THE READING OF IRISH HISTORY.

District Attorney Joseph c. Pelletier Of Boston,
Mass, also Supreme Advocate of the Knights of
Columbus, is one of the keenest in America on
Irish history and affairs pertaining to Ireland Mr..

erature. and the large family of children were
directed toward Irish studies by simple household
rule Mr. Pelletier, Sr., early in the lives of the
children, announced that dollar for spending
money was always forthcoming to any child who
had read through any of the several histories of
Ireland the lives of Irish PATRIOTS or other books
Irish affairs, contained in lists prepared by the bank
erfather All the children became students OF Ire
for spending money. If the list was temporarily
exhausted the re-reading of any book earned the all

to Hon Henry Cabot Lodge, of the United States

WHOSOEVER CONTROLS THE SEAS CON-
Trolls THE TRADE OF THE WORLD.

1t was Sir Walter Raleigh who gave to the mod
crn world it's first clear idea of the value of the Seas
to any power desiring world dominance. In discuss
ing the opening period of British maritime activity
the period that saw the piratica depredations of
himself and his colleagues Raleigh stated boldly
that whosoever controlled the Seas would control
the trade of the World and whoever controlled the
worlds trade must ultimately control its wealth and
power
In three hundred years there has not been any
divergence from this British aim of world-do
nance but there has not often been expression of
this aim naivey open as that of the British Navy
League to their Government in 1917. This group of
British naval mltarsts demand that ireland and its
ports be still held in the close political bondage it
has known since the days of Elizabeth and the birth
of British naval supremacy. They know their own
country has kept Irish ports as much closed to
world-comnnerce as Japanese ports once were, yet
they admit "Ireland has eighteen harbors, : {.
the best of them face the Atlantic Ocean, which
with Canada the United States, the West Indies
the Gulf of Mexico, the Panama Canal, the Carri-
bean Sea, all the Republics of South America,
Australia, China, Japan :, India, Cey-
lon and Africa dependent directly upon the con
troll of Irish seaports and the communications behind
them!"

THE FREEDOM OF THE SEAS IS LINKED
UP WITH THE FREEDOM OF IRELAND.

In 1917 the British Navy League presented an
elaborate Memorial The Strategic Importance
OF Ireland" to the British Government. The League
submitted its reasons for urging the British Govern
retain absolute control of Ireland and its
ports In marshalling their facts the League stated
ireland is the Heligoland OF the Atlantic. :.
Ireland is truly the key to the Atlantic fortress
that guards the main trade routes of the world.
Ireland has eighteen harbors Five of them
are frst-class harbors. The best of them face the
Atlantic Ocean, which floats the trade of the world"
In very truth Ireand's position is important
from a strategic and trade viewpoint in Western
Europe as Japan's is to the Orient England, by an
absolute control of Ireland and guiding control of
the East in her alliance with Japan, no less than by
her marine tonnage, remains Mistress of the two
great Oceans of the World.

1R1sH-1RELAND AND CARSON.

A Dublin correspondent, William Braydon, who
has written much that is hostile to the Sim Fen
political movement, in a recent cable, has shown
clearly the attitude of Irish-Ireand toward Sir Ed
ward Carson He has to quote Sim Fein writer,
however, to make clear the indifference, colossal,
imperturbable and to some-amazing indiffer-
Nothing distinguishes Republican more clearly
from home ruler in Dublin than their respective
attitudes toward Sir Edward Carson. The home
rulers never cease to attack him. His irritants at
once provoke counter irritants The Republicans,
however, look upon him the agent of the British
Government useful for keeping the Irish people di-
vided In this weeks New Ireland writer says it
recalls the device of the English poacher to catch
pheasants. He scatters some corn to collect the
pheasants and then lets loose game cock with steel
spurs among them. The pheasants show their pluck
by standing up to the game cock with the result that
the poacher bags them. Carson is the Carlton Clubs
game cock" Now that Sir Edward is on the eve of
starting fresh campaign, this view of his activities
is perhaps worth recording

