NEGLECTING TO DIP SHEEP. Warning to Farmers. At the Colwyn Petty Sessions on Monday last, Mr John Rogers, Rbiwau farm, wal charged with neglecting to dip 1,353 sheep, and was fined £ 1 and costs. Mr Rogers did not attend. P.C. Goulding stated that on the 2nd Sept. he visited Rhiwan farm and asked defendant's SOD, Mr Thomas Rogers, why they had ne- glected to dip their sheep. In reply, Mr Thomas Rogers said he was not the boss," but that he had told his father about it a week previous. He (witness) made arrangements to have the sheep dipped on the 3rd and 4th Sept., and on the firPt date saw 904 sheep dipped and on the following day 349 sheep and 100 lambs, which made a total of 1,353. On the 4th he asked defendant wby he did not dip them before, and in reply be said that the weather bad been too fine. The specified time for dipping was between the 14th July and the 1st Sept., aDd on a previous date be bad seen 800 sheep the property of Mr Rogers dipped. The Chairman said Ivi- Rogers ought to have beeu present; the Bf-ucb did not like to be treated in that way. The Clerk said that ltrr Rogers was a great deal over 80 years of a^t. Superintendent Jones said that this was the first case of the kind in Radnorshire, and be was pleased to say that tbe Radnorshire farmers generally carried out the dipping instructions well, although some of them neglected to return the dipping passes. Too Chairman said that was a very serious offence, and defendant's neglect might have caused a great deal of damage.

Truly of the making of religion there is no end. MUSICAL SUCCESSES.—The Associated Board of the R A.M. and the R.C.M. Miss Gwladys Marshall and Miss Dorothy Hedger have success- fully passed the elementary division of the above examinations and obtained certificates.

Both these candidates had excellent marks and are now the possessors of two certificates each, as they were also successful last year; and great credit is due to them for their good work. They were pre- pared by Miss Gertrude A. Garlick. FOOTBALL SEASON.

Mr H Graystone, The Moor, Clifford, was re- elected president of the club, and the following names were added to the list of vice-presidents: —Messrs Nugent Hope and H J Stephens, Captain Peacock and Dr. Sheperd. Mr H B C Whitehouse was re-elected treasurer, and Messrs H R Armstrong and A C Samson were re-elected auditors. The following were elected on the committee: —Messrs F R Lofts, Joo.

