Irish Leader Sees Danger of Estranging Public Opin- ion in U. S.-Warns
 Radical Faction

Baillieborough, Ireland. May 27.-John Dillon, chairman of the Irish nationai- ists, speaking Sunday, declared war to the death of the Sim Fein The oc- casion for his speech was meeting of delegates from East Cavan to decide whether the nationalist party ought to withdraw it's candidate and permit the Sim Feiner, Arthur Griffith, to be elect ed unopposed
 Mir Dillons speech bristled with ref erenees to America and appeals to Irish men not to neglect American public opin ion, He emphasized his denunciation of the Sim Fein by quoting several phrases from his statement recently made to the Associated Press. and added
 Some English newspapers have quoted the interview I gave to the Associated Press of America as evidence that nave broken off my alliance with the Sinn Fen. You cannot break off what has never existed
 T am being denounced by the Sim Feiners as an imperialist, which I never was, and as an enemy of the true prin- ciples of Irish nationality. And l have repeatedly explained that, while l was in favor of the Mansion House confer ence for the sake of presenting united front on the single question of conscrip- ton, l was so far from believing that there was any other possible, common platform with the Sim Feiners that I was more bitterly and more irreconcila- bly, opposed to DeValera and Griffith than ever before in my life.
 T am today more convinced than ever that the Sim Fein policy is calculated to rob Ireland of the sympathy of Amer ica and of all democratic people through out the world

smallpox germs had been placed in
all the milk bottles that were put
out over town and that there was no
use of a quarantine as everyone was
infected; that was only starter to
what would happen to the people of
this vicinity by those sympathizing
with Germany. The card was signed
"German-American."
1t looks as though someone is sore

wanted to start something, hiding be-
hind the German propaganda idea.
Whether German-American or Amer

the feeble minded. The idea of in
noculating people through germs in
the milk bottles, while possible, has
very flimsy groundwork. AS to what
is going to happen that, is worse, that
may be true but it will come the
other way. The people of this COM
munity will take good deal but in
these days of hard times when they
are sacrificing and sending the boys
away to the front, remarks of those
favorable to the enemy are not going
to be stood for and some day some
of these propagandists in THIS COM
munity who don't know enough to
keep their thoughts to themselves will
get what they need. If such people
want to be patriotic let them get back
over the sea among those of their
kind If they want to stay here, let
them close up.
If the federal authorities get clue
to the smallpox" sign things will be
made interesting for someone.-Min-
