15572Has this fact arrested the attention of Gladstonians?
15572How is Home Rule to be made a reality?
15572How is the modification to be obtained?

15572If their acquiescence was a mere pretence, what trust can we place in the assertion that they accept the arrangement of 1893?

15277How, one may well ask, are we to itemise the retail iniquities of a system of government which is itself a wholesale iniquity?
15277If we were the higher race why did we not put them out?

15277That I am a person I know; but what is a person?
15277That Ireland is a nation I know; but what is a nation?
15277That is your advice?
15277The_ post hoc_ may be taken as established; was it a_ propter hoc_?
15277Very well, people say, what are you going to do with Home Rule when you get it?
15277Was the Union the cause as well as the antecedent of this decay?
15277What are the English going to do with Home Rule when they get it?

15277What other interpretation is possible?
15277What sort of a mind, then, is the English mind?
15277What then are the conditions of success?
15277What will German or Japanese or American politics be like in 1920?

15277You are certainly in love; suppose you were suddenly asked"to state the case"for love?
15277You are probably civilised; suppose you were suddenly asked"to state the case for civilisation"?
20016How will you do that?
20016If Ireland can prosper so well without Home Rule,so runs this line of reasoning,"why give her Home Rule at all?"
20016Were there no black centuries before 1800? 20016 You talk about the tendency to unity,"he would say,"but have we not here a clear instance of division?"
20016***** What has produced this great change in the situation since 1893?
20016***** What, then, emerges from this survey?
20016But what about her home trade?
20016But what about their remuneration?
20016But what could be more dangerous to a city like Belfast than a no- rent campaign under the guidance of English lawyers?
20016But what of Rome itself?
20016But who can doubt that it would also introduce a new element of civil power into the schools of Ireland?
20016Can any sensible man believe that there is no favour here?"
20016Could any reasonable man call that a final solution of the problem of government in a country where four- fifths of the people were Catholics?
20016Could there be a more extravagant way of governing a country?
20016Do those who reason thus ever reflect how it is that the English Catholics are often among the most formidable opponents of the Home Rule cause?
20016Does he really contend that Ireland is incapable of receiving the same liberties as we are granting to India?
20016For can we doubt that the alchemy of liberty will here, too, even in this sordid realm of finance, repeat its ancient power?
20016For instance, should the vote for Irish Constabulary be regarded as a local or Imperial charge?
20016For what would he discover?
20016HOME RULE DIFFICULTIES 77 Rome Rule_ or_ Home Rule?
20016HOME RULE DIFFICULTIES ROME RULE_ or_ HOME RULE?
20016HOME RULE IN HISTORY What is the fact of Irish history vital to our present cause?
20016Had Ireland no grievances?
20016Have we not there in this latest achievement a specimen of State authorities over- ruled by a central power?"
20016How could she get on without England?
20016How did Marlborough and Clive, Chatham and Walpole, do their great world- work with an Irish Parliament behind them?
20016How did she get her Mutiny Bill-- a limited Parliament-- a repeal of Poynings''Law-- a Constitution?
20016How has that miracle been achieved after the terrible internecine struggles of the mid- nineteenth century?
20016How has this system worked?
20016How is it that Hungary has forgotten the hangings and the butcheries of the sixties, and still works within the Austrian Empire?
20016IN OR OUT?
20016If Home Rule is so certain to be ruinous to Empire, how, we may well ask, did these rulers build up the British Empire?
20016Is it impossible that even there the binding and unifying principle of Irish life may begin to work?
20016Is it likely that Rome is so beset with anxiety to drive them across the Channel?
20016Is it not likely that it is Home Rule that will save her in the future?
20016Is it not quite obvious that these are arguments after judgment?
20016Is it possible, in short, that in Ireland alone, of all countries, freedom should mean persecution?
20016Is it, indeed, so certain that"Home Rule"would increase the power of Rome in Ireland?
20016Is not that an instance of unionism as against Home Rule?
20016Is there, indeed, a single instance in human history when the grant of civil liberty has led to the forging of religious chains?
20016It is that record that has driven Ireland into the arms of Rome, and who can wonder?
20016May we not be sure that Home Rule, instead of strengthening this evil tendency, will weaken it?
20016Might he not even, if he were a shrewd man, suspect that that was the very object and aim which his informants had in view?
20016Might not Belfast, in that case, be able not merely to enrich her merchants but to raise the social conditions of her own people?
20016Now, what does this amount to?
20016Or Irish judges, or even Irish poverty?
20016ROME AND HOME RULE What is the moral of all this?
20016That the people who use them are merely seeking excuses for refusing Home Rule altogether and at all seasons?
20016Thus:--_ Quebec_-- Catholics 1,429,000 Protestants 189,000_ Ontario_-- Protestants 1,626,000 Catholics 390,000 How is this problem solved?
20016What about the five of Home Rule?
20016What are the general outlines of this great measure?
20016What did Ireland ever ask that was granted?
20016What did she ever demand that was not refused?
20016What do they show?
20016What do they signify?
20016What does this new prosperity amount to?
20016What evidence could you have more convincing, what witnesses more eloquent?
20016What is the present position in regard to Irish finance?
20016What is to happen if the two Irish Chambers differ?
20016What of the''curse of Cromwell,''the broken''Treaty of Limerick,''and the penal laws?"
20016What then is it?
20016What would happen in that case?
20016What, then, are the lines that should be followed if we are to go forward to that goal?
