Thev have . no nght here, not one of them, except . the right of conq~st. which is murder and t(;bb-ery.

The man who says better ;nglish law thau German in Ireland is as slavish as he who reYerses the position. As long as we ha"e the Irish Volunteers we will have neither.

FELLOW C6U NTRYMEN, It is close upon seven months since tee Irish \:olunt~ers were called into being by a manifesto issued on the 25th Noyembe.T. 1D13, in the name .of the Provisional Body who now make this further appeal to the courage aud patriotism of Irishmen. ' The time is not inopportune. To that first appeal a splendid response has been given by the youth and manhood of Ire. land.

The. call to Irishmen t? form an army of national defence against aggressi~ from whatever quarter it might come, allf to take upon themselves the defence cif those rights and liberties common to ",'.¥ the people of Irela.nd has not fallen on deaf ears or cold hearts.

The right of a free people to carry arms in defence of their freedom is an elementary part of political liberty. Tbe denial of that right is a denial of politicaI liberty, and consistent only with a despotic form of government.

They have rights who dare maintain them.

The demand of the .people of Ireland is unmistakable. They demand this elernentary right of freemen-the right to place arms in the hands of the orga..nised an4 disciplined defenders cf their liberty.

Ireland to-daypossesses an army of meg actuated by a: common spirit of patriot, ism, daily acquiring and applying !h( habits of disciplined and concerted action and rapidly fitting themselves to ~:;'1' arms.

We denounce as hostile to cur liberty, c;vic as well as national, the denial of th'is And further, since the action of the, Government places in the way of Irishmen favourable to national autonomy obstacles which admittedly are inoperative in' the case of those opposed to the policy of Irish self-government, we urge the demand throqgh every representative voice in Ireland for the immediate dithdrawal of tbe proclamation prohibiting the ~, port of arms into Ireland.

We are glao to recognise that the tilt.!§ has come when the Irish Parliament~ Party. with Mr John Redmond at its het>" have been able, owing to the development of the Irish Volunteer Organisation on sound and well-defined national lines, to associate themselves by public declaration with a work which the nation has spontaneously taken in hands. Their acces,. sion is all the more welcome since, from the outset of the Irish Volunteer movement. we have made it our constant aim to bring about a whole and sincere unity. of the Irish people on the grounds of national freedom.

In that spirit, too, we look forward with eager hope to the day when the minority of our Iellow-countrja moo, still apparently separated from .., in affection, will be joined hand in ha~ with the majority in a Union, withiiá which the rights and liberties common &'1 all the people of ireland w il] be sacred \u all and will be a trust to be defended <by lhd arms and lives of all Irishmen.
