DUBLIN, July SO - ASSOCIATED
Press (--Some of the older Irish priests,
particularly in County Wexford, have
been speaking out strongly against the
Sim Feiners. Very Rey. Canon Walsh,
presiding at a meeting Of the Crossa-
beg and Ballymurn branch of the Unit
ed Irish League, said the prospect be-
fore Ireland was a gloomy one, as the
terminal lunacy of Sim Fcin" was
turning all Ireland's friends against
her. By insulting and tranPIing upon
the American flag and cheering for
Emperor William, he said, the "unruly
Sim Fein faction" was turning the
French Republic, the American nation
and the English democracy into bitter
enemies of Ireland.
Rather than gain independence for
Ireland they were more likely to gain
twenty years of coercion and martial
law, if any general support were ao-
corded by Irishmcn to the antics of the
miserable faction" whose record said
Canon Walsh, 80 far was one of dis
sensiOn, disruption and disaster. The
democracy of England, he continued,
was fayOrably disposed towards Irish
men and was willing to do them justice,
but they would never consent to the
sheer lunacy of total separation and,
until the evil spirit of Sim Fein was
bapished from the land, Ireland would
labor under the yoke of oppression.
Resolutions were passed at the meet
ing condemning the latest German out
rage in numbering seven innocent fish
ermen off the Galway coast; and dc

Letter from Pvt. Harvey F. Mar
tin, Co. B, 3O1st Machine Gun Bait.
A. F. ", Via New York:
France, August 8.
Dear Folks at Home:
l suppose you are wondering how
l am getting along since I last wrote
There is not whole lot to write
about because this is very quiet
place. 1 have been feeling fine ever
since l came here. The climate is
very similar to what we have at
home. We are two miles from the
village or the place they call vii
lage. There are only a few old hous-
es and l should say the people are of
not a whole lot of inducement to get
out as we are not able to buy any,
thing in the line of eats. Every
house has plenty of wine, ETC., so if
a fellow likes that he has not to live
in want.
Have found place where I can
get milk. Was talking with this lady
and she said it was hard for her to
get enough to eat last winter. Meats
are scarce, eggs 90c the dozen, but
ter $1.28 pound, and the bread they
eat is certainly war stuff. The French
people seem to realize if we had not
taken part that Germany would have
won out. I went to church Sunday
in the smallest church I was ever in,
little stone building with only three
windows. There were two lady sing
ers with very good voices and a few
of the boys spoke about how good it
seemed to hear them.
There are several wells on this
farm where we are staying and the
water is good and cold. We have to
go about two miles down the river to
do our washing. The water seems
hard and it takes some work to get
the clothes clean. Laundry soap is
hard to get and costs 18c the cake for
a cake a little larger than those at
home at 7c. 1 have made arrange
ments with lady to do my washing
from now on. They do not charge
much more than the soap costs, and I
will not have to be in the river an
hour and take chance of getting
cold. They are threshing grain with
steam engine here today. The sep
arators are much different from
those at home. In my walking about
have seen but little fruit on the trees
Imagine the cold weather killed the
blossoms in the spring. You would
laugh to see the wagons they use
dIOuIlu mere. IHcy are CWO-WHoeleu
carts. If they wish to use two hors-
es they hitch the second on ahead
The cart they use to go to town in
has wheels as heavy as heavy farm
wagon at home. I was out for a walk
last night and found place where I
bought some eggs and had some fried.
She also gave us some dutch cheese
and bread and so we had regular
feed.
I have some time in getting paper
to write on but we use any old dirty
paper as long as we write home.
They say we are going to have cam
teen here so we may be able to get
the things we need most.
I have not seen Albert Sherbert
since we were in the rest camp in En-
gland, but heard he was staving
about three miles from here. Hope
this finds you all we'll.
I remain your loving son.
Harvey.

