A PARNELLITE MANIFESTO.

The Other Factions of the Irish Par
hamentary Party Bit erly Attacked
Dublin Sept. 29-The Independent, or
Parnellite, party has issued manifesto,
in view of the anniversary Of the death of
Charles Stewart Parnell, who died on
Oct 6, 1891, bitterly attacking the other
factions of the Irish parliamentary party,
saying: The mass of the people
who went wrong last election have
been dlslllusionlzed. They are not likely
to remain long in the service of a govern
ment that coufesses its inability to do
anything for ireland, nor remain attached
TO parliamentary party conspicuous in
having failed in the first essentials of
unity, discipline and independence, and
which has succeeded only in hiring TO
strangers those services which were
solemnly pledged to Ireland.
"A general election is a certainty in the
near future, and even were it the avowed
policy of the Irish allies of the govern
ment to continue the present moribund
ministry in ottice, they are too demoraized
and divided by deadly internal strife to
be useful to even their British paymas-
ter. We may expect, therefore, before
the date Of dissolution, individual appeals
to the constituencies from out of the
ranks of the Irish allies themselves"
