. . . Let me now explain what it will do for 84 HIS IRISH LEGISLATION the labourer. It will give to the Irish labourer, for the purpose of building houses and fencing in small plots of land, the sum of £115, 000 a year in perpetuity — that is to say, the £115, 000 will every year be spent under the provisions of this measure for the building of cottages for Irish labourers. " And Mr John Red- mond, the present leader of the Irish Party, in an article in the Fortnightly Review for May 1892, wrot...e : "In spite of its defects it must be acknowledged that the Land Act of last year is a great measure, and for my part I do not grudge Mr Balfour any meed of praise he may be entitled to on its account. " Such eulogiums, coming from men w^ho for years had strained every nerve to destroy his reputation and thwart his policy, must have been very gratifying to Mr Balfour. After so many years of wearying toil, of patient industry, and of hard fighting, Mr Balfour must have experienced feelings of deep satisfaction and genuine thankfulness in successfully achieving his object of bringing happiness and prosperity to the country whose affairs he was called upon at such a critical time to administer, by passing legislation which constrained the blessing of the Irish leaders and the profound gratitude of the Irish people.
