HOME RULE.
•Mr Austen Chamberlain, speaking at Bristol, referring to Home Rule, said everybody agreed that Ireland was happior materially than she had been at any time. Why should tho good work be interrupted? Mr Campbell, M.P., speaking at Hounslow, said the Irish enjoyed tho same rights and privileges as the English. Their real grievances had been swept away by the Land Acts, and they wero now more self-reliant and independent than before. They did not J want Homo Kulo. i Sir Rufus Isaacs, Attorney-General, presiding at a Home Rulo demonstration at Hoading, denied Mr Bonar 1 Law's assertion that the Government majority had been obtained on issues other than Home Rule. Mr Redmond said Irishmen . would never bo bribed by doles or coerced by imprisonment and .oppression. The Nationalists had 'an indestructible nationality, and an historical national right to Home Rule. Mr Bonar Law was most ungrateful in complaining of the influence of tho Irish vote in Britnin, because he owed his first election in Glasgow to instructions issued by the United Irish Xeaguo.
