HOME RULE
SPEECHES BY UNIONISTS. REPLY TO MR REDMOND. Press Association—By Telegraph—Copyright. LONDON, October''2. (Received Oct. 2, at 10.20 p.m.) Viscount Northland is second in command of the Tyrone regiment of the Ulster army.
Sir E. Carson, speaking at Dungannon, said that until a principle was enunciated in consonance with the Ulster covenant a conference was impossible, Mr Redmond had offered to get him a conference if he would adopt the principle of Home Rule, but he (Sir E. Carson) thanked him for nothing. If disaster followed it would rend the United Kingdom and the oversea dominions into two parties, struggling in a fratricidal fight when they should be showing a united front to the nations.
Mr F. Smith, speaking at Dungannon, said they regarded the application of Home Rule to any part of Ireland as a disaster, but they would prevent by force of arms its application to the homogeneous counties of Ulster.-
