FOR INCORPORATION IN CANADA.
LYNN T. LFET TALKS OF THE INDICTMENT
WHICH MAY BE OFFERED TO FOR
FIGN COMPANIES

Lynn T. Leet prominent banker Of Montreal
who is in this city for few days private busi-
ness. is also much interested in movement to
induce American industrial combinations to effect
incorporation in the Dominion and is gathering in
formation the subject from various presidents Of
recently organized corporations and other authori-
ties in this city. Mr.. Leet said last night in
gard to this matter.

win be passed making it possible for the province

throughout Canada Is TO remove out of date

declaration in Canada that their entire capital

IRIsHMEN AND HOME RULE.


ONE OF THEM THINKS THEY ARE MAKING SELF
GOVERNMENT FOR IRELAND IMPOSSIBLE.
To the Editor of The Tribune.
SIR L once heard Olive Logan begin a lecture
on Girls with the words. Girls. you are my ad-
miratlon and my despair" AS an lrshman, l
might regretfully say that II you change the word
girls TO my countrymen," might attach my
autograph to the sentence. 1 native irish
man, to the manor born. am also home ruler
and have for years, both by voice and pen' been
aiming at the boon Of self-government for the
dear old land. And here is where I find the
ground for my statement that my countrymen are
my despair" The attitude of a certain class OF
Irishmen will make 1t next to impossible TO intro
duce the question OF Home Rule IN the British
Parliament for many day They to be
more desirous of showing their bitterness against
Britain than of securing the comfort and peace of
their country. Irshmen should remember that the
Britain of to-day is not the Britain Of the days of
their oppression. The world moves, and no nation
has been responsive to the forward march
than Great Britain. Every part of the immense
empire is preparing for self-government, and Brit
ain is more than willing that every dependency
should exercise it, But what nation would grant
self-government to people whose professed rep
resentatves seized every favorable opportunity to
proclaim their disloyalty, in language offensive
that even self-respect would force the nation to
take cognizance OF it. and no other nation on earth
would tolerate it?
Too many of my countrymen live in the past and
nurse their wrath against grievances OF the
eighteenth century and the first half of the nine
in 1929 and Church Disestablishment in 1869. and
thus removed all religious grievances. There is no
country in the world whose citizens enjoy religious
equality more completely than those of Great
Britain We must remember also that. while
Home Rule rejected in 1856 by majority of
so, It was adopted In 1898 by majority Of 81 in
the great representative house Of the nation. True
it was rejected by the Lords, but they have al
ways rejected reform measures till compelled TO
accept them.
There never was a favorable hour for the
irish cause than the present. The yalor of the
Irish regiments in Africa, the gallant conduct
Of the Fuslers the Connaught Rangers. and
others of equally sterling stuff. will furnish an ar
gument that the House of Lords will find unan-
swerable In truth. can see Home Rule already
at doors but for the shadow thrown on the
by the transcendant folly of the orators
above referred to. have said as plain things
about Britain's misgovernment of Ireland as any
man on the continent. But when see her shaping
herself to remove every cause Of grievance, ac-
cept the change thankfully and give her my un-
qualified support. A. BURNS.

THE SOLDIERS AND SAILORS MONUMENT.

THE SOLDIERS AND SAILORS MONUMENT.
To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: AS 1t is shown through protest of the So
ciety of Landscape Architects that the site fixed
for the Soldiers and Sailors Monument is i'm
practicable It not less than duty the
Monument Commissioners the public to pause
and consider
Misfortune has attended the efforts Of this Com
mission from the first In it's efforts to suit design
to site and a site to design. One mishap or
another has shifted the place six times. and the
conditions worse now than ever before The
present site at Eighty-sixth-st and Riverside
Drive is thought by the landscape experts good
for monument made to fit It, but not for the
approved design, which made for another
place The manifold changes of plan and attend
ing delays have doubtless been trying and exasper
more than ever before, because everything
seemed to promise completion of the Monu-
ment Commissions work. The Municipal Art
Commission, whose function it to pass upon
the fitness of design and site has approved the
fitting Of a design to a site which has been shown
ttcabe. have doubt that under these cir
cumstances the Mayor, who is oficio member
of both the Monument and Municipal Art commits
sions will his way clear to call for g. read
tustment of the whole matter. and should think
both commissions would be pleased to have him
take such action. 1t would the Monument
Commission from making of the end of It's work
perpetual evidence of the neglectfulness incom-
potency of the Municipal Art Commission. rather
than a proper monument, and s25O,O0O is too much
to pay for such object lesson.

CONCERNING EAST RIVER BRIDGES.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: Editorials and correspondence essayng to
voice public opinion invite discussion and COM
ment; therefore kindly permit few words from a
Long Island resident Of the city of New-York in
regard to the proposed tunnels and bridges
Comparisons constantly being presented be-
tween this city and London. Mr.. Coler mentions the
London tunnes-two completed, while third also
started a decade ago, is not quite finished. He
however, does not say word about the existing
bakers dozen of London bridges. free not only to
pedestrians but to all kinds of vehicles. Contrast
this with our own city. While we have bridge
between the boroughs of Manhattan and Brooklyn
there does not exist a proper thoroughfare be-
tween Queens and Manhattan. The Thirty-fourth-
St ferry 1t appears is the private property of the
Long Island Railroad Company If SO disposed
might it not take off all but Of it's ferryboats
leaving one, perhaps. to meet corporation require
ments? The congested condition Of transit over this
antique crossing is getting to be a menacing and
serious matter to all both sides OF the
river Is it to be expected that any change will be
effected while each citizen going to and fro must
pay six cents per diem? And may compute that
half million passengers represent $4,000 in sim
gle day. Neither does 1t accord with human nature
to suppose that the company will approve of free
bridge for fhe people; that might affect the har-
vestng that has been steadily increasing for the
last forty years
We believe. however, that even with bridges and
tunnels the ferry would still pay, as do the always

ough of Queens is paying 327 the highest city rate

representation in the form OF absolutely essential
municipal requirements? The tone of some edi-
torals and correspondence Is sufficiently exasper-
ating to arouse citizens OF Queens Borough and
many likewise In Manhattan each to shoulder a
