How to Free ireland.

The independence of Ireland is now
within reach of the Irish people but
not the sovereignty of isolation, that
will never be. If any citizen thinks
differently there is very simple solu-
ton of the problem he can suggest.
Let the irish people migrate to this
country in body and establish an
Irish republic over here. None of
our senators can object. They might
try Florida or Maine and by putting
into practice their fight against au,
thority as carried on in Ireland might
gain their freedom. AS we have no
objection to those practices as car.
ried on in Ireland we could have no
objection if they were practiced here.
The aversion to the English govern.
ment is due to the broken pledges and
the blockade of all political reforma.
ton by the Conservative and Unionist
parties in the House of Lords at West
minister. They are responsible for the
bitter hatred in Ireland today.

Thoughts Of the Today
Medicine Men.

"It is high time that the people of
the State Of New Jersey realize that
the legislature at Trenton is not a
fit and safe body to intrust with the
making of laws regarding the public
health" Such is the publicly ex
pressed opinion of DR.. Harrison S.
MARYLAND of the Newark City Hos
pital, speaking before the Essex Coun-
ty Medical Society. Well, what do
you expect, when lot of political
fakirs get into Office by appealing to
the booze appetites of mentally weak
voters? The passage of the laws per-
hitting, nay, encouraging $50 per
cent of alcohol in can of suds shows
the quality of the saloon Darkroom
sympathizers in the assembly at Tren-
ton. Possibly many of these do con-
suit a ouija board, a rabbits foot and
a horse chestnut, as the doctor sug-
gests.

EMERALDE CLUB TO
HAVE BASEBALL TEAM

A number of the members of the
Emeralde Club were present for base
ball practice when the first try-Outs
for the club team were made on Friday
afternoon.
The talent proved to be exceptional
ly good, and there is no doubt that this
strong organization will have & strong
nine on the diamond this season. At
the next meeting of the club a coach
for the team will be chosen.
In the catching department the club
is extra strong with Archie Menshing,
Fred Guergel and Emil Meadler trying
for the position. 1t may be said that
this is the best trio of catchers around
this section
There are several promising pitch
ers among them. Those who seem the
best are Charles Glynn, Happy Miller
and Howard Murray, south-paws, and
Jack Carroll, Bobby Smith and John
Damis, right handlers. There are also
many aspirants for the infield and the
gardens.

Popular Alabama Statesman.

In very recent years Alabama was
represented in the senate by two Con-
federate generals, John 7. Morgan and
Edmund w. Pettus. Morgan's great
reputation as an orator and statesman
had long eclipsed his reputation as a
soldier. Pettus was one of the most
original and delightful patriarchs who
ever sat in the senate. He had fought
in the Mexican war as well as In the
Civil war, and didn't come to Wash
ington until he was seventy-six years
old. Pugh, his predecessor. had re-
fused to indorse him for appointment
as federal judge, on the ground that
he was "too old" "If I'm too old to
be a judge" said Pettus. ''Tm not too
old to be senator" So che made a
campaign for Pugh's seat and won it.

EASTER JOY AT
THE HIPPoDRoME.

Easter time is always a joyous
period at the Hippodrome and Charles
Dillingham's Happy Days" prepared
the customary special holiday features
in celebration of the occasion. A new
Easter ballet was introduced in the
gorgeous Flower ballet with the
premiere dancers impersonating the
Easter lily, and in the Book Shop scene
rabbits romped from the book covers,
while the Riddles in the Dormitory
scene enjoyed an egg rolling pastime
for the amusement of "Puck," Cupid
and the other characters. The circus
feature of the big spectacle, introduced
lately by "Poodles" Hanneford and the
HannefOrd Family, and by Powers
Elephants, are also to be retained
throughout the coming week.

Vindictive Mercy.

Logic is curious thing, and the
possession of it sometimes leads to
strange conclusions, but not so strange
as to the conclusions of those who do
not possess it. We read great deal
nowadays about the abolition of CAPT.
tai punishment. Those who advocate
it invariably declare that the substitu-
ton of life Imprisonment is far more
dreadful. Logic will tell us that if this
Is the case then those who advocate
capital punishment are much more
merciful than those who wishiits aboli-
ton. Why should We try to inflict a
more severe sentence than death? Are
these people revengeful?

