JOHN BULL INDICTED.
Times.—Sydney Sun Special Cables
(Received Oct. 7, 10.30 a.m.) LONDON, Oct. 6. Lord Ashbourne, in a speech to the Gaelic League, said the English tongue w,ould never be the Irish tongue. John Bull was the most insular, narrowminded and impossible person the world had ever seen. Anyone going to the Continent knew what an utterly incapable fool his representative was. He looked for his own language and customs, and complained when he failed to get them. The best way for Ireland to become progressive was for her people to speak their own language.
