AUSTRALIA AND HOME RULE.
[BY TELEGRAPH—COPYRIGHT.] (reuter’s telegram.) London, July 25. The Pall Mall Gazette to-day publishes a report of an interview between one of its representatives and Sir P. Jennings (exPremier of New South Wales). In the course of the interview, the latter declared that the Australian colonies in the bulk are in favour of Home Rule for Ireland on Imperial grounds.
(press association.l London, July 23. The Pall Mall Gazette says the tone of Sir T. Jennings’ remarks was more Nationalist than the Preeman’s Journal itself. He stated that Australians support the Home Rule system and local selfgovernment, and are towards the views of the Irish Nationalists. Irish feeling in Australia had been deeply excited by the recent evictions. The Press, with the exception of the Sydney Morning Herald, was almost unanimously in favour of Home Rule. Colonists regarded the question from an Imperial standpoint, and sympathised with a people struggling to obtain what they themselves had secured after a period of much trial and difficulty.
