in the wrong) because they had the

Starving the Children.
1t is anything but pleasure to us
to hold up to public odium the rutiian
ism of even the most depraved classes
in Ireland; but in the line of duty
and however painful and humiliating
it must be done. If, one month ago
any one of our readers had suggested
that such a scene were possible in
any part of Ireland, we would unhesi
tatingly have answered that it was not
possible, for respect for women has
ever been and will ever be the proud
est heritage of our race. But we must
admit that scoundrels are to be found
in Ireland just as they are to be found
in every country in the world, and We
fear that Waterford cannot boast o
monopoly, for if they are beating
girls and women in Mr.. Redmond's
constituency, they are doing all they
can to starve children and babies ir
the national capital.
BY this we mean that ring has
been formed by the men who suppl,
the city's milk, and that now enor
nous prices are being forced from tho
struggling poor of Dublin. These
scoundrels-fOr scoundrels they surel,
are-taking advantage of the war

AS for the Waterford meeting, the
less Mr.. Redmond and his friends re-
fer to it the better: 1t was simply
disgrace to Waterford, and it will take
long time before the sickening men,
ory of girls and women being blud-
geoned by thugs in human shape pass
es away. Mr.. O'Connor was not told
of this fact, perhaps, nor was he told
how the Rev. Vincent Sutherland,
preaching at the Dominican church on
the Sunday following the meeting, and
referring to it, said that on that occa-
sion, as it was public meeting, all
sections had right to be present,
and to express their feelings; but
when two young ladies' ventured to
give utterance to theirs they were as
saulted by strong men, and one wo-
man was severely beaten and driven
from the hall. He had travelled a
great part Of the world, he said, but
there were men in Waterford as coarse
and vulgar and as unreasonable and
unchristian as the aborigines of Pata-
gonia
If the stories of the outrages that
marked that meeting, as published in
the Irish newspapers, be half true,
Father Sutherland does gross injus-
tice to the savages of Patagonia, who
must be gentlemen compared with the
brutal Waterford thugs. Writing to

tached manner. | interviewed him in
his Office on the upper West Side and
the entire interview is practically
given in his own words.
Il learned a great deal of the inner
incidents of the Dublin fight. How
the Irish fought can best be summed
up in the results among the contend
ing forces. The most explicit express
sion is brief. There were fifty Eng
lish soldiers killed to the one Irish
man.
The patriots went to fight inspired
T; by the purest ideals. They gave due
notice of their intentions, wore mill
tary uniforms, observed the laws OF
war and neither disgraced their uni
forms or their cause. Intolerable in
justice and the ignomy of Dublin Cas-
tie rule drove these men to attempt
the ending of it all. In consequence
there is a marked contempt for deatf
all over the country. 1t is infectious

Vice Rector Of beda

The Right Rev. Monsignor George,
ID. d., vice rector of Beda college,
Rome, recently delivered powerful
sermon to large congregation at
Holy Cross church, Liverpool, accord

of that city.
Monsignor George spoke on the
service of God. What were we living
for?" he asked He supposed anyone
knowing their catechism would an
swer that God had placed them here,
given to them an immortal soul, laid
down certain rules of life for them to
follow, told them certain things to
avoid in other words, to do His will,
for which they were promised eternal
happiness. 1t sounded very well in
theory, but how far the practice fell
short of their theory! How was it
their lives would not square with
their theories? Where was the diff

In the first place, said the preacher,
there were some people who felt they

were dissatisfied in the position He
had placed them. God. in His in.
finite wisdom, had distributed the tai.
ents unevenly. He had given some
of them only one talent, and instead
of being grateful and making the best
possible use of it, they harbOred q
grudge against the Almighty. They
forgot that to whom much was given
of him much also was required. Don't
quarrel with the will of God because

Belfast, Ireland, Oct. 20, 1916.-The
daily toll of the submarine carrying
to the bottom of the sea food intended
for the English mouths is fraught
with deadly peril to the people of Ire
land. So said former Lord Mayor
of Belfast and one of the large linen
goods makers to your correspondent.
Both are strong conscriptionists who
aver that England will be justified in
communicating all of the food prod
ucts of Ireland as soon as the subma-
rine warfare threatens a blockade in
the open sea. The navy men say they
can keep the Irish channel open in any
event through destroyers and that the
munition workers of England (3,OOO,.
000) must be fed first.
The high prices are tempting the
people to part with their food. The
finest cattle and lambs are being
stripped from Ireland. The comman
deering of various farm products has
led to more land being used for graz

Good clothing and shoes are scarce

ENORMOUS CORN LOSS.
Interesting Figures Compiled on Ham
iIton County Crop

Interesting Figures Compiled on Ham
ilton County Crop.
Two Webster City business men who
are interested In the corn crop of Ham
ilton county, got together the other
day and attempted to figure out the
monetary loss to Hamilton county re-
sultlng from poor crop this year. They
have probably come close to the truth
with their figures, altho someone may
think he has it figured more nearly cor
rect. .
Their figuring runs something like
this:
Allowing 10000 acres of corn to Ham
ilton county and fifty bushels to the
acre in seasons when there are good
crops, the yield would be 100000
bushels. This year twenty bushels to
the acre was taken as the basis of an
average and twenty bushels to the acre
for 10000 acres gives 100000 bushels.
This many bushels at a fair price of
SO cents per bushel, would amount to
100000. If in good crop season there
were 100000 bushels of corn sold at
so cents per bushel, the value of this
would be $2,25O,O00. The total loss to
Hamilton county would then be the
difference between s2,25O,oO0 and $780,
600 or $1,350,000.
Now there are 1000 farms in Hamil-
ton county and an average loss to each
farm for the poor corn crop would be
$675. OF course the large farms suf-
fered greater loss, and the small
farms suffered in proportion. but the
loss per farm in this county approx
ho ahnvo amount
In spite Of this loss there are fewer
unemployed men in the county than
for many years. Times are really pros
porous business In all lines is fairly
good and prospects never were better.
Be the cause what It may. sthese things
are true.
