PAULHAMUS DEFENDS
GOVERNMENT PLAN
Replies to. Criticisms of North
= Yakima Fruit Dealers
Says Stand Pat

The following letter has been sent
to the apple growers Of the Northwest
by w. H. Paulhamus, chairman of the
executive committee Of the Northwest
Fruit Growers, council.
My attention has been called to an
interview with three well known buy
ers and distributors of fruit in North
Yakima, in which each Of these good
firms attacks the government plan of
helping distribute the Pacific North
west apples.
From what can gather, the only
complaint made is that the govern
ment plan does not permit of a cash
buyer getting what fruit he desires
by paying cash for it.
In my Judgment this is yelled at
tack.
Every grower in the state of Wash
ington knows that any man, who has
the price, can buy anything that we
have for sale, if the price is right.
and am sure that any plan that the
government presents will not preclude
the selling of fruit to any person who
desires to buy, and has the money to
buy with.
If the growers will recall, the
Growers council movement took care
of the cash buyer, and yet these same
three gentlemen criticised the grow
ers' plan just as severely as they are
now condemning the government plan.
In my judgment, if the plan of the
government did not include clause
covering. the cash buyer, the three
gentlement in question would prob
ably be able to find some other hole
thru which they could criticize.
Plans are Similar
AS near as can digest, the govern
ment plan is very similar to the
Growers council plan, with such i'm
provements as our years experience
taught US were necessary. I believe
that every fruit grower of the Pacific
Northwest should be extremely thank
full to the department of markets, for
its most generous help, in trying to
bring about more orderly control Of
the fruit industry.
For the sake of argument, let us
conclude that the government plan is
not good plan, for the reason set
forth by the three Yakima houses, but
what per centage Of the crop, even
Of Yakima county alone, would these
three houses purchase? Is the apple
industry entirely safe in the hands of
these three organizations, or is the
volume of business that they would do
very small, compared to the total vol
ume necessary to do, that their COM
plant should be given very little con-
sideration?
It is not my desire to unduly crit
icise any person connected with the
fruit industry, but / sometimes be-
lieve that we should have "Fool Kill
or" capable Of discerning the differ
once between honesty Of purpose and
selfish desire.
Disaster Threatens
The fruit industry of the Pacific
Northwest Is second only to the lum-
~ industry, ana + Il is not put upon
/. staple basis results will be disas-
t-sus not only to ~ growers them
selves, but to u Sntie Northwest.

AUGUSTINE BIRRELL.

The late secretary for Ireland
was asked to explain why he did
not inform the Government con-
corning the probability of an out
break and of the dissatisfaction
among the people. The secretary
made answer: "a jackdaw sit
ting in the cabinet yelling Ire
land, Ireland,' will receive as much
attention as any one who sought
to report to British cabinet the
true condition of affairs in Ire
land" The whole history of Brit
ish oppression and intrigue so far
as parliamentary reform or Home
Rule is concerned is we'll summed
up in the answer of Mr.. Birrell.

this decree and enforce it's judgment.
Let that conscience of civilization then
see to it that the decision of Ireland
be enforced, that the system which
she establishes shall be recognized
throughout the world, and the Won
derful potential of wealth of that
island, that intellectual wealth, that
spiritual wealth attested by these men
who have been killed, the extent of
which has only been indicated by their
enterprises, shall be made available to
the whole human family, to lead civil
lization to greater ideas, to lead hui
manity to nobler conception of the
relation that should govern men with
each other, and the true purposes for
which government is established-to
improve the conditions of mankind.

ASOUITH'S VISIT.

The public is anxiously await
ing for some results of Asquith's
much heralded visit to Ireland.
Asquith first announced that he
had forced the Irish people to &C
cept him as member of the Irish
Privy Council. Asquith visited
the garrisons and the detention
camps to learn the true conditions
in Ireland. He went to Belfast
where he was received with much
Indifference and decided to return
to Dublin where he could force
his friendship with more success.
What he has accomplished no one
knows. What he tried to accom-
plish is even greater mystery.
1t is sufficient to say that Max
we'll rules Ireland at the present
time with English soldiers, that
Ireland is under martial law, that
Instantaneous in Ireland have
been daily arrested and that moth
ing has been heard about the prob
ability of putting Home Rule into
effect.

"A FOOL THERE WAS"

Asquith went to Ireland to
learn the cause of Ireland's dis
content-and find solution.
Every school boy knows the cause
and the solution. The real ques-
ton he sought to answer was
why did the "Defense of the
Realm Act" fail to subdue the
Irish people and what further
measures of severity are neces-
sary. The last question is an
swered satisfactorily to him
martial law.
The Rebellion has given notice
to the world that English rule can
never be established in ireland.
Where England has granted meas
ures of liberty she has received
loyalty. We have Canada at our
doors as an example. Repression
is the fruitful mother of revolu-
ton and rebellion. We speak of
Canada but there were rumblings
and mutterings of rebellion there
until the government conceded.
Ireland has protested with the
blood of her best. Shall it be to
no purpose? England was given
through the recent rebellion a
chance to atone. But Irish blood
and Irish liberty seemed more to
her liking-she took both-and
now man like Asquith, with a
lie on his lips-attempts to insult
the intelligence of the civilized
world by going to ireland an
nouncing as his purpose the desire
to find out what the trouble is
about.

