land, the country having been under
the rule of martial law for the past
ten months, is quoted as saying that
an Irish Parliament will be worth at
least 100000 new men for the army in
Ireland. Canada and Australia.
Your correspondent believes the set
tlement has come too late, if it does
come at all, to draw men into the
army. The young men will not ex-
change their liberty or the chances of
death for the uncertainties of any kind
OF Home Rule. The sufferings of the
country during the war are felt and
the people recognize that any measure
OF self-government offered them is de-
signed solely to draw them into the
army Vast authority is to be given
to the Empire War Council the lead
ing colonial members will for time
sit in the war cabinet. So it really
seems, from all reports, that this most
powerful body in the history of the
Empire, has both the power and the
will to recommend Irish autonomy in
an effective way which neither the
Lords nor the Commons dare resist.

tant month for Ireland since April.

land has raised her voice in behalf of
Belgium, but calculating and reminis-

pie has besotten spirit of distrust
which has unhappily shown itself in
many Of her other dependencies.

when such slaring proof of the con-

One can readily understand why

patriotism should applaud the course

passes our comprehension, however, is
the attitude Of the Anglo-maniacs who
would have us forget English fury not
only toward small and defenseless
countries but even toward our own be-
loved land ut various intervals in the
history OF this republic.
Today England is harassed both
from without and from within. She
realizes the need of strong financial

help her. She comes to us and calls
us FRIEND now that we are power
full, resourceful, formidable. But we

ENCLAND'S MOST HIDEOUS CRIMES

since April, 1916? And all the water
in the rough, rude sea cannot wash out
his sin and shame. He has adored
false gods. He has swung incense
either In England or in foreign fields
to the God of England which is Money,
Business-position and concommitant-
ly pleasure of the baser sort. He has
of course lost his power of expression;
he babbles "bearla," really bastard
English. The blood of nature wells
up his native speech despite the false
coat that pretends to cover it.
1t is no wonder then that when Pat
rick Pearse founded st. Ender's for
the reconstruction of Irish life, his pur-
pose met with studied opposition from
all the Anglo-Saxonized institutions of
Ireland lay and clerical. 1t should be
so. They never were allowed to know
better. English for most of them was
the only avenue to fame and comfort.
In spite of contumelious silence and
bigOtry, st. Enda's fourished, and fos-
tered the most illustrious group of all
lreland's patriots. Ireland has no finer
body of men in the annals of it's sor-
rowful life and chiefly because of the
purity of their lives combined with the
knowledge and love of Ireland's soul,
as known to them by familiarity with
the ancient tongue. So far as mortal
man can ever apprehend they were in
the order OF patriotism as near what
the true martyr was in the order of
the supernatural as could be accom-
plished or conceived. | have read of

land and God were SO entwined, and
certainly OF none in which these bonds
We're so put to the test.
No means known to man can so eff
fcctually denationalize a race as the
prescription of native speech And
Ireland may bewail the dwndling of
her race from Sc to Az millions in a
half century in which all nations ad-
vanced. She may bewail her ancient
parliament and laws, but her ancient
and classic speech unknown is to be
