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?
14374Are we to go on for ever upon this path? 14374 Finally, what would be the effect of a breakdown at the front?
14374Is it that he wanted to be cheered? 14374 Is that the proposal?
14374Shall we not be denounced for making them?
14374What about the Army? 14374 What is it that stands in the way of Ireland taking her place as a self- governing part of this Empire?
14374What will be the certain effect of a breakdown? 14374 What will be the effect in America?
14374Which regiment?
14374Why does the right honourable gentleman opposite not meet us half way? 14374 Why should they shoot the people in Dublin when they let the Ulstermen do what they like?"
14374Will you promise,said Parnell,"that you will write out what you are going to say, and show it to me, and say that and no more?"
14374''What is it?
14374Are we never to be allowed to have peace in our country?"
14374Are we to go back into the region of perpetual and violent agitation in order to get the reforms we need?
14374Are you still determined to stand out?"
14374But as one of our rank and file said in my ear,"If we had not given the vote we did, where would be all this talk of harmony?
14374But how does that help us?
14374But if there is no settlement, do you imagine the Treasury will do anything to help us?
14374But the Ulster Unionists-- what sacrifice had they made?
14374But was there everywhere a desire to do justice to what Ireland could give-- and was willing to give?
14374Colloquy began:"Is n''t it a hard thing that you would n''t let us speak?"
14374Could he by waiting his time have made a better bargain?
14374Could we hope to win the war if America dropped out?
14374Did the agreement mean that none of the six excluded counties could be brought under a Dublin Parliament without an Act of Parliament?
14374Do the counties of Down and Antrim and Londonderry, for instance, ask to be excepted from the scope of this Bill?
14374Do they ask for a parliament of their own, or do they wish to remain here?
14374Do you think I ought to?"
14374Does anyone suppose that Sir Edward Carson had no voice in the staffing of the Ulster Division?
14374Efficient for what?
14374How are we to get back?
14374How could he hope for an Ulster united to Ireland, if Ulster were divided from Ireland on the war?
14374How could they accomplish this?
14374How shall we write his own?
14374How was the Irish recruiting problem to be dealt with?
14374How, men asked, even if a bargain could be made with Constitutional Nationalists, should that covenant be carried into effect?
14374I agree with every word he said, but what is the difficulty?
14374I ask him whether the circumstances of the time do not warrant that such an attempt should be made?
14374I ask, do they claim separate treatment for themselves?
14374If you do, what will be the disastrous consequences not only to Ulster, but to this country and the Empire?
14374In a speech delivered in Belfast, at the opening of a new drill hall, he asked and answered the question,"Why are we drilling?"
14374In other words, was the exclusion permanent until Parliament should otherwise determine?
14374Is it worthy of Ulster''s Imperial loyalty?
14374Is that the demand?"
14374Is there a man in this room who can contemplate without horror the immediate future of Ireland if this Convention fails?
14374Is there an Englishman representing any party who does not yearn for a better future between Ireland and Great Britain?
14374May I say something more than that?
14374On the other hand, what sacrifices had been made by the Southern Unionists?
14374She found her cook up in arms:"Is it me boil the kettle for Englishmen coming in to shoot down Irishmen?"
14374Sir Edward Carson shot the question at him:"Will you agree to it?"
14374The Ulsterman turned:"Not let you speak?
14374The listeners would applaud, but after the meeting one and another would come up privately and say:"Are you sure now they are n''t fooling us again?"
14374There was passionate resentment against the Government, and the question was asked, For what were their men dying?
14374Was Ireland only to be let drift?
14374Was the Army to be used against all movements except those under the patronage of the Tory party?
14374What did Mr. Barrie say in his formal document?
14374What is safety for the Empire?
14374What is safety for us?
14374What remained then, if Ulster would not accept the offer?
14374What would be the effect throughout the Empire?
14374Where''s John Redmond?"
14374Who can say that is an exaggeration?
14374Who could suppose that the formation of combatant forces would remain a monopoly of any party?
14374Who should have authority over Volunteers in a State?
14374Who were the enemy, and what the weapon?
14374Why can not there be a settlement?
14374Why can not we do it?
14374Why must it be that, when British soldiers and Irish soldiers are suffering and dying side by side, this eternal old quarrel should go on?....
14374Why relieve him of one- third of his task?"
14374With this disposition in England itself, what was likely to be the feeling in Ireland?
14374Would he attempt to change the whole direction of a nation''s feeling?
14374Yes, but how was it attained?
14374Yet, what use are might- have- beens?
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?''
29710An Orangeman, and a black Protestant, I fear?
29710An''can ye tell me why the farmers should have all the land an''not the labourers? 29710 An''d''ye think Home Rule will enable ye to do betther?
29710An''how would ye know, at all, at all?
29710An''some of the little houldhers says,''Pat,''says they,''what''ll we do wid the money whin we''ve no taxes to pay?'' 29710 An''why not?"
29710An''why so?
29710An''why would n''t we remimber King William? 29710 And how heavy is the average fish?"
29710And was the landlord shot?
29710Appointment?
29710Arrah, what d''ye mane by trimmin''s?
29710But how about the pledges, the solemn and reiterated pledges, of Michael Davitt and the rest?
29710But if England does not please us, can we not cut the cable? 29710 But if the best Catholics are opposed to Home Rule, why do n''t they say so publicly?"
29710But tell me something-- How is it that the English people are deceived by that arch- professor of ca nt? 29710 Did ye ever know a man who was contint wid a good bargain when he has a prospect of a better bargain still?"
29710Did ye hear of the Home Rule Bill? 29710 Did ye injy the matein?"
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?
29710Meeting begun yet?
29710Mon alive, d''ye tell me that any mon said sic a fuleish speech? 29710 Now what could ye do with the like iv_ him_?"
29710Pardon me, Sir, but are you English?
29710Shall we go back to Henry II.? 29710 Studying fortification?"
29710That is, a penny a pound?
29710The Land League? 29710 The very first thing we do,"said to me an influential Dubliner I met here,"is to double the harbour dues; you ca n''t prevent that, I suppose?
29710Thin why do n''t ye lave it?
29710What are the inequalities of England and Ireland? 29710 What are they worth?"
29710What are those implements?
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?
29710What, then, are my opinions, expressed in a concise form? 29710 Where do you catch them?"
29710Where is the inequality? 29710 Who d''ye mane, wid yer dhrivin''to the boats?"
29710Why are they bankrupt? 29710 Why do n''t they pay that half?

