BRIEF TELEGRAMS

Dublin.-lreland does not propose To
buy pig in a poke" in the approach
ing general election. John Redmond
made that plain by having the Nation
aiists refrain from voting either on the
budget or the Asqulth resolution fol-
owing the rejection of the finance bill
by the lords. l asked one of the lea:-
ing Nationalists the other day for dn
explanation as to the action of the
irish NJ. P.'s on these important divis-
ions. He said: 1T is very simple. Th-
one object of the Irish Parliamentary
party is home rule for Ireland; the 6s-
tablishment of an Irish parliament in
Dublin with the same authority over
irish affairs as the parliament of Otia-
wa has over Canadian affairs. We
would prefer to act with the Liberals
in securing this. While there are some
things in the budget We do net like,
they are insignificant as compared to
home rule. If Mr. Asquith can give us
satisfactory assurances that in case of
Liberal success he will give us home
rule, not on the line Of Mr.. Biirell's
Irish council bill, but real home rule,
he can have Irish support in the gen
eral election in the British constituent
cies. If not, we are prepared to see
what we can do with Mr.. Balfour and
the Unionists. BY refraining from Vot-
ing in the two divisions to which you
allude, we are in better position to deal
with which ever party is prepared to
give US what we want. We simply
served noeice on Mr.. Asquith that ne,
as you say in the states, will have to
show us -

the Irish fund for the relief of the
widows and orphans Of the Spanish SOL
diers killed in Morocco. The movement
has the hearty approval of Cardinal
Logue who in a recent letter wrote.
Il think it would be most deserving
charity to raise fund on behalf OF
the widows and orphans Of the Span
ish soldiers killed in Morocco. This
fund would come appropriately from
lrishmen, seeing that Ireland received
in the past such generous aid from
Spain and genuine sympathy in her
suffering. Another consideration is that
Spain is now engaged in the old con-
fiict which far centuries has ragged be-