20016What, then, is the present Parliamentary relationship between Irish Home Rule and the Federal idea?
20016Where is the evidence of the Orangemen in their strongholds meting out similar measure to the Catholics?
20016Why are the English Catholics so often opposed to Home Rule?
20016Why is it that these laws proved intolerable in Ireland, and have yet survived up to the present moment in England?
20016Will the clouds return, or is this improvement to be sure and lasting?
20016Will you give £20,000,000 to the Irish?"
20016[ 11] Are we to say that trust and tolerance are German virtues, unknown to the British people?
20016[ 32] For the governing clauses of that Act see Appendix E.[ 33] May not the Insurance Act do the same?
20016[ 44] What follows from all this?
20016[ 71] The powers of these Legislative Councils are still very limited; but who can doubt that they will increase?
20016[ 74] Why is this?
14518Again, how are we to get a strong centralized administration in the face of a powerful and hostile parliamentary representation?
14518Are the conditions of the connection between England and Ireland, as laid down in the Act of Union, incapable of improvement?
14518Are there any reasons to suppose that the condition of Ireland is such as to render the example of the Colonies applicable?
14518BY CANON MACCOLL Is it not time that the opponents of Home Rule for Ireland should define their position?
14518But how deep does Irish dislike go?
14518But who supports things as they are?
14518But why are the Irish disloyal?
14518But why is that to be flung aside under the odd name of sentimentalism, while pessimist prophesying is to be taken for gospel?
14518But will it persevere?
14518But, it is said, Scotch national sentiment is as strong as Irish, why should not a legislative union be as acceptable to Ireland as to Scotland?
14518Can any impartial man be surprised that such a measure, carried in such a manner, should have proved unsuccessful?
14518Changes are ever taking place in the growth, so to speak, of the several British possessions, but what is the result?
14518Could even Yorkshire or Lancashire be governed permanently in that way?
14518Could the two English parties, differing so profoundly from one another, combine against the third party?
14518Do they mean to go back or forward?
14518Here, again, why should we expect success in the future from a principle that has so failed in the past?
14518How has it affected the current politics of England?
14518How is Ireland to be governed on Parliamentary principles if the voice of her representatives is to be forcibly silenced or disregarded?
14518How long could the Government of India be carried on under such conditions?
14518How long could this go on?
14518I am often asked, What are the best books to read on the Irish question?
14518If it is"absolutely certain that his policy worked gross wrong,"what is the explanation and the defence?
14518Is all authority of course lost when it is not pushed to the extreme?
14518Is it a certain maxim that the fewer causes of discontentment are left by Government the more the subject will be inclined to resist and rebel?"
14518Is it directed against Englishmen, or against an English official system?
14518Is it not time to try some new treatment-- one which has been tried in similar cases, and always with success?
14518Is it true that no case can exist in which it is proper for the Sovereign to accede to the desires of his discontented subjects?
14518Is there anything peculiar in this case to make it a rule for itself?
14518Now I do not myself believe these things, but what else can any advocate of Home Rule say in answer to them?
14518Now, how did the Southern whites deal with this state of things?
14518Now, what is the link which fastens each of these possessions to the mother country?
14518Now, what is the nature of the Irish Land Question?
14518Now, what is the remedy of such a state of things?
14518Now, what was the course he took?
14518Our only guide to the probabilities of the future is our experience of the past And what has that been in Ireland?
14518Such efforts have hitherto met with no response; is it too much to hope that it will be otherwise in the year now opening?
14518The Irish members wanted it: what business had an English member to interfere to defeat their wishes, and thwart the Executive?
14518They have now been in office for eighteen months, and what do we behold?
14518Under those circumstances, what was the course taken by the thirteen States?
14518Undoubtedly it is the feeling of nationality; and what is nationality?
14518Was it a tightening of the bonds between Austria and Hungary?
14518What about the Conservative party?
14518What administration ever carried either honesty or centralization to a higher pitch than the Irish administration of Mr. Forster?
14518What are the prospects of its settlement?
14518What could be less successful?
14518What did England do?
14518What did become of them?
14518What did we do?
14518What hope is there of this?
14518What is the position which it now occupies?
14518What justification can be made for this change of front?
14518What then?
14518What was the malign power which made the boons we had conferred shrivel up,"like fairy gifts fading away"?
14518What were the considerations presented to them as supreme supervisors and guardians of the British Empire?
14518What will quiet these panic fears which we entertain of the hostile effect of a conciliatory conduct?
14518What, then, are the conclusions intended to be drawn from the foregoing premises?
14518What, then, was the position of Mr. Gladstone''s Government at the close of the election of 1885?
14518When such a scheme is proposed, can Ireland be left out of it?
14518When the Bill was introduced the question at once arose-- Should Ireland be included?
14518Where is their Bill?
14518Where was it to stop?
14518Why do we find it in a Parliament of which the constitution and the environment were alike intolerable?
14518Why should the future be different?
14518Why, it may be asked, should Lord Salisbury''s Government burn its fingers over Ireland, as so many governments have burnt their fingers before?
14518Will the operation do more harm to his constitution than the slow corrosions of a disorder grown inveterate?