29710_ Why_ are they well off, you ask? 29710 ''A man may not be loyal and yet not be a traitor, for how can a man be a traitor to a foreign government?'' 29710 ''An''would I be settin''meself up to be bettherin''his larnin''?'' 29710 ''And would n''t that be only half the load for the poor baste?'' 29710 ''But suppose, instead of Finn- water it was purgatory I was in, and the priest said,I''ll pull ye out for five pounds,"what about him?''
29710''Is it yerself would insinse me into the rudiments o''polite larnin''?''
29710''Michael Hegarty,''says I,''where did ye scour up yer thievin''set o''rag- heaps?''
29710''Shall we from the Union sever?
29710''Sure,''says Barney,''ye would n''t have a cock- eyed load on the baste, all swingin''on one side, like a pig wid one ear, would ye?''
29710''Tis Englishmen I like, bedad it is; the grandest, foinest, greatest counthry in the wuruld, begorra it is-- an''why not?"
29710''What civil rights are they deprived of?''
29710''What could I do?''

2971028.--Could we Reconquer Ireland?
297105.--HAS MR. MORLEY LIED?
297105.--Has Mr. Morley Lied?
29710A fluent politician said,"Why are all the Protestants Unionists?
29710A heaven- born statesman?
29710A run on the Post Office Savings Bank threatens to clear out every penny of Irish money, and why?
29710About separation?
29710Ah, thin, why did ye die?"