A smoking concert afterwards took place, and the following contributed songs :-Messrs H Morris, A J deWinton, C G N Morris, and H Webb. Mr C G Portman acted as accom- panist. The obair was occupied by Mr H Garnett Rolt, and among those present were Messrs H R Armstrong, Jas Cater, H B C Whitebouse, J M Maddy, E J Lloyd, H R Grant, G H Magness, H J Stephens, J H Lloyd, C G N Morris, E J Stephens, C P Port- man, J Watkins, F Cadman, W Boands, Fred Cook, C Richards, A J deWinton, H Morris, Pearson, J P Lloyd, C E Tannard Moore, Stanley Lewis. Humphrey Webb, Harry Webb, R Webb, C G Portman, Reece Morris, H F Jones, C Crompton, Parry Jones, P Mawdesley, Arthur Crompton, H Lotts, &c. Mr H R Armstrong, M.A. (Cantab), gave a very instructive address on the Home Role question. By means of a historical retrospect he showed bow the Home Rule question had arisen. Ireland, he said, bad never been a nation. Originally it was a collection of tribes governed by customs, not laws. In the earliest times it was the centre of missionary activity for Northern England and Switzerland, but it had no history until 1800. Previously, from 1154 English interference alternated between neglect and savage military oppression of native revolt. It were the foothold of any power who wished to attack England, as for instance Spain and France hence Romanist activity. William of Orange attempted to grant toleration but the Irish rejected it. The old Irish Parliament was corrupt, and in the hands of three families whose nominees sat at Dublin. In 1703 the Irish Parliament presented an address to Queen Anne imploring her to promote a legislative union between England and Ireland, but the request, though stronglv nrp;ed and supported, proved cnivail- ing. England's fault was not in carrying out the Quiou wijbii she did, but in the detay in doing so. In the meantime, in 1782, the English Government frankly and fully occeded to a demand from Ireland for an Independent Parliament. This lasted until 1800, whi-u the Irish Houses of Parliament agreed upon & j)iot address to the King which consented to the Act of Union. The British Parliament com- pleted the work by accepting the resolutions of the Irish Honsee. The Royal assent was given and the union was formally proclaimed (Jan. 1, 1801). So the Irish Legislature, which existed between 1782 and 1800, ceased to exist. It had been at all times a corrupt assembly and was never truly representative of the Irish nation. Those who were making the demand at the present time for Home Rule were the nominees of Irish Americans and Italian prelates. They vore the descendants and associates of those hose steps were, according to Gladstone, ogged with crime and wbo were marching through rapine to the dismemberment of the Empire" of the assassins of Burke and Caven- dish the paid servants of Patrick Ford, who in 1870 elaborated a scheme to burn down Locdon, for which scheme 1-18,000 was sub- scribed. They were the descendants and associates of those men who cheered British reverses in South Africa; they were the associates of Col. Lynch, who was convicted of treason and yet now took the oath of allegiance; of the people who in Dublin refused an address of loyalty to the King, and who refused to siug the National Anthem. Under the Unionist Land Reform, Ireland Was becoming content, but obviously with the growth of industry the occupation of salaried agitators was gone. The only analogies given by Gladstone in 1893 in support of Home Rule were Norway and Sweden and Austro-Hungary, both singalarly unfortunate. The world wide political tendency was to consolidate, as in the case of the German Empire, Italy, and even the Balkan States. Among all the leaders of Home Rule, two only predominated, viz., Parnell, au Englishman, and Redmond, a landlord. Few of the leaders bad ever shown any business capacity for organisation. Any- one could plot and scheme against authority few could construct but all could obstruct. Above all Ireland consisted of two countries, two races and two religions. Both could exist under a firm central Government, meeting out equal justice, but chaos would result from an administration of the majority, and a separate administration of the minority would mean bankruptcy. Ulster objected to Home Rule because it considered tnat its status would be degraded by impairing its relationship to the Imperial Parliament. Home Rule would alap impair its civil and religious liberties. It should be remembered that the Irish were clerically con- trolled, and obviously the majority of a Home Rule Parliament would be under Romanist infloeuce. Rome might appear dormant, but she still claimed power to control states and absolve front allegiance, and had never accepted the modern idea of tolerance. Recently Roman influence was much revived by the Ne Temere decree, by which no marriage was valid in the eyes of the Roman Church un- less contrected in the presence-of the Roman priest, and the issue of mixed marriages wa9 considered illegitimate. Then again Rome decreed that whoever without permission from aD ecclesiastical authority summoned any [ cClesiast ical person to a lay tribunal incurred instant excommunication. In the official copy of the Ten Command- ments put up in the State schools in Ireland ihe words Image and Thou shalt not bow down to them were deleted. When a manager of nine National schools in Belfast wrote, on May 26th last, to the Commissioners of Education asking them to allow him to put up a copy taken from the Authorised Version of the Bible, he received the reply that the Commissioners cannot sanction your request." The name of the minister who wrote was William Corker Towneend, Presbyterian Church, Belfast. When 3 Roman Catholic Emancipation was discussed the most emphatic guarantees were given by high Roman officials that the position of the then Established Church should not be imperilled. Then followed Disestablishment, so that, rightly or wrongly, the guarantees were not worth any- thing. Therefore, wbat would be the concision of the Church of fceland under Home Rale ? What WISH there to prevent the confiscation of property, fixed ia 1870, by the proposed Dublin Parliament. The people of Ulster conid also aee that Home Rule would involve the denom- inmtionalising of all education in favour of Romanists, and that it wonH impair Ulster's material prosperity, owing to excessive tax- ation, arnd by reason of diminished assistance for agriculkre. Already the Wyndharn Act, whioh had been of such bene fit to those con- cerned, bad been neutralised by Birreil's Act of 1909, which created technioal prsvisions rendering tree sale between landlord and tenant; impossible. Referring to the Wyndham Act, Mr John Dillon, in 1906, said at Stwinford, I wish to Heaven we had the power to obstruct the smooth working of the Act more than we did. It has worked too smoothly. For my part I took on it as working a great deal too fust, and nt a paoe ruinous to the people." If Home Rule was enforced civil war would be the result. If North East Ulster was treated separately then bankruptcy would follow. Suppression for gain or greed of territory was understandable, but to attempt to coerce beliefs and ideas was a crime. There was no stronger combination than religious fervour and political aspirations. Cromwell's Army was an example of this, and it was the admiration of Europe. The present state of Ulster showed what they were to expect. The alternative to passing the Home Rule Bill was to withdraw it and go to the country, and the country would reject it. What were they to do then ? Reduce representation of Ireland, enforce existing laws, stop cattle driving, and increase the facilities for land purchase. Above all, Turn out the present Government." Mr John Maund, in proposing a vote of thanks to Mr Armstrong, said the committee need never worry about getting outside speakers when they bad one amongst their number capable of giving such an excellent address as they had listened to that evening. Mr A J de Winton seconded in a speech of considerable interest. He said the club ought to be exceedingly grateful to Mr Armstrong for the admirable statement be had given them about the history of the Home Rule question. The vote was carried with acclamation and Mr Armstrong suitably replied. In the absence of Mr Cheese, Mr Tuanard- Moore presented Mr G H Magness with the distinguished service medal of the Association of Conservative Clubs together with the asso- ciation certificate for services rendered to the Conservative cause. A hearty vote of thanks was accorded Mr H Garnett Rolt for presiding and in reply Mr Rolt said that when he came to Hay 24 years ago he thought it a splendid little town. He came as a total stranger but he bad met kindness at the hands of everybody. He came with the intention of staying only a short time but be was so delighted with the place that he hoped be should stay continuously. Hay was unlike any town in England that be knew, for there was not that backbiting over political matters which was so prevalent in other places.

