Extra Session of the Texas Legis- lature. BRAZILIAN RECIPROOITY. THE IRISH GOVERNMENT BILL, English Liberals Declare That It Was In- troduced to Be Abandoned. Loxpor, Feb. 19.—While the liberals pro- fess to believe that the Irish local govern- ment bill was introduced to be aban- @oned and others think it might pass ® second reading, but could never get through the committee, the Sandard declares Stoutly that the government will proceed with itand will have the support of the liberal ‘Unionints. There may be some differences to details, but the main features of the bill are Spproved by all unionists, 1@ Standard says: “The measure corre- exactly with the description we gave of in advance and carries out those conceptions ot poliey es have always found favor in the remarks that those who would tain have supported the bill found nothing to say in ite defense. The bill i # in no sense » fal: iment of the government's: groun pian of themeasure isgood, but the safeguarding Clauses are epen to more or less objection an one is provocative of positive ridicule. The fFovernment cannot! deny they havo fired Ireland, something. signally inferior to that to the rest of the king- better bill and dom. the desorves nothing they were wrong in introducing @annot escape the obvious dilemma in which they have placed themselves. It is now for the jovernment to consider whether or not it ie etter to drop than to try to amend the bill. The Dublin National Press says: ‘The bill is rly account of meaningless provi- sions. It is a Jnpancee toy—a ion of empty boxes within one another.” ¢ London Times declares Mr. Balfour has displayed a complete mastery of details of « Yery complicated and technical subject. The alequarde pro would probably never interfere with the free action of the cil, The trial clause reall: particularly new. ‘There is check in the Irish poor law. 4 rage into which the Gladstonians and the Irish mombers work themsolves is really amusing. We doubt whother thoy will be able to stir up the English and Scotch electors by relating the wrongs of judicially deposed county coun- ors. ‘The Irish Times (anionist) of Dublin says the bill appeals to the wisdom of the house of commons. It is, as it professes to be, 8 com- pletion of the local government principle av plicable to all parta of the kingdom. he Freeman's Journal (home rule) declares that the bill ia a legislative Joke; an appeal to the country on this legislative abortion would make Balfour and his colleagues the laughing stock of the count.y. The Trish Daily independent (Parnellite) saya that the Irish party was prepared to give bill hearty support had it proved satisfactory, bat the measure isa sham, fraud andan insult. ‘Not much was to be expected from a unionist ministry, but nothing so ridiculous as this bill was anticipated. ‘The Star (radical) says: “Some people are kicked out; others are laughed out. The latter is the fate of the Irish local government bill farce. Mr. Balfour nearly feil last night. He is out of touch with the unionists and is ridiculed by his opponents. He must beware.” The St. James Gazette (conservative) says that merous measure has been contemptuously jected by those who pretend to speak for a majority of the Irish people because it protects the liberty and property of the minority. Last nights proceedings in the house of commons demonstrate that Irish members do not desire county and baron- fal councils for legitimate purposes, but that hey intend the councils to be branches of the Riatlonal League and to use them mainly for purpose of continuing the agrarian con- spiracy. coun- gel should not practical conclusion, of the pledge given by prove only government, but the final touc! to the work already accomplished, namely a firm and solid road on which ireland will steadily advance to perfect equality with the rest of the united kingdom.” ——_—_ FELL IN CLEMENCEAU’S TRAP, Mow the French Ministerial Crisis Was Brought About and Its Effect. Panis, Feb. 19.—The ministerial crisis was sprang so suddenly and with so little cause upon the chamber yesterday that it has had little or no disturbing effect as yet upon the public.
