Home rule : Irishmen, remember that if you are separated from England as to your legislature, you must raise your own taxes to replace those now paid by the imperial parliament for your military and police, & your judicial and county courts.../
Cavendish H. Foster.
Summary: | Broadisde issued by the Lord Lieutenant concerning home rule stating that Ireland cannot support itself financially and will lose political power in the British Parliament. Remainder of text reads: "At present you have no assessed taxes, no excise duties on railways. These exemptions amount to £4,000,000.
