Mulloy and Frederick Cor- * bett of the Hartford branch of the so- : ciety and Rev. Thomas J. Gasson, ! formerlx, president of Boston colege. : Thomas J. Mulloy, the president of i the Hartford branch was the first speaker. He said in part: It is abso- I lutely ne for every Irishman to : stand Ireland in this, the most * critical period of her long fight for freedom. He must do this regardless of whether it conflicts with his bus- | * iness or his politics. It is now per. = haps too late to hand out a_ small| amount of self-government to Ireland. i (Applause) Why should Ireland be| * excepted in the doctrine of _self-de- | I fermination laid down by President < Wilson? Should this doctrine only be| - applicable to the Central Powers? Is T it necessary that a nation shall have fonght against us for nearly two years in order to get justaice? We do not hate England nor the English peo- ple, but we are forced to believe that T the rulers of the English people and some of those people hate Treland and = the Irish. The underhanded actions of I Sir Edward Carson ruined the effec- tiveness of the Home Rule bill*which ohn Redmond succeeded in getting Z¢hrough parliament finally after thir- ty_years of effort.

Armenia has nothing on Ire- | peal only to the sense of justice ‘of |land in the way of misery.” We ap- America. America has never failed to | help the oppressed nations of the earth and she will not fail now. The second speaker was Frederick Corbett, also of Hartford. He said T am always ready to talk on Free- | dom. I was educated here in Connec- ticut where we are murtured in the | public schools on the old New Eng- land_spirit at Columbia university where per- haps more than at any other univer- sity theér is a spirit of freedom. He then read a_set of resolutions drawn up by the Bridgeport Pastors’ asso- ciation protesting against the flying of the flag of the Irish Republic from the town hall in Bridgeport. The res- olutions stated that te fly the Irish flag beside Old Glory would be an in- sult to every true American. They asserted that the oblect of the pres-|the pumping station, ent campaigns being: carried on by the Irish in this country was hatred of a friendly ally—Bngland. They de- clared that the Irish Republic was aiming to replace the democratic go ernment of England with one which would be autocratic, and ecclesiastical Furthermore they asserted that the men who were trying to do away’ with the government which had done so much already in way of reform had been allies of Germany and had been ready ‘to sacrifice all to Germany at a to gain their own selfish ends. Mr. Corbett said that he had knowledge of the Bridgeport pastors’ asSociation, but he had a strong imagination. He. asked for proof of the widespread reform already accom- plished. - He declared that the mem- bers of the pastors" association were using Ulst8r logic and acting with the old time-honored New England big- otry which he had hoped wis jong since dead, but which persisted in | showing its head every now and then. Continuing he said: T think that the Catholics have ever been more toler- ant than the Protestants. This pas- tors' association is using the same sort of logic that is used with the crackers of Florida and Georgia to win elections. Governor Cass got their vote because he told them that if the Catholics got into office the Pope would be vresident .of the United States. The religious issue in Ire- land is one of wide cleavage. Of the signers of the Ulster Covenant, ninety per cent. of the men and eighty per cent. of the women were Protestants.| Mr. Corbett detailed the history of Ireland during the summer of 1914] when the country was an armed camp | and sajd that while in the north Car- | son was allowed to drill and equip| Ulster volunteers, when McNeil | tried to arm the southerners for their own proteétion the British govern- ment sent troops against them and| fired on them Kkilling and wounding them, who were doing no more than f freedom.

Co. | JEWETT CITY Jewett City people who sought a Sunday ‘outing away from the bor- ough limits either hired an automo- bile or resorted to that old reliable Shapks' mare for transpestation. Lo cal people were much pleased with the efforts of the railroad company to afford transportation Saturday with six special trains. The comparatively small_patronage was due fo the fact that most of the time, when people would have availed themselves of the gppertumity to”enjoy. their accustomed Saturday visit to Norwich. -The rain feil in torrents and the streets were flooded. The railroad company is well aware of the enormous passenger traffic be- tween Jewett City and Norwich. Al- most - any car, especially Saturday, carries its capacity from here to Roints south. If the strike is not set- tied at onee it is belieyed here that the railroad’ comna a fair schedule, will proyi passen- ger transportation from - points north to Norwich. - Jewett "City people feel that” thev who have patronized _the rajlread and trolley service so liber- ily, ‘should receive some sort of fa- orable consideration from the com- panies, providing -an opbportunity to cy and accommedation.
