INTERVIEW WITH THE EDITOR

Bloom talks to the editor

—Just this ad, Mr Bloom said, pushing through towards the steps, puffing, and taking the cutting from his pocket. I spoke with Mr Keyes just now. He’ll give a renewal for two months, he says. After he’ll see. But he wants a par to call attention in the Telegraph too, the Saturday pink. And he wants it copied if it’s not too late I told councillor Nannetti from the Kilkenny People. I can have access to it in the national library. House of keys, don’t you see? His name is Keyes. It’s a play on the name. But he practically promised he’d give the renewal. But he wants just a little puff. What will I tell him, Mr Crawford?

Kilkenny People Newspaper is still in circulation today. It was originally published as a paper geared toward supporters of Parnell. On an interesting note, the current editor of the paper’s last name is Keyes. (source)