14518Will the reasons and forces described above bring us to Home Rule?
14518Yet what has been the result?
14518[ 67] The question arises, What is the magnetic influence which induces communities of men to combine together in federal unions?
14518and if so, when, how, and why?
14518when will this speculating against fact and reason end?
15450And even if we suppose the Irish Legislature and Executive to confine themselves within the letter of the Act, are the checks of any real value?
15450And if raised in driblets, on what will it be spent?
15450And if they could, what sort of a residuum of a United Kingdom government would be left over?
15450Are electors not responsible to Him for the use they make of their votes?
15450Are the forces to be controlled from England, and what is this but a counter revolution?
15450Are we deliberately to take a step which will almost certainly involve us in a similar dilemma?
15450Are we prepared to see four( or, if Wales be added, five) legislatures, and four( or five) executives, in these islands?
15450Are you now going to place a legislative weapon in her hand whereby she will be able to dominate Protestants also?
15450At what rate could an Irish government raise the money?
15450But Ulstermen ask, What is industrial prosperity without freedom?
15450But how would Protestants fare?
15450But if the civil power in Ireland does not call in the military force, how can the latter be used to enforce the law?
15450But what layman takes the slightest interest in these paper supremacies?
15450But what of the Church of Ireland under Home Rule?
15450But would she be secure under Home Rule?
15450But, could an Irish Government Guaranteed Railway Stock be issued at 4 per cent.?
15450Can Great Britain divest herself of a religious responsibility in dealing with Home Rule?
15450Can it be expected that this attempt, even if it succeeds, will produce better results for land purchase than the pitiable failure of the Act of 1909?
15450Can this be done with impunity?
15450Could the Irish Government borrow £50,000,000, and at what rate?
15450Does any one suppose that a million of the most earnest Protestants in the world are going to submit to such an arrangement?
15450Does not the balance of credit when the comparison is made with the Nationalists come on the side of Ulster?
15450Does this fact suggest nothing?
15450For what are the main constitutional dangers of creating rival Parliaments in the same State?
15450Has she ever said that she would practise toleration towards Protestants when she was in power?
15450Hedged in by British bayonets the Lord Lieutenant may exercise his veto, but upon whose advice will he do it?
15450How has he been met?
15450How is it that the line of demarcation in Irish politics almost exactly coincides with the line of demarcation in religion?
15450If they sow to the wind, must they not reap the whirlwind?
15450If this is not progression-- and progression under the Legislative Union-- to what can the predicate be more truthfully applied?
15450In what sense are any of these conditions likely to be true of, let us say, an Irish landlord under this Home Rule Bill?
15450Is federation consistent with the predominance of one state, England, in wealth and population?
15450Is it conceivable that all this can he accomplished if the Union between the countries is rent asunder?
15450Is it extravagant to suppose that the complainant would not gain much by his appeal to CÃ ¦ sar?
15450Is it not certain that less money will be raised in England, for Ireland, after Home Rule?
15450Is the Admiralty prepared to discharge this office in the event of war?
15450Is there not a God in Heaven who will take note of such national procedure?
15450Is this Bill likely to be so framed that its provisions can be adapted unchanged to Scotland, Wales, or England?
15450Must not each unit in a Federation be put as regards financial matters upon a like footing; and, if so, can Ireland bear her share?
15450Neither Englishmen nor Scotsmen would be willing themselves to enter under such a yoke, and why should they ask Irishmen to do so?
15450Once again, it is not unreasonable to ask-- How will a Dublin Parliament be able to provide the necessary funds?
15450Should Ireland under Home Rule be represented at Westminster by its members and representative peers?
15450The Union has been no obstacle to their development: why should it have been the barrier to the rest of Ireland?
15450They say, What has religion got to do with Home Rule?
15450What are the prospects of Irish agriculture under Home Rule?
15450What could she do, except, after a futile struggle, to give way?
15450What fiscal resources, and under what conditions are they obtainable?
15450What has been done in the domain of Irish Education, and what still remains to be done?
15450What has been the Irish Nationalist attitude?
15450What indissoluble relationship is there between the two that the expenditure upon the one should be made dependent upon the requirements of the other?
15450What is it?"
15450What then is the_ primâ facie_ case which has induced many Englishmen and Scotchmen to think that it ought to be seriously debated?
15450What will be the effect upon Ireland?
15450What will it avail, when that time comes, that in 1912 the Irish leaders declared themselves content with a subordinate legislature?
15450What, in the name of common sense, has land purchase to do with education?
15450What, then, is the secret of this determination?
15450What, then, would England do?
15450Whenever have they been treated in this manner before by the Government in their schemes of legislation?
15450Where in these instances is our"bigotry"or our hostility to Irish progress?
15450Where is the money to come from?
15450Who is going to be the_ de facto_ ruler of Ireland?"
15450Who is going to exercise supremacy?
15450Why can not similar safeguards be introduced into the Intermediate system?
15450Why should the opposition of aristocratic Tory landlords be thought worthy of respect?
15450Why should we then hesitate to apply to Irish discontent the"freedom"which has proved so sovereign a remedy elsewhere?
15450Why should"bigots"be conciliated; or"deadheads"receive so much consideration?
