who are responsible for the crimes of tho
League cruelties and boycotting and who
are mere tools of clerical domination, and
an attempt to set MP such Parliament Will
inevitably result in disorder, violence and
bloOdshed TO an extent that has been I'M
known in Ireland for n century. Major
Saunderson denied that the British Parlia-
ment had any right to hand them over to
another Legislature which they would
never obey, and the sentiment was received
with frantic cheering. Theodore w. Rus

in Ireland under the Dublin Parliament.
Finally, general and executive committees
were appointed.
The public sense of the danger and i'm
portance OF this agitation Is growing. Over
one hundred conform st Irish hi nlsters
have agreed TO be deputies for the Ulster
ties and stump Great Britain to arouse
religious anImus. The Irish Unlonls;s In

Mr.. Gladstone had promised to vote in
support of the Scotch local veto bill, and
the government has decided to remain neu-

affirms the local option principle will be
triumph for the teetotalers. Its PRACTICAL APP
