70 the Editor of The Sun:

To the Editor of The Sun:
Sir: One of your. correspondents, signing him
self Anglo lister" asks: What would you do
with the contented, prosperous and progressive
section at the northeast of the unhappy land. p
1t may be necessary to explain that this alleged
prosperity is the result of special legislation in
favor of that alien colony. The linen and ship
building industries have been fostered by bountes
and subsidies from the British treasury for the
purpose of giving employment to the population
which has its focus i'll Belfast, while there have
always been special agraran laws for their benefit
In spite of all the privileges accorded them | am
unable to see where their Wanted prosperity and
contehtnent in. If Northeast Ulster is so
happy and contented, why did not anglo Ulster"
usually emigrate. Philadelphia has long been the
mecca of emigrants from happy and contented
Ulster, but fail to see that they are progress
slye than their fellow countrymen who call them
selves Irish without any qualification
| believe that asfree Ireland has room and a
welcome for all her children regardless of race
religion. There would be plenty of work for all in
building up and rehabilitating their beautiful ma
tive land but if they should still persist in regard
ing themselves as Englishmen or Scotchmen-why
they could go home if they didn't choose to live in
Ireland; there should certainly be no strings on
them
During the progress of the Cuban instruction
heard threats of the Spanish colony to withdraw
their business and capital from the island in case
1t succeeded III casting off the yoke of Spain; but
it has been demonstrated that free Cuba has
given them increased prosperity, and we hear no
more of their migration to the Iberian peninsula.
srhe letter today signed "Anglo-Celt" is too
contemplate for serious notice. 1t could only ema
nate from one of those hybrids who are despised
by all three. ]. F. MCCARTHY.

MY barry

l take up a little cambria dress
Trimmed with ruf1es, and edg'd with lace
And dainty cap with cobweb frill
But where is the baby face?
And here is pretty petticoat
Embroidered flannel scarcely worm
And a blue worsted sacque that aunty knit
But where is my baby gone?
There's big rough boy in corduroy pants,
With blue eyes ready to wink
And patch of dirt on his dimpled cheek
A study in india ink.
His strong young arms around my neck,
lie kisses mamma with WILL
And lay down my dainty things with a smile
For he is my baby still.

To the Editor of the Sun-Sir: The answer
to .Why Not Let Ireland OF is that England
never lets anything go of her own volition
Irelands hope for liberty depends, not on Eng
lands good will, but the inherent determine

who have followed the drift of Irish thought and

to hope for Ircland's ultimate freedom The strong

To the Editor of The Sun-Sir: In the event of
Irelands being granted its independence by Eng
land, as suggested in your splendid editorial of
last Sunday, it would be fitting thing to take those
persons who at present worrying about the
future of the contented folks of the north of Ire
land and hammer it into their heads that once upon
time Man, Jesus Christ, came upon earth to
create happiness for all.
This suggestion is made in reply to Anglo
listers" query in the Sun of yesterday, query
that to me seems as narrow-minded as onion
skin is thick He apparently worried about even
the possibility of happiness Ireland in any place
but Ulster.
In reference to his statement concerning that
prosperous contented section perhaps "Anglo-
Ulster has overlooked a recently published for
cgn note in the Sun, in which it was stated that
Just 5000 persons are being fed daily III Bel
fast b. the Salvation Army. But who has ever
heard of an "Anglo-Usterman? 1t is tough

To the Editor of the Sun-Sr Those CONVEX
SAINT with the inner thoughts of the present Con-
seryative-U nionst British ministry tell that
if it were not that Great Britain feared that if
plete separation were granted Ireland might fall
a prey to some powerful and hostile nation, the
ties of union would be broken without further edo,
This being the case, the heretofore veXed question
seems to me easy Of solution Let Great Britain
give Ireland independence and then let Ireland
ask to become state in the American Mon.
With the present harmony existing between the
two great English speaking powers and Ireland's
friendly feeling toward the people of the United
States all would heartily acQuiesce in the happy
solution of problem which has caused many
centuries of hcartburnings
Irish statesmen well know that should Ireland
become state of union her people would en-
joy the largest possible measure of home rule, and
furthermore, no power. however strong or hostile,
would attempt to wrest her from the union of
American states.
With the Irish question solved in a satisfactory
manner to all concerned nothing then would be
in the way of an alliance between the United States
and Great Britain, and such an alliance. as you
suggest, would result i'll each countrys saving
many millions annually iii naval expenditures.
With the two countries acting in concert, no cX-
listing coalition Of sea power could prevail against
the navies of Great Britain and the United States.

AGNES BUCKLEY.
The time is certainly very long. Agnes, since
Aunt Busy heard from you, but she is happy to be
remembered after three years.
She appreciates the kind words, too dear, and
is earnestly glad if she has influenced you in the
slightest way in your treatment of your brothers.
Be kind to the boys Agnes because they
very dear good fellows Aunt Busy is sure, and re-
member that life is much happier for a girl who
has good brothers than for one who Is alone. y on
will appreciate the boys much more in the future
time. Agnes. so be kind, gentle and loveabfe now
and also patient. Boys not angels, and we
do not want them TO be angels. We would lose
them then, dear.

of boy the world needs.
Aunt Busy thinks the world will be better for

Aunt Busy can find with you is signing your name

rancine It must have laughed at her reliance up
on the friendship of d limited number of Anglo
Americans who come to her aid only because they
think that By a loud cry of Anglo-Saxonism they
maintain their own prestige in America and keep
themselves predominant among other American
races.
The friendship which England found in Amcri
ga was a pr6of of Anglo American weakness which
should have led her to plead at once for the sym
pathv of the Irish race When Anglo-Americans
call themselves Anglo Saxons they show tnat they
are in q minority and no longer look upon them
selves as the American people. If they were in Il
majority they would call this country theirs. If
this land were their own they would want no other
name but that of their nation. They would call
themselves nothing but Americans. Tncy would
tell England that they were once Anglo-SaxonS, Tut
that they have been greatly changed for ae better

best of them give proof of
Many of them have made some such reps. Eng
lands sympathizers are only those who think that
they should foster racial feelings for their own
benefit This is the debt OF the friendship which
England says will preserve the peace of the world.
1t could not preserve the peace of village Shc
could not raise single company of soldiers her
defence among all her present sympatnizers in the
United States When her friends are SO few and so
unworthy she is sadly IN need of the sympathy Of
the Irish race
England was never so foolish, her poor English
dulness was never deserving of pity as when she
set out to awaken an Anglo-Saxon class spirit i1N
democratic America. She got little response from
Anglo Americans. Racial feelings will never lead
very many of them to forsake their traditions She
brought upon her self the i'll feeling of other Amer
leans races. She gave Irish Americans new cause
for complaint apart from their sympathy with their
brethren in ireland. She nsulted the Irish mere
as she insulted them abroad. She has declared to
the world that the Irish in America are an Ameri-
can peasantry which is to be ruled and sent to
by Anglo American aristocracy. This is the
opinion she gives civilization of the position OF the
Irish race In the United States
She has little to gain and much to lose By stir
