the Black Java and the Black

maturity. When full grown they at

"Aa soon as public highways are

this great Ohio highway that now tho
three cities have started an agitation

IRELAND AND FINLAND.

The Irish question and the Finnish
question are very much discussed in
the public press these days. In
many ways Ireland is TO England
what Finland is to Russia. Both
want more self-government thaa
they have enjoyed, neither can agree
internally upon just what that gov
eminent shall be Both countries
are divided upon the race and the
wealth question.
Ireland has not enjoyed the free
dom that other units OF the British
possessions have enjoyed in the past
a fact that reflects very much upon
the good name Of England. England
has arrived at a stage in her history
when her people are willing 10 &C
cord to Ireland any reasonable form
of autonomy that she may choose,
but Ireland doesn't know herself
just what she does want.
The fly in the Irish ointment is III

of ireland, but large part of the
