JURIES WILL NOT CONVICT: league Rules Hand and Grazers Are Terrorized Government De nounced for Xot Applying Powers of Crimes Act. DUBLJK, Jan. 4. (Special.) The Rt. Hon. . "Walter H. Lone. 31. P.. formerly Chief Secretary for Ireland, who has the reputation ot having "kept Ireland in order by his tact and firmness," has written an article In which he says: "Attempts are being made In various quarters to Induce the British public to bellve that the condition of Ireland is very different from what It really Is. Mr. Redmond tells us that there is much less crime in Ireland than In England or Scot land, and threatens to have every crime of a serious character committed In these countries brought up in Parliament. No body has ever denied that there is leis crime of the character to which his re marks refer In Ireland than In other parts of the United Kingdom. What is as serted, and what is undoubtedly the fact, is that crimes are committed in Ireland from time to time, occasionally of the most brutal character, which are not the result of violent outbursts of temper or the acts of brutalized men and women, the victims of drink, but are deliberately planned and perpetrated In order to ter rorize the people against whom they are aimed." Most jpeople will remember the awful and melancholy times In the SQfs when crimes against the person were directed against the landlord class, the object be ing to terrorize the landlords and bring them to a state of subjection; now, the landlords being practically disposed of by the land purchase schemes, this sys tem of terrorism is directed against an other class. For the present It is the grazier who is to be terrorized and ex terminated. Are the people to be allowed to drive the cattle wherever tRey like, or commit other offenses of a similar, character, as part of a deliberate policy directed to the extinction of the graziers and the subsequent possession of the land by themselves? I aw of the Jjeague Rales. At present the only law which obtains in parts of Ireland Is the law of the League. There have been Innumerable instances where men have broken the rules of the League, have been summoned before a local court, tried as if they were In a court of justice, and sentenced: and In many cases these men.-afraid of the consequences to themselves, their fam--ilies and property, have at once sur rendered and promised that the thing shall never happen again. The government is pledged not to deal with Home Rule, but it ie deliber ately and with Its eyes open doing Us best to lay the foundation for home rule by surrendering Into the hands of the Nationalists all public control in Ireland. The government organs are urging the government to suspend all British loans for Irish land purchase, and thus bring the Irish politicians to book. Loud Cry for Coercion. Following upon Mr. Balfour's indict ment of the government for not put ting in force the crimes act to secure conviction of the cattle-raiders in Ire land, crown counsel in a prosecution at Wicklow declared that probably oth er means would have to be adopted to secure convictions In accordance with the evidence. Three men alreaS- ac quitted at Tullamore were being tried on the charge of cattle-driving. Mr. Buttersby, in opening the case, said: "There are other methods, and if those other methods are resorted to, the people of Ireland will only have themselves to blame." Of course, Mr. Buttersby's words were a plain Inti mation that the crimes act would be put into effect. Lord Halsbury, speaking at the United Club, said, with regard to Ireland, that a Minister was supposed to exact the carrying out of the law. It was idle to say that juries would not convict, for they had an act of Parliament, if they dared to put It In force, which would put a stop to the state of affairs. But the Minister dared not enforce the law for fear of the effect on the great mass of the govern ment Supporters. He could not think of anything more degrading than such such a course. Ireland Right or Wrong? T. M. Healy, M. P., when told that certain distinguished Liberal papers In England have been clamoring for the enforcement of the law against cattle-driving. If need be, by the appli cation of the provisions of the crimes act of 1887, remarked: "I may frankly tell you this, that If the foolish cackle of Liberal news papers were to result in coercion being forced upon Ireland, it would placo every Nationalist who is worth hia salt on the side of the cattle-drivers. Our motto is: 'Ireland, right or .wrong and If Fleet street donkeydom forces upon us the hateful alternative of tak ing sides as between English jailers of Irish members and Irish drivers of landgrabbers bullocks, it will not be difficult for anyone to make up his mind as to which side he will join." Churchill for Cabinet. LONDON, Jan. 8. Reports are heard in Liberal circles of a series of by-elections on the ministerial side shortly after the meeting of Parliament. It appears to be generally believed that there will be one resignation from the Cabinet, purely on personal grounds, and that there will be a reshuffling of the pack, with the cer tain inclusion of Winston Churchill with in the sacred circle. . One of two minor officeholders are also mentioned as being likely to be promoted, and the change generally, it Is expected, will entail three or four elections. It is an open secret that Mr. Churchill would have had a Cabinet oftice earlier If his agents in Manchester felt perfectly confident of his ability to retain his seat. That confidence is now said to exist.
