Excerpt from Speech by the Hon. Edward Blake Q. C., M. P., Ex-Premier of Ontario Canada: In Connection With the Frome Division Liberal Association, and in Supporting a Resolution of Confidence in Mr. Gladstone's Government, at the Guildhall, Bath, January 27th, 1893 Mr. Blake, M. P. Who had a most enthusiastic reception (the audience cheering upstanding), sup ported a hearty resolution of complete confidence in the Government. He said. Mr. Chairman, ladies and gentlemen. You are doubtless well aware that the party to which I belong (the Irish Nationalist party), is not one of the sections into which unhappily the Liberal party is more or less divided, is not any part of the Liberal party, but is and has been recognised by your great leader, to be properly an independent party, acting and co-operating together for the accomplishment of one single paramount national purpose, the attainment of Home Rule for the country which we represent. (applause). How comes it then that I appear before you to-night at a meeting of Liberals, to support as I do, from the bottom of my heart, this resolution of confidence in a Liberal government (applause.) It comes because the Independent Irish Nationalist party of which I am an humble member), is engage and has for years been engaged, by a bond of honourable alliance with the Liberal party, formed in 1886, and pursued in circumstances of considerable difficulty, and much sacrifice, by both the Liberal party and the Irish Nationalist party - faithfully pursued ever since engaged in bonds.
