THE LEADERS ON THE DANGER.
The constitutional risks af Home Rule are pointed out by Mr. Balfour
What are the constitutional dan- gers of creating rival Parliaments i the same Stato? They are-friction,"! -collision of-jurisdiction, and in the end national disintegration. Of these fric- tion is scarcely to be avoided... The appetite for self-assertion, inherent in every Assembly... will take the menacing form of an international quarral. What will is avail, when that time comes that in 1912 the Irish leaders declared themselves content with a subordinate Legislature? It is their earlier speeches of a very differ
ant tenor that will be remembered."
His opinion is absolutely endorsed by Mr. Bonar Law
.
After all, the Union was due in the first Woodcock. instance to actual military necessities. Woodlark **Without s' Union," wrote that able soldier Cornwallis in 1900, the British Empire must be dissolved.".

Ireland is not one nation but two distinct peoples separated by impass able differences of race and creod. I Ireland can claim Home Rule as against Great Britain, then Ulater can claim Home Bule as against the rest of Ireland. The point is admirably put by Mr. Sin-