15450Will a Nationalist Parliament be prepared to find it, and if so, from what source?
15450Will an Irish elected authority agree to pay for these boons, and will they be able to pay?
15450Would independence have been granted to the Transvaal or Orange Free State had their use of it been foreseen?
15450gold_ rentes_ stand at 92, or of the Argentine, which has to borrow at nearly 5 per cent.?
15086Excessive?
15086Inadequate?
15086( 2) Who pays for the machinery of Land Purchase, and what is the security for the money advanced?
150863 of their Terms of Reference-- namely,"What is the Imperial expenditure to which Ireland should equitably contribute?"
15086Am I weakening the case for democracy itself in pressing this view?
15086And what would be the further consequence?
15086Are the phenomena I have reviewed arguments for Home Rule or against Home Rule?
15086Are we to be told now by Unionists that the Union must be maintained in order to maintain this subsidy?
15086But how, on its merits, and apart from the question of taxation, could such an excess be justified?
15086But what light can Estate Duty throw on( for example) the dividends collected at the source from British or foreign securities held by Irish banks?
15086CHAPTER IX IRELAND TO- DAY Why does present- day Ireland need Home Rule?
15086Can anyone wonder that public opinion in Ireland was instinctively against that war?
15086Can we be surprised that they, a rude, backward race, failed under the test where we ourselves, with far less justification, had failed so often?
15086Did Durham advocate Canadian Home Rule because Canada was"so far"?
15086Did the proof of the error in Canada induce Englishmen to question the soundness of the precedent on which the error was based?
15086Do not the conclusions set forth above bear upon them the stamp of common sense?
15086Do they tend to show that Ireland is"fitter"now for Home Rule, or that she manages very well without Home Rule?
15086Does it necessarily follow that Ireland should be given power to construct her own Navy, and raise and control her own troops?
15086Does not she become a convex mirror, in which, swollen to unnatural proportions, the mistakes of two centuries are reflected?
15086Ethics and honour apart, where was the common sense of the legislative Union?
15086FEDERAL OR COLONIAL HOME RULE?
15086For example, Is the upkeep of the Lord- Lieutenant an Irish or an Imperial charge?
15086Has Ireland anything to gain by separation?
15086Has merit its reward?
15086Has she anything to lose?
15086How are we to deal with it?
15086How could Ireland frame a financial policy?
15086How did this come about?
15086How do they explain away the support for that policy in the Dominions?
15086How do they reconcile them with opposition to Home Rule for Ireland?
15086How exactly do we stand at the present moment?
15086How, on the other hand, stands the argument of Lord Farrer and Mr. Currie?
15086If Ireland is disorderly and retrograde, how can she deserve freedom?
15086If and in so far as the Upper Chamber is elective, should election be direct or indirect?
15086If so, was it to be left as a separate unit, or was it to be amalgamated in a Union with its neighbour, Upper Canada?
15086In what provision of the coming Bill will the difference between Federal Home Rule and Colonial Home Rule arise?
15086Is it a public opinion derived from the vital contact of ideas and interests, and taking shape in a healthy and normal distribution of parties?
15086Is it strange that the Colonies themselves regard such logic, when applied to Ireland, as perverted and absurd?
15086Is it that the British minority, being so very small, is more liable to oppression by the Dutch?
15086Is there any unity of national purpose, transcending party divisions?
15086Is thought free?
15086Morality aside, is that common sense?
15086More pertinent question still, what are the conditions which will inevitably be imposed in exchange?
15086Nevertheless, the problem before us is one of devolution pure and simple, and the question is, how far is devolution to go?
15086Now, how much more will be required?
15086Now, what was the"people"in the minds of the Volunteers?
15086Now, where do we stand?
15086Once admit the principle of restitution, and where are you to stop?
15086Quebec Home Rule or Dominion Home Rule?
15086Should they have used force, even under the threat of Burgoyne''s guns?
15086Strange, is it not, that such a movement should have to emphasize the fact?
15086Take the Imperial argument, shaken to its foundations by subsequent events, from the case he stated in 1893, and what remains?
15086To be held by Lord- Lieutenant To be held by Lord- Lieutenant,( acting normally on the advice_ acting on advice of Irish of Irish Cabinet?
15086Two further questions remain to be considered:( 1) Can we assume that in the future purchase will proceed smoothly?
15086Was French or Lower Canada, with its small minority of British, to be given representative Government at all?
15086Was it because Ireland, unlike Canada, was"so near"?
15086Was it respectable for armed men to dictate to a Parliament, however just their cause?
15086Was it to be the policy of the Duke of Wellington or of the Earl of Durham, of Fitzgibbon or the Volunteers?
15086Were they to trust or suspect, to admit or to exclude from full political rights, the new- comers?
15086What are the objections to Irish control over Purchase, with its corollary, Irish payment of the running costs of Purchase?
15086What are the objections to giving Ireland, like the Isle of Man and the Channel Islands, control over her own Customs?
15086What are the objections?
15086What are to be the relations between the subordinate Irish Parliament and Government, and the Imperial Parliament and Government?
15086What do these terms really mean?
15086What form should that contribution eventually take?
15086What has taken its place?
15086What is the really practical significance of Ireland''s proximity to England?
15086What is the ruling power within Ireland?
15086What is the train of reasoning in this strange specimen of political argument?
15086What is to be the framework of Home Rule?
15086What prevented unity?
15086What question?
15086What rational or scientific limit can be set to it?
15086What was its corollary?

