Public Mendaclty viii Be Punished by
the People.

It is time for the masses of the
people in every country to resent, in
a practical manner, the falsehoods re-
.peatedly uttered in public by those
whom they have placed, temporarily,
by their votes in positions of promi-
nence and power, says the Pittsburgh
Observer. The politicians, and self
styled statesmen who secure these
positions generally regard themselves
as superior beings whom the people
have no right to criticize for their
iterated hypocrisies and lies, and are
prone to think that, owing to the
proverfial "shortness" Of the s'public
memory" they will escape the punish
ment they deserve.
But there is limit in this matter
as in other matters; and the day of
reckoning will assuredly come-in this
republic next year, when there will
be fateful general election.

cember, because he saw a chance to
win victory by cooked means, an
other appeal to the people may soon
be made.
For Georges government is al.
ready ''discredited." That, according
to a vigorous and outspoken editorial
writer on the staff of the Catholic
Times Of London, is the word that
is now being used in regard to it in
journals not controlled by the George
ties and the coalition Tories.
First of ALL" he says. ''the cleo
tion was mistake. The people were
deceived. False issues were put be-
fore them, hopes were dangled in
front Of them that were never meant
ito be fulfilled, and men who did not
mean to fulfill them were returned at
the polls. Worse, more fatal, than
all, the government represents only
a minority of the electorate. Yet 1t
has such a huge majority in the
House of Commons, in spite of the
minority vote which returned it, that
people cannot understand why it does
nothing to keep its promises made be.
fore the elections.
"These promises were not intended
to be kept. They were known to be
impossible to keep. How could Mr.
Georges government force Germany
to pay such an indemnity as would
cover the expenses of the war? Ger
many is bankrupt; and unless we are
willing to employ an army year after
year to enslave the German people
and make them work till they have
paid the whole cost of the war, we
can never get it out of them; nations
no more than men, can squeeze blood
out of stone.
when Mr.. Georges patty prom.
ised to make the Germans pay the
full bill, they knew they were talk.
ing nonsense and deceiving the cleo.
tors. Also, when they promised to
punish the kaiser, they must have
known that they had no real inten-
ton to do SO; and the Tories are SO
strong in this government that they
will take care the kaiser is not
brought to trial, or, if tried, is let off.
Again, when on the eve Of the poll.
ing, Mr.. George assured the country
that he did not purpose to continue
conscription, he either meant to de.
ceive the country or has been com.
PEELED to do what he declared would
not be done. Anyhow, the election
promises are blown to the winds.

fenced to six months imprisonment
by a special Crimes Court on charge
of unlawful assembly on the occasion
of the midnight meeting in connection

Defendant said his policy was based
on the aims and objects for which
England was supposed to have gone
into the war. The Irish people were
inspired by England's proclaimed
ideas in setting up government that
had the approval and consent of the
majority. He was influenced by that
program in carrying out the work that
was calculated to make Dali Eireann
the de facto government of Ireland.

replied, 'No," and the mother replied,
Good; if you did would not let you
