I Canada and that he should devote is attention to it. England was quite Able to take care of her own affairs without any assistance from col. Hughes. Hon Robert Rogers said that or.

Kyte went on to say he had recently taken part in a London gathering that did not Nave for its object a peaceful Pur pose. It might be that the govern ment desires to show that it sympathizes with the people of the North of Ireland who Are preparing to resist authority but in his opinion the government should take these things More seriously.

Carson will never use it but this notice that 1000 picked men will be sent to Belfast is a serious matter Lar.