IRELAND's CONTRIBUTION

sometimes [ wonder whether
God has not kept Ireland from be-
ing a nation in order that she
might contribute the larger share
to the growth, to the greatness, to
the glory of the newer lands and
newer peoples, who, today form
the foremost countries in the
world"
This statement was recently
made by Archbishop Mundelein
of Chicago. The thought contains
a certain element of melancholy
beauty, but even his Grace does
not contend that an English par
lament is necessary agency in
such divine scheme to distribute
Irish faith, piety and learning
among the nations of the world.

What terrible gloom has been
cast over American pro-British
synpathizers. The rebellion in
Ireland has been responsible. I'm
der no circumstances can England
regain what she has lost through
her treatment of Ireland. The
sensibilities of liberty-loving Am
orleans have been shocked, even
the metropolitan daily press con-
fessed its embarrassment in deal
ing with the question and finally
denounced England's treatment
of Ireland and admitted that she
has Numbered. The Dublin Re-
bellion has removed any possibil-
ity of this country siding with
England in her warfare against
Germany's submarine policy. The
fruitful benefits of which to Great
Britain were over-capitalized,
Irish-Americans everywhere have
noted the attendant results of
Britain's latest dealings with the
Irish people.

Go" AND "48 /"

Surely there was Something
rotten in the state of Denmark, f"
when men of culture, such as were
the recent leaders of the Irish re-
bellion, exchanged the pen of the
writer and the chair of the teacher
tor the sword and the barricade.
Life to them was as sweet, and
as promising in their daily callings
as 1T was to any set of men SIM
llarly circumstanced-they had no
thirst for blood, no craving for
bloodshed. 1t is beside the ques-
ton to call them dreamers-for
have not dreamers added some of
the most glorious chapters to the
annals OF human cndeavor? Their
faith was sealed with their blood,
no greater proof can be given.
lhe story can not now be told
and distorted are the
accounts we receive. These men
died for ireland. History must
render a verdict in their favor.

The Treasure Of the Gael

The road runs inland between the
seaport towns Of Wicklow and Ark
low. On either side stands low
hedge, and beyond the hedge there
lie green, undulating fields. To the
east little ridge crowned by trees
shuts off the passenger from all view
of the sea. On the west the fields roll
gently upwards to the sleeper heath

mountains still keep their Gaelic
names, Lugnaquilla and Djouce and
Croghan, but the towns on the coast
and by the river mouths, Arklow and
Wicklow, took strange names from
the Danish conquerors, and bear them
to this day. To one turning his back
to the mountains, the country wears
almost an English appearance; only
the luxuriant crops of thistles and
ragweed in the fields and the occa.
sional melancholy thatches of yellow.

l was bicycling along this road and
had left Arklow five miles behind me
when l caught sight of an old man
coming in my direction. He wore a
black, wide-brimmed felt hat and a
long brown coat and carried in one
hand a baggy umbrella, in the other a
brown paper parcel. AS came near
he shifted the parcel into the hand
that held the umbrella, stood still in
the middle of the road, took off his
hat and looked at me. I knew well
enough what he was going to say, but
for the sake of a certain dignity in
his attitude and his manifest old age
I dismounted.
Gould you spare me copper or
two, your honor" he said, "for a poor
deserving old man."
glanced at him again and saw
that, Notwithstanding his overcoat and
hat and umbrella, his clothing was
patched and torn and that his boots
were only held together by pieces of
string.

This Republic of ours has never
asked for men in vain. Mothers
have given of their sons, wives
their husands, and maidens their

country was heard. Many never
returned. Many came back to

bodies in the homes of their youth.
Many, by divine protection, re-
turned strong and able as when
they took their departure. But
in every case the sacrifice was

ton into the degradation of igno-
rance.
And, moreover, worse than all,
where it was found difficult to get a
verdict or to get proofs against a man
that he was Catholic and thus for
felt his land to the crown, the devilish
ingenuity of the penal laws was
reached when a son was authorized to
dispossess his father by proving that
he was Catholic, and If the heir
would not do it, then the next of kin
down to any relation to the fortieth
generation. So that cupidity and ava
rice were enlisted with the means to
destroy flial piety and friendship and
every element of good will and good
fellowship that should exist between
families and between men. With
plighted faith, ousting the people from
every chance to cultivate their soil,
deliberately reducing them to igno-
rance, inflaming them against each
other by every appeal to the basest
quality that could possibly be awak-
ened by selfish ingenuity in legislation
that is the legacy that England has
transmitted to Ireland!
That is the story that we we're
ready to forgive. That is the long
tale of wrong and outrage which we
were hoping would be wiped out in
the better relation that we were led to
hope this generation would witness.

 Conversation at table in the mess started and ended with mud. A train officer knew his business in coping with the trick, adhesive Serbian body wanted to knowetaoicmfwyph ''gupbo" to the last detail. Some one wanted to know of him why oxen were better than horses as drausht animals on muddy roads. The ques- toned was @ guard cavalry officer and inwardly resented the slightning tone with which the train" spoke oS horses.
 Simply, explained the train ofl- cer. Due to the construction of the hoofs of both animals. When the horse steps into stif mud. its hoof remains as biz when it is pulled out. as 1t was when set down. The mud. meanwhile, has closed over the hoof, and every time the animals must eX- ert pull of about five kilograms Q0 lbs) to get its foot out. With the OK it is different, because the hoof, being smaller when pulled out than it was when set down. In addi- tion the weight of the body is better distributed in the OK.
 The officer had never before moved anything by means of oxen. But a few days contact with the animal had made him theoretically and practically an expert in the handling of "ox" trains.
 Away from their duties the German officers proved most agreeable com panions, men who could land and ac, cept a joke.
