HYPOTHETICAL ARGUMENTS.

When the question of self govern
ment for Ireland is being discussed
the opponents of Home Rule are
prone to lay great deal of stress
on the intolerance they imagine will re.
suit on the part Of the Catholic ma
jority. Statistics do not prove that
the Catholics of Ireland are intolerant
toward their Protestant brethren.
They rather show that Catholics are
decidedly tolerant and not infrequently
that in Ulster where the Protestants
Iare in the majority the latter are
prone to acts of intolerance. Else
where is this issue we publish re-
port emanating from Belfast which
shows how Catholic girls working in
factories there are frequently molest-
ed by their fellow workers of other
faiths.
But the question of Catholic intoler-
ance is purely speculative and there
is not the slightest evidence at pres
ent to show that it will ever need
to be considered. Why then must we
listen to such specous arguments
based on the theory of probability
when there are so many weighty
facts at hand to occupy our attention.
Whatever harm might result from
putting the government in the control
!of the Catholics the fact is irrepar-
able harm has been done by the gov
eminent that exists in Ireland today.
In a recent speech on Home Rule
John Redmond gave description of
the kind of government under which
Ireland is suffering We quote this
striking passage:
~ say we have the most costly
Government in the world, said Mr..
Redmond The cost per head of the
population of the civil government OF
iIreland-and | am quoting now from
official statistics-is double what it is
lin Scotland. Since 1S94-coming to
quite a recent date-the taxation Of
Ireland has increased by over = 10,-
100000. and the population has gone
down by quarter of million.
Scotland today has larger popu-
ation than Ireland. Listen to these
figures: Scotland has today-these are
official figures for 1908, the latest that
could obtan-Scotland has 93S Gov
eminent officials assessed to Income
Tax whose salaries are $1,575,0OO a
year. Ireland, with a similar popula-
ton, has Government officials to the
number of 1850, with salaries
amounting to $7,l75,OO0. The police
|of Ireland cost exactly three times
what the police in Scotland cost, and
l am putting it mildly when l say
that all criminal statistics show that
as far as serious crime is concerned,
Ireland, at any rate, is not worse
than Scotland. The cost of the gov
eminent of Ireland is double the cost
of Belgium. Holland, Switzerland, and
every small country in Europe. But
1t is not only the most costly Govern
ment-that would be bad enough
but 1t is the most inefficient"
Here.we have facts of existing evils,
not possibilities or even probabilities.
If we were to extract from the argu-
ments against Home Rule all those
Of a hypothetical nature there would
be nothing left. Let us stick to facts!

George " and his Queen have adopt
ed Queen Victora's rule of excluding
divorced persons from their court
If the divorce-scarred soul of Henry
! VIII could return to the scene of Its
Dissertation now, what change it
would behold! And yet-Henry with
all his sins was the founder of the
Church OF which George V is the
head. A Protestant historian called
Henry VIII. the most cruel, capricious
self-willed and remorseless tyrant that
ever sat upon the English throne. He
might have added many other adj
jectives in the superlative degree and
still not give complete picture of
the Nervousness of that nronarch's
character. But it is good to know at
least that the time has come when the
laXity which he fathered is despised
by his successors. If divorces were
more generally rejected from good So
ciety they would think more seriously
before flying to troubles they know
something of.

BEFORE COLUMBUS
A Neglected But Fascinating Chapter
of Irish History.

