Silverthorn's Family Drug Store "In spite of all attempts on the part of the government and the public to ig nore the facts, the vital matter of the union between Great Britain and Ire land is hurrying to a crisis. The Ul sterman have irrevocably made up their minds not to obey a parliament seated in Dublin, and that they will not be coerced into doing so without resisting by force of arms. The league expects to show the government that it is not only Ulster but every union ist throughout all England who are op posed to this so-called Home Rule." Following is the form of an appeal sent out from the league's headquar ters: "It is quite clear that the men of Ulster are not fighting only for their own liberties. Ulster will be the field on which the privileges of the whole nation itself will be lost or won. "We therefore appeal to all British citizens who sympathize with Ulster. and who value their own freedom, to join this league that lias been formed to support the men of Ulster in the great struggle that lies before them."