New Jersey is the home State of President Will
son and it is very pertinent to the discussion of the
effort being made by him to drive through the Sen
ate the ratification of the League of Nations Cove
nant without amendment, to observe that the Dem
ocrats of New Jersey, at their annual convention
held October l, upon motion of Major Eugene F.
klnkead former member of Congress-, adopted the
following resolution:
"Whereas the founders of the Republic of the
United States, in the Declaration of Independence
set forth these facts:
That all men are created equal; that they are
endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable
rights that among these are life liberty and the pur
suit of happiness; that to these rights, gov
ernments are instituted among men, deriving their
just powers from the consent of.the governed That
whenever any form of government becomes destruc-
tive it is the right of the people to alter abolish it
AND to institute government, laying its foun-
dations such principles and organizing it's powers
in such form to them shall seem most likely to
effect safety and happiness
"Whereas, the people of the United States have
since that Declaration of Independence, invariably
and unalteraby subscribed to the above sentiments
and
Whereas, Woodrow Wilson, democracy's pres
ent great leader, declared innumerable occasions
before the war, during the war and after the war
that these principles, which he aptly termed self
determination, must be at the base of any settle
ment agreed upon by the nations involved at the
close OF the war and
Whereas, it for the reteraton of their belief
in these principles and their perpetuation by all the
world that American soldiers, sailors and marines
participated in the recent world and by their
heroic actions successfully concluded the war,
thereby bringing peace to the world and
Whereas, the people of Ireland in their attempt
to throw off the shackles of unjust government,
have set up for themselves form of government
based upon the principles of freedom and in accord
ance with all the principles of the Declaration of
Independence of the United States of America now,
therefore, be it
Resolved, That the Democratic Party of the
State of New Jersey, in convention assembled de-
mands that any covenant of League of Nations
adopted by the United States shall have these prn-
cples incorporated therein to the end that the indie
pendence of the Irish Republic be acknowledged" !"

Wants Lower California.

(John Temple Graves in Hearst Papers)
 Shall Lower California Alaska be the forty American State?
 To add Lower California and narrow strip of Sonora the United States by honorable purchase from the Republic of Mexico a proposition which made "a brilliant and vital afternoon of debate in the Senate.
 Here is the resolution around which this serious and notable discussion revolved:
 Resolved That the President of the
 United States is hereby respectfully requested
 to open negotiations with the Republic of
 Mexico for the purchase of the peninsula of
 Lower California and for the purchase of
 that tract of land in the State of Sonora, Republic of Mexico approximating in area
 ten thousand square miles, and lying north
 of the parallel of thirty-one degrees, twenty
 minutes north latitude
 The mover of this bold and striking resolution was Henry F. Ashurst, senior Senator from Arizona.
 Senator Ashurst advocated and defended his prop osition in remarkable speech which advanced him many degrees in the rank of American statesmanshp and is likely to be remembered of the epochal speeches of his
 Senator Ashurst had expected to consume not more than hour in speaking to his resolution But the keen interest excited by his proposition gathered close about him a large group of the ablest of the Senate who interjected many questions and gestions and comments that the debate prolonged for nearly three hours and did not know dull mo- ment from beginning to end
 Senator Ashurst bore himself superbly He was clear forcefub ready at all times courteous and at times to heights of eloquence which reused the Senate and the galleries. It a statesmanlike plea for great American proposition.
 Senator Ashurst began by reading the precedent ts which established his proposition regular and enable. He told the Senate what few people know of the value of Lower California to us and it's utter lack of value under present conditions to it's He describes the peninsula the vermiform appendix Mexico utterly useless and burdensome, and the Heel of Achilles to America, vulnerable and dangerous territory in other hands than
 The long peninsula, 600 miles in length and from 50 to 150 miles in width, which Mexico did not con trol and could not develop and never could defend which yielded Mexico revenue and furnished her no troops and was hopelessly detached from her ter rory, he declared possessed strategic advantages of incomparable value to the United States, and under the enterprise and genius of American propri etorship could be made to blossom like the rose in beauty and be made by the irrigation of the great Colorado River fertile Egypt.
 With the strip of land proposed to be bought from Sonora and likewise useless to Mexico now, it would give the State of Arizona seaport eligible Mo bile and convert the Western States into majestic and populous commonwealth.