of Irish History.
One of the most neglected but fasci-
mating chapters of Irish history is the
pre-Columbian discovery of America,
says John Hurley in the Chicago Citi-
zen. Nearly all the original names
were Irish names, but some were
translated into Latin, Norwegian and
other languages. Iceland was the half.
way station in those early times. 1t
was 1ngolf, the Morse Earl, who drove
the Irish Guides out of Ireland in
875; those were Irish priests of the
Order of St. Columbielle, but were
called pupae or papae by the Morse.
St. Dicuil Dutch Cobh-Flath),
pupil of st. Columbanus, and one of
the most learned men in Europe,
states that Iceland was peopled by
Scots until driven out by the savage
Mortimer. Many of them went to
Great Iceland. for they are often men,
toned by the Morse as papae in their
voyages to Irland-it- Mikia. The Irish
were closely related to the Norwe-
gians, whose country was called Nor
vega Norumbega, N'Tornuadh, Hy-
peria, ETC., in ancient times. Many of
the voyagers were partly Irish, whom
they liked better than they did the
Swedes or Danes.
Prof. Rapin states that Irish was
spoken in Florida in 800, while Magus
Hibernia was on the maps as early
as 1909. 1t was variously named
Mikin-in-Eri, Irland-it-Makin, Irland-et-
-Cabra, Mikle-Ireland, Estotiland
(Scotland), ETC., all meaning Irish
land, or Great Ireland. El-Ganamh
or Ola Gnamh meant extreme or far
distant strand, the Tir Atalanta, Elysi-
UNI, Great Western Country, or West
ern Eden. the Tir na-n-oge Gland of
perpetual YOUTH, Land of promise and
many poetic names as Maghfein
(Fairy plain).
Magh Mealla or Honey Plain, Inis
Avalon or Alivalian was the name of
an island, and was one of the titles
of Lord Baltimore. Many of those
names are. indicative. of tropical is
land or country, as Land of Birds.
Isle of Birds, Paradise of Birds, Land
of Talking Birds, Vale of Delicacies,
Isle of Flocks.. Terrestrial Paradise,
Terra Papagalli, or Land of Parrots.
The marine chart, of Martinus Valid
seemulled, published in 1907, had on it
"Brassillia sivi Terra Papagilli." 1t
was in that year that he first put
America" on the map, which is also
a Gaelic or Indian name. Almaric
or Armoric in Latin ETHEL Marus
Mara the sea-, hence Merck, Ameri-
go, ETC., while the Indian name Meri-
cabo meant Land of the Sea Breeze"
according to q learned Frenchman,
the name first given to South America.
Tir BRASIL. Hy Brasil, Terra Brasilus,
was probably so called after an Irish
Saint or king of the Clan Brasil or
Rath Brasil West of Brazil Muller
put Terra Nova, or New Land.
Grone-landt, or Greenland, was on
the map as far back as 1927, and then
was only a translation of Tir Glass

land was probably part of Canada.

Here large buying orders were received as a result of these reports to be met by selling from the other sections of the south where the crop prospects continue good and from local sources, who are discouraged at the outlook for trade at home and abroad, should we not have rain soon in Texas we may expect many further re- ports of the result of the hot dry wealth CT prevailing over the southwest

Wheat Longs Discouraged By Good Reports From
 Canada

Chicago. August 14-The grain markets sagged today and closed near the bottom, September wheat BQ1c, September corn 1Hc and September oats 7sc under Satur- day. the selling coming mostly from tired holders. Provisions were steady.
 Favorable weather and better crops re. ports from the Canadian northwest dis couraged wheat longs, who did not unload last week. The larger speculators are said to have sold out before the close Satur- day Cash wheat was relatively firmer. Reports from export concerns were con tradictory, some reporting Liverpool try ing to resell Chicago hard winter wheat and others that they were receiving bids. The seaboard reports five loads soid Tor export While worlds shipments were ,,o00, ,0D bushels less than last years, they were larger than had been expected.
 1'hreshing returns were generally satisfac- tory. Argentina wired that crop prospects were very favorable. but that there was strong market because of light arrivals from the country.
 Reports from the corn belt were gener- ally glowing. although there was not wanting a pessimistic note to the effect that no amount of good weather, such as was reported today, could rescue the crop from the damage suffered in July The more influential longs, however, preferred to give the crop a chance and prices de- clined under their sales. Cash corn dropped from 1911ko. September sold be- tween 651sc and 63%c.
 The oats market was unimportant. The cash article declined A@1ac in the sample market and futures dropped in sympathy with wheat and corn. September prices ranged between 41s4c and 41c, the close being at the bottom.
 Provisions were steady despite heavier run of hogs than had been expected. Sep tember pork and ribs closed unchanged at s17.2O and $9.17h respectively; lard. 21ac down at s9.r1a.

 Father john Guinan of Salt Lake City will assist Father Rapier in the parish work Father Dubois will also be an assistant pastor and 1t is possible that Father Ralph Hebert will go from At anta to Washington. Father Rapier succeeds Very Rev. John E. Gum, 8. M. D. D., bishop elect of Natchez who is here on visit to the Marist society and who made the announcements last right.
 Tn speaking of his coming consecration Father Gum said he hoped that the archbishop and Bishop Kelsey of Savan- nah would make it possible for him to be consecrated in Atlanta, which he added was an ideal Catholic parish.