15086What was the ultimate cause of this glaring divergency?
15086What would Mr. Arthur Balfour himself have prophesied with certainty in the case of any other country but Ireland?
15086What would have happened in any Colony?
15086What would one expect to happen?
15086What, in the Colonies, Ireland, and everywhere else, is the deep spiritual impulse behind the desire for Home Rule?
15086Where are the dangers and difficulties of exclusion?
15086Where is our common sense?
15086Where is the crux of the problem?
15086Where is the wisdom in selecting direct taxation as peculiarly suitable to Irish control?
15086Whichever course was taken, what was to be the relation between the Home Government and Canada?
15086Why foster a spirit of undying enmity among a people disposed to dwell together in harmony?
15086Why less urgent?
15086Why subject the Colony to the dissensions of party?
15086Why?
15086Will it be good for Ireland?
15086Will they profit by it?
15086Would Mr. Chamberlain recast his argument now?
15086Would it have been possible to design a system better calculated to embitter, impoverish, and demoralize a valuable portion of the Empire?
15086Would she naturally be inclined to increase direct taxation?
15086[ 4] Why is this?
15086[ 53] But why in the world should the British party pendulum determine an important Irish matter like this?
29710''An''how''ll I do that?'' 29710 ''But can ye handle it?''
29710''Ha, Ha,''says the banker,''is it there ye are? 29710 ''Was it you kilt the jackdaw?''

