MeetWith Cool ReCep=
ton at the Hands of
The UniOnists in
Parliament
WOULD-BE CANCELLATION Of
FEREVlDENTLY NOT SUCCESS

London, March 9.-The British gov
ernment's plan for the conciliation OF
the Unionists of Ulster in connection
with the Irish home rule bill was laid
before the House of Commons today
and met with but cool reception from
the Unionists. The terms of Premier
Asquith's offer were that poll should
be taken of the parliamentary cleo
tors of each county of Ulster to de-
eide before the bill became operative,
whether they should exclude from the
opera ton of the bill for a period of
six years from the first meeting of
the new Irish Parliament This is
was pointed out, would result almost
undoubtedly in the exclusion from
Irish home rule of the counties of
Antrim, Armagh, Londonderry and
Down.
The announcement was made before
an unusual gathering of lords and
members of the House of Commons
and other distinguished persons, who
listened to Premier Asquith's speech,
lasting an hour, with the most intense
interest. Just before the conclusion
of his address, the Premier remark
ed that nobody was in love with ex-
clusion for it's own sake, and con-
tinued II do not expect those propos-
ais to be received with enthusiasm,
but I do ask for them deliberate and
dispassionate consideration. They Of
fer to the men of Ulster free choice
and the certainty that the political
standing cannot be changed without
the assent of the Imperial Parlia-
To r.
tlement in which the proposition Of
give and take is likely to be so fairly
adjusted"
In the course of his speech the Pre-
mier pointed out that the government
had chosen the period of six years be-
cause it would give ample time to test
the working of the Irish Parliament,
and also an opportunity to the electors
of the United Kingdom, guided by
that experience, to pronounce whe-
ther the exclusion of the counties of
Ulster should come to amend. Assun1-
ing that the present Imperial Parlia-
ment should be dissolved before the
end of 1915 and the Irish Parliament
assemble in July 1915, the next Impe-
rial Parliament could not last beyond
November 1920 Therefore said the
Premier, there must be two general
elections before inclusion could occur.
The counties would come in at the
expiration of the sixth year unless the
Imperial Parliament decided otherwise.
In the meantime education and local
government in the excluded counties
would be dealt with locally by the
creation of some local board.
Andrew Bonar Law, leader of the
Opposition Immediately rose and OBJ
jected to the six year limit and de-
manded a dissolution of the Imperial
Parliament on the question.
He was followed by John H. Red
mond, leader of the Nationalists, who
declared that although the concessions
went too far. he and his colleagues
would agree to them for the sake of
peace.
