ENGLISH LIBERALS.
MIR. GLADSTONE OUTLINES
 THEIR PLATFORM.
The Grand old Man Receives nm Enthu- siastic Ovation From the Delegates
 to the Liberal Conference.

LONDON, Dee. IA The committee of the National iberal Federation this moi ning gave banquet to the dele gate. from the rural constituencies who attended yesterdays Liberal con- ference. The banquet was largely at- sended, many of the most prominent Liberal members being present. Mir. Gladstone, who was passing through London en route to the continent, was present and received an ova- tion such as no other living Englishman could receive. During the course of the banquet Mir. Gladstone made a most important address upon the subject of rural reform. in which he practically pledged the liberal party to advocate and earnestly push for ward all the reform measures forming the platform of the rural voters. or, in other words. the reforms they demand in exchange for their support at the coming general election. The labor question has now assumed. said Mir. Gladstone, about the same proportions and aspects as the home rule question; because, he explained, the Irish farmer was really struggling with the agricul- tural laborer. The project of crganiz- ing rural labor was the foremost ques- ton now before the British public, as the constant and damaging emigration of rural laborers to the towns proved most conclusively.
 Mir Gladstone admitted that the gov ernment deserved credit for taking slight step in this direction by passing a county councils bill, but he said that this measure does not by any means satisfy the liberal party except in the fact that it embraces the right princi pie.
 After some criticism of the govern ment claim to have well administered the affairs of Ireland. a claim which Mir. Gladstone disputed, he said that the government should not be ham pered in its efforts to provide even the smallest and most meager form of local and self-government for Ireland, as whatever form cf loeal government they establish they must assist the Irish people in their just demand for their rights to nationality and freedom. [Ap plause.l A free education alsoreceived attention from Mir. Gladstone, who earnestly advocated such measure in connection with all schools depending upon popular support.
 If the rural reforms advocated were carried out, the speaker said, he saw the waytcle arly to a better condition ofothe rural population. Society had not perfored it's duty when it sent 'the aged and blameless lahorer to the work house. The laborer had right to be placed in the position of being able to put a spade into his own land, and the parish councils he had already referred to were the only means of securing him this right, and of securing an adequate working of the small allotment plan of relief for the rural communities.