29710Do n''t you think the Papists would be tolerant?
29710Give instances of what they can do, say you? 29710 Have you noticed how the Irish people are gulled?"
29710How do we know we''ll be employed for six years, once the Irish leaders get matters in their own hands? 29710 How far away is that?"
29710How is it that the Catholic population, as a rule, are merely the hewers of wood and drawers of water? 29710 How long were you in Ireland before you changed your mind?"
29710How many people moved to Gilford out of the two counties?
29710How would I know, is it? 29710 I suppose you ask me seriously?
29710If Mr. Gladstone wished to go to war to- morrow, is he not at the mercy of the Irish Nationalist party? 29710 Is not this true?"
29710Is this extraordinary difference the result of British rule?
29710Loyal to what?

29710What good would it do me to have men imprisoned?
29710What will happen if we do not get the Bill? 29710 What will ye do wid it when ye''ve got it?"
29710What would I do to settle the Irish question? 29710 What would happen if he expressed his loyalty?"
29710What''s the next place to this?
29710What''s the use of showing your teeth when you ca n''t bite?

29710A fluent politician said,"Why are all the Protestants Unionists?
29710A heaven- born statesman?

29710And Father Humphreys( if he knew the words) might truly say_ Cui bono_?
29710And are not these men in the hands of the priests?
29710And have you noticed the everlastingly outstretched hands which meet you at every corner?
29710And if such a thing be done in the green tree what will be done in the dry?
29710And if the premonitory symptoms be thus severe, how shall we doctor the disease itself?
29710And once an Irish Parliament is granted, how will he resist the demand for Irish independence, for the Irish Republic affiliated with America?
29710And so they seem to forget the days when_ they_ were felons?
29710And that''s the way of it, d''ye mind me?''"
29710And the venal English press which conceals the fact, what shall be said of it?
29710And what was the remark made by that follower of Jesus Christ?
29710And what would I say when his mother turned round and said,''Ye have the land, have n''t ye, William?''
29710And when I saw the lad''s dead face, what would I think?

29710And who shall estimate the heart''s pure feelings?
29710And whom have Government found their bitterest enemies?
29710And why do not the clergy undeceive them?
29710And why not?
29710And why?
29710And why?
29710And yet if mere numbers must decide, if the counting of heads is to make things right or wrong, why not let the people decide these distinctions?
29710Another Catholic living near, said:"''How would Home Rule work?''
29710Another person standing by said,"What happened at Galbally, near Tipperary?
29710Answer me this:--Did you, did anybody, ever know Gladstone to give a straightforward answer to any one question?
29710Are Englishmen acquainted with the history of Papal Rome?
29710Are Englishmen unacquainted with the traditional hatred of the Irish malcontents?
29710Are Englishmen willing to be longer fooled by a Government of nincompoops?
29710Are these men all infatuated?
29710Are these men not hand and glove with the clerical party, which hates England as heretic and excommunicate?
29710Are these people fit to govern themselves?
29710Are they all liars?

29710Are they in a position to know the facts?
29710Are they men to be trusted with the affairs of State?
29710Are they not our own kith and kin?
29710Are we such dastards as to give up that for which they shed their blood?
29710Are we to put our necks under the heels of a Parliament worked by Bishop Walsh of Dublin?
29710Are we to stand quietly aside and see the destinies of decent people entrusted to the leaders of a movement which owes its success to such supporters?
29710Are you any nearer success now than ever you were?
29710Are you going to put into the hands of your enemies the power to ruin you merely by biding their time?"

29710Bull concludes to let the dunghill folks, powerful lazy beggars they seem, come top- sawyer over the fellows that built a place like this, eh?"

29710But how many are there?
29710But how shall we decide the scope and character of such a final Land Bill?
29710But how were the people to be taught the management of large boats, and the kind of nets that were used?
29710But is n''t that nonsense, says I?
29710But is their teaching designed or calculated to suit England?
29710But it may be objected-- If Irishmen have no respect for their members, why did they elect them?
29710But one of''em cocks up his nose, an''he says,''We''re like a character in the Bible, are we?

29710But which of the Nationalist members could do that?
29710But whin they shot Tim, to kape his mouth shut, why would n''t they shoot the woman?"
29710But whin ye come to look into it, why would n''t we be justified in usin''dynamite?
29710But who tells them this?

29710But with steady rule one day, and vacillation, wobbling, and surrender the next, what can you expect?
29710But would n''t the poor man have to leave it, or die of starvation?
29710But would you have Ireland alone to reckon with?
29710By the confession of his own followers, all his previous legislation for Ireland has been a failure, for if it be not so, why the present measure?
29710Ca n''t you get Gilbert to do a Home Rule opera comique?
29710Can all the English magistrates spell''adjourned''?
29710Can anybody in England"go one better"than this?
29710Can anybody say anything against such sentiments?

