Separation from England, it was declared, could not fait, to be other wise than projudicial to cational interests and commerce.

A committee was appointed, to draft a policy embodying a scheme of self-government for Scotland based on the principles set forth in this resolution, and to report to a further meeting.

NO SEPARATION FROM

Duke of Montrose explained the object of the meeting, and stated that in every policy, if there was to be any vitality, there must be some ideal or good to work for. In his view there was only one real reason for self-government, and that was the better government of Scot land and the social advancement of this people.

"We do not," he added, "suffer from tyranny, religious persecu- tion, plavery or chains of bondage, and our claim is boiled down to the fact that our only reason for self- government is that we believe, with Parliament of our own in Seot- and we could and would manage our own affairs better than they are being managed today from Westminster.

Policy on Moderate Lines,

The invitation to be how Scottish people dealt with present was addressed to those who those questions peculiar to them were understood to be in sympathyselves.
