lowney, aged &c, occurred on Saturday,

all places where persons assembled,
excepting such as are necessary for
the maintenance of life, but it is not
permissible to put a ban on certain
classes of industry and allow others to
continue the usual course of endeavor.
Judge Bird suggested two expedi-
ents of applying legal quarantine,
either to enforce a rigid quarantine
of all places insanitary or to prohibit
all crowds of all kinds above a GER
tain number. He also stated that for
the present he would not take into
consideration the question of religious
rights.
The attorneys for the city appealed
to the Supreme Court, maintaining
that no district Judge has jurisdiction
over a properly authorized Board of
Health as long as it is acting in good
faith. The Supreme Court sustained
Judge Bird.

TELLS GERMAN ENJOYS

Washington, Dec. 28.-Food Admin.
istrator Hoover, in Europe arranging
relief for the peoples Of the war.de-

emphatic terms to discuss German
food conditions with Baron Won der
Lancken and DR.. Rieth, who sought
meeting with the food administra-

A message from Paris said these

sion for relief in Belgium, at Rotter-
dam, that they had been appointed by
the German government to negotiate
with Mr.. Hoover for food supplies and
that they desired Mr.. Hoover to adj

meet them.
In answer to the request for con-

"You can describe two and a half
years of arrogance toward ourselves
and cruelty to the Belgians in any
language you may select, and tell the
pair personally to go to hell with my

The Supreme Court of Kansas has
rendered decision declaring the
Board of Health of Wichita had ex

closing of churches during the cpl

has been granted restraining the
Health Department from interfering
with public church services. In i'm

Health ordered the closing OF
churches, schools and theaters, while
department stores and other places of
business which were densely crowded
with people daily, were permitted to

there was recrudescence of the dis

test the matter in the courts. An in
junction suit was filed in the District
Court and temporary restraining or

Judge Richard E. Bird, who rendered
a decision in favor of the churches
In the course of the proceedings it
was shown that the Board of Health
was not constituted according to law;
that there was no ordinance permit

of Health were not conducted in an
orderly manner; that no records of the

the churches, schools and theaters had
been closed, large crowds had been
permitted to gather in department

that after the quarantine had been es-

THE ULSTER QUESTION
Indiana Catholtaa.
Mr.. American Citizen!

Mr.. American Citizen!
Do you know:
That the so-called Ulster problem
was made-in-England, and is still fos.
tered from there to perpetuate English
domination in Ireland:
That it has been built up on arti-
ficially created economic and religious
differences and social and political
patronage;
That II out of 80 Irish members of
the English Parliament for Ulster are
Nationalists;
That in out of Ulster counties
the Nationalist are in the majority
that they constitute three-eights of
the population in the remaining coun.
ties, and that they are a majority in
the entire province of Ulster;
That the total wealth and wealth
per capita of Leinster is much greater
than in Ulster;
That Lord Pirie, head of the ia.
nous Harland & Wolff Shipbuilding
Yard of Belfast, and large number
OF leading Professionals (without politi-
cal ambitions) are as much opposed
to the partition Of Ireland as the over
whelming Nationalist majority in
seven-eighths of the counties of Ire
land?
Witness this extract from the speech
delivered in Massey Hall. Toronto, on
st. Patrick's day, 1917. by Lindsay
Crawford. an fisherman and founder
of the Independent Orangemen of
Ulster:
Il do not propose to say one harsh
word against this northeast corner of
Ulster. | was myself Graded in
Ulster, brought up in all the preju-
dices and traditions of Ulster Union
ism. * We cannot forget the
part that this Ulster played in the
years gone by in the National fight. If
in later years, through the intrigues
of British statesmen, these men have
been weaned from the national cause,
it Is not, l am convinced, hopeless
task to bring them back to the side of
Ireland, to make them stand, as their
fathers stood, for the defense and
maintenance of Irish nationality. II
Irishmen ask England for
nothing that is not theirs-the right to
live as a free people, the right to
mould their own destiny, the right to
raise their own taxes. the right to
educate their own children, the right
to make that country Irish from ton
to bottom
When you get through reading these
facts, slip out the article and send it
to your local daily paper or some
neighbor who has expressed himself
as believing that "UIster is against
the liberty Of Ireland" For Ulster is
not. 1t is only the English garrison
in the northeast corner Of Ulster.

Mayor Of Dublin
Scores Rowd yisn1
Refuses to Cast His Vote of Thanks
"WhIe There Is Prussan-
ism at Home"
(Irish Independent. Nov. l6.)

Grish independent. Nov 49,
The Dublin Port and Docks Board
yesterday adopted Il resolution dealing
with the victorious conclusion of hos
tilities, four members, including the
Lord Mayor, dissenting.
Mr.. j. Hollwey, who presided, pro-
posed the motion, which expressed
gratitude to Almighty God for the vic.
tory, loyalty to King George, and
thanks to the British forces, the Prime
Minister, War Cabinet, and the Minis.
tiers of the Crown. Mr.. M. Goodbody
seconded.
Mr.. L. Sherlock said there was no
one better pleased with the result
than he, but he dissented from some
of the terms of the resolution, which
should have been worded in a way
calculated to arouse no sense of hos
tility. He commented on the absence
of recognition of the work of France,
America, and the other Allies. There
was, indeed, strong feeling that
when the triumph OF the principles of
freedom and liberty had been achieved
some regard would be paid to the ap-
plication of them to Ireland, which
voluntarily had taken a stand render
ing possible "a confident appeal to
President Wilson.
Mr.. P. T. DAILY, who, with Alderman
O'Beirne, also dissented, referred to
the impudent aggression of attacking
Liberty Hall, which had given 5000
men to the army.
Attack on Mansion House.
The Lord Mayor, while paying a
tribute to the men and women who
had contributed to the glorious victory,
regretted he could not support the
resolution while his country was in
the throes of Prussianism far greater
than ever prevailed in Germany. He
was sorry the peace was not univer-
sal one, an obvious fact, seeing that
one hundred of the best blood Of Ire
land were interned in English jails on
the assumption of a German plot. If
the Mansion House were wrecked the
previous night the first picture de-
,stroyed would be that of Queen Vic
toria.
Mr.. Grove deplored last nights
scenes, and sympathized with the Lord
Mayor, and Mr.. Hewat regretted the
resolution could not be unanimously
passed, as it isolated Ireland from the
rest Of the Empire. Was it possible,
he asked, to sink all differences and
work for the common good.
Mr.. l.. Sherlock said he would be
prepared to vote for the following
resolution: "That this Board express
es thanks to Almighty God that the
World War is over, and congratulates
the Allies upon the great victory
achieved for human freedom and de-
mocracy."
The Chairman put the original mo-
ton, which was carried, the following
dissenting: The Lord Mayor, Alder
man O'Beirne, Mr.. Sherlock and p. T.
