Bostonians Generously Con-
tribute to Home Rule Fund.
AN ADDRESS BY EDWARD BLAKE.
Predicts Early Success OF the Home
Rule Party-The Party Asks for
$24O,OOO for Use During the Pres
ent Year--A Reception TO Blake.

BosrON, Feb. Hon. Edward Blake,
NJ. P., the Irish Nationalist of Canada and
leader in the home rule cause in the
British parliament, spoke upon the sub
ject of home rule for Ireland in Music
hall last evening. under the auspices of
the Boston Municipal council OF the Irish
National federation. He was greeted by
an audience of about 5000 people, and his
appeal for funds to aid i'm carrying on the
work OF the cause of his party resulted in
the raising of little more than 5000
Mayor Mathews presided, and upon the
stage were many distinguished citizens of
Boston and vicinity. The meeting adopted
resolutions 60 the effect that the citizens
of Boston encouraged Gladstone in his
efforts to free the Emerald Isle and pledge
to him their moral support. This cable
gram was sent to Justin Mccarthy: EN-
thusiastic reception accorded Hon. Ed
ward Blake. One thousand pounds ster
ling result of meeting. Friends In Mas
sachusetts will do their duty"
Home Rulers Not Dislnayed.
Mr.. Blake reviewed the struggle of the
home rule party in the past and predicted
its success in the early future. He said
that the recent defeat of the home rule
bill in the house Of lords was expected and
that the party that had supported the
measure was not ut all dismayed.
Although the house of lords was ire
sponsible to the people, and its members
only title to their positions was that they
were the sons of their fathers it would
not, as 1t has shown by its action, dare to
set aside home rule when that cause Is de-
clared at the elections to be the wish of
the people. And that expression is sure
to come, he said.
Mr.. Blake went on TO explain the exact
position of the home rule allies at this
time, and outlined their course for the
future.
In speaking of present conditions in
Ireland, Mr.. Blake denounced the present
system OF county government there, and
showed that in counties having popula-
tion of 660, 900 Catholics and 1900 Prot
estants, offices were filled by ia Protest
ant Unionists and two Catholic Nation.
alists.
The Disposition Of Funds.
The home rule party asks for S240, 900
this year from its friends to aid IL in it's
work. Forty five thousand dollars of that
sum must be applied to the provisions of
Irish Nationalist candidates at the next
election. The Irish propaganda will need
go, 900, and elO,0 900 should be used in the
registration of voters: ss5. 900 will be neces-
sary for the support of evicted tenants in
Ireland. and the debt of $4,000 incurred
at the last election must be met.
Mr.. Blake was rendered a reception and
banquet in the afternoon, and was enter
tanned by party Of representative Irish
Americans of Boston and vicinity. He
returned TO Toronto today and sails for
England next week.