TRANSPORTATION OF OUR
TROOPS

"a transport miracle, Sir John
Maclay, the British controller Of ship
ping, calls the success with which the
United States has moved 1900, 900
American soldiers from their scat
tered camps on this side the Atlantic
to the fighting areas across the seas.
Although the seas have been beset by
the enemy the loss Of life in taking
the men across has been almost in
finitesimally small. This bit of Amer
lean efficiency has not only surprised
our enemies; we have surprised our
friends and even ourselves.
And it isn't all due to the Navy. The
railroads have had their share in the
achievement. Director General Nc
Adoo seems justified in his statement
that while the development of the
Railroad Administration requires
time, progress has been made toward
the goal.
And it isn't all due to the Navy and
the railroads, either. 1t is the Liberty
Bond purchasers who made it possible,
and back of the purchasers the Lib
erty Bond. If the people respond to
the Fighting Fourth as they did to the
First, Second and Third, and there is
every indication that they will, there
is no telling what other miracles may
be accomplished.

EXPENSES OF WAR

When it is realized that one 16-inch
she'll complete with explosives, pack
ing, etc, costs nearly $1,000 some idea
can be formed Of what even a slight
encounter with the enemy costs in
these days of modern warfare. The
actual money involved In such an Of
fensive as has recently been going on
on the western front is almost too
much for the average person to mag
inc. Too few stop to think about it.
They are ready enough to shout for
the brave boys who have held back
nothing from their country's call but
they do not always stop to think as
they should that the shouts should
have a strong foundation under them,
a foundation Of Liberty Bonds and Lib
erty Bonds and still more Liberty
Bonds. Every dollar counts and ev-
cry dollar that can be put into a bond
does just SO much toward winning the
war. One dollar will buy an overseas
cap; 80 cents will buy pair of wooden
gloves; 60 cents a summer undershirt
and 500 winter one. It takes 1925
to buy an artillery (wheeD harness
and $175,000 to provide one 16-inch
gun to fire the $1,000 shell.

BANKING POWER
OF AMERICA

| Total resources of the 1858 national
banks and 2O,423 trust companies,
state banks and savings banks of the
| United States aggregate over six bill
lion dollars more than year ago and
are greater than in 1916 by nearly
twice this sum. Resources Of the ma
| tional banks amount to $18,249, 9O5, 900
and the state institutions to $22,275,-
1O4, 13O totaling S4O,525, 100000. With
the Fighting Fourth Liberty Loan
about to be launched these facts culled
by The Analist assume a special sig
nificance to the American people.
Or the 1858 national banks in the
United States New England has 4O5.
Of the 20,423 state institutions she has
884. The national banks in New Eng
land have resources amounting to ST.
319, 1851 900 and the state institutions
to 1926, 100000
The recent establishment of the
United States Council of State Bank
ing Associations to provide an organ
ization exclusively representative of
banking institutions under state con-
troll has led to study by The Analist
of the relative resources Of national
and state banks and an inquiry into
the distribution OF banking tnsutu-
tons and banking power among the -
states Of the Union.
The tremendous increase in tho
banking resources of the United
States becomes apparent whap refer-
ence Is made to the last ANNUAL report
Of the Controller of the Currency
showing tho estimated banking power
of the country in June 1916 TO have
been $29, 1853 ,0Oo, 900, and in juno 1917,
$34,473, coo, 900.
The combined resources of the
banks of six states, New York with
1871. 900; Pennsylvania So. 84a,
G68,O00; Massachusetts $2.881 ,243, 900;
Illinois, $2,566.547 900; Ohio, $780,
100000 and California, $1.770.128,00
aggregate $23,S31, $4,000 or approx
mately three-ffths of the total re-
sources Of all the banks in the coun-
try. The resources Of banks in New
York state are more than one-fourth
of the total. In Is of the 48 states the
resources of the national institutions
exceed those Of state controlled banks.
They are Alabama, Colorado, Florida,
Idaho, Illinois, Kentucky, Minnesota,
New Mexico, Oklahoma, Oregon, Penn
sylvania, Tennessee. Texas, Virginia,
Washington, and Wyoming.
The combined capital of the 2O,423
banking institutions under state con-
troll amounts to $1,19a,5S3,S41, COM
pared with s1.oe6,es2, 900. the COM
bined capital Of 1888 national banks.
The surplus Of the state banks totals
sl217 .070,7s4. compared with $685.
143 .006 for the national banks, and the
undivided pre6ts Of the torBar class
of institutions amount to $33S, 1856. 464,
compared with 1855, Ss1 600 for the lat
ter. The capital suvp1us. and undi-
vided pro6ts of the state institutions
total S2,6s1, 1875, 100 wh1le the total Of
the same items for the national banks
is S2,256, 012, 900. An analysis Of these
figures shows that the average capital.