29710Am I to stand rammin''me bargains down yer throats like wagon wheels?
29710An equally intelligent Unionist, who bore a Scottish name, said:--"Does it suit England to throw us overboard?
29710An''could n''t we starve thim out?
29710An''could ye say why them murdherin''Land Leaguers in Parliament was n''t hung up, the rampagious ruffians?"

29710An''what about dynamite?
29710An''what d''ye mane by refusing us the right to put on whatever harbour dues we choose?

29710An''what would ye ask for more?"
29710An''where did he die?
29710An''would ye say to thim,''tis Home Rule ye want?
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 where will they get it from?
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 disloyal to England?
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?"
29710Arguments, quotha?
29710Away ye go, me little duck, me daughter, me beauty, me-- bad luck to ye,_ will_ ye go?
29710Beggary, lying, dirt, and laziness invariably accompany priestly rule, and are never seen in Ireland in conjunction with Protestantism?
29710Better price than the pollock?
29710Boldly- printed mottoes in scarlet and white, such as"Quis Separabit?"
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 after that?
29710But do you think I''d trust my property with either of the two Tims?
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 pass the bill and what happens?
29710But they have quite ceased to buy, and for the stipulated three years will pay their rent as usual, and why?
29710But what are the Belfast men doing?
29710But what are they among so many?
29710But what do the Irish think of them?
29710But what is the truth of the matter?
29710But what is the truth?
29710But what of the new Irish Cardinal, Archbishop Logue, of Armagh?
29710But when did Irishmen act on the lines of Englishmen or Scotchmen?
29710But where is the money to come from to purchase land?
29710But where is the strong hand?
29710But where was the great meeting?
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 why curse and blaspheme the landlords for what was in many cases their own deliberate act?"
29710But why curse the landlords for what was their own deliberate act?"
29710But why waste so much time?"
29710But why?
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 anybody tell me that?"
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?
29710Could he get votes of supply without their aid?
29710Could n''t we cut off their provisions?
29710Could not something be done for these deserving men?

29710Did you ever see such magnanimity?
29710Did you not, now?''
29710Did you see the great memorial to the Manchester murderers--''Martyrs''they call them?
29710Do English people know what an Irish Catholic feels when refused absolution?
29710Do I think the idea of''responsibility''is their leading idea?

