DUNE CONFIDENT
OF IRISH REPUBLIC

NEW YORK. July classification
that the American delegation sent
to the peace conference to aid Irish
freedom. accomplished most OF what
it set out to achieve is expressed by
former Governor Edward F. Dunno,
Of Illinois. Dunno and Frank P.
Walsh. OF Kansas City, No. returned
yesterday. Walsh also issued q state
ment predicting the triumph Of the
Irish republic.
I'VE are confident Of the outcome.
Eighty per cent Of the people Of Ire
land demand a republic, and are en-
deavoring to function as a republic
and its people will not be content
with anything but q republic" Dunno
said.
The English government now
stands at the bar in the court OF
public opinion, and must, before
many months, withdraw its army Of
occupation and allow the Irish nation
to govern the Irish people or be con-
victed of tyrannical misgovernment,
such as does not exist elsewhere in
Europe or America
THE case OF ireland before the
worlds peace conference was being
deliberately ignored prior to our ar
rival in Paris. and was being treated
by England with her usual uncon-
Germ and contempt.
Compelled DIseussIon.
Upon our insistence. however, that
it must be considered the American
commission made representations to
the British prime minister urging
that II should receive prompt con-
sideration. The British prime min
lister thereupon expressed a desire to
meet us in conference, and gave US
diplomatic passports to visit Ireland,
expressing a desire that we should
visit all portions Of that country, in
GLIDING Belfast.
I'VE went to Ireland and thus were
able to give to President Wilson, the
American commission and to the
world q true. unvarnished story OF
English atrocities and military mis-
rule in Ireland. We compelled the
castle authorities in Dublin and
finally the whole English and Irish
press to take up and discuss openly
the scandal OF military occupation
and oppression.
Walsh asserted that despite Mr..
Lloyd Georges declaration that Eng
ldnu does not seek yarQ or terri
tory" since the war England has
not only suppressed the movement
for a free Ireland, but has seized
vast territory in Egypt, German East
Africa, German Southwest Africa,

BARTON LOSES
Newport Takes Exciting Rubber
Game at Orleans Last Week.

Before what was probably the larg-
est crowd ever assembled in Orleans
county TO witness a ball game, Barton
went down to defeat at the hands OF
Newport on the Skinner Athletic field
in Orleans Wednesday afternoon, the
score being to 6, Newport thereby
winning 1850 of the $500 purse offer
ed by Orleans.
Many Newport, Orleans and Bar
ton places of business closed for the
afternoon and cars from North Troy,
Derby Line, Lyndonville, St. john
bury and as far south as Woodsville,
y. H., were IN evidence, as well as
from most of the towns IN this part
of the state. Orleans ticket men
state that about 1900 people were
present so that the $500 guaranteed
they made was taken at the gate and
a snug sum cleared for an Orleans
/ team IN 1920.
Rooters for both sides had plenty
of chance to exercise their lungs as
both sides were ahead at different
periods of the game
Lee pitched a good game for Bar
ton but was hit at critical times and
was rather raggedly supported
Though 1t is always easy TO play .

terwards, many believe a change In

which Barton is thankful, since 1t has
