Show Hostility to Gladstone. London, February 8. Mr. Redmond, Nationalist Na-tionalist member of Parliament, in a speech at Monaghan to-day, urged the Irishmen to restrain their violent feelings, and not to hamper the new government, which, he said, would take immediate steps to stop evic- tions. - . - The appointment of Mr. Broadhurst as Under Home Secretary has caused a sensation sensa-tion in political ciroles, that gentleman being be-ing the first workingman that has ever risen to the Ministry. The appointment is taken as an indication that it is Mr. Gladstone's intention to rely upon the masses against the influence of the aristocracy. The Liberal Lib-eral clubs are divided in opinion on the subjeot, the Reform and Devonshire disapproving disap-proving of the appointment, and the National Na-tional Liberal enthusiastically approving it. The hostility of the Whigs to Mr, Gladstone Glad-stone is intended, This is shown in the difficulty dif-ficulty experienced by the Premier in filling the peeresses' posts in the Queen's household. The Duchesses of Bedford and Westminster have refused appointments, and others will follow their example. |
