GRANTED,

| Well, the discontent will increase. Home ‘Rele or Local Government—take either | word you like—will grow up everywhere. I ‘tell you, as svre as I am standing here, Local Government or Home Rule will come in a very wide form either in this way or in that way; in any case it is inevitable. But look at another force which is working in the same direction. There is this immediate obvious prospect before as. There are 80 members coming to Parliament—80 mem- bers at the very least—under a resolute leader, determined, if you do not concede what you are saying you will not concede, to bring your Parliamentary system into con- tempt. They will meet you at every turn. You say, ‘Oh, bat we will amend our Parliamentary procedure.’ You will find that an uncommonly tough obstacle in the way of the amendment of your Par- liamentary procedure. I venture to say that they will thwart you—thwart every intention you have—they will resist your every wish. They reckon on your im- pstience, they calculate on your lassitude, they are confident of your determination to be rid of them as soon as possible; and: to get rid of ali obstruction of business. (Cheers.) I believe, then,that the tendency of the age is towards Local [Government. I believe that the forces of the age are

WORKING TOWARDS LOCAL GOVERNMENT,

ana I believe it to be on the whole a wholesome terdency—(Uheers. )—and it is a wholesome tendency if only for this reason, that 14 opens the door for the colonies. If there be disloyalty at home,they if they comeinto closer relations with ua, will produce the counterpoise. If Ireland is to be our open enemy and remain an open encmy at our doors, let us call to mind the sublime expression of Mr. Can- ning, and ‘callin the new world to redress the balatiee of the o14.’ (Cheers.) Bat I can understand you saying—‘Suppose they do not wish to come closer to us?’ Well, in that case they will remain as they are, and no harm will be done. They have al- most all they wont—that I fully and freely acknowledge—but i do think that it may well be in the stress of the eondiiions which are now beseiging the world, in the stress and trial of the floating ambiticns of nations, that they may wish to stand a little closer to their kinfolk at home, that they may may wish to stand shoulder to shoulder with us and meet the world to- gether in A NEWER BOND OF PEACE

and of unity, (Cheere.) In no way should we interfere with their political or their financial or their fiscal conditions. We should only add strength to their strength, and completeness, as it seems to me, to their best aspirations, Now, I admit that tuese cousiderations are not convincing. I admit that there is a great deal, as in all questions, to be said on both sides. I am only asking you notto shut your eyes, as seems to be the fashion in some parta of the country and among some speakers, to the inevitable condilion under which we have to face this Irish problem. I want you further to recollect, in connection with the problem, that I have ofered you some possible comfort in the future, in the fact that if we have io face federal relations with Ireland—I have shown you what forces are tending in that direction—if we have to face federal relations with Ireland, there isa voester federation which is still open to us from which we may derive some comfort for the future.”

Mauritius

An important change has been made in the constitution of the Island of Mauritius, This colony, which has an interest for us | from the resemblance in iis circumstances and population to our own, it having been | originally a French colony, being known lfor a leng time as Isle de Frarce, has | beea agitating for seme time for jautonomy in the form of an inde- ipendent legislature. Lass spring the | late Imperi«.] Cabinet granted its imhabit- jants the right of electing six members to ithe Legislative council. But this conces- altogether satisfactory and an lappeal was made for an extension of the iprivilege. Some time ago the present col- |onial minister acceded to the request of the |\Mauritians, end they have now, it is said, jeuch elective powers as give the people practical control, though the boon lof full responsible government is ‘not yet in their hande. Until re- cently Maurititus was simply a Crown colony, being administered by a goveror, assisted by an executive councii of seven. |The Legislative Council includes the latter, jand eight landed proprietors nominaied by ithe Crown and three popular represente- tives. The inhabitehts uow elect ten of ithe members of that body. The agitation will probably continue, as it did in Canada, ‘till responsible Government in the fall sense has been secured,
