IRELAND'S RUIN.

From an article by Sir Edward Sulli-
van in the London Globe: We have
ruined Ireland by our free-trade madness,
by that and nothing else, and Ireland has
right to demand of US to restore her in
dustries, her right to work, her prosperi-
ty, that we have taken from her. This is
what Ireland asks of us, and what do we
offer her? Sophisms, platitudes, mock
cries, nonsense. eff you are short of
shoe cut off your foot" is the nature of
advice we give her. eff you are short of
work in Ireland leave the country
and go and look for it in America, or
Australia, or Canada. Don't presume
to hope that we will bring work to you'll"
We export them, pay their expenses out
of the public purse, to leave the most
fertile land on Gods earth! In the name
of that cruel god, free trade, we tear them
from their homes, send them to strange
lands and amongst strange people
make rolling stones of whole nation.
We will give bountles to any extent to
induce them to leave the country but we
will not give bounties to build up work
for them at home, to create economic
conditions under which they can live and
thrive in their own country. Don't be
fools enough to attempt to develop your
natural resources" we say to them.
''Don't work your coal or your iron, or
your peat, don't make cottons, or silks,
or wo0lens; don't grow corn, or potatoes,

The smoke increased to thick haze,
which dimmcd the light. Tessa stood
calm and gazed upon the surging,
plunging multitude. She saw many
beings trampled and crushed. She ad
