CONSTITUTES THE LEADINq TO-
PIC IN LONDON.
1Tas Sprung as a Surprise—People Cromer'
ally Believe M. Chamberlain Worked Xt
Up—it Will Do Much to Popularize the
Government in Ireland.
London, May e4. ---The scheme of the
Government for the relief of Ireland, as
outlined in the }louse of Commons yes-
terday by the First Lord et the Treasury,
Mr. A. J. Balfour, was sprung as a sur-
prise upon most of the members and is
tho leading topic for disoassion in the
political world to -day, Both parties
attributed it to the influence of Joseph
Chamberlain, the Seerotary of State for
the Colonies, and it is admitted by all'
that it will do much to popularize the
Government in Ireland, and also tautefl,.
its progressist supporters in England.
On the other hand, many Liberals be-
lieve it will help them rather than the
Unionists, for, if it is a success, it will
disarm the opposition to Home Rule.
Under the schema) the tardier& Will
receive about ree0o,o00 yearly, and the
tenants will be relieved of about R400,000
of yearly Mermen:). lt is understood that
tho project waS approved at Thursda.y's
Cabinet council, and that before it is
submitted to Parliament its salient tea-
times will be communicated in confidence
to the leading Trish landlords.
• Timothy M. Healy and. a couple of
other Irish Members of Parhament in
one of the Liberal newspapers describe
the scheme as a minor revolution, largely
demeeratio and beneficent in giving local
government to Ireland,
FAVORITES FOR LONG YEARS,
For long years Diamond Dyes have
been the favorite family dyes in the
Dominion of •Canada; mid although
imitation peckage dyes have been
plentifully offered for sale, their great
inferiority to the "Diamond" in
strength, fastness, beauty of tolor and
brilliaucy was known to the great ma-
jority of women, and they \veva con-
denamed and avoided by all who val-
ued good and bright colors. No sensa
ble woman eau afford to risk her goods
with poor dyes when tbe" Diamond"
are admittedly the world's best.
A most important point to remember
is that the Diamond Dyes cost no more
than the crude and commoi'i dyes sold
by some dealers for the sake of large
profits.
Ask your dealer for tbe "Diamond ";
if be values your trade be svill be in
a positien to Supply you.