29710Can anything be more unreasonable or more unlikely?
29710Can not Englishmen reckon up the Home Rule agitation from such facts as these, the accuracy of which is easily ascertainable by anybody?
29710Can not Gladstonians read the records?
29710Can not the English people see through these nimble twisters and time- servers, this crowd of lay Vicars of Bray?"
29710Can not the English see that it is urged by a set of thieves and traitors?
29710Can not they see that brains and property are everywhere against it?
29710Can the English Gladstonians get away from the suggestiveness of this fact?
29710Can they not diagnose the progress of the disease?
29710Can they point out a single instance in which we have the upper hand, or state anything in which we as Protestants have any advantage whatever?
29710Can we ate it, can we dhrink it, can we shmoke it?
29710Can you depend on the loyalty of the Catholic priesthood?
29710Chamberlain showed him up, but why stop at one quotation?
29710Could anybody be more stupid, more totally incapable of giving a valid reason for his action than your vaunted British workman?
29710Could anything be more unreasonable?

29710He remonstrates, and they say,''What business have you here?

29710If we can thrive, why ca n''t they thrive?
29710If we''re not to govern the counthry in every way that_ we_ think best, why on earth would we want a Parlimint at all?
29710If ye look properly at the thing, why would n''t we use dynamite?
29710In what way?
29710Ingenious, is n''t it?
29710Is England governed by Englishmen?
29710Is Irish sentiment to be again disappointed for a paltry six thousand pounds?
29710Is it friendly to England?
29710Is it not sweeter also than honey or the honeycomb?
29710Is it sufficiently symptomatic?
29710Is it to assist England?
29710Is n''t that true?
29710Is not England for the Irish, America, Australia, New Zealand?
29710Is not soap an enemy to the faith?
29710Is not the goodwill of the foinest pisintry in the wuruld more to be desired than much fine gold?
29710Is not the time for soft speaking nearly over?
29710Is not the whole system of Popery based on intolerance, on infallibility, on strict exclusiveness?
29710Is not this big print enough?
29710Is that new to you?
29710Is that thrue, now?
29710Is the Sisyphean stone of Home Rule, so laboriously rolled uphill, to again roll down, crushing in its fall the faithful rollers?
29710Is the as- you- were assertion an argument?
29710Is the hope that the ignorant peasantry of Ireland will return"the better class of men,"who"do not believe in Home Rule"an argument?
29710Is their want of energy due to breed, to religion, or to both?
29710Is there any class or trading interest which would be by working men entrusted with such enormous power?
29710Is there no antidote to this poison?
29710Is there no means of enlightenment available?
29710Is this opinion not well worth consideration?
29710Is this the class of men you wish to set over us as governors?"
29710It is?
29710Look at Gladstone, have ye anybody to come up to him?
29710Loyalty to England?
29710Loyalty?
29710More distress?
29710Morley?"
29710Mr. Gladstone?
29710No difference there, their object is one and the same, and when the priests and the farmers unite, who can compel them to pay up?
29710No doubt Lord Houghton''s first impulse would be to exclaim,"Then why on earth do n''t you use your advantages?
29710No?
29710Now, how is that?
29710Now, were not the Irish loyal when the English people disloyally favoured their Oliver Cromwell and their William the Third?"
29710On the other hand, does not appetite grow with what it feeds on?
29710Or be hung in a blaze with a hook in your backs, Till you all melt away like a cake of bees''-wax?
29710Otherwise, why ask for a Parliament?
29710Ought not the Irish people to be masters of Ireland?
29710Ought such people to have the franchise?
29710Patriots are they?
29710Perhaps ye have Gladstonian life- assurance offices in England?
29710Presently you will see the bearing of all this on your question-- Why do not the best Catholics come forward and speak against Home Rule?
29710Query-- if a given number of murders were required to bring about Home Rule, how many murders will be required to effect complete separation?
29710RENTS, the Ponsonby, 50; rack renting, 100; quite low enough, 143; what rack rent means, 190; land must be worth something, 228; to whom is rent due?
29710REPUBLIC, An Irish, 162; could we reconquer?
29710Saith not the wisest of men that a good report maketh the bones fat?
29710See that hill there?
29710Shall the sons be unworthy of the sires?
29710Shall we bow down to Popery?
29710Shall we truckle to Rome, shall we become slaves to Popish knaves, shall we become subservient to priestcraft and lying and roguery and trickery?
29710Since the bill became public and has been the subject of popular discussion, I brought out the Ballinrobe and Claremorris Railway-- with what result?
29710Sind_ me_ to Parlimint, till I get within whisperin''distance of Misther Gladstone-- within whisperin''distance, d''ye mind me?
29710So I got to know this, an''iver afther, whin they would be sayin''to me,"''Which is the best hotel in Ennis?''
29710Suppose we want £ 500 for some improvement, who will lend us the money?
