THE ULSTER TROUBLE

Here are a few of the reasons
for the threatened war against
home rule:
The Orangemen of North Ireland
ever since the days of William of
Orange have placed allegiance to
the British crown above the Irish
independence.
The rest Of the Irish have waged
q c%entury-old fight for home rule,
which is now nearing successful
culmination.
Home rule would give control of
the Irish government to those who
have always been bitter enemies of
the Orange faction.
This has created a situation
which is a political paradox-Uls-
ter's Oraugemen, who have always
supported the home government in
refusing Irish home rule, nov are
in arms against the home govern
ment because it has changed its
policy and faVors home rule.
Ireland has striven for home rule
without a moments cessation ever
since the Irish parliament was abol-
ished and the legislative union of
Great Britain and Ireland was pro-
claimed on January l, 1901.
In the 1l3 years that have passed
since that date the agitation has
gone under various forms, pacific
and violent, led by such patriots as
Daniel O'Connell, William Smith
O'Brien, Charles Stewart Parcel,
O'Donovan Rosa and Michael Dav-
lit, to mention only a few of the
more prominent. These were sue
ceeded by the Redmonds and the
Healys, who are the forefront of
the movement today.
The patriotic movement was sup
pressed time after time by coercion
acts passed by the British parlia-
ment; only to take another form.
The first effort of the British
government to meet the demand
for Irish home rule was made by
the late William Ewart Gladstone,
when premier. in 1886. The bill
was rejected after its introduction
had brought about a great split in
the Liberal party, which caused the
secession of Joseph Chamberlain
and other liberal leaders, who
since on Irish questions, have act
ed with the conservative party.
Since then several Irish home
ruls bills have been introduced by
Liberal Governments, and the last
one passed the House Of Commons,
but was rejected by the House of
Lords.
This led to the passage, three
years ago, of the parliament act
under the provision Of which any
bill, not an appropriation bill, re.
jected by the House of Lords be-
comes automatically a Law on pasE-
ing the House Of Commons in three
successive sessions.
The present agitation has been
mainly brought about by the prac.
tical certainty Of Premier Asquith's
Irish home rule bill becoming law
without the consent Of the House
Of Lords. Sir Edward Carson is ut
the head Of the agitation against
home rule among the Unionists OF
Ulster. He and several other lead
ing men took the initiative in crga-
MIXING an ar ny Of Ulster volun-
teers to resist the introduction of
home rule for Ireland in it's en-
tiFety. They insisted that Ulster
should be left out CT it's operation.
The chief point at issue in Ire.
land is the religious one. Out Of o
total population of about $500, 600
approximately 100000 are Protest
ants of various denominations.

RaptiSa Program.

A very entertaining program was
given at the Baptist church Wednes-
day evening. The proceeds from the
free will offering taken were sent to
the foreign missions.
The program opened with a violin
duet by Miss Marie Holmes and Hor-
ace Reno, following which Miss
Mamie Holmes gave vocal solo, and
her pleasing voice met the apprecia-
tion of all hearers. Riley Davis,
whose popularity is well known, rem
dered a selection on his voilin, Edna
Dougherty played beautiful piano
solo. Mr.. Rasor next gave vocal
solo, much to the satisfaction Of the
listeners. Following these there was
a duet by the Misses Ferne Murphy
and Eleanor Bailey, a song by Merrill
Butterfield, trombone solo by V. o.
n. Smith, two piano selections by
Mrs. Blackstone. and. finally, a piano
solo by Miss Alene Bomar.
Every performer received hearty
encores, There was good crowd
present. During the evening Rev.
Ogg talked on foreign missions in
India, which was very interesting.
The platform was beautifully deco
rated with flowers OF every descrip-
tion.

Six First Prizes
For Permission

S. Permission carried off six first
prizes and one second in seven eX-
hibits of flowers at the county fair
at Medford last week. He is now
preparing to make like exhibit at
the state fair and hopes to be as sue
cessful in the state competition.
Mr.. Permission is not florist in
the commercial sense, but cultivates
his little residence plot solely from
an innate love of beauty and flow
ers. His place on the corner of Hell
man and Mechanic is one great bower
OF beauty and attracts the attention
of every passer His flower beds are
arranged with great detail as to color
and harmony and are largely made
up of the old-fashioned varieties cul-
tivated to their highest perfection.
Dahlias are especially the favorite
flower of Mr. Permission, and here
will be found almost every variety
grown in the country. The beds are
bordered with the new Martha Wash
ington, which bloom from early
spring until late in the fall. His
peony dahlias (Geisha) are just what
the japanese name implies, dancing
girls. They are large of bloom,
strong and vigorous, and the petals
spread in profusion and remind one
of the dancing girls of the Flowery
kingdom
Mr.. Permission is strong in the be-
lief that the second premium would
have been a first had it not been
for the fact that he was compelled
to cut his flowers the day before the
award was made, while competitors
exhibiting were fortunate enough to
be located so they could offer theirs
on the same day they were cut.
The premiums taken were as fol,
lows:
First prize for the best collection
of geraniums.
First prize for the best genera
exhibit of dahlias
First prize for the best genera
decorative dahlias.
First prize for the best genera
exhibit of peony dahlias.
First prize for the best genera
exhibit of collarette dahlias.
First prize for the best genera
showing of dahlias.
Second prize for the best genera
display of cactus dahlias.

There are outstanding checks and
supply checks for fighting recent
fires aggregating 1900, and notes at
banks, including last years note of
$3.50 to be met, $2,15O.
1T has been carefully estimated
that including the cost of patrol and
leaving a small balance for possible
fires, $4,000 will be sufficient to meet
the needs of the Association for the
present season without calling on the
members for any further assessment.
The force of patrolmen will be re-
duced, weather permitting, on Sep
tember Is, and every other possible
economy practiced.
Accordingly at a meeting of the
board of directors of the association,
held in Medford, September 8, 1914,
an additional assessment was duly
levied upon the timber lands of all
members of the association at the rate
of u cents per acre"

Extra Assessment
Has Been Levied

We print the following quotation
from the circular letter sent to tim
ber land holders throughout the coun
ty, by the County Fire Patrol Asso-
citation:
For more than eleven weeks, since
June Is last, practically no rain fell
in Jackson county, until the present
week, with the result that since July
8 the association has been constantly
fighting fires, which were burning in
many parts of the county at the same
time. The fires were eXtinguished or
controlled before any substantial
damage was suffered by the timber.
Patrols have been maintained and
fires fought on more than 233, 900
acres of timber belonging to the asso-
citation, and yet the timber has sus-
tanned less than $500 actual damage
throughout the whole county. This
was accomplished only with the ex-
penditure of comparatively large
amounts of money represented by the
assessments and by loans from the
banks, which extended the association
credit until another assessment could
be levied.
From the assessment levied April
10, 1914, and from all other sources,
including $1,000 borrowed from
banks, there have been collected
$4,964.74. This has been expended
as follows:
Fire patrol and supplies. $ S04.30
Constructing telephones. 1,15O.00
Fire fighting ......... 1885. 90
Salaries and office expenses 25O.00
