England. and all the world, knows
the geographical position of Ireland.
God! how we'll they know it. How
often has England stolen from Ire
land-yes, drank her very hearts
blood. How often has she drenched
the soil Of Ireland with the blood Of
patriots and martyrs? How often
has she bayoneted and murdered, not
alone the men, but the women and
little children of the Gael? God alone
knows best how well England under

create and destroy nations at will,
yet Ireland is not recognized. Why?
The answer is simple. II Ireland
is recognized she will Immediately
proceed to organize an army, build
warships, build a merchant marine,
and do her own business in her own
way where and with whom she
pleases. Her great resources will be
developed. Her coal and silver mines
will be operated. Her multitudinous
streams will be used to furnish the
power which will make the wheels
Of industry throb. What does this
mean to England? First, 1t means
that England loses about ninety mil
lion dollars year in direct taxation
for which she bleeds the people of
Ireland. Secondly, 1t means that
England loses probably three hundred
and fifty million dollars a year in
trade. Thirdly, 1t means that Irish
manufactures (Which have always ex-
celled those of England) will be in
greater demand than the goods which
are produced in the factories of Eng.

means that Ireland with an army and

The Peace Conference is still in
session. Premier Orlando of Italy,
who sought more than his "just" share
(according to the Big Four idea) and
who was denied the full measure,
throws the gauntlet in the faces Of his
fellow emancipators. Lloyd George
Is kept constantly on the run between
: Paris and London doing his utmost to
settle strikes and endeavoring to stem
the tide of young Bolshevism in Eng
land. Other idealists sit dreaming In
Versailles while the erstwhile truants
are being cajoled or threatened into
submission, into the acceptance Of
certain treaties and certain division
of spoils.
New nations are being recognized.
We read of Czecho- -Slovakia, Of the
Ukraine. Recently our daily papers
(these wonderful, truthful and inspir.
ing fountains of knowledge) informed
us that a new nation has arisen, that
her flag already floats on the breeze,
that new country has been admitted
by the Peace Conference into the
category of nations. They call this
founding something like Hedjaz.
Very few Americans have ever
heard Of Hedjaz. Fewer Americans
know anything about it. Yet-Oh!
Great Britain, suppose discovered
Hedjaz and bestowed freedom on the
Hedjazians. No other country on
earth could know where Hedjaz stood,
as we'll as England must know. Eng
land knows every hole and corner on
the globe. There is not country on
earth upon which some Of her menials
do not stand. There is not land
on Gods green earth in which she
has not committed rapine and MUIR
der. There is not nation in the
world which she has not, at some
time or other of her damnable career,
robbed and despoiled. Yes, England
must have discovered Hedjaz. They
probably found the Hedjazians veal
thy, robbed them and now perhaps
they must subdue some neighboring
tribe-and Hedjaz becomes nation.
We do not envy Hedjaz her free
dom. We would wish to see freedom
in every oppressed country on earth;
but while the cards are being shuffled,
while spoils are being divided, while

Washington, April 30.-"It is, as 1t
always has been, the purpose of the
people of the United States to with
draw their sovereignty over the Phil
ippine Islands and to recognize their
independence as soon as stable gov
ernment can be established therein" :"
This Is the official hope that the
American government has held out to
1O,0OO,0O Filipinos ever since Ameri-
can occupation.
Now come the Filipinos, through
the Philippine mission, bringing an
imposing array of proof to the effect
there is already a stable government
in the Philippines. They also point
to the testimony Of Governor General
Harrison and Acting Governor Yeater,
the two highest American officials in
the islands, who in the light of their
experience in the Philippines agree
not only that stable government can
! be established, but that one is al
ready in existence.
The Philippine mission asks, there
fore, that independence now be grant
ed at the earliest possible date. The
mission is an official body. It was
appointed by the Philippine legisla-
ture at the behest Of the Filipino peo-
pie to come to the United States at
this time and work for independence,
and ''to promote better understanding,
greater confidence, and closer eco
nomic relations between the United
States and the Philippines"
Here is what Governor Harrison,
who has been for six years governor
general of the islands, said on the
subject Of Philippine Independence
while speaking at the Knickerbocker
club IN New York:

 keepsie. Returning to his home town
 he was for a time employed ill the grist mill business and still later in insurance. MT. Burt then decided to become pharmacist and enetred the employ of c. R. Fay at East Hampton, remaining with the firm for five years. He came to Putnam in 1873 and went with the Sampson Drug store. This store was burned out in a fire that swept the section of the city where it was located. MT. Burt then went with the firm of Aldrich & Davenport, drug glSts, after a time buying the interest of G. D. Aldrich. Another fire ds-

Daisy crimsoned with an effect

me sure 1t was a guilty conscience
that dictated her reply:

I've done nothing to warrant it.
