More Patterson Criticism.

Editor Tribune: As have shown
in my last letter Honorable Patter-
sons report on the comparative con-
ditions OF education in Ireland, as
existing in the cities of Dublin and
Belfast. and also his report on edu-
cational conditions in general. is pure
fiction gotten up for the purpose of
weaving tissue of falsehoods to
slander the people of Ireland. In his
slander of the students at Trinity Col
lege he has not told how that at
the Worlds Fair. where they en-
tered for prizes in many lines of edu-
cational endeavor. they compared
more than favorably with the stu.
dents Of American colleges and the
colleges of the world, winning many
prizes: nor that the professors OF
the Dublin universities enjoy wider
reputation for learning in their re-
spectiye domains than do the pro-
fessors OF British colleges. OF Trini-
ty College. Professor Ball is consider

may add that Marconi. inventor Of
wireless telegraphy. was pupil of
Professor Malloy. He is a grandson
of the Irish distiller. Jameyson. and

ton OF Irish beauty than has Hon.
Patterson, for he chose bride on

the progress that was being made IN
the sale of the company's holdings
east of town. and also as to The
truth of rumors to the effect hat
some OF the land was being sold a,
exhorbitant prices. Mr.. Mcintyre de-
MED that any such price as had cen
reported was being received. Nnmer-
GUS tracts had already been sold TO
prospective actual settlers, some OF
whom were Already making prpara-
tions TO build upon and impros sSheir
holdings. The price varied accord
ing to location. principally due to the
difficulties that would be encounter
ed in irrigating the land. Prices
ranged from s25 per acre up. with
an average price of about s65 per
acre. Mr.. Mcintyre stated that il
could be figured out by pure.y
mathematical calculation that the
excellent water supply and would
make the lands in the Otero lrri-
cation district the most desirable in
the valley, and he particular re-
quested that every citizen get busy
and boost for the district and the
and Loost for the district and the
reservoir upon every possible oc-
casion. He realized the fact that the
Otero had been so long without water
that very few people had any faith
in the project. but now that salvation
was at hand it was up TO the people
to change their mood and boost
always.
Mr.. McNeen gave short report
upon the work that had been done
