chairman forthwith put the question on any motion amendment or proposal touching touch-ing t clause in the Grimes bill then under I discussion then on the clause itself and finally on each remaining clause He urged that tno step was foroed on the Government Govern-ment by the continued obstruction I was absolutely necessary for dignity and efficiency effi-ciency that tho attempt to prevent the progress pro-gress of business be defeated I is now the I fourth month of the session and practically nothing has been done llio whole course of legislation has been stopped The Government Gov-ernment desired that due consideration bo gived the rights of tho minority and that respect be shown for tho traditions liberty and freedom attached to the institutions of the country Derisive Parnellite laughter Bat it was undoubtedly the duty of the Government Gov-ernment in circumstances without parallel in the history of Parliament to call upon the House to take measures to prevent the minority from setting at defiance the con troling power of tho majority I is impossible impos-sible for tho Government representing the majority to yield to the obstructions of the minority The Government must bo diR placed by an adverse to and then it will i i P bound to appeal to tho country But while sustained by the majority of the House thoymust carry on the business of the country The debates over the

Gladstone said longer notice should have been given of this important motion The present state of the business and tho entire paralysis of Parliament caused intense dissatisfaction dis-satisfaction throughout the country but a portion had been brought about by the Government Gov-ernment themselves Hear Hear They had been pursuing the false and futile policy of coercion with the justification pleaded on a former ocoasion They disregarded all the usages and traditions of Parliament in the conduct of a measure whicn they had under the name of the Grimes bill introduced intro-duced Tho measure was directed against a combination apart from crime Hear Hear He would suggest to the Government Govern-ment that a rational mode to expedite the bill would be t make it temporary instead permanent and to strike out all tho provisions pro-visions touching the combination apart from crime assuring the Irish tenants the same protection in respect to their land strikes as a striker has in labor strikes Cheers and cries of no I the Government Govern-ment rejected that remedy and had no other to propose tho offensive character of the bill would be retained in full force He did bi not wish to create difficulty by offering opposition op-position which he know would be ineffectual He would therefore content himself with protesting against the course now proposed Parnell said he could not understand the fatuity of the Government rushing blindfold along the road which they had already seen would lead to tho greatest disorder in Ireland Ire-land The Government speakers harped on the theme of Destruction As a matter of fact tho Irish members had not lifted one voice against any measure except the Coercion bill which they were bound to resist re-sist to the utmost He concluded by moving an amendment that the House decline to sanction the resolution limiting the freedom minority of debate and assailing the rights of the Hnrconrt warned the Government that their proposal might be used by n future prpsal government as a precedent for carrying a Home Rue bill in a fortnight and that other measures might be forced through in the same way Goschen Chancellor of the Exchequer
