Comment in the afternoon papers is
cxtrimcly critical of Mr. Asquith's ?
handling of the situation. Several
1 papers hold that he has suffered a se
ri?ai loss of prestige, while all ngree
'that the breakdown must be repaired
immediately.
The most hop*rul feature of the
I pre.ent Irish situation. snys "The
'' Times," is "the fact that most of the
! members of the House of Commons do ,
I not accept the existing deadlock as a
nermanent barrier to the eventual so
lution ?t 8*88 problem."
"Nobodv who heard the speeehes of
: Mr. Redmond and Sir Kdward Carson "
eontinues "The Times," "can doubt that
' an enrfuring settlement will |ome day j
'? he built on the foundation laid during
the last ten weeks. The Cabinet, hav
; ing failed to devise a scheme whereby
Nationalist Ireland eould govern itself,
has now .set to work to recreate a
system of government for l'nited Ire?
land.
"There will not be any resignations
from the Cabinet, but the Parliamen
tary position of the Cabinet 4vill bc
sensibly mfluenced by the new attitude
whieh the Nationalists threaten to take.
The Nationalists prohably will aligfl
themselves as a peimanent opposition,
with complete freedom to criticise the
government."
"Irish Times" Calls
for Political Truce
Dublin, July 25. Commenting on the
Irish situation, "The Irish Times" to?
day saysr
"A political truce must be restored.
There must be an agreement on the
necessity fr^r a just and firm admin
istration in Ireland during the
period of the war. The present blun?
ders have increased that necessity and
only disloyal or ahort-sighted Nation?
alists will arrest measures whieh the
government must take without fur?
ther delay for the maintenance of
peace nnd safety. If this necessity
be generally accepted, the way may
become clear for rurther developmcnts
in the unity aumng Irishmen."
"The Irish Independent" says:
"Kvery honest Irish Nationalist will
rejoice at the disappearanee of the
hatcful and nefanous scheme of
Lloyd George and the government to
divide and dismember Ireland.
"Hut. uafortUBBtely, the manner in
whieh thc plan was conceived, togeth?
er with the trickery nnd chicanery by
V4hich tho government sought to im
pose it upon the country, will con
atitute forever an unedifying and dis
honorahle episode in r,ur history."
The Most Rev. William J. Walsh,
Archbishop of Dublin, hns issued a let?
ter to the publie condemning the con
duct of the Home Rule cause in Parlia
ment and holding that it eould only
lead to diaaater. He says the country
now "faeaa ? trnly awful prospect, aad
