Some Significant Words.
After raiding United Ireland to his satis-
faction, and giving friends and enemies
alike n view OF his character heretofore not
dreamed of, Parnell went to the Rotunda
and spoke to a packed audience He re-
peated the arguments heretofore dweit
upon by him, to the effect that the plans
or Gladstone III regard TO home rule would
not be found satisfactory unle~s the Irish
party maintained rs independence and ex-
acted the proper degree of local powers as
the price OF their support of the Liberals.

at the parting of thes,ways. 1t is an issue
whose meaning is life Or death. You can
not avoid the issue forced upon you. II
