"I have finally becomeconvinced after years of weary waiting, after many examples of inactionthat the British gove·rnment never hasmtended to give Home Rule to Ire­land. I rish Home Rule hills ,havecome up, and have nassed the Houseof Commons Innumerable times in thepas", thirty years. Surely it cannot bedue to accident that .every time thatthe Home Rule bill has pas.sed theHouse of Commons, some, nationalcrisis has arisen to stop further ae­tion. I have become fully convincedthat Britain has played the game ofconciliation, but never really intendedin the slightest degree giving usHome Rule-.Have No Freedom of Speech."Y ou people here in -America havenot heard the truth about the war, orindeed the truth about the true con·.ditions in Ireland. Truth and freespeech, apparently are the first cas­ualties of war. As far as Ireland isconcerned Britain .has killed the truth.I t was, I believe, during the firstweek of the war, back in 1914, thatSir Edward Grey stood before Parlia­.ment, and said that the brightestspot in the world was Ireland. N.ow,truthfully, it is the darkest."Great Britain, which is supposed-ly carrying on this war for the re­demption of the liberties of small na­tions which have been oppressed byGermany, had a magnificent oppor­tunity to show what she could do forpoor oppressed Ireland at that time.A bilt for Home Rule was passed atthe time. It got the official signa- •ture of King George. \Ve very nat­urally thought that wc were going to Ihave Horne Rule. But once moreBritain showed her double dealingand the bill was set aside.Bill Is Scrap of Paper.The hill has turned out to be ascrap oi paper, for the other day,Lloyd George tore it up in thc Houseof Commons, and declared that HomeRule was to be given to those who, wanted it. and that those who did notwant it should remain under theirpresent condition.

I t was merely a case ofvolunteers rising up to defend theirliberties. They wanted to assert theliberty of Ireland. They wanted toset up an Irish republic; to give Ire­land a place in the sun.

Sheseized the innocent and rewardedthem with death.Britain Murders Husband."Britain murdered my husband.

The orders for thewhole affair came from Dublin cas­tle.

They were told to walkacross a courtyard. But before theywere half way across, they were tiredupon by a squad. They were all shotin the back. �ry husband did not diefrom the first volley. and so the cap­tain ordered up another firing squad,to complete the murder."I know positively that the officersw ho had a hand in this, and manyother murders of a like kind, havesince bern promoted by the, Britishgo\·ernm("nt.