PASSING OF BENDER's HOTEL.

An advertisement in this issue OF
ment of Walter Bender from the hotel
and saloon business in Cliffside Park
Borough. This noted resort has been
running for over twenty-five years,
and is one of the most noted places in
Bergen county. AS road house 1t
was famous long before the automobile
began it's entry into the business and
pleasure world. And after autos got
to be steady diet, Bender's attained
great fame. Locally, it was headquar-
politicians of the county and borough
and the owner was for many years a
member of the old large board of
Chosen FreehOlders. He claims credit
for the reduced Communication trolley
fares to the Edgewater ferry, as it was
through his persistent efforts that they
were finally granted. In local politics
Bender has built up a great name for
his aggressive opposition to many So
called reforms, and anything like ex-
cessive taxation wought him up to the
highest pitch. He is an interesting
speaker, and when running on high
speed, as he often does, he wakes
things up. He has great following in
the lower end of the borough, and has
made a great record as fighter
But Bender is getting along in years,
and his desire to sell his resort is clear
indication that he does not see any
chance for Governor Edwards to win
against the Eighteenth Amendment.
The passing of Bender's is a sign OF
the times.

The blood in my veins is mingled,
English, Scotch and Irish. With a
somewhat similar ancestry. some years
ago, Baron Speck Won Sternburg, who
was ambassador of Germany. to the
United States prior to the recent war,
boasted himself an American. was
present at a banquet in Berlin one
night when. responding to personal
toast, he rose and said: my father
was German. my mother was Scotch
and was born in England; that
makes me an American"

with more enthusiasm at that moment
than it would be today.-Melville e.

AMAZING ARRANGEMENT.

One of the most amazing Statements
ever made about political degradation
was told this week in an interview or
statement in the Hudson Observer on
Monday last by William p. Verdon, Re-
publican leader-manager for the Hiram
Johnson forces in New Jersey. YER
don't statement is about saloons and
prohibition. He tells of the many trials
and tribulations of the old time saloon
under the rulership of the breweries
who dominated political parties so
completely that they were overawed-
souls their own. Verdon's statements
are so extraordinary that mere synop-
sis of what he said would not suffice
to state the case Understandings. His
one aim was to tell how bad the sa-
looms were and to let it be known how
much of strangle hold the brewers
really held. There is nothing like this
statement in the literature of Ameri-
can politics perhaps. In its way it is
classic, and his arraignment is mas
terpiece of it's kind. VerdOn was at
one time saloon keeper-admits it
and knows all of the evils of the trade
of selling liquor. AS a sample of what
he says about how saloons were PRO
tected," listen to this sweet morsel:
Their (the brewers) interests were
always purely selfish. 1t was of no
concern to the brewer whether the sa-
loon was operated legitimately or as a
disorderly house, the collector called
every week or two, aDd if at any time
the proprietor of ddsorderly house or
: diye of any kind got into trouble the
collector would Immediately get in
touch with politicians to square mat
tiers for the customer
Verdon brings up the type of saloon
that sold what was called scat" a
cheap five cent whisky, which general
ly killed those who drank it in one or
two years. But the saloon keepers ac-
tually had the temerity to INSURE
THE SCAT DRINKERS, so that when
they died they would be reimbursed
for the poison they sold them on cred
it. Again bringing in the brewers con-
nected with this part of the game of
poisoning the public, Verdon says fur
Their: "Although the brewers knew of
these conditions, they never made any
attempt to remedy them, being salts
fled so long as they received payment
of their bills"
Verdon, of course, is not the only re-
formed saloon keeper, but all of the
converts of the McCauley Mission
piled on top of each other and num-
bering thousands never made such
astounding revelations as Verdon does
in this statement He says, further,
that Governor Edwards is making no
provision against these awful cOndi-
the saloon and return to $50 beer.
But there need be no fears about the
Eighteenth amendment being declared
unconstitutional by the United States
Supreme Court. 1t will never happen,
and, however much the general public
may wish the return of the old days,
but under REGULATION" it is now too
fate to preach regulation" The brew
ers had the chance of their lives and
were duly warned time and again. IT
Is far cry from the old shibboleth of
the saloons to their unquenchable de-
sires now.
