The revolution of time has again brought Asquith into prominence in British politics, and again he is proving himself a traitor to British interests by urging that the Irish be given their independence, with the rights to raise an army and navy and other war materielâ€"the same rights as the Dominiion of Canada and the other British Dominions now hold.

As time went on the agitation for Independence or Home Rule upâ€"not soâ€"much by the masses, but by a gang of agitators who, to work, sought to live by their own cunning schemes off the money poorer classes and the dupes who believed these agitators would hy But many of them did not take spending their time working and en holdings, spent their time in agitatin fighting. These agitators raised money, not only from the Irish themselves,; in Ireland, but from Irishmen all over the world, and especially in the United States; and this money was used, not really for the gaining of Irish indeâ€" pendence but for the keeping up in comfort, opulence and ease, the agitators themselves. And these "martyrs â€"they all are willing to willing to stand up like Their motto is "Stab in the dark and get away"â€"and to give Independent Government to this nest of traitors would be less safe than warming a ratâ€" tlesnake in your bosom.

In other words, the agitators were playing the ] believe them for suckers and living on the proceeds Statesmen Duped!

Not only did the suckers, but by their even great men such No greater deceit was ever played upon the world than has been played upon it by the fasting, wouldâ€"be, living, Irish martyrs. The result was that the Irish question beeame a football in the British Parliament, kicked from one side of the House to the otherâ€"not for the beneâ€" fit of Ireland, but for the benefit of the politicians who wished to use the Irish vote for the furtherance of their own interests A Comparisonâ€" As full of deceit as the German man is ; he is but an infant in arms man. As much as the German hates Great Britain; as much as the German deâ€" sires to see the downfall of Great Britain as a world power; as much as the German plots and plans and longs for Der Tagâ€"that he may cripple Great Britain :â€"his longings, and plottings and plannings, and hatred is as mere childs play as compared to the vicious, cruel, deceitful longing and hatred "of Great Britain, that fills the heart of the Sinn Fein Irishman. There trample it The Irish Question to Dateâ€" Forty years ago the dis Roman Catholics, were agita that the‘Irish were downtro The English politicians who, in the past, have advocated the cause of Ireland, have done so through their absolute and deplorable ignorance of the nature of an Irish agitator who would fawn on the English legislator through the daytime and burn his house and murder his wife and chidren at night. F Gladstone, by his shillyâ€"shally stand, laid the foun situation in Ireland, just the same as he, by his s South Africa, after the ifrst war, laid the foundation â€" South African war which eventually cost Great Britain and thousands of lives. Ulstermen have determined to stand on their rights and fight for their rights as British subjects ;because they know that an Independent Irish Government would make of them slaves and force them to leave their homes and migrate to other countries. English Political Ignorance Ulster‘s Positionâ€"and Knowledgeâ€" : Why have Ulstermen fought strenuously, consistently and without ceasâ€" ing, against the Independence of Irelandâ€":â€"Because Ulstermen know the deceitful, cruel and murderous intents that lie at the bottom of the whole scheme to secure control ofâ€"Ireland and ultimately to use it as a thorn in the side of Great Britain. Then the time came when the football kicked it and Asquith, by the forming of a Members, several years ago, held himself~ duct in the Great Warâ€"caused his anwnfal It were better that Ireland were sunk beneath the sea than that such a condition of affairs should be allowed to come about. Any man who has watched the progress of treatment of the Irish question for the past fi there is nothing in this world that the Britns} men of a certain type, that would satisfy them He is now trying to revive the Irish football so that he may again kick himself into popularity, or a semblance Of Popularity. Englishmen are slowly waking up to the fact that their leniency to the Irish rebels is only building up a band Oof murderers and burglars at their very door, which will be, in time, the means of destroying their own peace and the quietness of their homes. Decent Element Sideste To Compromise, An Errorâ€" In order to keep peace in the famil prominent newspapermen are inclined to Fein; but this would ‘be foolishness in t} man compromise with a murderer who d well might a man compromise with a bu: goods. way for out The O‘Connors, Redmonds and other prominent Irishmen have practically disappeared out of the conflict, as these highminded men would not stand for the murderous program of the Sinn Feiners, and as the strength of the murderers rapidly developed the strength of real, true Irishmen dwindled; so that now scarcely a voice of any real ITishMan is raised in defence of the conduct of the Sinn Fein element.
