INQUIRY AFARcE and
MEANLY LIMITED

Writing to the Press ON the Porto
bello shootings, Sir Francis Vane says
that the commissions report was as
extended in it's conclusions as it's
terms of reference permitted. Very
grudgingly the inquiry was granted;
very meanly it was limited in the
grand. He proceeds:
&"As one who was responsible for
the murders being brought to light, I
feel it necessary to impress on all
freshmen to direct their energies to
insisting on the exposure of the real
|culprits. These were not the smaller
people in the barracks at the time
though Captain ColthuIst, mad or sane,
was the instrument.
1.-THE fact brought out and not de-
MED at the inquiry, that the authori-
ties In Dublin Castle were made aware
~ the crimes having been committed,
and that they then refused to sanction
the arrest of the criminal, places an
entirely different complexion on the
whole matter. When I went to the
;commanding officer, as soon as

PRAYING FOR THE DEAD.

Catholic teaching, once bitterly at
tackled by Professionals, is now becom-
ing popular among them. The Prot
estant Episcopal Bishop of the Phil
ippines, the Rt. Rev. Charles H. Brent,
in recent sermon in st. Louis, &C.
cording to press reports, spoke of
the Catholic doctrine of the invoca-
ton of the saints and the prayers for
the dead. and said a leading Canadian
Methodist Episcopal minister had told
him that as a result of the war thou
sands of Methodists in the Dominion
have been praying for the dead, an
innovation for that denomination. 1T
would do us no harm to study other
creeds," he said, with a view to
adopting the things worth while for
ourselves"

Christmas cateehism
When was Christ born?

When was Christ born?
About 1000 years after the creation
or the world, in the second year of
the reign of the Emperor Augustus.
Why do priests say three Masses
on Christmas Day?
TO indicate the three.fold birth of
Christ, according to the distinction of
His two natures, and also of the graces
which He confers on us.
or what birth does the first Mass
remind us?
1t reminds us of His divine birth
from His Heavenly Father, according
to His divine nature?
The second Mass?
or the temporal birth of Christ of
the Virgin Mary. according to His hui
man nature. ...
The third? ...
or the spiritual birth of Christ in
the hearts of Christians by His sac
raments and grace.
Why does the church have Mass
at midnight on Christmas Day?
First. to indicate that the eternal
birth Of Christ is, for us, hidden in
mystery; second. because Christ was
born at midnight; third, to indicate
that those who lived under the laws
of nature were as yet walking in spir-
itual darkness. ....
Why is the second Mass celebrated
early in the morning, at the break of
day?
First. to indicate that those who
lived under the law OF Moses, like the
shepherds to whom the birth of Christ
was announced, did not have as clear
knowledge of God as we have; Sec
ond, because the shepherds came
about dawn to Bethlehem to adore the
newborn Christ.
Why is the third Mass celebrated at
broad daylight?
To indicate, first, that the birth of
Christ has given us the broad light
of the knowledge of God; second, that
the spiritual birth of Christ takes
place under the influence of His en-.
tightening grace.
Why does the priest kneel at the
altar at the High Mass on Christmas
Day when the Eft incarnatus est Is
sung?
Because the article of the creed
(Credo) contained in the Eft incar.
natus est refers to Christmas Day in
particular.

learned of the events, and asked that
the offender should be restrained,
was met by the reply that this was
not permitted by higher authority.
Those in High Command.
The subsequent events-the first
raid on Mrs. Skeffington's house, the
secretive bricking up of the wall
against which the victims were shot,
the fact that | was ordered to hand
over the command of the defenses to
the criminal, and again the second
raid on the widows house. can only De
explained by conspiracy Of secrecy
in those in high command. This would
have been absolutely confirmed had |
been permitted to disclose what hap
pened when l went to headquarters,
Dublin, to report the events on the list
of May.
This, however, at the commission,
they were very careful to prevent me
from doing; so, in despair Of getting
the criminal restrained from further
evil, | proceeded to London to report
to Lord Kitchener, who, to his eternal
credit, was as much distressed at the
whole matter as myself, and at once
sent off the telegram ordering the ar
rest. May 3. (Colthurst was arrested