Colwyn Petty Sessions. Monday.—Before Messrs E D Thomas (in the chair), H Evan-Thomas, Tboctias Davies and William Prothero. DRUNKENNESS. John Swift, 4, Mount Pleasant, Llandrindod Wells, was charged with being drunk in the parish of Llanelwedd on August 13th and was fined Is and 5s 6d costs. P.C. Goulding stated that be found defendant sleeping on the grass near Builtb Wells rail way station. TEMPORARY TRANSFER. Mr P Collier, solicitor, Builth Wells, applied for a temporary transfer of the licence of the "Drover's Arms," Howey, from Mr Jones to Mr William Jenkins, of Pontardulas, and the application was granted. WITHOUT COLLARS. Jestyn Morgan, Llwynpia, Glamorganshire, outfitter, was summoned for allowing two dogs to be at large without named collars in the parish of Llansantfraed-in-Elvel on August 14, and was fined 10s including costs. P.C. Goulding said defendant told him that the dogs bad followed him from home, and that he was not aware that they were coming till he had gone some distance. NO FORMS AT THB POST OFFICE. William Phillips, Bwysnant farm, Glascwm, was summoned for keeping three dogs without licences, bnt after hearing the evidence the Bench dismissed the case. P.C. Goulding stated that on the 29th of April be saw three dogs with the defendant at Bwysnant farm. Asked whether he bad ex- emptions or not, Mr Phillips said be bad always had exemptions for two dogs, but be bad neglected to take them out this year. The third dog bad only been in his possession for a week and he was going to return it at once. Defendant now said that early in the year be and another man called at the Post Office for exemption papers and they were unable to get them, as the officials were out of the forms at the time. After that be forgot all about it for a time, but on the date the constable visited him he bad the forms in the house. The strange dog belonged to Mr Samuel, of Builth Wells, and it had left bis premises. Mr Thomas Davies said the Bench were satisfied that Mr Phillips made an application to the Post Office for forms, and there were no forms available, and that then the matter was forgotten for a time. One thing the Bench wished to impress was the importance of securing the papers for exemptions early in the month of January, and be hoped that owners of dogs would take a warning from what bad been said that day.

ALLEGED ARSON NEAR HAY. 60 Tons Stack Fired. o Saturday last there was » serious stack fire in James'ts meadow, Sbeepoote, Clifford, near Hay, 60 tons of hay, the property ot the executors of the late Mr Peter CoatH, being involved.