29710Do n''t you think anybody could see that they are taking advantage of the unsettled state of things to avoid any payment whatever?
29710Do n''t you think that the rents will be reduced until the landlords are used up?
29710Do not the people suit our purpose much better as they are?
29710Do the English Separatists see daylight now?
29710Do the English know what they are now submitting to?
29710Do the English people grasp the present position of landowner and tenant respectively?
29710Do the English people know this?
29710Do the Tuamites deny that"many of the streets are wretchedly built,"and"the Galway road shows how easily the Catholic poor are satisfied?"
29710Do they deny the scenes of persecution I described as having taken place in former days?
29710Do they not know the aspirations of the Catholic clergy, and are they ignorant of their immense influence with the masses?
29710Do they say their prayers to the Grand Old Man?"
29710Do yez iver buy any clothes at all, or do yez beg them?
29710Do you believe that the shooting of a few hundred patriots by the British Grenadiers would further what they call the Union of Hearts?
29710Do you know a greater man than myself?
29710Do you know that the Queenstown Town Commissioners call each other liars, and invite each other to come out and settle it on the landing?
29710Do you not know that the Irish Army of Independence is already being organised?
29710Do you remember Carey, the informer?
29710Do you think such men as Tim Harrington and Tim Healy are fit to be trusted with the spending of 2- 1/2 millions of money per annum?
29710Do you think that a people powerfully influenced, supremely influenced, by the word of a priest are fit to govern themselves?
29710Do you think that reconquest would settle the Irish question?
29710Does anybody know?
29710Does he mean 50,000 Irishmen?
29710Does it look genuine?
29710Does that look honest?
29710Does this fact impress the usefulness of Balfour''s railways?
29710Does this give earnest of final settlement, of unbroken peace and contentment, of eternal fraternity and friendship?
29710Does this look like the fear of civil war?
29710Does this sound like the Union of Hearts?
29710Five weeks only?
29710For if the English Parliament have the power to veto our wishes, where''s the difference?
29710For what are a handful of reasonable men against a crowd of blackguards with big sticks?"
29710For what?
29710For why, beloved brethren?
29710Give it up?
29710Give it up?
29710Go outside the manufacturing towns and what do you see?
29710Had I a sheriff''s order,& c.,& c.,& c.?
29710Have I not a noble soul?
29710Have n''t I done my best?
29710Have n''t I kept my promise?
29710Have n''t we a right to do as_ we_ choose in Ireland?
29710Have they adequate knowledge of the subtlety, the craft, the dissimulation, the foresight of this most wonderful religious system?
29710Have they got any wrinkles?
29710Have they not precisely the same freedom as that enjoyed by England, the freest country in the world?
29710Have they not religious equality, free trade, a free press, and vote by ballot?
29710Have they not the same laws, except where those laws have been relaxed in favour of Ireland?
29710Have we not their example before us?
29710Have ye that, now?"
29710Have you been in Ennis?
29710Have you heard any Irishman speak well of Gladstone?
29710Have you met a decent Home Ruler who trusts the present men?
29710Have you noticed the appalling mendicancy of Ireland?
29710Have you reflected on the''high spirit''of the Irish people?
29710Have you remembered their pride, their repugnance to the Saxon?
29710Have you satisfied Irishmen yet?
29710He notes the stranger, and politely says,"Can I be of any use?
29710He remonstrates, and they say,''What business have you here?
29710He said:--"Have Englishmen forgotten the previous history of the men she is now on the point of entrusting with her future?
29710He said:--"They say the farmer is to get the land-- but what then?
29710His friends simply said,''Ah, now, let the Boy go on wid the conthract; shure, is n''t he the dacent Boy altogether?
29710How are we to begin?
29710How are ye, Union iv Hearts?"
29710How are you going to collect the two or three millions of Ireland''s share in Imperial expenditure without any force at all?
29710How can Englishmen stand such a hollow humbug?
29710How can I do so, when I myself was just as ignorant?
29710How can we launch out into industrial enterprises?
29710How can we settle down to work?
29710How can you expect tolerance from a church the very essence of whose doctrine is intolerance?
29710How did all this come about?
29710How did the Items get into Parliament at all?
29710How does this promise for the peace that is to follow this great measure of"Justice"to Ireland?
29710How does this promise for the working of an Irish Parliament?
29710How far have you succeeded in pacifying Ireland?
29710How far shall I go back, Father Tom?"
29710How is England to learn the precise state of things?
29710How is it that all Protestants are well off, and make no complaint?
29710How is it that most of the leading merchants are Protestants?
29710How is it that their children never run barefoot?
29710How is it that their families are well educated, that their dwellings are clean, and that they pay their way?
29710How is that?
29710How is this?
29710How long are the English people going to stand this Morley- Gladstone management?
29710How long in the country?
