Mr. Balfours plan of making railways through

money Home Rule aimed at National regencra-
tion. and this implied the regeneration OF the
Industries and the industrial and commercial

II woud not discourage the rich people of England
from promoting industrial DEVELOPMENTS: but the

Briefly referring 10 the Parnell Commission
che sneaker said that he believed the Judges re-
port would not discredit the National movement
Mr. Parnell devoted the speech he made to
hight TO the Tenants League. He said thls wa:
by far the greatest and most powerful peaceaDl'
movement ever organized in Ireland or any othc
country Although Ireland was tranquil. she wa'
not appeased. She did not submit. On the con
trary the peoples dislike of the Government wa
fenfold more intense for the experiences o1 thre'
years of coercion. But the country. though IL ul'
not Weld. was tranquil because of the 1alth 1
had in the assurances of Mr.. Gladstone that
triumphant Liberal party would soon give IL IL
legitimate freedom. - =. .ia -
Mr. rarneil would not say that 1t would D
impossible 10 govern Ireland by mere coercion. hu
Raifour's mixture of coercion and constitutional
ism would never succeed. Mr.. Ralfour had mad
several mistakes; among these was that he ha'
neglected TO provide for arrears OF rent ana 10
the restitution of evicted tenants. This had le'
IN the formation of new agrarian movement
which would sweep Balfour and his props ava!
ss chaff is swept before the whirlwind.
II the Government had nothing TO be ashamet
of in its connection with The Times, douotles
10 ,rouid CRAFTY curiosity by making known Tho
truth about that matter. The country wanted
10 know how far the Government had gone IN
course so mean and thoroughly contrary 10 th'
English spirit as TO attack men from ambush, an'
by the use of such disreputablc Instruments lh'
speaker knew the letters were forgerles' o1I M
would rather have died than have accepted I'M
vindication the Government offered him. INT
Parnell Commission. instead of trying the per
sonal indictments. had tried the Irish Nation an'
the movements of the Irish party.
Upon the conclusion of his engagements a
Nottingham Mr.. Parnell will visit Mr. Glad
stone at Hawarden.
