DUBLIN, ireland, Nov. 6.-When
an lrishman complains to the world
about British military oppression"
it is quite the thing for the military
to call him a liar and assassin and
to deny it.
So the Irish Sim Fem political or
ganization just now is trying to
prove their case by using the words
of Englishmen who have investigated
conditions in Ireland.
Only few days ago a number of
well known Englishmen addressed a
statement to their fellow country
men, through the London Times, urg
ing the necessity of the abandonment
by the British government of its pol
icy of repression in Ireland.
Among those who signed the state
ment were General hubert Cough,
H. G. Wells the author, John MaseS
field and Phillip Gibbs, one of Eng
lands foremost journalists.
System Not Justice, They Charge.
To quote from their statement:
Few Englishmen have any idea
of the lengths to which this policy
has been carried The Coercion
Act marks the climax of this policy
Court martial justice will become
the rule. 1t is provided that men
may be kept indefinitely in prison
without trial. A court may sit in Sc
cret.
This is not system of justice.
It is designed for the punishment of
political movement.
every solution of the Irish cues
ton presupposes friendly feeling
between England and Ireland and we
are stimulating hatred. Thus, only
by changing our policy can we create
the atmosphere necessary to the sue
cessful working of any solution of
the Irish question"

THE TRUTH ABOUT IRELAND.
Irish Are Turning To British
Probers For Proof of Charges
Constabies Have Unlimited Power.

Constabies Have Unlimited Power.
At present the constables or sol
diers may raid the home Of an irish
man at night. drag him away to pris-
on or stand him up against a wall
and shoot him without trial and the
local coroner, nine times out of ten
a Sim Feiner, cannot hold an in
quest and return a verdict of muir
der against the soldiers or constables.
The British stopped these inquests
because the coroner .vcrdicts render
ed were generally political docu-
ments.
After Lord Mayor MacCurtain of
Cork had been taken from his home
and shot to death some months ago,
the Cork coroner listed Premier
Lloyd George, along with the con
stables, as those guilty of the muir
der.
Unlimited latitude is allowed the
military and constabulary operating
in Ireland Upwards of $4,000 raids
have been made on Irish homes in
a hunt for seditious literature, fire
arms and other evidences of disloyal
ty to the king; 20 Irish newspapers
were suppressed at one time for
printing advertisements for the Irish
republic loan; some 5000 arrests of
Sim Fem leaders and sympathizers
have been made; 81 Sim Fein mem
bers of the "Irish Parliament" were
in prison at the time of their cleo
ton; 81 more members have either
been imprisoned since their election
or are now being hunted Y the
British authorities with a view of
imprisoning them; some $500 depor-
tation of Irishment; numerous fairs
and other public gatherings shpress-
ed; and about Is Irishmen shot. ac-
cording to the Republican govern
ment figures.

Members Of the union will meet
tonight to hear the report of the
executive committee which has been
in almost daily conference with the
employers for over a week. While
the nature Of the report the COM
inittee will make. to. the union is
being maintained a secret until to-
nights meeting, enough has been
learned to indicate that the final an
swer ef the employers us trans.
mitted to the Workingmcn's com.
mittcc at a joint meeting today at
noon, constitutes in effect flat re.
fusal Of the main demands Of the
workers.

increase over tho S. per day niini-
mum, for foundry laborcrs, who are

equal to the wages already being
drawn by that class, of workmcn.
According to the expressed atti-
tllde of the officials and rank and
file of the WOrl<ingmcn's union, ii
is considered probable that in face
of the refusal by the employers to
grant the demands, a strike will be
called to start probably on Monday
morning..
In event Of sucl, strike, the
walkout will have far-rcaching con-
sequences. In 1916 when the Work
ingmen's union struck, all street car
traffic in Ruttc was tied up for a
period of 10 days., 1t was also
stated autloritativcly that numerous
