This amendment is the one that A, J. Balfour futended to introduce last Monday when the homo rula bill came up on tho ra- port stage, but which his absence from the house at the time prevented him from doing. During the debate on the motion of Jo- soph Chamberlain he denounced the strat- ogy of the government, by moans of which n scheme was imposed ‘on the House giving the Irish mombers who should be retained the right to vote on all questions. The best and only arrangement wonld bo the total ex- clusion “of the Irish members from West- minster, Mr. Henry Labouchere (radical) said that if the Irish members sat in Westminster for parliamentary purposes there would be two majorities in the house, which would destroy the foundation of par nmentary gov- ernment. The house had cither to accept full retention, or full exclusion. If the bill were a complete measurs of home rule, he would vote for full exclusion. It was not a complete measure, and the Houso must therefore await the end of the probationary period, when full home rule would be given for sctiling the ultimato status of the Irish in the Imperial Parliament. Mr. Labouchere's remarks were (greoted with cheors. The division was then taken up, and Mr. McCartney's motion was de- feated by a vote of 221 to 181 News from Honolutu.
