ASQUTTH CALLS ON
lRISHMEN FOR AID
British Premier Given Tremendous
Ovation in Dublin When He APP
pears to Summon Erin.
EMPIRE WITH GOVERNMENT
People United Through All Lands
Under Union Jack 90 Defend
Principle vital TO Civ
IIiEation.

DUBLIN CVia LondonJ Sept. 2s.-Prem-
Ter Asquith appeared at the Mansion
house here tonight for the purpose. as
he expressed Il in the opening OF his
speech. as head Of the kings govern
ment to summon loyal and patriotic Ire
land to take her place In defense OF our
common cause"
The prime minister received a tremen-
dous welcome when he appeared at the
Mansion house with John e. Redmond,
the Irish leader. and the earl of Aber-
deem lord lieutenant OF Ireland.
Great crowds gathered in the streets
Of Dublin and cheered the nationalist
volunteers who, armed with rifles and
bayonets. acted as a guard of honor.
The prime minister's opening words
aroused the greatest enthusiasm. He
went on to say that there had been wars
with regard to which there was a d.
versity OF opinion, but that was not the
case today. Today he declared. through
out tho empire without distinction of
creed. party or race. climate or class or
section. the people were united in de-
Tending the principle OF maintaining in
terests which were vital not only to the
British empire, but to all that is worth
any thing in civilization and the future
progress OF mankind. whether Great
Britain succeed or fail. But" exclaimed
he, I'VE are not going to fail"
Cav ne M Higher Cause.
There could not be any higher cause"
said the premier than the vindioation OF
international good faith and protection
of the weak against the strong and those
who preached q practical religion of
force. Germany was the real respons-
ible factor in this war. There was moth
ing in the quarrel, such as 1t was be-
tween Austria and Servia, that could not
be settled by pacific means, but for the
fact that the judgment Of those guiding
and controlling the German policy the
hour had come to strike the blow which
had been long deliberately prepared for.
"In their hands," declared Mr.. As
quith, lay the choice between peace and
war, and their election was for war"
Blacklist Pages of War History.
The invasion of Belgium and Franco"
said the prime minister. constituted the
blacklist pages of was sombre history.
England had worked to the last 1or
peace.
In his appeal to Irishmen he said he
was backed by Irishmen OF all parts of
the empire and the world.
THE old animosities are dead" he de-
clared. What great Britain asks what
she believes Ireland is ready to give, is a
free-will offering of free people"
Mr.. Redmond. who followed, said he
had promised the archbishop OF Maltnes
that Ireland would bring her arms and
strength to avenge Louvain.
1T Is Irelands duty to fight" declared
the Irish nationalist leader. Great
Britain has kept faith with Ireland and
Ireland will keep faith with Great Brit
ain"

Lincoln Beachey should draw us a

and we couldn't hear a sound of his ma

no one had any idea where he was. Then
after a while we heard his machine buzz
zing away off in another direction. We
looked up and could just see him a mile
or more away from the cloud we saw
him enter
Soon he came back over the fair
grounds, still thousands of feet in the
air. 1t was then that he turned side
ways, made his great drop of nearly a
thousand feet, then turned the machine
and coasted down on the air, made the
loops, flew upside down and did all the
other things that you couldn't get me to
do with him unless you chained me in
and chloroformed me-"

there seemed a feeling for the Progress

together and try and accomplish
something in the way of electing Re-
publican state administration this fall.

brought about Without unison be-

Last Saturday the boys and girls

there From all reports. they were
the most interesting games of the
season. Our girls added another
scalp to their large collection, the
score standing % to Is.
most exciting of any they have play
ed At the start, Gunnison team
threw two baskets but our boys soon
came alive" with the result that the
score at the end of the first half was
1414. Then luck. leagued with chance
took a hand in the game and played
for Gunnison. The consequence was
two well-nigh impossible field baskets
thrown by Gunnison. On one in
stance, Mower of the Gunnison team
threw the ball backward over his
shoulder and it went thru the basket.
At another time. the ball was thrown
so high that it struck a light in the
ceiling and was deflected at such an
angle that it fell through the basket.
The Delta team lost by only the two
baskets, the score at the end of the
game standing 30-34 in favor of Gun
nison.
Last Friday evening. the Hotchkiss
boys basketball team of the eighth
grade played the Delta eighth grade
at the armory hall. but at the end of
the game, the Hotchkiss boys discoy.-

them, and so effectively that the re
sulting score was 24-15 in favor of
Delta. There was also a game be-
tween the Freshmen girls of the high
school and the eighth grade girls
team. The Freshmen team was vic
