"Has the Governmenta anv efforts in view to-
ward a direct relief of people in such districts
as ConnemaraP"
"Iam not very much in tho secrets of the
Government, and can only Judge of their inten-
ton in this respect from what has appeared
about their policy in the press. A royal Com.
mission appointed by this Government re-
portsd in favor of constructing a light
railway from Galway to Clifden, and
such e work. II carried out. would benefit
Connemara very much while it would give an
impetus to the fishing industry on the coast
each side of Clifden. Other schemes Of public
works are also recommended by this same
Commission, and Mr. Cham berlain is backing
up their proposals by advocating them in his
Birmingham Post as plan of sett ling tho Irish
question. Both the Government and Mr..
Chamberlain evidently believe they can seduce
tho Irish people from the National cause II
thew offer them enough bribes. Consequently
farmers are to have State money loaned to
them with which to purchase their holdings.
agricultural laborers are to find employment
in huge public works. while fishermen are to
have harbors built for the benefit of their in
dustry. All this can and may be done. and
good may come Of 1t in tho lessening Of paupers
and idleness but tho demand for home rule
will not grow ono iota less in strength or in
psrsistency on that account The Irish people
will not sell their birthright OF national liberty
for any combined mess OF Tory and Chamber