29710How many Englishmen would have stood it?
29710How many Irish members can make this their boast?
29710How many of them could get tick in London for a new rig- out?
29710How many people does the Tuam Town Hall hold?
29710How much has your daughter?
29710How much money has your son?
29710How must we class the following case?
29710How will it put a penny in yer pockets, an''what would ye get by it that ye ca n''t get widout it?"
29710How will they be better off?
29710How would I be among the mountains here?
29710How would they ondhersthand at all?
29710How would you collect the interest on the eighteen or twenty millions Ireland now owes?
29710How''s that for tolerance?
29710How?
29710I ask myself where is the English commonsense of which we have heard so much in Germany?
29710I heerd there was talk o''shootin''me from the back iv a ditch; an''that one said,''But av ye missed?''
29710I knew that pinky cheek, I knew that bright blue eye; yet here, in the wilds of Galway who could it be?
29710If Home Rule becomes law those special grants from the Imperial Treasury will be no longer available; and what will be the result?
29710If I go into a whiskey shop on a market day, what do I hear?
29710If Ireland is to be governed from England, if we are to have any interference, what betther off will we be?
29710If Irish Separatists talk like this, what do Irish Unionists say?
29710If the Boys wanted to shoot the Colonel what''s to hinder them?
29710If they flog us now with whips, wo n''t they flog us then with scorpions?"
29710If they object to Home Rule, why did they vote for it?
29710If they pay their rents, where do they get the money?
29710If we can get on without Home Rule, why ca n''t they get on without Home Rule?
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 business have the English here at all domineering over us?
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 they wish for more?
29710What could we do?
29710What d''ye take me for?
29710What did Parnell say?
29710What did the people of East Donegal do, under the guidance of their clergy?
29710What did they do with them?
29710What do I think of Gladstone?
29710What do Mr. Gladstone''s infirm beliefs resemble?
29710What do the Tuamites deny?
29710What do you see there?"
29710What do you see?
29710What do you suppose the men who join it think it means?
29710What do you think?"
29710What does O''Connor mean by the 100,000 Irish arms?
29710What does it mane at all, at all?
29710What does it mane, at all, at all?
29710What does that prove?
29710What does this mean if not civil war?
29710What does this mean?
29710What does this prove?
29710What freedom do the Irish want?
29710What good would the land do me, once I were dead?
29710What have they done?
29710What is going to stand against that?"
29710What is it?
29710What is the effect on England?
29710What is the unhappy man to do?
29710What kind of Government would be possible under six or seven factions?"
29710What makes he here?
29710What more natural?
29710What more natural?
29710What praymium would they want for the life of a Bodyke man that paid his rint to the Colonel?"
29710What reason for believing this?
29710What reduction on that sum would do them any real good?"
29710What right, moral or legal, have these Colquhouns, these Galbraiths, these Andersons, to Irish soil?
29710What shall I do if Home Rule becomes law?
29710What stops them?
29710What then?
29710What tyranny do we now undergo?
29710What were we to do?
29710What will Home Rule do for such people?
29710What will Home Rule do for them?
29710What will the English people say to that?
29710What will the Gladstonian party who prate about Rack- rents say to this?"
29710What would I want wid them?
29710What would be thought of an English constituency which required such a contradiction?
29710What would happen a man who would pay rent on the Bodyke estate?
29710What would happen if the bill became law?
29710What would the English say to such an exhibition?
29710What would the Irish say if Mr. Bull suggested this movement of retrogression?
29710What would the relatives of decent people in England do if they had been submitted to such an insult by a Protestant parson?"

29710What would the sanitary authorities of Birmingham say to that menagerie in a sick room?
29710What would these men do with their power?
29710What would they think of such a resolution in England?
29710What would you expect of a people who believe such rubbish?
29710What''ll the people do at all, at all, that was employed in it?
29710What''ll you bet that he does n''t come over to Dublin and read it in THE HOUSE?"
29710What''s the manin''iv it ye ask?
29710What''s the use of listening to argument when you must in the end vote as Father Pat orders?
29710What''s the use of thinking about anything when Father Pat does it for them?
29710What''s this he called it?
29710What''s to hinder it?
29710When I saw the curiously- selected years, I said, why 1861, 1877, and 1891?
29710When the Archbishop produces no effect, what''s the good of a plain layman''s cursing?
29710When the big farms is all done away who''ll employ the labourers?

29710Where''s the capital to carry on?
29710Where''s the money to come from?
29710Where''s the money to come from?

29710Which do you think would get the best welcome to- morrow-- Balfour or Morley?
29710Which of the Irish Nationalist party would start factories, and what would they make?
29710Which party will they prefer to believe?
29710Whin will ye come back?
