Omitted Press Staff Correspondent
Dublin, April 24.-The secret Sinr
Fein Army of the Irish Republic
now aggregates more than 10000
men, according to claims made by
Sim Fein officials
Some hitherto unpublished details
of the organization and equipment
of this underground" army were
given the United Press by member
Of the Sim Feln cabinet who has
been active in the work OF organiza-
tion and holds high rank in the
army
He declared that the organization
is completely equipped with small
arms, such as rifles and revolyers
and "a certain amount of ammuni-
ton Most OF the troops have
their own uniforms. Owing to the
necessity Of keeping their equipment
hidden, each man is made RESPONSE
BILE for the custody and concealment
CT his own rifle and uniform. Nelth-
er the officers nor men receive any
pay.
"Our army is we'll organized in
companies, battaions and regiments
on exactly the same lines as any
either army" the Sim Feiner said

its company or battalion, which is
known by the name 0 the district.
For instance, here in Dblin there are
four battalions. I organized and
drilled the South Dublin battalion.
an spite Of the strict suryeillance
of the police and English troops,
drilling is going on constantly. AL
most every night within a few miles
of the center Of Dublin ! could show
you units of our army at drill. AT |
present most of our attention is cen. |
tered upon drilling for guerilla war
fare and scouting
THE men Of the Dublin battalionB !
are summoned to drill by couriers !
and advised Ct the time and exact |
spot-usually an isolated field In the
hills back of Dublin They stragge
in by foot or bicycle in their ordl-
nary clothes without arms of anyi
sort. It's too risky to attempt to
drill in uniform or with arms
"As matter Of fact, the drilling
now is mainly designed to keep up
the interest and spirit Of the men
and maintain the organization in
tact
"The drilling is usually held before
midnight to allow the men to get
home in plent yof time without ar
ousing suspicion. Sometimes we
hold drills in broad daylight ON Sun
days and holidays in out-of-the-way
places in the country nearby. Pick
cts are posted on all roads nearby
and signals arranged to warn of the
approch of police or troops
Naturally the names Of our Off
GERS are kept secret, but sometimes
they become known For instance,
the Lord Mayor of Cork was com
Of the Cork organization,
which was we'll known. In fact, we

"Of course, our equipment of arms

Senator Lodge: The trainers of the
constitution did not believe that any
man or any body Of men could safely
be intrusted with unlimited power.
They thought, and all experience justi-
fled them in thinking, that human ma
ture could not support the temptation
which unlimited power always brings.
They had deeply ingrained the belief Of
the English-speaking people that the
power of the king should be strictly
limited. They felt that this great
principle applied with equal force to
ten thousand or ten million kings-in
other words to a popular majority of
numbers. They established repre-
sentative democracy and thoroughly
popular government, but they thought
the fright divine of kings to govern
wrong" was as false a maxim when
applied to many men called voters as
when applied to one who happened to
wear crown.

Maria Sanford Dead.

Washington, April 21.-Dr. Maria
Sanford, professor emeritus of the
university Of Minnesota and best
known woman in the state, was found
dead in her bed at the home of Senator
Knute Nelson today. She was SO
years old.
Miss Sanford, who came here to at
tend the continental congress of the
Daughters Ct the American Revolu-
ton, apparently was in good health
when she retired last night.
When members Of Senator Nelson's
household went to her bedroom today
to summon her to breakfast it was
found that she was dead.
Physicians were called. They said
death was due to heart disease, proba-
bly, due to over exertion.

Three thousand reds have been or
dered deported by the government, but
what is the use Of ordering them de-
ported if they are permitted to re-
main in this country. If we mistake
not, several hundred aliens of like
stripe were ordered sent to their ma
tive land but few months ago and
nothing came Of it-thcy are still in
this country. The government has
framed up excuses for not sending
these undesirables across, but the
reasons are particularly f1imsy.t That
such enemies of our country are al
lowed to remain here is burning
shame.

INVESTIGATION NECESSARY.

