Another Irish Campaign in Course of

dered to Duty i'm Macedonia.

LONDON, Sept. 29.-Sir Michael Hicks
Beach. the former chancellor of the ex-
chequer, delivered a speech at Bristol to-
night in which he outlined the attitude of
the government with respect to the oppo-
nents of the education bill who had de-
clared their refusal to carry out the provi-
the rates required.
Sir Michael said the strongest Noncon-
formists could not believe that Parliament
would abolish UNCONVENTIONAL schools. That
being so, the bill provided the only way of
meeting the difficulty, namely-the extern
sion of elementary education. The former
chancellor of the exchequer said the bill
might need some alteration, but If the mat
ter was to be settled peaceably there must
be no more threats of resistance to the will
of Parliament by local authorities or by
rate payers to the payment of rates. If the
local authorities failed in their duty, said
Sir Michael, Parliament would intrust their
work to others, land the courts know how
to deal with those who, by refusing to pay
the rates, range themselves on the side of
anarchy"
Sir Michael criticised the War Office as
chiefly responsible for the increase in ma
uonal expenditures. He said the South Az
rican war did not compare to the war in
the Sudan in economy and efficiency, and
that there was necessity for drastic re-
forms in the War Office, on the military
however, rather than on the civil side. He
declared he had told his colleagues as
much and that ne intended to continue his
warnings. They would never reform the
War ONCE until they made the great mass
of military officers pay some attention to
the duties of their profession, as naval
officers did, and until they removed all out
side influence now interfering with the
management of the army, as well as selec-
tions, appointments and promotions, which
never would be tolerated in the civil serv-
ice.
Sir Michael said he thought he could
honorably relinquish his former Office, now
that the finances of the country were in a
more flourishing condition and that there
was a prospect of reduction in taxation. He
said, however, that he intended to continue
a while as member of Parliament for West
Bristol.
