There is warm approval OF the scheme
suggested by f E Baines OF Dublin
for the economic regeneration of Ire

Mr.. Baines believes that Ireland has
all the needful elements to make her

sequently troublesome TO make ship

proposes to make the ancient city o.
Galway transatlantic port and TO con
nect it with kingstown, near Dublin

with the present Grand canal that run.
nearly half way across the country
BY this means the product of fisherie,
of the west and southwest could be con
veyed cheaply TO kingstown, wher,
fast steamers might rush across tbs
channel and deliver at Holyhead TO ex

in London in a few hours. This might
be vastly improved upon if the proposed
tunnel is constructed under the Irish
