London, August 25.—The debate on the address in reply to the queen’s speech was continued this evening. Sir Thomas Es- monde, home ruler, dwelt upon the hard ships of Irish farmers. Their produce, he said, was unsaleable, and it was therefore a cruel barbarity for the landlords to exact rents. Jit was a sound, economical doctrine that when profits from land diminished all concerned should bear the loss, not the farmer alone. William Redmond (nationalist) said it was useless to discuss the land settlement. The question was whether the landlords would be allowed to evict tenants for not g aying impossible rents? Whether the nglish would allow the Irish to be cast into the roadside during the coming win ter? If the result was bloodshed, misery and outrages, the responsibility would rest with the government, whose only panacea was the appointment of a royal commis sion. Balfour, secretary for Scotland, accused Parnell of trying to make government im possible bv promoting general Anti-nent strikes. The Parnellites, he said, did not wish a settlement between landlords and tenants, but wished to keep open the agrarian sore. Mr. Stewart, on behalf of the democrats of England, demanded the eviction, and said that the democracy would not tole rate coercion. Ireland must be autonom ous. Major Saunderson, conservative, said he would speak as a landlord to refute the Parnellite charge that Irish landlords, or bloodsuckers, as they were pleased to call the landlords [cheers], were afraid to make their voices heard in the house of commons. He (Saunderson; accepted the challenge. [Conseevative cheers.] Irish landlords, he said, were not afraid to ac cept the Parnellite challenge on this or any other point. (Conservative cheers and Parnellite laughter.] Major Saunderson quoted an extract from a speech made in October. 1880, by Matthew Harris, member for Bust Gaitvay, in which the latter said that If the farmers shot landlords like partridges he would not blame them. At tills point Harris rose in the house in obedience to a summon, and immediately asked Saunderson to repeat the quotation. Saunderson replied, ‘With the greatest pleasure,” and again read the extract from Harris’ speech. Harris —“Will Major Saunderson rend what I said leading up to the extract?” Sanderson—This is the only portion of the speech worth reporting. [Conserva tive laughter and loud Paruell cries of or der.] After an excited discussion the speaker allowed Harris to make an explanation. Harris commenced a discussive statement to the effect that in 1844 lie went into riband lodges in Westmeath and elsewhere in an endeavor to put down agrarian crime. The speaker interposed, saying thut Harris, by the indulgence of the house, was allowed to make a personal explana tion, bnt not to make an argumentive speech. [Cheers.] Saunderson, resuming, said Harris does not deny the accuracy of the extract. Harris, excitedly—“I do. Read the con text.” Saunderson—“Harris has informed the house of an interesting fact that I was un aware of before—namely : That he be longs to the ribbon order.” [Conservative laughter and Parnellite sneers.] Harris excitedly arose and made a re mark that was inaudible, owing to the cries of the Parnellites. Dillon rose to a point of order. He asked whether one member was entitled to ac cuse another of belonging to the ribbon order? [Parnellite cheers.] Speaker—It is a statement, the truth of which Harris lias admitted. The house must judge. Dillon denied that Harris had admitted anything of the kind. [Shouts ol order and Parnellite cheers.] Speaker—The honorable members have heard the statement. Doubtless, Major Saunderson will accept a denial. Harris—I repudiate it as an infnmious falsehood. [Cries of order. ] Speaker—Harris will withdraw that ex pression unreservedly. Harris obeyed, but further bickering en sued. The speaker, rebiiking disorderly members, said lie hoped personal allusions would cease. [Cheers.] * Saunderson, resuming* his speech, said that Parnell lias formulated a new canon— “Thou shall ask no rent.’’ All classes and trades in Ireland were in a more or less depressed condition except the professional Irish politician. [Laughter. That occupa tion was never in a more nourishing condition. The Parnellites were trying to exterminate landlords by terrorism. He instanced cases at Gweedore where tenants paid each other as much as one hundred men, aud among all that number, in all these years, I chiulenge Powderly to find a man who can truthfully say that I, as a socialist or anarchist, have advocated or countenanced ‘the destruction of life and property.’ Who ever says so lies. * * * * * * We have declared that the existing social order is founded on force and maintained by force, aud we have and do still predict a social revolt of the working people against this force system, that wage work ers will be driven unconsciously into open rebellion against class rule and class domination. The result will flow f.om cause to effect, and not from anything that Powderly, myself or anyone else may say or do. The more general and intelligent diffusion of this truth, the less violent and destructive will be the period of transition. This is anarchy. Its teachings which mean an end forever to brute force. The reign of eternal peace prosperity. For snying these things, my self and comrades now are in prison awaiting the pleasure of our executioners. I think it befits Powderly, in the name of labor, to join in the cry for our blood,and whether we live or whether we die, social revolution is Inevitable. “The speech of James G. Blaine at Lebago, Maine, yesterday is the real open ing of the national presidential campaign in 1888. He rends the signs of the times and foretells the coming question, 'the labor problem,’ but I opine that he reckons without his host when he endeavors to outline the protective tariff question as the coming issue. That racket won’t work any longer. It is played out. The liberty of labor is a worthiess thing when it consists of a more choice between being fleeced by a prefect ionist or free trade exploiters. Our present statesmen will have to try again or else other issues and other men will lend the labor hosts in 18S8 ‘” < THE TEXAS STORM. riu* People of Ylotorln Issue mi Appou! for Aid. Victoria, Texas, August 25.—The citi zens of this place held a meeting last evening in the court house for the purpose of devising measures for the relief of the sufferers by the recent storm, the'devas- tation being so widespread that impend ing suffering is beyond local aid. A relief committee was appointed which issued the following • address, requesting that it be sent out for publication in the news papers of t he union: “To the Charitably InclinedJPeople of America: Last Friday this section was devastated by the heaviest wind storm ever known on this coast, and many of our citizens are without food and shelter. Not alone were the accumulations of years in many instances swept out. of ex istence by the fierce hurricane, but g rowing crops were destroyed in the elds. But few of our citizens escaped the general calamity and many are irre trievably ruined; but we are threatened bv more danger—gaunt famine follows close upon the whirlwind’s track. Men and women, and innocent children, suffer for food and clothing. The poople of Victoria county, themselves heavy suffer ers, are doing all and will continue to do everything m their power to relieve the distressed and give them temporary assist ance until they can arrange fora new start in life. But the fast multiplying demands of their destitution are exhausting our re sources. Unless help can be obtained from the charitably-inclined throughout the United States our best efforts must fall largely short of the existing necessity. We, therefore, with all confidence in the just ness of our undertaking, feeling sure that the great heart of the American people throbs in sympathy with the distressed of every nation and every color, issue this, our appeal for help. “Food and clothing are imperatively needed. Without them the growing pangs of hunger will he succeeded by sickness and death. Out of your plenty, unswept by storm, and secure from the gulf’s mad waves, send us a moiety, he it ever so little. If is only for those who are helpless and in cruel want, both white and black, that we appeal—not to replace what has been lost, but to reduce human suffering and check, as we may be able, the torrent of human woe now surrounding so many of our un happy homes. “Contributions may he forwarded through A.
