CUMMINS X. r. BILL FAIR TO ALL
DOES NOT ATTACK RIGHT
TO QUIT

Washington, Nov. l4-The Repu:
lican Publicity Association today gave
out the following statement from its
Washington headquarters:
Failure awaits the effort of labor
unions to spread the impression that
the anti-strike clause Of the Cum
minis railroad bill is an attack upon
the right of employees to quit, or their
right in any other respect. There is
no attack upon the rights of labor IN
that portion OF the bill. There has
been no attack upon the rights of
labor or just interests of labor among
Republican leaders. But there has
been and will continue TO be an effort
TO protect the rights Of all the peopl"
against unjust demands Of radical
labor leaders now in control of the
unions.
"Organized labor, like organized
capital, is one of the results of indus
trial evolution. Such organization,
whether of labor or capital, has been
advantageous to the country in many
ways. But the power that goes with
concentration is constant tempta-
ion to promotion of selfish interest
with disregard Of the rights and in
terests of the public. For that reason
We have laws curbing the activities of
capital, and for the same reason we
shall have laws designed TO prevent
imposition upon the public through
the power Of union mismanagement.
"Organized capital has wrought
veil for American industry. 1t has
developed new methods Of production;
il has reduced costs Of production by
increasing quantity Of production, by
Standardization, and by specialization;
II has created new markets for Amer
iran products, thus increasing the de-
mand for American labor; il made
possible the quick mobilization Of in
Austry for military purposes when the

est idea Of what proportional repre-

that 1t would be of an advantage to.
wards either the north or south in re.
lation to the present state of affairs.
The gloomiest picture of self-gov-
eminent in Ireland had been drawn
by Mr.. Samuels. So far as he recol-
lected in not one single place in Eng
land where Investigations into the
system had been made with reference
to parliamentary elections were the
people in favor of the change.
Was it fair to ask Ireland to accept
what had been rejected in England
and Scotland, because they though by
an indirect method to deal with the
menace of Sim Fem? The bill took
away privileges and rights, and dis.
eliminated between different parts OF
the kingdom. About all, it placed arbi
trary power in the hands of an adj
ministrative body.
Sir r. Woods, in maiden speech
said the bill gave some hope that a
way might be found out of the some
what chaotic condition of municipal
affairs. There was a growing minor
ity that considered that the only tests
for municipal elections should be bust
ness capacity and individual integrity
but owing to the impossibility of get
ting such men elected the idea had
been given up in despair.

were sliding to the ground and then
directing them where to go.
This went on for about 10 minutes
amidst indescribable commotion both
inside and outside the wall. There
was then a sudden pause, and this
was followed by shouts and cheers Of
derision, from the prisoners left be-
hind. The military guard, it is under
stood, had come to the rescue of the
wardens by this time, and the further
escape of prisoners was cut off.
Scattered Everywhere.
The prisoners who escaped dashed
in various directions. Police were
soon afterwards on the scene. Traffic
on the North Circular road was held
up, but the recapture of any of the
prisoners was not effected. The rope
ladder which was used In the escape
was seen lying across the wall at the
canal side long after the men had got
away. 1t is now in the hands of the
authorities. The men, on reaching
the group outside the high wall of the
jail, quietly walked away after mixing
with the crowd who came to help
them. Some went towards the N. G.
road; others crossed the canal to
Whitworth road; they scattered in all
directions. They had at least 20 min
utes' start Of the police.
The cheers and uproar within the
prison grounds were heard by the
crowds outside. The scheme was
made easy by the fact that several
police were engaged on duty in con-
nection with Phoenix Park races.
How Planned and Executed.
It is understood that the Deputy
Governor was in the exercise yard
!, when the wardens, at a signal from
outside the prison walls, were
pounced on by certain prisoners to
whom the task had been allotted, be-
forehand, and prevented from leaving
the yard or interfering with the es-
cape. At the same time the rope lad.
der was seen to come over the prison
wall, and it was at once mounted by
the prisoners, in a cool and collected
manner.
A number of the escaped men, on
reaching the outside world, departed
on bicycles which had either been

effective; while the Convention itself
confirmed both findings and fell back
frankly on the principle of nomina-
ton. Was 1t seriously put forward
that 1t would give representation to
the 1876 per cent Unionist minority in
Glare?
He and his colleagues desired what
was good for their country, but he be.
lieved sincerely that IL the Govern
ment went on with this mad proposal
they would do very bad days work
for Ireland. Lt.-Col. w. Guinness was
quite convinced that the result Of the
election at Sligo was to give far bet
ter representation to minorities than
could be obtained under the present
system.
Sir M. Dockrell claimed, amidst
laughter, that he stood that day as the
sole representative of 100000 Union
lists of the south of 1reland-the only
people on the beach. He strongly sup
ported the Bill, and could see nothing
but advantage in proportional repre-
sentation, for il they had it at the
last Parliamentary election he be-
lieved that they would have had an
other representative along with him.

resentation which for the last cen.
fury had been bowling that they were
an oppressed minority, and scream
ing for fair play. He did not, how
ever, wish the same sauce to be ap.
piled to the gander of Ulster as was
applied to the goose of the rest Of
Ireland.
Leave out Ulster-that was the
kernel Of the opposition to the Bill
on the part of the Ulster members.
The minority in Belfast, Derry, and
Tyrone must be forever ground down
by Ulster ascendancy and never. be
allowed to have fair registration. The
powerful minority from the northeast
corner had always been able to clog
the wheels of progress. Every great
measure of public reform proposed for
the benefit of all classes in Ireland
was opposed by them. The curse of
Ireland had been this ascendancy.
Several disabilities would have to be
removed II they wished to encourage
moderate opinion. Although the Sim
Fem party might for some time con-
tinue to hold majority in local coun-
ellis, a handful of moderates with in
side knowledge would lead to criti-
cism and reform, and there was no
doubt that modern opinion which was
so much needed in Ireland would be
Immediately strengthened and en-
couraged. The Nationalist had al
ways given the greatest consideration
to minorities, and the bill would give
fair representation to minorities,
whether southern Unionists or Ulster
Nationalist.
| Carson on Home Rule.
Sir Edward Carson entered his EN-.
phatic protest against this method of
the Irish Government of never having
the least regard to the opinion of
