The New Ireland.

That day has at last dawned for the
Emerald Isle is the belief Of Sir Hor
ace Plunkett, whose book, ireland In
the, New Century" has attracted uni.
versal attention. There has lately been
born among Irishmen he declares, "the
sense that the English misunderstood.
ing Of Ireland is Of far less importance
and perhaps less inexcusable than our
own misunderstanding of ourselves"
Now" says Sir Horace, anglo Irish
history Is for Englishmen to remember,
for Irishmen to forget"
The Irish have shown in their organ
lied opinion a disposition to be pro.
Irish rather than anti English. One
sign Of this Sir Horace finds in the
spirit Of moderation and Cancellation
shown in connection with the wynd
ham land act AS Sir Gilbert Parker
says in commenting on Plunkett's book.
There ia steadily advancing convic.
ton that. great as Is Englands respon
sibiiity for Ireland, still greater is the
responsibility Of Irishmen to solve
some part Of the Irish problem from
within"
Sir Horace deprecates the Irish "list.
lessness and apathy in regard to eco
nomic Improvement, which amounts to
q form Of fatalism, the postponement
Of the tangible and the Immediate for
the nebulous and the grandiose" But
this spirit, he believes, is changing The
material problem is to be worked out
"by cooperation, resettlement, state in.
tervention. the further development Of
manufactures In the towns and partic.
ularly Of the arts and crafts subsidiary
to agriculture In the country" These
things are being resolutely taken hold
Of They are being assisted by the
clannishness Of the Irish character, to
which organized self help comes natu.
raj. They are being propelled by the
mighty spirit Of sentiment which
through the Gaelic league has touched
the secret chord Of Irish nationality"
In short, the hopeful outlook for New
Ireland is based upon ''the happy con.
junction Of economic fact and national
sentiment" T.,
