The announcement was reccived with cheers by the supporters of the government. Collins moved that legisjation for the benefit of agriculturists havé precedence over home ruie. "o o ¥ After several members; had spoken in be- half of Collins' amendment Mr. Gladstone complained of the unusual conduct of the op- position, which'liad dlready moved six votes of censure to the address.

No system for helping the agricultural classes, Mr. Gladstone said, would be effec uutil the compulsory purchase of land would be legal- ized. [Cheers]. The gavernment had no desire to shirk the question. On the con- trary, the government weleomed It, and be- lieved that the government proposals would be most likely to promote the interests of the agriculturists. Rt. Hon. Joseph Chamberlain said that he considered the parish councils plan absurd. They woula be unable to perform their expected functions for want of funds. Mr, Chamberlain reiterated the charge that the government was wriggling out of its prom- ises. The opposition would tell the agricul- turisis at the next election, which was probably near at hand, that the Liberals were unable, and possibly never would be able to remedy the grievance as long as they put great constitutional question before the in- terests of laborers. \dm-r.\-; or move MARSEILLES EPIDEMIC, rty-four Deaths from it Yesterday - Thought to Be Cholera, Panis, Feb.
