Interesting Letter

Letter from the pen of Father George
ClarsOn of Paw Paw, published in
the Chicago Herald Examiner Of
January 18th. The letter is of
special interest and value for the
information it contains relative to
the "Sinn Fem, an organization or
party in Ireland, about which much
has been said recently through the
press and of which very little is
really understood by the general
reading public. The letter follows:
Sir-The result of the late elections
in Ireland must have made Sim Fem
a household word. 1t has brought the
party so designated into such prom
inence that it can no longer be ignor-
ed by any statesman on either side
of the Atlantic The question most
frequently asked in social and politi-
cal circles is, what is Sim Fein 2"
Etymologically it means Ourselves
Alone. Politically it mans "self-
determination" self-reliance.
1t cannot have escaped the notice
of the American public that base
and dishonest attempt has been
made to identify it with anarchy.
During the war it was synonymous
with ro-Germanism. Since the arm
istice it is an amalgam of Bolshevism
and l. w. W.-ism. These names are
hateful to the people of America and
hence dastardly campaign of calum-
ny and falsehood has been started
to poison the wells Of truth and there
by to ALLEVIATE the sympathy of Amer
lea from the Irish people.
It is deftly insinuated if not openly
asserted, that the Sim Feiners are
criminals, blackguards, extremists,
dynamiters-in fact the scum Of
Irish society.
The elections have burst that bub-

bile. The Sim Fein is the Irish
nation, the cream de la cream of the
Irish people. The movement has cap
tured Ireland and comprises the whole
population, including the younger
members of the nobility, the cottagers
from the hillside districts and even
the independent Orangemen. Its
leaders are laymen, almost equally Of
the Protestant and Catholic faiths.
What then is this movement? And
why is it so hated and dreaded by
England and Anglomaniacs on this
side of the water? 1t is the appli-
cation to Ireland of American princi-
Piles so LUMINOSITY and eloquently ex-
pounded by the foremost Sim Feiner
of the world, Woodrow Wilson.
1t is. to use the words Of Sidney
Brooks, the distinguished English
publicist, movement of national
resurrection, Standardization and self
dependence. In Hungary, Bohemia
and Finland we have applauded and
sympathized with similar movements
in the past. In Ireland we may at
least try to understand"
It's members are not Socialists or
anarchists. They are not the "apos-
ties of physical force" 1t is a con
stitutional policy, the latest and sanest
devised, to compel England to recog-
nize the claims Of Ireland to self
government.
And this it proposes to do by
wise and mastery method of passive
resistance. The upheavel OF political
systems brought about by the war
made the Sim Fein the advocates OF
an Irish republic; and back OF this
constitutional policy are the finest
brains of Ireland, the shrewdest politi
cal minds among Irishmen, north and
south.
It's policy is patterned on that by
which Deak won Hungarian self
government. When organized early
in this century, its leaders defined
their arms as securing for Ireland a
government as free and full as Hun
gary has had.
The original program or manifesto
of the Sim Fem party states: First
that the object of the Sim Fem is
the establishment of the indepen-
dence of Ireland. Second, the Sim
Fein policy is to unite Ireland on this
broad platform, namely, that we are
distinct nation and that we will not
make any voluntary agreement with
Great Britain till she keeps her own
solemn compact which she made in
1882, by which it was enacted chat
the people of Ireland are bound only
by the laws enacted by the King,
Lords and Commons of Ireland, and
that this act shall at no time here
after be questioned or questionable"
But it may be objected that by her
attitude during the war, Ireland re-
nounced her claim to self-determin-
alton and her right to appeal to the
good offices of the American govern
ment. Though this is not strictly
germaine to the subject, l may be
permitted 20 say for the benefit of
those VIII were deceived by foul
calumnJ and Misrepresentation that
no CO mtry in Europe went into the
war With as much ardor and enthusi-
asm as the Irish people. So true is
this that Mr.. Asquith, Ex-Prime Min
lister, declared in one of his speeches,
that "Ireland was the one bright spot
in the Empire"

serious friction, and there Is nope
that it may be completely wrought
with no serious industrial and finan-
cial disturbance. Some concern exists
however, as to the possibility of un-
employment, and to guard against
this, proposals are being made look
ing to the resumption of public work
which will give employment to those
unable, for the time being, to find it
in the general industries Of the coun-
try.
The Railroad problem
Remains Unsettled
1t is not unlikely though, that the
experience gained in recent years,
and especially during the time the
roads have been under the control of
the Government, will furnish a safe
guide for new legislation. 1t is
realized by all who have made a care
full study of the railway problem that
la return to past conditions is impos-
sible. There will either be Govern
ment ownership and operation, OF the
roads will be returned to their owners
under conditions which will permit of
their profitable operation and the Sc
curing of fresh capital. Conservation
opinion supports the latter policy, and
at the moment it seems unlikely that
Government ownership and operation
of the railways is imminent at least.
Hope for Better Competitive
Marine Shipping Rates
Has been revived by the proposal
that in making rates, the income
should be based upon a reduction of a
sum approximating $1,000, 100000 on
the cost of the mercantile fleet con-
structed during the war.
Our Rapidly Growing
Foreign Investments
They continue to attract attention.
We have now invested abroad a sum
which is rapidly nearing ten billion
dollars, which will mean an annual
interest return of some S500,000,000
thus adding to the enormous balance
our foreign trade has been pi,ing up
for some time.
Artifcially Sustained Prices
Continue in Some Lines
They prevent return to normal
conditions. Fixing the price of wheat,
for example, at $2.26 per bushel has
induced the planting of a record area
of wheat, and the outlook for the
years crop indicates an unprecedent-
ed yield. In view Of the artifcially
fixed price it has been proposed that
the Government take the wheat at II
agreed figure and gradually dispose
Of it at market price.

Weekly Health Talks
URIC ACID I'm THE SYSTEM
BY LEE Il. SMITH. NJ. D.

Uric acid is now generally recog-
nized as the cause of more diseases
than was heretofore believed. When
the kidneys are out of order uric acid
accumulates within the body in super
abundance. The disordered kidneys
do not filter the poisons out of the
blood, as they ought to do, and so the
poisons remain in the blood and float
around until they find place to
lodge, in form Of urate salts. The
thing to remember is that you may
have rheumatism in any part of the
body-you may have pains anywhere
your back may ache and your head
may be dizzy-but the trouble is not
where the pain appears.
The trouble is in the kidneys, and
what is the first thing to do? You must
get that excess uric acid out of your sys-
TEN, which can be done by taking Anuric
Tablets, the splendid remedy which DIR.
Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y, has put on sale
in the drug stores at low price. Anuric
Tablets (made double strength), when
taken into the system as medicine, have
the peculiar power of dissolving the uric
acid deposited there. Drop bit of sugar
or salt into hot water, and it will disap-
pear. In precisely the same way do these
Anuric Tablets dissolve uric acid. OF
course, after Kidding the system of uric
acid, it may return again unless you eat
the right foods and i've the right kind of
life, but DR.. Pierce viii advise you fully
on proper food and correct living if you
write and ask him. He makes no charge
for such advice. Take Anuric Tablets to-
day, by all means, and set that uric acid
out of your system Don't, don't, don't,
put the matter of.

That all herd owners Immediately

plan is the advice of c. P. Norgord,

Application for free official tests for
admission to the list can be made to

Two free official tests will be made
by federal or state veterinarians. If
both official tests are clean, the herd
will be fully accredited on state and

privileges of that class of herds.
Cattle from these herds can be ship
ped TO other states on the accredited

Other animals must be tested within
60 days of shipment, and in many
states are subject to a retest within go
days after arrival.
