HOME RULE FOR ERIN
 DESPITE OPPOSITION
British Premier Suggests Ireland May Be Forced to Accept Local Self
 Government

Leeds, England Nov. 2S.-In 8 speech delivered here last night Premier Asquith informed his hearers that whether she want ed it or not, the government was deter mined to force home rule upon Ireland.
 The minister said that for 50 years Ire land had been clamoring for the right to govern herself, and that now the British government was about to grant that right and that the most remarkable feature of the case was that Ireland, or part of Ire land, was so opposed to what they had tried so long and so valiantly to get that they were actually preparing to fight the government if the home rule bill was passed
 In conclusion the premier stated posi- lively that home rule would be given to Ireland, and if she didn't want it it might have to be forced upon her.

Detestable,,s' : Says

II ONDON, Nov. 18.-Rev.
IL Moritz Weston, in an
address to the Women's
Freedom league, said that the
most formidable bar to the
economic independence of
women was home, sweet
home," which he called the
most detestable institution
ever imagined.
He said he did not wonder
at the desire of the youth of
both sexes to leave it.
"A sacrilegious sacrifice must
be made" he continued. THE
home must be destroyed. The
sooner a wife understands that
the washtub and the cooking
ranges are not the sole aims of
her existence the better it will
be for the emancipation of
women"
