This work has been promoted during the abnormal time due to war and post war conditions The fall work of 1918 was seriously interrupted by the cpl demic of influenza.

A REPUBLIC

FREEDOM.
WOMEN TAKE PART
DEMAND GARRISONS OF BRIT
ISH TROOPS LEAVE THE
ISLAND.

Dublin, Jan. 22.-The Sim Fein As
sembiy met at the Mansion House
yesterday afternoon. The assembly
stood while declaration of independ-
ence was read, announcing the estab-
hshment of an Irish republic, and de
manding the evacuation of Ireland by
the British garrisons.
A crowd of perhaps 1000, includ-
ing many women and children, wear
ing green, white and yellow ribbons,
pressed around-the door of the Man
sion House, watching the delegates en-
ter. Only two policemen were visi-
bic. but the Sim Fein had its own
police-youths wearing white arm
bands-te keep order
The youthfulness of the Sim Fein
leaders was their most noticeable char
acteristic. There were hardly a half
dozen gray heads in the group. Count
Plunkett, member of Parliament and
one of the leaders of the party, in
troduced, in a few terse sentences,
Charles 5. Burgess, a young man who
acted as chairman.
The roll call was made in English.
1t included all the members of Parlia-
ment elected from Ireland to the Brit
lsh Parliament. Naturally, ma jor-
ity of these men failed to respond, as
they are in prison.
The most striking feature of the
program was the reading of the Dec
laration of Independence. First in
Irish, with the delegates standing, and
afterwards in English and French
"lreiand's Address to the Free Ma
tions" was read. 1t concluded with
an announcement of the complete in
dependence of the Irish republic
against the ..rrogant pretensions of
England, founded in fraud and sus-
tanned only by an overwhelming mill
tary occupation" The meeting lasted
only ninety minutes.

Strife, The Kind Rewsrders Of In

There are thousands today looking
or farms to buy. and with the hun
irsds of thousands of acres offered for
'ale, there is no lack of opportunities.
But there are all classes of lands. good,
BAD, and Indifferent, much of each.
The government of the Dominion of
Canada has no land for sale. but with
n the boundaries of the Dominion
here are unlimited acres of choice
and owned by railway and land COM
panies and private individuals. 1t
holds no brief for any, nor are any
of them clients. But 1t is to the in
terest of the Dominion to have the hun
ireds of thousands of acres placed un-
der cultivation, for every acre thus cul-
tivated adds to the revenue which helps
pay the government of the country. 1t
is with the purpose of citing forth
the agricultural advantages that Can
ada, especially Western Canada. pos
sesses. that attention is drawn to the
fact. The purpose is to place before
the reader truthful statements, and
advise the prospective settler as to
the necessity to investigate and in
spect leaving TO his own deduction the
matter of his selection. Once he de-
cides, the government viii render him
any further information necessary as
TO location. prices and value of land,
and assist him in every way possible to
become settled.
The cost OF a trip to Western Can
ada, to any portion of the three prov
inces-Manltoba, SASKATCHEWAN and
Alberta-specially indicated in this
work. is but trifle compared with the
benefits that n personal inspection may
give. Therefore the advice is to do
so. Low rates on railways will be ar

for giving the country n thorough and
careful examination. II may be that
