Earring accident as race horse men say, home rule should win this time, but there's always the possibility of an acci- dent and that's what the unionists are hoping for.
 At present the government is galloping along towards the winning post hundred votes ahead of the opposition and With the applause and good wishes of the ma jority of the English people and or ai- most all the Irish people
 The criticism of the bill by its enemies only serves as an opportunity for It's friends to praise it, and the more se- verely 1t is condemned by the unionists the better it is liked by the nationalists. It promises to bring peace, happiness and prosperity to Ireland. the three very things the unionists don't want Ireland to have It promises to strengthen the British empire by making the Irish loyal instead of a hostile people, but the unionists don't consider the safety and strength of the empire when they fear their own personal interests are likely to suffer. The bill will relieve the British parliament of a vast amount of legisla- tion, which can be done better and cheaper in Ireland, but the unionists knows that his seat in parliament and his occupation as a henchman of the con- servative party will be gone If Ireland gets home rule. The bill will put all religions in Ireland upon an equality. but equality is hateful to those who have for cen turies been in the ascendancy. The word justice, sounds harshly and ominously to him who has been unjust. and the word restitution" sends a shiver through him who possesses stolen property. Little wonder is it then that there should be so much screaming and squealing by the unionists as they view with alarm the spectre of retribution pass before their disordered minds.
