(Received January 31, 7.15 p.m.) ' LONDON, January 30. Sir Edward Carson, speaking at Torquay, resented the action of the radical Press and others in condemning reprisals, yet ignoring the crimes provoking these. When he read of an old college friend being, bayoneted and buried alive, and simultaneously English statesmen drawing attention to thereprisals, he considered that the lowest possible degradation of political life. Sir Edward Clarson added: “Let them relinquish the murders and we will relinquish the reprisals.” The day would come when Ireland would crawl to Britain to restore hen- to the United Kingdom. Sir Edward Carson continued: “If the souith and west of Ireland said to Ulster, ‘We’ must run our own island and live together; we will no longer preach hatred of England, but co-op-erate with you and the rest of the Empire,’ then I undertake we will accept the offer and shake hands for the sake of England, Ireland and Empire.” BOMB OUTRAGE IN CORK HOME FOR INCURABLES.
