London, April 20.—Lord Salisbury, io
an address delivered last eight before the
Primrose League at the Albert Palace, the
occasion being the sixth anniversary of tho
death of the Earl of Beaconsfield, said tbo
agitation oarried on daring the Easter holi
days by the opposition bad failed, and that
the government's cams was the country's.
The government in Ireland was facing a
vast machine, producing terrorism and
crime, agalnit whioh the government in
tended to struggle with all the powers Par
liament wonld grant. Mr. Gladstone’s im
agination deceived him when be at
tempted to provo that his party’s
irospects were very bright. The present
rish crime bill wonld not compare in
stringenoy with Mr. Gladstone’s till of
1881. Under the latter measure people
were Imprisoned without trial. This coaid

suppression of crime in Ireland did not
mean the suppression of liberty. The
jolicemsn in arresting Bill Sykes did not
nterfere with libe-ty. The danger of the
present day lay in catch words. Mr. Glad
stone, who had spent his life in changing
his opinions, mentioned those who separ-
ated from him in thejtone of a father lector-
teg hia children. He preached Rt »nd
almost prayed for them. Bat It neter oc
curred to Mr. Gladstone that perhaps they
bad something to oompiain of. They were
nnable to change their opinions in a night
like ha oould. Lord Sslisbnry prr phesied
that Mr. Gladstone wonld find it difficult to
gather around him any new recruits. His
present adherents had gone too far to re
cede. Wbst bad Mr. Gladstone gained?
asked the Premier. He had gained eighty-
six very devoted followers of Parnell, who
bad been oharged 'with having approved
mnrder, and who bad refuted, or whose
frienda had refused for him, to enter the
witness box and deny the oharge, and this
conrso Mr. Gladstone approved. Mr. Par

open to him to set the aoensstion
aaide with the copious nse of tbo elegant
vooabnlary his friends had introduced into
the Honse of Commons. Ho was bound to
enter the witness box and deny the eharges
sgsinst him most solemnly. IIo# coaid
Mr. Gladstone go betore tho country asso
ciated with men who refnsed to submit
such a question to the judgment of an Eng
lish jury. The speaker did not bolio vein
Mr. Gladstone's horoscope. The victory
Mr. Gladstone obtained in 1880 was won by
a flood of misrepresentation that could not
be repoated. The Conservatives were now
sn organized party, powerful to refute
falsehood and to disseminate truth. This
condition of the party waa largely dne to
the work ot the Primrose Lesgne. The
present government would, when it left
effloe, baud down unimpaired to the rsuo-
cessors the great trastof the empire.
Several Gladatonian Liberals desire to
here Parliament issno a summons
the editor of the Times calling him
before the bar of the Honse of
Commons to answer for breach of privilege
in accusing Mr. Parnell and other members
of the Honse of complicity in crime, or that
Mr. Gladstone propose the appointment of
a committee tn examine into the Times'
charges. Tbo Psruel Lee have been con
sulted and their leaders oppose both propo
sitions. If neittur the Pxruellitee nor
Cladstonians take the intitule in moving

surely and fatally the happineu anu free

that the otimes bill gives to the government

power ia conferred by the Honse of

can allow snch machinery to be set ia mo

bill the feeling which baa always existed
against political repression. [Hear, hear ]
But the repressors of erime do not attack
the liberty of tho people Oa the contrary
they are its greatest defenders. Mr. Glad
stone's idea when on a fine morning in
1885 be, who had been all his life a vigorous
opponent of home rale, awoke to advocate
home rale, woe that it was hit followers'
duty to awoke home rulers,too. [Cheers

