BRIGHT TO THE
John Bright, writing on "Gladstonian
craftsmanship in Municipal Elections
says: ''The followers OF Gladstone have
adopted a policy opposed to genuine Lib
eral principles. They have swallowed a
dose, which up to two years ago they con-
dtmned and abhorred. At the invitation
Of the eminent statesman they tried to
break up Parliament, but only succeeded in
breaking up their own party. Liberals
must bear evils thus thrust upon them.
What is good in the country will survive
the present troubles
A BIN OFFICER SPEAKS.
LONDON, January 24.-The Right Hon.
Henry Matthews, Home Secretary, ad-
dressing the electors of Birmingham to-
night said there had never been a more
united Cabinet than the present one. The
stories OF discussion were false. Next ses-
sion will be devoted to business and the
Irish question would take a second place.
Mr.. Corning's local Government bill would
be broad and liberal.
billions ONLY FEAR.
John Dillon, in a speech at Cambridge
to-day, declared that notwithstanding the
subserviency OF the local magistracy to
the tyranny OF the castle authority, the
Governments policy in Ireland was an alb
lect failure. Wherever the League had
been proclaimed, said Dillon, its strength
had trehled. Some of Leagues greatest
("pla OF campaign') victories had bee n
gained in the past fortnight. Dillon's only
fear is not that the spirit OF Irish nation
atty will be quenched by coercion, but
that the last chance OF knitting the hea rts
OF Englishmen and 1rishmen in the bonds
Il love and sympathy would pass by I'M
seized.
