man would greatly miss the sublime and pa
E hon.-. hi tic figure which enriched and en-
ne, v.obled. not merely the treasury bunch,
smith ,ut the house itself. 1t was thought
i Sion nat in the high office to which | have
ity 'een called there should be Il declaration

= stand where we did. (Cheers) There
v., will be no change of measures, and al
'ua@hough there has been disastrous
y acpGs.h pge of men they ar, all pledged to the
vatio, same policy. (Cheers) The same meas
or,, ures remain as they are, the programme
F4of the Liberal party, and it is not in
ltEatended to recede from any oft hem
nmuty In regard to the Irish question we
drv are bound to it by ties of honor and af-
@fection. My speech in the house of
ehd lords in 1893 seems to have raised some
The doubt as to my own position in regard to
bone rule. Those who have these doubts
-: can only nave rcac the speech in Il cur
s sorry manner. The policy of home rule
""s 4 will not be less definitely pursued If
anl there Is any doubt on the subject, on..
" Hrlcdge which the govern E.ent his given
! al IN this connection is the continuance in
',lF his present office of the Rt. Hon John
tea u Morley, chief secretary for Ireland
ans (Cheers). Mr.. Morley has been offered
'ry df higher Office, but he thought It his duty
'e ON lot to sever his career from the cause
- of Ireland. (Chccrs).
"Our late lllustrious leader, in his last
speech delivered in the house of com
lions, made declaration with which the
present gov.I nment have entirely ilenti-
fled themselves (Cheers). The conclusion
has long been forcing itself upon me
that, with the democratic suffrage which
we now enjoy, IA second chamber CON
stituted like the house of lords, is an
anomaly This conviction has been
strengthened b. the unhappy chapter of
R>Es accidents which has turned the house of
fNS lords from body of hereditary law
~ g1vers, more or les, equally divided, into
"a one great Tory organization entirely at
%& the beck and call Of a single party leader
lg@ Cheers.
zsa "When the TcriAs were in office the
tS3 power of veto was not exercised but
IE nhen the Liberals r. in power the veto
eNS u exercised at tie dictates of the Tory
48 leader. That is danger to the constr
&H tuition to which the Liberal government
sM sis not blind, and they will not lose sight
sM ct my measure which is consttntionally
10 presented to tn country to abolish this
g1eat anomaly. (Ch. ers)
sl Il will not go far as some Of my
friends l do not think that the peers
should be treated pariahs. | do not

bar him from the higher opportunities of
1erving the state, and do not sympa-