Gladstone's belief in obicqiaak obedience

A Speech by John Morley.
London, April 20.—John Morley ad
dressed an audicnco of 4,000 people at
Wolverhampton this evening. Referring
to Mr. Gladatone, he said that no other
great leader bad ever launched a great i sue
or fought for a great cause with a spirit so
entirely forgetful of his own personality
and so entirely sbntt ng ont the mean and
ignoble consideration which aeemed to af
fect ignoble minds. The crimes
bill, continued the speaker, awak
ened the sense of thousands of Liberals of
what they did when they rejected Mr. Glad
stone’s policy. He repudiated the accusa
tion that the liberals countenanced violence
and obstruction in Parliament, and that
they allied themselves with men whose
hands were stained with outrage. He re
minded Mr. Chamberlain that he, in the
Fortnightly Review for February, 1886,
advised that the Parnellitea leaders be taken
into the councils of the Queen. The round
table conference bad been suspended
because Mr. Chamberlain, though concilia
tory in eonclave, continued in speeches and
letters publicly to revive old bitterness.
The Unionists proposed to settle
the question by ignoring five-six bs of the
Irish people and dabbing their trusted rep-
resentattves ruffians. On the geueiol
oharge of complicity in crime brought
against the Parnellites, he bad to say that

A Michigan Legislator Gives a List of Ills
Colleagues who Could he nought.
Lansing, April 20.—A sensational brib
ery case has oome up in the House of Rep
resentatives. F. L. Eaton, of Saginaw City,
interested in the revision of the charter of
that plaoe, charged that Representative H.
M. Dakin (Democrat) had given him a list
of the members of the Legislature with
the price for which each wonld
vote in favor of Eaton’s measure.
After debate, a committee of investigation
was appointed. Eaton's statement bad
been sworn to, and it gave the names of all
persons mentioned by Dakin. The speaker
summoned all of them before him. Dakin
acknowledged the schednle of fifteen
members, with the estimated bribe*
attached as hia own work, and signed a
statement to that effect. He farther stated
that he had never approached any of tho
members on the (abject of the charter. Af
ter the charges were made in the Honse, an
opportunity was given for denial. The clerk
resd a note signed by Dakin, denying
the charges in toto. He refused to allow
bis first statement to he made pnbltc, and
will not talk on the subject. Members are
highly indignant and Dakin will probably
be expelled from his seat in the Legislature.
the oharge waa fully stated before Parlia
ment in 1883, when the lush government,
alter fullest inquiries, found that the accu
sation could not be substantiated. With
regard to the latest charge mode by the
Times, nntil that paper explained how it
obtained the letter and ils grounds for be
lieving it to be authentic, be should content
himself with Parnell's denial. On
the fringe of every popular
movement were some bad men,
bnt it was a mistake to call the Irish-Ameri-
can home rulers the scorn of she earth.

the defeat of tho party of violence. The

Chamberlalu Explains.
London, April 20.—With reference to
Mr. Gladstone's sp tch at the dinner of the
Eighty Club last night, Mr. Chamberlain
says Mr. Gladstone bos been inaccurately
informed. He says be woe unable to ob
tain from Mr. ^Gladetone a promise .that
he wonld make any important modification
In hie Irish bill, but he never advanced that
as the reason of the failure of the round
table oonferenee. He ia not aware that
any attempt was made by Ur. Gladstone
tn seenre the co-operation 'of the Liberal
Unionists on anjr Liberal qneithn outside
of the Irish problem. Ils save it is ab
surd to eappoee that wbils Mr. Gladstone
refrains from lndies lng what modificatlone
he ie willing to make in his bill, Liberal-
Unionists will assist in imtoiing him to

Prohibition in Iowa.
Chicago, April 21.—A News special from
Desmoines, laws, says: Governor Larrabee
baa written a letter in reply to an inquiry
from the secretary of the central commit
tee of the prohibitory campaign of Texas in
regard to the workiogxof prohibition in
Iowa. Tho Governor says that in eighty
ont of ninety-nine connties of the State
prohibition is enforced and in the remain
ing nineteen connties it is partly enforced.
That no property has been depreciated by
its enforcement, ss saloons make room for
better and more legitimate business; that
the enforcement of the law has bad no no
ticeable effect upon population, beyond
causing the removal from tho State of some
incurable dispeasets and perhaps incurable
consumers. The effeots of prohibition on
the general welfare and habits of the peo
ple, he says, arc decidedly wholesome.
The prohibition sentiment is on tho in
crease, and there is no doubt that prohibi
tion is an established power in Iowa.
