Spread Of Irish Volunteer Move
ment Gives Serious Outlook
to Opposition from Lords
Says 7. P. O'Connor.

The action Of the Tories in allow
ing the third reading for the third
time Of the home rule bill without
any attempt at further debate shows
they now recognize the game is up
and that the great conspiracy against
the ministry. the parliament act and
home rule has finally failed.
Everybody now realizes that In q
few weeks the home rule bill becomes
the law Of the land. This produces
an entirely new situation. the diff
dculties Of which are much greater
to the tories than to the liberals.
The tories have now to choose be-
tween two equally difficult alterna-
tives. Either they will reject the
amending bill and allow home rule
to pass to the statute book without
any concession, or they will table for
the FIRST time their own proposals Of
amendment. s2i. fa.
Thus the previous position be-
tween the ministry and the tories
will be reversed, for while up to the
present the liberals have had to do
all the bidding, the tories must try
their hands at it. 4
This brings them face to face with
.rna1x asah1rrassments and compels
them to make Anal surf der to The
principal Of home rule by vote for
the second reading Of the. amending
bill. The opposition leaders still
press the tory leaders to fight on
without considering any concession.
hoping that when the ministry is
brought face to face with threats of
civil war in Ulster they will find the
army mutinous and refusing to do its
duty. 'Tf
If these tactics be adopted, then
the course Of the government is quite
simple. First, the Irish bill will be
put on the statute book. Then, in
case Of disorder. some regiments will
be ordered to 60 to Ulster uncondi-
tionally and If these regiments refuse
then other regiments will be ordered,
and If they again refuse. then the
ministry will accept the challenge
and go to the country on the question
Of whether the army or parliament
shall govern England.
