IRELAND AND FAIR TRADE.
STILL A FGEE-TRADER IN PRINCIPLE-TBE UNION
SHALL BE UPHELD.


SHALL BE UPHELD.
LONDON Jan. 1l.-Lord Salisbury, speaking at
Liverpool today said that the Gladstonians had
relied upon the conviction that Ireland was un-
govenable and had directed their policy toward
securing the fufillment Of that imagination. Mr.
Gladstone had said that new crimes had been
added to the statute book The highest legal
authorities had assured him Salisbury, that in
their opinion the Crimes Act was definite appli-
cation of the law common to England and to all
countries where law prevailed.
Mr.. Gladstone had proplIesicd that the Con-
scryatives would eventually give Home Rule
to Ireland, their defence of the Union being in
sincere. Let the Giaostonians consider the spirit
of the Unionists, many of whom had sundered
every party and personal consideration TO preserve
the country against GladstOnism Never was the
principle of National Union more sincerely held.
The UniOnists were convinced that Ireland would
sooner or later become thoroughly consolidated
with Great Britain and peacefully and prosper
ously exist under the same legislature and the
same laws, paying the same respect 10 the law
and enjoying equal liberty, VaclllatIon had been T
the great crime of England against Ireland NO
Government could be of any avail unless II
showed that it could govern rcsolutely.
Referring to the fair trade movement, he de-
clarcd himself free-trader still on principle but
said there were many things existing III the fiscal
system which were contrary to free trade. En-
perence tended to show that the free trade theory
had been carried too far or mlsappled. There
was the sugar bounties question as an instance
of the hurtful operation of indiscriminate free
trade. The agricultural question was a more dli-
cult subject but it must be admitted thattbe
interests of the producer and the consumer in
productions of English soil were bound by one
common interest and must stand or fall together
Tn concluding he returned to the Irish question,
and appealed to England TO maintain the union
He was convinced that those who thought that
the next general election would upset mon .i
ism had utterly misread the sentiments af the
English Democracy.
Lord Salisbury spoke in the Circus, which was
crowded by an audience of about 5000 persons.
Many thousands were unable to gain adnitfance.
They waited for the appearance Of Lord Salisbury
and sang patriotic songs. cheering the Union1st
leaders and hoOting the Gladstonians promi-
net feature of the speech was the dubious utter
ancc in regard to free trade, due to the fact that
Liverpool is the strongest centre OF the frcetrade
movement
