Special Cable TO The Tribune.
DUBLIN. Aug. 27.-The brewers anc
distillers in Ireland are face to face with
a peril which far outwcighs the hailed
Lloyd George budget. and they are at a
loss as to how to meet IL. 1t is the
catch my PAL temperance movement
which started some months ago In Ulster
and Is rapidly spreading throughout the
island, Already il numbers more than
10000 members in Ulster and Is growing
with such rapidity that II already has
seriously cut down the consumption oi
beer and spirits, with the apparent like
lihood that in some communities the sale
OF their alcoholic beverages will be wiped
out completely.
Great Temperance Move.
One Of the most remarkable temperance
demonstrations ever held In Ireland took
place recently at Baronscourt, the scat

members from districts an over North
Tyrone and part OF Mid Tyrone attend

II was started by a spark, so to speak.
from passing train. and that spark had
set the whole Ulster prairie on fire He
believed that not only would Ulster be
affected, but the whole OF the three
kingdoms would be stirred to the depths
by the movement

convey the brooch. When Queen Mary
wore Catch My Pal brooch 1t would
become the fashion and every lady in
the land would do the same. The huge

In Western Isles,
There is a situation in the Western
Isles which would delight the soul Of
Charles Lever. Futile attempts have
been made 10 collect rates from the pco
pie Of Aran. Valcntia, and other Islands
off the mainland, but the police. or saiSh
diuri dublin (black soldicrs), az they are
called. have been unable TO land and
have returned In their boats with the
rate collector. accompanied by the Jeers
Of the recalcitrant islanders. The people
of Aran are determined TO maintain their
though, as In the past it will be a blood
less battle and they will probably mere
" push the boats off as they approach.
Their attitude Is rather that OF the Or

friend "As I'm saying. Willie. II IL comes
10 war and you and me finds ourselves
on opposite sides, I will shoot over your
head and you Will shoot over mine, for,
man dear. I'd be ]oath TO kill ye.' Gal
way county council has been giving the
subject much consideration, and at the
usual quarterly meeting a collector was
appointed after much discussion. One
applicant for the post stated that he was
"a strong man, five feet eleven In
height" THAT is the man We want"
observed the chairman, amid loud
laughter.
