Mr Morley's Tribute to Gladstone.

Ms John Morley on October 23 unveiled ftt Manchester, a bronze statue of Mr Gladstone, the cost of which was def fayed from »legacy lefts by the late Mr William Roberts. Tha statue is In Albert Square, Immecf lately 1b front of the Town Hall, and Is the work of Slgnor Raggi. After per forating.the unveiling ceremony, Mr Morley and tha civic authorities adjourned to.thsTowpHa'll, where the right) hon. aeatleinan delivered an eloquent addreas. He said n'ewould not apeak ia the language, temper, or the spirit of » political party, as ho wished to enjoy some hing of the peace and eqaity of history. He did not claim for Mr tiladstone an immaculate position, but to attempt now to detract from Mr Gladstone's greatness would bo a tint upon thalr country men. Mr Glad stone waa one of the men who riae in tho ■ world—a rare ela6S of man, sometimes a great ruler, sometimes a revolutionary poeb» ■ometlmes a mighty ohtsrchman, Sometimes a heiroio soldier—who swaep Ilka somu now planet Into tha skies, and tofitMteand absorb the Mention of their me. When he died tho world lost its jnbblest citizen. Neyor in our whole Farllamtatary history had there ever been »& orfttor who exhibited the same high : leveliol: supreme oratorical excellence in SO many ways ; and he was a gieat orator because he was always engaged on com© practical work, some great piece of per- Hoaslon, or some greab act, and because he was a moat prodigioua and Indefatigable worker. He did not take the House of Commons languidly. He regarded the honour aud the power of the House of Commons aa one of the great bulwarks of •English liberty and good Government in England. He honoured the Bouse cf Commons, and he taught the Hoase of Commons to honour itself. He may have had'aa excess of qualifying propositions, . bat whit pawed for sophistry, and sub tletljr wai in truth a scruple of conscience. Mr Morley paeied In review Mr Gladstone's iervise to trade and commerce and his frith Itgiilabion. He misread the olv 1 war ia America* bat he made noble reparation in the Geneva and the Alabama arbitration. Ie wm a gross misconception to pappose that Mr Gladstone was weak or ndifferent to the great interests of his country. His method of dealing with the national finances was one of the mala of oar prosperity. Thef c had never beih such an example of mental develop manfe, and the most important chat act eris tic of that mental life was his breadth of feeling in tlo interests Of the masses. Bssides being a statesman, besides being a patriot, besides being a magnificent orttoz, besides being a scholar, he was a |r»at .moral; teacher. When he saw the nplions going on a wrong path, Mr Gladstone saw high In the heavens the fhsh of the uplifted sword and the gleam of th*arm of the avenping angel.

Decline of British Industry

TRADE UNIONISM BLAMED.

Dr William Jncke, in his presiden tial address to the West of Scotland Iron aod fcteel Institute in Glasgow, s*id the most serious straggle they Were engaged in at present was for the maintenance of our industrial and commercial position—he dared no longer say industrial supremacy. They bad only to take up the leading papers to see the decline of British trade and tho invasion by the foreign Competitors, We were told, indeed, that, owing to the advance that had been made by our competitors in every department of industry, from clothes pins to loccmitrvep, wo were losing in the rac6| while in nanny classes of inachiaery the monopoly had been en tirely taken by Amorics. Referring to pig-iron, he showed by statistics Great Britain's enormous decline. He knew very well th*t with our com paratively limited resoarcep, and with the number of our fopalation s it w«n not possible for us to advance in tin name-proportion as the .United States Bud Germany, and that these countries coald continue to develop thoir enorm ous virgin resources without; doing barm to British trade. But he would «ay tha.fr, so lo^e asonr rfsources were noi wed to their almost, go long r*s Hoy part- of oar machinery remained not producing everything it wag cup &bleof' ( co long R3 any of oar work men were unemployed, then to thut extent it least * c were fulling behind in the ,jr,»ee. He remembered thirty years ago when he was travelling on the Oontiiietit., he found every where that the bulk of machinery bore the name of British ooanur'fio^rprs. Now it wai entirely the reverse. Not <&nly on the Continent, but in oar own toQudrierj «*t home, machinery was of foreign .make. The cradle of the steam ship find Jooomotive, tha land that gavp Srfrth to. Watt and Stepbenson, no lß»ger -possegsed the most powerful locomotives. Continuing, he remarked *bafc bota few years ago Germany took allier shipbuilding matpria! from Great Britain, and especially from Scottaad, while now she was selling tbiooianda »nd thousands of tons to the We«| of England shipbuilders. We HO longer possessed the sopremacy of the sea. We had no longer the swiftest (hips. They bad beer, wrested from Wby ther thoughtfu', plodding, and thorough German, He knew that ch rp. bai'ders said that these swift vrssela did not pay, bat it had been the policy of Germany for the Jasfc thirty cr forty year* t© supports things whic > did not pay, and when they secured thn trade thsn they wooldtmke it pay. He did vot My these things in order to lead a peßsf&ißtica! choras, bob if thpee- things were tra>, ifth ac indications led us to believe that wowere falling: behind' in I 4he rice, then it was well that they shoojd aotli?e under any illusions, but inquire into tho caasos and try to su« ge»t f«taedi(?3. He did not think there was RrtJ? cause for despondercy. (Ap plaaßPi.) Somehow or other at tho critical moment one of the great repre*<>ntßtkes of industry who adorned the fiimamenfc of onr nation's h;etory had always arisen, and had impeded the coarse ofjhe bickwtrd current; He attributed the causes of r>ur decMna to trado^ aoionisra. Every manufacturer, he said, should be encouraged to produce •smacbas'he could, and to reverse entirely the principles of the past.

All Run Down No Appetite, Weak, Discouraged. Warm climates always debilitate the aervous system. The digestion is slow, and the liver becomes sluggish. Im purities in the blood accumulate, and ■ you go about downhearted and de- { pressed. All this may bo quickly ! changed with proper treatment. Sirs. C. Kennedy, of 26 Erskine St., North Melbourne, Victoria, sends us ' her photograph and this letter * •• I had lost my appetite, was very weak, and all ran down.
