cork there is much excitement
over Gladstons's proposals, but the gen
eral opinion of the people is favorable
to them.
This afternoons London Globe pro-
nounces the bill a thinly yelled project
for total separation aud says the measure
is already doomed to failure.
The Pail Mall Gazette deyotes its
