"Sir Edward Carson and his friends"

same impracticable attitude which they
took up before the war, still insisting
upon the partition of Ireland"
After denouncing the attitude of the
war office on recruiting in Ireland at
the outbreak of the war and reviewing
the events of the rebellion, Lord Mac
Donnell declares that unless the gov
eminent wishes things to go from bad
to worse it must adopt one of two
courses-either giving Ulster the op-
ton of joining in the Irish parliament
from the outset or, preferably, bring
ing all the Irish counties Immediately
under the jurisdiction of an Irish
parliament and assuring the unionists
special representation for a fixed term
of years which would protect them
from acts of legislative oppression that
they profess to fear.
Tint Sunday Times, which is a con-
sentative paper, says editorially:
"The adhesion of the United States
to the cause Of the allies makes it
more than ever essential to remove
the one blot on the unity of the en-
pire, namely, the Irish question. The
nation demands practical measures to
give effect to the universal demand for
a settlement"

was undersecretary for Ireland from
1902 to 1908, during which period he
prepared a scheme of Irish revolution
which resulted in the fall of the con-

that the government must act to solve
the Irish problem. Even though pub

and though the excellent feeling pre-
vailing among Irish soldiers Of all
classes and creeds at the front leads
to the same conclusion, yet, he says,
