Ample educational facilities for all

The local correspondent at Ennis
quotes Prof. de Valera as saying he does
not intend TO take his seat in the house
OF commons.
The election OF Edward de Valera as
member Of parliament for East Claire,
the third Sim Feiner to be returned to
parliament Of late. is treated as an
event of great political consequence
by the morning papers, which devote
considerable space TO the victory.
The tendency Of the unionist press.
rejecting their advices from Belfast
and Dublin, is to emphasize what 1t
always contended-the folly of the gov.
ernment in liberating Sim Fein pris
oners in Ireland and refraining TO deal
with revolutionary talk and acts as
such would be dealt with in England
These papers regard the situation as
gravely threatening, for they see moth.

The liberal press also is alarmed, but
rather for the position OF the official
nationalist party and the prospect Of
the re-establishment OF constitutional
home rule.
