Citations in the District will be asked IL they

The bill IN question provides that ali

the District shall be furnished with a

ability by practical examination and that
sixty days after the passage of the bill 1t
will be unlawful for any person to engage
in such work without having a license
based on an examination.
Plumbing Inspector Davis, in passing
upon the matter, said that he sees no ne

DUBLIN, May 27.-The action of the To-
cal government board in refusing to sane
ton the appointment of Mr.. Hobbs by the
county council of Galway as a poor rate
collector, on the ground that he had been
convicted under the coercion act of unlaw-
ful assembly, Is causing no end of adverse
comment. 1t Is regarded as revival of

The alleged offense for which Mr. Hobbs
was imprisoned was Illegal assembly. The
Right Hon. John Burns. NJ p. a member of
the cabinet and president of the English
local government board, was convicted
sentenced and imprisoned for the same Of
Tense.
Mr.. Hobbs, ]. P. and chairman of the
district council, was charged with being
one OF number who protested against the
letting of grazing Land on the eleven
months system as calculated to perpetuate
agricultural congestion In Ireland. This
protest was in express accordance with the
policy of the land act, which put forth as
its chief object the redistribution of the
great grazing lands to small holders There
was no congestion of violence of any kind
by any person in the assembly, and the po-
lice expressly stated there was no disturb
ance in the districts. 1t is claimed that it
is hardly fair to make Mr. Burns presi-
dent OF the local government board and to
discriminate against Mr.. Hobbs for a SINH

DEFENDER OF CIGARETTE.
Organ Of Medical Profession Protest.
Against Legislation.

Special Cablegram to The Star.
LONDON, May 23.-The much-abused Gig
arctic finds strong defender in the Prac-
titioner one Of the principal organs Of the
medical profession, which protests against
the threatened 'grandmotherly legislation"
about cigarette smoking in lines which have
already proved ineffective In the United
States.
There the prohibition of the cigarette has
led boys who smoke to exchange their mild
indulgence in paper favored with tobacco
for the flercer joys of cigar and the pipe.
Probably. the Practitioner states, DR.. Mac
Namara's bill. If it becomes law, will have
the same effect here
ut Is not easy for those who know any
thing Of the action Of tobacco on the hu-
man frame to understand the horror with
which so many worthy persons regard the
cigarette" declares the expert journal.
THAT smoking in excess is not good for
boy or man or woman is a matter as to
which all are agreed. AS has often been
pointed out, the cigarette is more injurious
than the cigar or the pipe, because 1t is
more insldious.
But to ban the cigarette utterly because
1t may be abused is simply foolish. An
amazing amount of rubbish is talked about
the matter by Incorporate enthusiasts
THE anti-tobaccO situation, like some lat
ter-day propagandas. has its origin In the
mistaken notion that the rule of healthy
life must In everything be adapted not to
the average man, but to the weaker ves-
sels.'

one Of the stupidest. The system Is the
negation of education.
It liz the purpose Of the Gaelic League,
continued the speaker. to counterfeit this
tendency by establishing In the minds OF
the Irish people at large consciousness Of
their race history and pride in their lit
erature and language.
Two-thirds Of the land Of Ireland is owned
by English speaking people. numbering
three-fourths Of the population, and 1t has
been the aim Of the national board of edu-
cation there. as well az with the 10000
families who still speak Gaelic, the speaker
maintained, to prevent any knowledge OF
either the race history or language, The
request that one-one hundred and fiftieth
of the tax paid for education be devoted to
fostering the national tongue had been de-
MED. The Gaelic League. organized by
"nobodies as volunteer movement" had
taken up the matter in the interest OF the
character of the people.
DR.. Hyde maintained that to awaken In
people the pride of race, language and lit
erature, Is of practical commercial value,
and the influence of learning a hard Ian

is incalculable. 1t will make good citizens,
he said, and even In this country the bet

the language as a counter influence on a

city in which to congregate. It's gathering
point is America. Already the influence of
the league is telling against emigration.
and the latest reports show that for the
first time in silky years, since the great
famine, the birth rate in Ireland has ex-
ceeded the death rate and emigration COM
bined.
DR.. Hyde declared that he Is not poll
tictan. but that he believes that an Irish
education Is better for one who Is to live
in Ireland than any other training that can
be offered.