There is no doubt at all that the
authorities had not been informed of
the murders when arrived in London,
which seems to suggest gross lapse in
discipline on the part of the authori-
ties in Dublin. But the most serious
effect of this condonement of murder
by the authorities is yet to be told.
1t had been admitted that Dublin Cas-
tie and the headquarters knew of the
crimes at II a. M. on Wednesday,
April 26-one hour and half after
they had been committeeman had re-
fused to sanction Captain Colthurst's
arrest.
Never Inquired Into.
1T is now beyond doubt that at l
p. m. on that day-two hours after
this information had reached them
this criminal officer took force OF
men to Harcourt place, and in the
presence of some dozens of witnesses
shot two disarmed men, one of them
being Councillor O'Carroll.
ho pt1,o TO
Dublin, have never been inquired into;
and, if justice and truth are to pre-
vail, this must be done.
Il am one of those optimists who
believe that will live to see the
democracies of Ireland and England in
true brotherhood; but am convinced
that this result can never be arrived
at while a system of control exists
which devotes its chief energies to
hide, conceal, and support crime when
it is committed against Irish people
by anti-Nationalists."
Again Sir Francis says that he was
officially reproached for having been
seen, after the Portobello crime, in
Mrs. Skeffingtons company, and was
bundled out of Ireland at the earliest
opportunity-then the farcical court
martial
Not the smaller men, not Colthurst
or any other, were responsible, but
those who proclaimed martial law,
without defining RESPONSIBILITIES. and
those VINO, when crimes were COM
mitted, shielded the criminal, so per-
hitting him to add to his crimes, while
he, Sir Francis, was closed down and
relegated to unemployment.

SLIGHTLY RAISED
State Insurance Surveyor Mott
fies Local Agencies of Rate
Effective February 1

Local insurance agencies have been
notified by the Washington Insurance
surveyor that beginning February 1,
insurance rates on all dwellings in the
city are raised from five to fifteen
cents on each 500. No reason for in
crease is given by the surveyor and To-
cal agents are at loss to account for
the raise, as the city's fire-fighting
equipment has not deteriorated and
there have been no disastrous fires in
the last few months.
The rate on "B" class dwellings has
been Increased from IS to so cents;
sc" class from so to go cents; and sd"
class from 60 to IS cents. An addi-
tional increase is ordered on dwellings
in which chimney is built on shelf.
No change is made in the rate on
farm buildings. this rate having been
increased last fall from rs cents to
$1.OO.
Local agents have also been notified
that those farmers who operate incu-
bators in their dwellings must pay for
the privilege, rs cents for each 500
of insurance, in addition to the regular
rate.

GIBBON CUTOFF WILL
PUT PROSSER ON BRANCH
Northern Pacific Official Says Com
pany Will Build Line This
Summer

The announcement by George T.
Reid, assistant to the president of the
Northern Pacific, that the company
would extent the three valley branches
a total distance Of 10 miles this year
was received with much satisfaction
here, says a Yakima news dispatch.
The construction of line between the
terminus Of the Sunnyside branch at
Grandview to the main line at Gibbon
nine miles below Prosser, will give the
company a choice of routes between
Gibbon and Sunnyside Junction, east
Of Toppenish, to enable a diversion Of
fast trains and heavy traffic from the
heavy grade at Prosser to avoid a
point where for years the roadbed has
been slowly, but steadily slipping to-
ward the river, compelling all trains
to proceed with great care. It is ex-
pected here that only local trains will
use the present main line, serving
Mabton and Prosser, after the new
road is constructed. The right Of way
from Grandview to Gibbon was pur-
chased six years ago.

railroads have succeeded in keeping
their trains running thru Kennewick.
The main line of the Northern Pacific
is out of commission near Mesa and
Eltopia where high water has done
serious damage. Trains are being
routed over the s., p. & S. between
here and Spokane and the regular
schedule maintained as nearly as pos
sible.
The O-W. is sending its passenger
trains into North Yakima in relays, a
transfer being necessary at Granger,
where the tracks are washed out. 1t
was thought today that the line would
be open tomorrow.

NO Use TO TALK FRUIT
TO MIDDLE WESTERNER
MouIton Says Iowa Farmers Have
Lost Confidence in Orchards
of sthe Northwest

Attorney M. M. Moulton returned
Tuesday from a visit to his old home
in Iowa and business trip to Chica-
go. Altho Mr.. Moulton was not par
ticularly impressed with the prosper
ity tide which is reported to be run
ming high from the East toward the
West, he says he found fairly pros
porous conditions in his old home
state.
Zone very noticeable indication of
good times is the fact that there are
no idle men in the middle West" said
Mr.. Moulton. "The federal employ
ment bureau of Chicago instead of ad-
vertising for jobs is advertising for
men to fill jobs. It is my impression
that the people of the middle West
have lost confidence in the fruit in
dustry of the Northwest. While they
admit that we have a great country
out here they refuse to be interested
if you attempt to talk fruit. If we
ever bring the middle westerner out
here again we must be able to convince
him Of the possibilities here for pro-
fitable general farming; for hog rails
ing and dairying, for alfalfa and corn.
The fruit tree has lost its charm"
