0 engage in the politics Of the country, savS
!. That no good can come TO Ireland from
the British Parliament, and that Ireland
!: can never be prosperous or happy till she
+ has complete control Of her own destinieS
and her connection with England ls en-.
tlrely severed. With regard 10 the prea.
ent home rule movement, he thinks II

aspirations OF the people; that Il is a sicklv
and nerveless effort TO patch up the
nations quarrel In complete aud satiStac.
tory manner. He considers the movement
mere milk'and.water national effort. He
will not place himself In antagonism with
the Home Rule movement, but he intends
10 demonstrate 10 England and the world
that there Is something stronger and more
determined in Ireland than the Home
kule. He has o firm conviction that
England will never grant selfgovernmenT
to Ireland until forced TO do SO, and that
all her delucive concessions 10 Ireland
have been wrung from her BY force or
lear,oi It He himself will seek the suf-
frages OF the people on the broad pripci-
pie OF Ireland's right TO complete indie
pendence. BE has belief that the
British Government will not arrest him,
but should they do so he ia prepared 10
take the consequences,
