General Election.

DiRerinE Views 20 the Nesruess OF =
General Election.
DUBLIN April GA largo political meeting
at NenaGh. county Tipperary. was addressed
by Timothy Healy, John Dillon. Arthur O'Con-
nor. p ]. O'Brien. and other McCarthyits
members Of Parliament. Mr.. Healy declared
that the Liberals had kept their pledge in re-
gard to homo rule. and expressed his belief
that they will carry out to the letter their
agreement inlregard to Legislation for the BEN
1T Of evicted tenants. The Government's re-
fusal to liberate the Irish political prisoners,
he said. was matter OF regret. He thought
the Government should soon appeal to the
country. and he was csrtain that such an sp-
peal would result In the return Of large Lib
eral majority.
MIR. Dillon did not agree with Mr. Healy in
all respects touching an appeal to the country.
He did not believe that a general election was
near at hand. and did not think an early cleo
ton yo uld be OF advantage to the Liberal or
the Irish party; therefore. he counselled
Irishmen to do everything in their power to
delay a general election.
Mr.. O'Connor spoke on the land question
and appealed to all Irishmen to treat as social
outcasts all persons who had taken possession
OF farms from which tenants had been evicted.

To Dress Well
at Moderate Cost

is problem that must be faced by
many. Our success has been
largely due to the fact that we
furnish clothing equal in style, cut,
and finish to those of the high
priced tailors at a much less cost.
We keep up to the minute on
all new styles, as a rule are first to
introduce them to the retail trade.
With our own factory, prpduc-
ing large assortments of the high
est quality of clothing, joined with
the fact that during the months of
January, February, and March,
while custom tailors we're idle, we
were able to employ the best men
at low wages, we are in a position
to exceed all previous offers in
clothing, both in qualities and
prices.
Every detail of manufacture
is SO carefully watched that there
is slight chance of dissatisfaction.
If any should exist, our offer is
always open to return the money
cheerfully and promptly.