Is This Your Experience?
Many Barton People Are Afflicted
With Annoying Kidney Ills.

Are you bothered with too frequent
action of the kidneys? Are the Sc
cretions highly colored-do they con-
tain sediment-burn and scald in
voiding? These are all signs of kid
ney sickness and should not be ne
elected. Barton people recommend
Doan's Kidney Pills. If your back
aches and your kidneys are weak you
will find no better recommended rem
edy.
A. E. Drumming, Park St., Barton,
says, 81 had been troubled more or
less with kidney complaint ever since
I was a small child. I had little con-
troll over the action of my kidneys,
They acted too freely, causing me an
noyance and making it very disagree
able. Doan's Kidney Pills were
brought to my attention and I tried
them. Three boxes procured from the
E. w. Barron Co., were enough to re-
lieve me and I certainly praise them
for the good they have done me.

COST OF AMMUNITION

The ammunition in each torpedo
fired from a ship in the present war
costs from $4,000 to $4,000. One
FOUNDER cartridge contains ammuni.
ton valued at $.72 while six FOUNDER
cartridge has ammunition valued at
$40. Ammunition in 3-inch shell is
valued at So. That in a 4-inch shell is
valued at So, in 5-inch shell at $13
and in a 6-inch shell at $1S. 1t is a
simple problem in mathematics to find
how many torpedoes Or shells can be
filled with ammunition by a single

Extract from letter from G. Lee
land Green to his uncle and aunt,
Mr. and Mrs. L. J. Elliott, Of Gov
entry. Mr.. Green is a Coventry boy,
but left his work as head of the state
agricultural school at Randolph, to go
overseas for Y. NJ. C. A. work.
Yes, am here in France and up to
the present time have had no unfor-
tunate mishap. For the past day or
two I have been resting a little at an
old castle. It is a fine old place,
surrounded by beautiful forests,
planted wholly by man. In the forest
is an ancient dungeon of great depth
where the lord of the estate could dis
pose Of his enemies if he wished to
do so. Many rabbits and other ami
mails frisk about among the trees. [
have slept upon a mattress for the
past two nights, but have slept upon
bed only three or four times since
beginning my work. I do not have a
chance to take my clothes off very Of
ten.
One night recently we lay out in
the rain in a terrific thunder shower.
Just before that we rode in truck
all night for two nights out of three.
This gives you some idea of what SOL
pared with life in peace times in the
U. S., but one can get used to almost
anything and I have been very we'll
thus far.
I have been in the midst of the big
allied advance which you have been
reading about, and recently my work
has been with wounded soldiers, both
Allies and Germans taken prisoner.
| have talked with German prisoners
and when you get to them as individ-
uals, they are men with feelings like
our own, but unfortunately on the
wrong side Of the great principles for
which we are fighting.
Yes, I have had experiences of
which l have never dreamed, know
what it is to have German airplanes
drop bombs around me. I have heard
the shrek of shells and the angry
whistle of shrapnel. l have even
smelled some of the sneezing gas
thrown over in the shells, but none of
these things have come too near me
and l have not felt in very much dam
ger.
1t is a great privilege to contribute
somewhat to the comfort and cheer
of our brave lads who are doing such
gallant fighting for America and the
great cause of her Allies, which is the
cause of all that is good and pure and
righteous. A few days ago l met
Major Theodore Roosevelt, Jr. He
has since been wounded and his
brother, Quentin, has been killed In
an airplane fight.
I like the French people so much.
They are so kind and polite and they
