RETALIATORY TACTICS

The chief factor operating to bring
Irish affairs to a head is the latest
phase of warfare, that of retaliation.
The events of the past few days have
shown that when ASA ssinations occur
it means an outbreak of revenge by
the other party, in which peaceable
people suffer. There is no prediction
how far these outbreaks may go.
More Troops in Belfast
Another battalion of soldiers ar
rived in Belfast today, making five on
the ground. Three regiments of cav
airy at Aldershot have been ordered
to be ready to proceed to Ireland. The
Lord Mayor of Belfast has issued an
appeal to the citizens of that city for
, aid in restoring order, declaring that
the authorities are determined to use
drastic measures to deal with dis
order
No Prospects of Settlement
Small interest has been excited in
Ireland by the tentative proposals at
tributed to Mr.. Lloyd George, regard
ing dominion home rule with the par
tition of six Ulster counties. The AS
ISOLATED Press correspondent has seen
several politicians of various views
and all agree that there is no i'm
mediate prospect of settlement in
that direction. Sir Horace and his
followers declared their belief that
firm offer of dominion rule for all Ire
land, leaving the Ulster position for
adjustment within ireland, might
have a chance. but said the offer must
be definite and authoritative. Men
ffrom this section said they believed
| the quickest way out of the difficulty
would be the establishment of a statu-
tory elective convention of all Irish
men with the power to settle their
, own constitution.
Sim Fein Not Committed
There has been much activity dur
, ing the past fortnight and Sir Hamar
! has collected considerable opinion
from the moderates, but the Sim Fein
is not committed in any way. The
Volunteers are regarded as constitut-
ing a powerful influence against a
compromise. Labor intervention
through Mr.. Thomas is said to be
provoking Sim Fem irritation, The
Sim Fem press says it considers Mr..
Thomas merely as Mr.. Lloyd Georges
bonnet acting in the interests Of
English domination and pushing for
| ward dominion rule as Red herr
Ing"
Today's Nationalist press resumes
its denunciation of Sir Hamars
speech in the House of Commons on
Thursday. The Freeinan's Journal
says:
Greenwood is the biggest flivvcr
Canada ever sent to England"
The Irish Independent says.
Greenwood fails in the part Of
| Cromwell because he has no initiative
and has taken orders from Carson"

SITUATION TENSE

London, July 2o-Sir Horace Plum
kett, founder of the Irish Dominion
League and leader of the Moderate
Irish Nationalist Opinion. told Il
Newcastle audience today that the
situation in Ireland is more alarm
ing than it has been within his
knowledge of 60 years.
Pessimism Everywhere
A similar view is reelected by the
newspapers of both England and
Ireland of all shades of politics. 1t
found expression in all the speeches
of Thursdays discussions in the
House of Commons. even Sir Edward
Carson declaring he had never
known anything like the state of
anarchy prevailing and that lin
three-Quarters of Ireland, the Brit
ish government has been entirely
beaten" Sir Hamar Greenwood,
chief secretary for Ireland, warned
the country to brace itself against 4
bitter period in Irish history. 4.
Halt in Rioting
The rioting in Belfast subsidized to-
day but there are plenty of signs
that. the lull is only temporary.
Both from Premier Lloyd-George' S
statement to the Labor delegation
Thursday and from Sir Hamar's
speech it is considered apparent that
the government regards parting of
the ways as having been reached.
One road leads toward negotiation
with the Sim Fein on the basis of a
dominion form of government, while
the other apparently leads toward
the bitter perior which Sir Hamar
foresees, with more soldiers and
stricter laws for repression. Fore
most among them one for the trial
Of criminals by summary court mar
tails and the giving up of attempts
to induce jurymen to answer to a
summons.
Factions Wide Apart
There are two extreme factions in
Ireland now. the Orangemen of the
north, who insist upon maintaining
the Irish system as it is. and the
Sim Feiners who demand independ-
