THE HOME RULE BILL.
DISCUSSION IN THE LORDS. (Received 10.20 a.m.) London, January 28. Earl Grey, in the House of Lords, said that as a convinced Federalist, he strongly opposed the Home Rule Bill. He preferred that Ulstermen in the north-east be given self-govern-ment similar to that prevailing in Ontario. Nationalists in the West and South should have the same rights as the men of Quebec. It was imperative in the Empire’s interests that the question should bo settled on lines satisfying to the democracies in the selfgoverning Dominions and the United States. Lord Dulitaven said the Bill was incompatible with Federation, and imposed no adequate check on order and Hibernianism.