29710Suppose you gave Ireland Home Rule, and the Church turned rusty?
29710Supposed they groaned under conscription like France and Germany, what then?
29710Sure''tis the English Government, an''what would it be else?
29710Sure, how would we do as we liked, wid an army of them fellows agin us?
29710Sure, the counthry wo n''t be able to do widout loans, an''who''ll lind ye money wid an Irish Parlimint?"
29710Surely the Gladstonian English admit that?
29710TOLERATION, would Catholics show?
29710That''s the inscription, and what does it mean?
29710The British Grenadiers would then come in, and where would be the Union of Hearts?
29710The Chairman wanted to know why the Yankees did not call the ugly brutes after Lord Salisbury and Colonel Saunderson?
29710The English Parliament, hoping to win over the farmers, who are the strength of Ireland, has made one concession after another, with what result?
29710The brutal Saxon with his ding- dong persistency may be making money, but how about his future interests?
29710The colleagues whom he had assorted at the same boards, stared at each other, and were obliged to ask,''Sir, your name?''
29710The helmsman is under their orders-- will he be heaved overboard before he has done his work?
29710The injustice of an Irish rent largely depends on the question, To whom is it due?
29710The most commonplace observation evokes a"D''ye see that, now?"
29710The murtherin'', sweatin''landlords that''ll grind the very soul out of ye-- who are they?
29710The only question was, would they clear out peaceably, or would it be necessary to call in the aid of the Irish Army of Independence?
29710The pledges of Dillon and Davitt-- what are they worth?
29710The small farmers thinks they''ll have the land for nothin'', but what about the labourers?
29710The_ Independent_ says,''When Ireland next fights England she will not fight alone?''
29710Their politics?
29710Then looking at the gambler''s black and polished feet, he said:--"Tell me, now, honey, is it Day an''Martin''s ye use?"
29710Then what hope is there of friendship in a Home Rule Bill which will infinitely increase the number of points of dispute?
29710Then why are the Limerick Catholics loyal?
29710Then why not take their advice?
29710Then why send them to Parliament, say you?
29710Then, whatever debts Ireland might incur England would have to pay, should Ireland repudiate them?
29710Then, why rouse more enmity?
29710There was iron at Ballyshannon, but what was the good?
29710These fellows ca n''t agree for five minutes together, and their principal subject of quarrel is-- Who shall be master?
29710They asked what would they do else, and what did he take them for?
29710They bate his servants next, an''said Will ye join?
29710They fought the thing out; but where was the good?
29710They have sent out lecturers and instructors, they have planted patches and grown the stuff, and shown the pecuniary results, and with what effect?
29710They never had no meetin''s; why?
29710They sent him terrible letthers wid skulls an''guns, an''coffins, an''they said Will ye join?
29710They smashed ivery pane o''glass in his house, an''they said Will ye join?
29710They talk about Home Rule, but what good will that do us?
29710They threw explosives into the house, an''said Will ye join?
29710They turn round angrily and say,''Was n''t it good enough for my father, an''was n''t he a betther man than ayther me or you?''
29710They will leave the land, I suppose?
29710This promises well for the success of the Home Rule Bill; but why is the thing"impossible"?
29710To how many of them would Gladstone lend a sovereign?
29710To shoot sparrows?
29710Turning to me, the bearded man said,"Did ye ever hear the pome about Saint Patrick''s birthday?"
29710Vote against him?
29710Was n''t I born among yez?
29710Was n''t I rared among yez?
29710Was n''t that hard lines?
29710Was not the disestablishment of the Church to remove all cause of discontent?
29710Was there ever a free and prosperous country where the Roman Catholic religion was predominant?"
29710We may have iron, but what''s the good when we have no coal to smelt it?
29710Well,''he says,''who was he?''
29710What Englishman would have done as much for his grandmother?
29710What are Englishmen going to do?
29710What are they to- day?
29710What are ye standin''there for?

29710What can do a man good who tries to get his dinner by standing about and saying how hungry he is?
29710What can the poor folks do?
29710What can you say for them after that?"
29710What could they do?

29710What could we do?
29710What d''ye take me for?
29710What did Parnell say?

29710What do you think?"

29710What right, moral or legal, have these Colquhouns, these Galbraiths, these Andersons, to Irish soil?
29710What shall I do if Home Rule becomes law?

29710With matters in the hands of an Irish Parliament, who would have the pull in weight of influence, John Bull or the priests?
29710With your Home Rule Bills, your Irish Church Bills, your successive Land Bills, how much have you done?
29710Wo n''t the owner be a landlord?
29710Would English navvies work for that?

29710You have told them?
29710You see my point?
29710You think so?
29710You think that the people may be fairly expected to return the same class of men?
