He rcfplldiated the suggestion that there was any trickery or deceit on the part .oi the government and left no doubt oi his intention to abide by his pledge to introduce some sort of a home rule bill. Eventually Mr. Pirie withdrew his amendment and Mr. Lonsdalc's amendment was defeated, 284 to 100. John George Butcher, unionlst member for York city, moved all amendment exempting from the ourr-_ ation of clause two any bill ciiwctiiic. the continued existcncc of thc crown'.s prerogatives. In opposing this amendment, Sir Robert ii. Finlay, the attorney gcn- eral, said the security of thc crown rested on thc loyalty of the people. and it would bc an evil day for the crown when it depended for existence upon the lords veto. The Butcher. amendment was then defeated 273 to 169. A. J. Balfour, leader of the opposi- tion, spoke in favor of the amend- ment, his remarks being 9, repetition of his oft-told argument. The gov- ernment, he said, had hidden home rule in the background during the elections and now having surreptiti- ously attained power, they were go- ing to force homc rule down the throats of the people who he believ- ,cd. if the issue were placed directly before them, would reject it. as they did in 1885 and 1893. \\`\$I\ \\ \\ s§\\u,. /-rJ>'_` _ _ _ .,“.""" /' lr cgi/f'/' - _ 1 ` _ ginlf' M _C'CJ' __ 3% _ Ulm .¥ K|.nfN Evgiél »’~ \ l.\\\‘\_\\-\-`l,'s0»f-~; L ` /,..
