Some say the Government ddes not really in- tend to send the bill to the House bf Lords this: session; but these critics do not pretend to Show how it is possible for the Government to drop the measure. Still others in- sist that the bill can never be pas- sed before another general election is beld. The Ministry complicated the situation this week by introducing the Manhood Suffrage Bill, The Home Rule doubters see in this latter measure prepareiion "for the inevitable electoral contest, since vote by abolishing all qu. for 'uffrage ting off fall plural voting. But the meastite could not aid the Ministry in any early day contest, as it wonld hate fs much, or more, trouble jn passing the Lords as would the Hothe Rule Bill itself. The Unionists affect great en- ceuragetient from the narrow ma- jority of sixty-nine, whereby the exclusion of Orange and Ulster Counties from the joperation of the Home Rule Bill was defeated on Tuesday night, but this is hot really significant, as it is far from representing any serious defection from the Liberal block.
