Parnell’s Alliances and Home Rule Prospects
The piece argues Mr Parnell's triumph stems from Ireland’s cause rather than party loyalties. It notes Davitt’s warnings about Tory treachery, forecast that Beaconsfield’s move advances home rule, and claims Parnell can seek Whig or Radical support as needed. It ends predicting near-term home rule for Ireland and shifts in English politics.
