Speech by Mr Morley.

Mr John Morley, M.P, addressed a meeting in the Free Trade Hall, Man chester, on March 1 .th, in connection with the mnml Council meeting of tbe National Reform Union. The right lion gentleman in the course of his ■peeoh said f— ! I am afraid yo_ will be disappointed, 1 have oomi here not to found a new fagae—(laughter and cheers)—not to bring oat new (Hear, bear) Gentlemen, I stand under the Old flag. (Hear, hear) And though 1 see that in some quarters those who think m Ido are ; described as men of the pant—w© shall see. (Loud laughter And oheers) I ©aanot forget, of coarse, the last time thft. I was present at a pojitleal meeting—a pol'twa. meeting In Manchester. (Laoghter) Tfc was a very stormy and tumultuous affair. (Laughter) It was in the middle of September, 1&99y I think, Well, I aeed not describe to you the hideous shadow that haa fallen over our hearts smaa that meeting. (Hear, hear) I need no-.describe to you bow many homes, not- only in England, in G. reat Britain, but in the colonies, and in Bonth Africa, have been stricken and made desolate. We are providing for some 300,000 men in arms or in atten dance on men in arms. 800,000 ! We have foratra being drawn for something like 240,000 animals; and I for j my part am not ashamed—yoa inayj call me a sentimental idiot— to overlook in the enormity of suf ferings and miseries and horrors of war the sufferings of dumb animals. (Oheers) We have got thirty or forty thousand prisoners of war. They are quartered about.in half a dozen se. parate dependencies and colonies. We' have spent millions of treasure—tens of -mil-toni of treasure. And are you •ore that this has really advanced us to the position whith we wish to oc. «j_pyl {" No, no;") I think not. Gentlemen, I don't want to dwell lot-igh-, though 1«m prepared to do •o on tome other occasion, upon farm burning, upon oonoentra„on camps upon the atrocity of making innocent people witness the execution of their comrades. (Cheers,) Gentlemen, I care not what names they oall me I lay that wai aa infernal atrocity, (Loud cheer s.) Lord Mtlner, when be met President Kruger at Bloemfontein, in, I think, August 1899, had been glow, if he had been patient, if he had bargained, if he had been in fact a diplomatist— (hear, hear, and cheers)—do joa think there would have been war . I know they call me a pro-Boer j I am no pro- Boer. (Oheers) I am pro-England, iootlaad, Wales, and Ireland, (Cheers) 1 don't accept Boer oracles. But I say when yon got Mr Krager down ia Bloemfontein, and you put an English gentleman at one end of the table and President Kruger at the other, if that English gentleman had been wise, dis~ ere®., prudent, patient—-crafty, if you 1-kB-r there would have been no war. JOheere ) He oontina.d:—'My friend Lord Bosobery said tbe new League in its project li • flort of Anti-Corn Law League. (Laughter,) Now, bore wo are tonight standing in the MVcca of the AntUOorn Law League; (Ohoer.)' The Anti-Corn Law Leegue had one definite object— (hear, bear)—th. total •nd immediate repeal of the Corn L.wp; hear.) There was no mistake about what they me*nt. (Loud oheere.) That wts something worth fonndiog a League for, (Renewed cheers.) If th« new Lesgue will promise te give me a big loaf instead of a little loaf, I will join them tomorrow. (Hear, hear) How, 1 want to say nothing that is net good nalnml of this project. I don't think it calls for more. (Laughter.) I cannot for the life of me s.e what is lb© deSaito purposo this replica of tbe Anti-Corn Law League is to serve. Mr Morley ended his gpeech with the declaration that the extension ofktca government in Inland hJthertrt' randa did not in tny way solve the difficulty,
