Of the, good st. Patrick who lived 70
long ago, and they retail It Just a. I
am telling 1t to you today.
When we are on our big boat re-
turning again to America We can zee
a group Of islands called the Aran

last story Of St Patrick. for some one
will tell u this tale:
DO you see that island over there!
It in twenty-nine miles west Of Galway

for you reach America. Yes. there It
is, 1t Is called Irish More or Aran
More Well. they do say that when St
Patrick drove the snakes from Ireland
there was one mighty monster that
swan far away and at last reached
this island of 'Aran More and hid in
a hole in the rock. See there on the
west side OF the island that deep dark
hole in the rock. Well, tits there that
serpent will sleep till doomsday. And
they do say that since the blessed St
Patrick sent the snakes from Ireland

Ireland it will die"
Our boat brings US home to America

TUE sDAY, DECEMBER %, 1914

IT is NOW apparent that President
Wilson is not as much the leader OF his
party as he used to think he was. In
the distribution of patronage, he has
stepped jauntily over the heads of sena-
tors and representatives until they have
become tired of the performance. The
straw that broke the camel's back was
his appointment of John b. Lynn to be
United States attorney for the Western
District OF New York. Senator O'Gor-
man had recommended another man for
the place, but the Presidents son-in-law
is said to have asked for Lynn, and the
appointment was made, but the Senate
promptly turned it down.
And now comes Senator MARITIME, OF
New Jersey, who says that he Will con-
test the Presidents choice for collector
Of internal revenue in the southern part
of the state, and Senator Reed, OF Mis-
souri,, whose recommendations OF post
master for Kansas City, a district attor-
ney and collector of internal revenue for
the Kansas City district, have been
ignored by the President.
The senators have made up their
minds that they will have something to
say about the distribution of patronage
in their respective bailiwicks. In other
words, their backs are up, and the Presi-
dents attempt to jump over them, is
going to be failure.-Stute Gdz9tte.
