IMPERIAL POLITICS.
MR. BOXAR LAW'S PREDICTIONS,
By Cable—Press Association—Copyright.
London, October 27. Mr. Bonar Law, who is the guest of the Nonconformist Unionists, alluding to the Government's refusal to accept an amendment giving power to the Irish judiciary, said the courts were always a terror to tyrants. To them Hampden appealed against a despotic King, and it was equally necessary today against the tyranny of the majority. If, as Mr. Churchill suggested, after Home Rule was passed there would be a general election before it became operative, it meant that the Government foresaw defeat. Mr. Law predicted there would be bloodshed in Ulster before Home Rule became law, and trouble in the rest of Ireland when it was reversed.
