London, Saturday, Jan. 20—Ulster | Norwich Men Representing Manufacturing, and Other Intevests. i | DR. PATRICK Finance, the Law, Commerce, CASSIDY. is now the political storm center in the United Kingdom. Home rule has been | discussed in England and Scotland by | nationalists and unionists, but no great | enthuslasm has been aroused elther for or against. In Ireland, outside of Ul- ater, the people are firmly convinced have home rule. | Ulsterites, however, are to thelr eyes | in fight. Several big demonstrations have been held in various parts of Ulster to pro test any change in the form of g ernment of the country. One of the demonstrations in Belfast was of the industrial workers; another in Omaugh was largely made up of farmers, small holders and farm laborers who showed just as strong opposition to home rule as dld their city brothers. Tn the latter place again the Ulsterites pledged themselves to form a provisional gov- ernment if the bill is passed. Evgry voter In Ulster, however, is not 2 unionist. There is, in fact, a fairly large sprinkling of nationalists. In many cases the unfonist members were only returned in the last elections by narrow majorities. The ‘Marquis of Hamilton, for instance, won by only 100 votes in Londonderry. One division of Belfast itself is represented by John Devlin, one of the nationalist leaders. Into this district, the battleground of home rule for the present at least, the government and nationalists are to carry their banner. The date selected for the first meeting is Feb. 8, and unionists and nationalists of Belfast are predicting a lively night, no mat- ter where the mesting is held. Elab- orate police precaution will be taken for the protection of Mr. Churchill Should he be joined by Mr. Redmond in the drive from the residence of Lord Pirrle, where he is to be a guest, to the place of meeting, with Mr. Red- mond’'s usual escort of nationalists, there is almost certain to be rioting. Except for a visit of Lloyd George, chancellor of the exchequer in 1906, and another by Mr. Birrell, chief sec- retary for Ireland in 1907, no liberal statesman has spoken in Belfast for eighteen years, and when Mr. Churchill and Mr, Redmond sit down it will be the first time a liberal cabinet ministar and the natfonalist leader have spoken from the same platform in the city. Unionists are organizing a counter- demonstration, but the first lord of the admiralty In advocating a policy which his father with equal vehemence de- nounced will be ths center of attrac- tion. It will be an interesting moment in the interesting life of Mr. Churchill. The announced determination to fight rather than accept home rule is taking the form of organization in Ulster. One reads in the unionist papers of the appointment of drillmasters to in- struct the members of the 4,300 Orange Jodges in the use of arms, and William Moore, member of parliament, has taken the lead in offering the use of land for drilling purposes and an- nouncing that, as a justice of thae peace, he would give frustworthy per- sons the necessary permission to drill The Irish unionists have taken the old city hall, Belfast, for thelr head- quarters and they this will be the home of the provinclal government ghould home rule becoms an accom- plished fact.

Depositors Widely Scattered. One of the main causes of the delay in adfusiing the condition of the bank will be the inability to secure all of pussbooks.