It is fitting and proper that congress
is about to institute an Investigation
concerning government storage of
goods which could be readily sold upon
the market. During the period of the
war great waste was inevitable along
all lines, but that time is past. Harsh
and just criticism is undoubtedly due
Newton D. Baker for the lax business
methods followed in disposing of the
immense amount of materials accumu
lated by the government in prepare
ton for the continuation of the war
for two or three years longer than it
lasted.
It is estimated that $1,0OO,OO0,O0O
worth Of useful material is being
withheld from the market without ap-
parent sound reason. Practically all
of this material deteriorates with age
quite rapidly, such as lumber, tools
(farm tools and appliances of all de-
scriptions), trucks, automobiles, surgi-
cal instruments, etc. The market rs
Short and this shortage generally
has been definitely Influenced by the
great demand made by the govern
ment upon all lines of industry for
the army. The necessity for these
supplies long since ceased, and yet a
comparatively small amount has been
returned to the market. The govern
ment has lost by failure to sell when
supplies were in the best condition.
The people have been forced to buy
material from manufacturers at great
ly increased prices while a surplusage
of these same supplies are deteriorat-
ing in government warehouses. The
loss of the government is the loss of
the people and vice versatile people
are double losers in the end; in the
first place by government goods de-
teriorating in storage, and in the Sec
ond place by being forced to buy these
very goods at high prices upon
"short market" Meanwhile our taxes
increase.
The high cost of living is the prob
lem which confronts every American
today. It affects the business man and
farmer alike. Thorough business meth
DDS, avoidance Of waste in county,
state and national affairs is impera-
tive. Our taxes will be heavy for
years to come, and a dollar spent
should bring the greatest good to the
greatest number.

Harvey's Weekly: "This~ govern
ment," says the president, meaning
himself, ''is convinced that no ar
rangement that is now made concern
ing the government and control of
Constantinople and the Straits can
have any elements of permanency un-
less the vital interests of Russia in
those problems are carefully provided
for and protected" Yet it was only
a little while ago that he said: every
territorial settlement involved in this
war must be made in the interest and
for the benefit of the population con-
cerned, and not as part of any mere
adjustment or compromise of claims
among rival states" Which dictum is
to be obeyed?

The nerve of some people passeth
all understanding. DR.. Fritsche has
filed for governor as republican.
This is the individual who in 1917 was
removed from office by Governor Burn
quist for disloyalty, but he was recent
ly reelected to the mayoralty by the
people of the notorious city of New
Ulm as a "vindication." Disloyalty
cannot be indicated except by other
disloyalists, so it is not necessary to
dilate upon the action Of the voters
who elected Fritsche. AS guberna-
torial candidate, however, we predict
that Fritsche will find himself the tail

Lotus D. Coffman has been selected
by the board Of regents as president
of the state university to succeed
Marion L. Burton, resigned, at a sal
airy of $4,000 year. When you take
into consideration the fact that brick
layers in the big cities are earning
or rather being paid-from 500 to
$125 week, it doesn't seem worth
while for a father to spend a small
fortune in giving his son good edu-
cation.

he said, 81 feel that no patriotic Ameri-
can could decline to serve in that high
position (the presidency if called up
on to do so by the people," The great
trouble is that altogether too many

campaign-whereas only one can be
chosen. So large number of candi-
dates in the field has a tendency to
weaken the party.

How "WaIIop" Originated.

An incident of interest in English
and French history occurred in the
year 1914. The French fleet ravaged
the coast of Sussex and burned
Brighthelstone, now Brighton, where
upon Sir John Wallow, one of the best
naval commanders of his time. was
sent by Henry VIII to make reprisals,
In this he succeeded only too well; he
burned u French villages, demolished
several harbors, and thrashed the en-
envy to his hearts content. His men,
however, proud of his achievement, de-
clared that they had walloped the
French. Thus there came into the
English language as a synonym for
thrash the new word wallop.

It probably won't make much differ
ence who gets to be national commit

apt to be owing to the dissatisfaction
with the present Wilsonian democratic
one.-Red Wing Eagle (Dem.).
