London, Feb. 17.-LOrd Rose perry
spoke very decidedly at Liverpool Sat-

Importance is attached to what he
said. He commended DR.. Kuyper,

had been we'll worthy of the Govern
ment S consideration, notwithstanding
the limited nature Of the commission
the delegates possessed. He reassert.
ed his repudiation of an alliance with
the Irish. The claims OF the Nation
alist could not be conceded, be said.
They had leclared that nothing short
of absolute separation would satisfy
them, and no sane man would ever
advocate granting them independence,
which in lime Of war might turn the
balance between the success and de-
feat of the British army.

Acquitted

On Monday morning after be.
ing out about 40 hours, the jury
in the Kid Hall case brought in
a verdict Of not guilty.
AS a matter. of fact, there we're
a great many who had expressed
themselves on this particular
case and considered that Hall
should be convicted.
The main reason for this ad.
verse sentiment seemed to orig.
mate on account of Hall being
connected with saloon, and
that is where those who deal in
liquors are unjustly condemned.
A great many men who want
to do something bad or com nit
a crime. after due thought and
generalization, proceed TO tank
up with a big load OF whiskey
and then under the plea Of being
drunk and not mentally respon.
sible, start out to wreak their
vengeance on some fellow NOR.
tai.
The saloon keeper is supposed
to be polite. obliging and usually
expected TO take considerable
abuse under ordinary circum
stances. and no end OF them have
died with their boots on. simply
because they failed to protec.
themselves.
With public sentiment prac
tically against Hall and a jury
out 40 hours it simply shows
that his attorneys, Judge r. 3.

G. K. Dubois, of this city, had a
hard fight to clear their client,

a man for his life and liberty.
Let every man have a fair show
no matter what his occupation
in life may be.
Judge J. w. Timmins, who
presided over the trial. showed

case and deserves great com.
