SINN FEM HERO.
Leader Whose Genius Has

of fire flashes early from H. He
does not rant either. Indignation
flames. The soul shines forth from
the flashing dark eyes, Such are
the impressions Of reporters for the
London press.
He has a tragic platform manner
He conveys or communicates emo
ton with his arms, now folded
across his breast or again held be-
hind him until they wave in the air
as he darts forward at a decisive
moment. One derives an impression
of youth, precisely as in the time
of the orthodox home rulers of the
Redmond school one beheld middle

ment in slightly cracked accents.
There Is nothing cracked in the
accents of de Valera, although there
is an occasional hoarseness. He has
moments Of oratOrical frenzy when
he seems anything but the cool and
calculating geometrican. He might
occasionally be deemed diffuse, If
not incoherent and irresponsible In
moment more he is calm, collected,
narrating some fresh instance Of
British stupidity
Stupidity, as the London World
says, is the indictment Of the
British always when de Valera is
called upon to frame it. There are
moments when de Valera goes so far
as to say that the British are not
even ordinarily bad. They are sim
ply stupid. The topic is dwelt upon
with a wealth of delicious illustra-
ton from the Irish point of view
II is one OF the paradoxes Of his
situation that de Valera is per
sonally quite popular with many Of
the English in Ireland He has
not the cold aloofness of Parnell in
dealing with everybody, his own
followers included, nor yet the
somewhat aristocratic hauteur Of
the late John Redmond, suggesting
the English country gentleman, nor
the vehement hatred of all things

LODGE AND IRELAND.

4 young man is not always
wrong. When he opens his mouth
to discourse he does not, by a kind
of compulsion, utter an absurdity
o ra truism. The thoughts of youth
are long, long thoughts, and some
times they are exceedingly valuable.
Thus for instance Senator Henry
Cabot Lodge, OF Massachusetts,, said
very we'll nearly quarter of a cen
fury ago:
I'VE sympathize instinctiyely q.
with. men who are struggling any
where for freedom and the right
to govern themselves In certain
quarters today IL is the fashion TO
sheer at this American sentiment
and TO ask why we should sympa-
thize with the Irish, or waste
thought on them. When the
modern friends of England in the
United States jeeringly ask why
we should trouble ourselves about
the Irish and go so far afield
with our sympathies, they fail TO
remember the history of their own
country. - Sympathy for men
fighting for freedom anywhere Is
distinctively American, and when
from fear or greed or from alb
sorption in merely material things
we despise and abandon It. we shall
not only deny our history and our

A capacity for the quiet manage

the combination that seems 70 ex-

however misappHed, if We are to be
guided by the London News, while
the Manchester Guardian thinks
that anywhere but in Ireland he
would now be a statesman in
reasonable Office, swaying the des-
nnies of his country. In a period
that he remains still a character,
unfamiliar and mysterious, he has
converted an obscure and prescribed
revolutionary society into the DOM
inant Irish political party. He has
routed the entrenched leadership OF
the Redmonds ana the billions, the
O'Briens and the Deylins all COM

attitude of the Roman Catholic
hierarchy. at one time openly hostile
to him He has composed feud
after feud within his following
through his perfect sympathy with
Irish human nature and a rare COM
prehension of its merits and defects.
Results Of this sort, as the Liberal
Manchester organ remarks, are never
achieved by mediocrities, and those
British newspapers which at first
hailed dc Valera as an interloper
and foreigner, coming from no
where and representing nothing, are
now inclined to agree that. humiliat-

in london, ne has matched his wits
against theirs and made even the
great Lloyd George, to say nothing

seems to have given him the heavy
build of O'Conneli, but he has not

wide open eyes Of de Valera, set
far apart, are large and staring,
forming an essential feature OF the
physiognomical impression as a
whole The lips are firm and com
pressed in repose. The nose is
slightly hawklike and the skin by
its swarthiness reveals the Iberlan
