The Drdf' For ireland
lFrom The New York SUM-

today-the emancipation Of civilization
from military despotism. In Ireland
Just as in this country, just as In Eng
land, Just as IN every land where dem
ocracy Is made the plaything OF politi-
cal maneuver and personal ambition,
there are always men who VIII not fall
to take advantage OF an opportunity TO
lift their voices against unwelcome gov
ernmcnt programs. however necessary
they may be. TO profane the very name
Of liberty with their rawlings IN us De
half. But their ciamor Is out OF an
proportion TO their numbers. Thcir
efforts are not honored by the majority .
they come TO be scorned by some OF
their very own.
In the struggle for the preservation
of the rights Of civilization part oi
Ireland has already gone TO the war
and done It's share TO the everlasting
glory Of Ireland. Now in the very hur-
rlcane OF the conflict in northern
France. in the very crisis Of the liberty
OF the world, another part OF Ireland
will 60 under the draft with cheers
on their lips and fire in their hearts
as long as the German war machine
strives TO debase all free men intG
crawling creatures licking the dust o.

Lloyd George demands The draft for
ireland along with all other parts OF
the United Kingdom because its whole
available man power Is needed to keep
tho iron heel Of German militarism OF
the necks Of all men who would be free.
This paper for one thinks too well Of
the Irish people to believe that as
whole or as the greater part they will
resist the draft when they knew the Bit
ter. the ignoble, the irreporDlea price
which would have TO be paid to trlum-
phant Prusslan bsrbarlsm If the Allies
were overwhelmed by the most per
feet war machine That has ever stlled
liberty and enslaved mankind.
10 is unth nkoble that the irish, 70
whom independence is arelgion, would
choose German servitude for themselves
rather than have England escape that
war machine II is unthinkable that
the Irish, whose intelligence and keen
ness are a prOverb would fail to see
that England cannot fall under the iron
heel without ireland meeting the same
fate. II IS unthnkable that Ireland,
rather than be loyal to the Allied ma
tions battling grlmly against that war
machine, would choose 90 be q Poland,
q Rumans, O Russia, In The most sick
ening chains that have ever shackled
the opportunities and the hopes Of
mortal man.
Tens Of thousands OF men in whose
veins runs the purest Irish blood have
gone from this country willingly and
eagerly TO Join the Allies battling IN
France. Their love OF liberty is IS
strong as any on this earth. Nobody
has a dearer passion than they to se'
the ireland Of their fathers standing
in the family OF nations on even term'
with all others. And they have gon'

be Irish freedom, there can never b

II the iron heel Of Prussian militarisn
Is TO be permitted to crush out In

There will be. II we are not mucl
mistaken, tens Of thousands Of men T.

WHAT is LRERTY?

gxy are hearing and reading much about "LDerty'
w What is II?
Tho dictionaries define It as freedom of action,
the right Of the individual to do he peases with that
which is his II is clear and simple definition but we
always miss much when take definitions at their
face value Liberty is great deal more than the in
dvlduars freedom Of action
Liberty is one Of the mightiest sentiments that have
shaped the affairs OF men since the beginning
The archeologiss have dug up for our study long
buried civilizations In almost every one OF the con-
tnents and in every instance there has been abundant
evidence Of the prevalence OF an arbitrary ruling or
privileged class or set Of individuals, no matter how
high the order 81 civilizations disclosed There is also
record in modern history OF times when mems wages
social status and limit Of aspirations were definitely
fixed by and TO the advantage Of the few The common
man must live thus work for this wage believe in this
or that god or be beaten burnt jailed But liberty Is
born Of thought end suffering is the great promoter OF
thought Men 10 that while liberty exercised
FOR the masses meant progress exercised BY the few II
was no longer liberty but tyranny and they began to
turn existing conditions upside down. for hhertys sake
But such mighty force Is liberty that even It must
have its limits Like nre, it is good servant but bad
master. Liberty something than the rsh OF the
individual TO do he pleases The individuals acts and
even his possessions must be limited by what is for the
! common good
What is true OF individual persons true Of indivd

dyldual liberty upon the world without Limitation by
tho common good Of the nations. America and the Allies

drunk on miltarlsm and interfere with the common

Liberty is among the greatest Of blessings It Is ono
OF the mightlest Of sentiments that have raised man
above the beasts It be worked for fought for died
for II needs he, always But, It must needs have its
limitations like all other sentiments that aeet man,
faith IN God.
The man who commits gross and unwarranied abuses
and iniustlces In the Of liberty Is better than
"a the man who denies the right OF human liberty with
limitations which make for The common welfare.
