HOME RULE BILL.
PRESS CRITICISMS
(Received February 13, 3.30 p.m.) LONDON, February 13. The Irish Press is generally hostile and sarcastic in commenting on the Home Rule proposals mentioned in the King's speech. "Freeman's Journal" says: The proposals are a mockery to the public intelligence, and merely another contribution to Irish anarchy. The "Independent" is confidant that Ireland will not give the scheme a moment's consideration. The "Irish Times" says the Government clearly intends to rush- the Bill through, though it has not yet consulted any warty interest in Ireland.
