Though attacked bitterly by the OPP
position press and members of parli-
ament for this Dublin affair as well
as for its Irish policy generally, the
government defended its position with
extraordinary tenacity, and to support
it made public captured documents
which were said to expose Sim Fein
plots for a campaign of terrorism in
England, including assassinations and
the destruction of property by dyna-
mite and fire. In the house of COM
mons Wednesday night Lloyd George
scored a notable victory. Former Pre-
mier Asquith moved a resolution *
pressing adherence of the Dublin as
sassinations and condemning the re-
prisals and urging immediate steps
to pacify Ireland. Col. John Ward by
an amendment changed the motion
into an expression of admiration for
the courage of the crow forces in
Ireland, and this was adopted by a
vote of 303 to SO, amid the cheers Of
the governments supporters.

Peace negotiations between Poland
and soviet Russia were resumed after
a lapse that threatened the renewal
of active hostilities. The Poles, how
ever, consented to withdraw their
troops to the armistice line. Moscow
notified Lithuania that the Red forces
would have to occupy Wilma, which is
still in the hands of General Zellgou-
ski. The soviet government has now
pretty nearly cleared Russia of all
its active opponents. Petlura's troops
have about all escaped from the Tx
raine into Poland and have been dis
armed there, and now it is Announced
that General Semenoff's campaign in
Siberia has collapsed entirely. His
last base has been taken by the Reds,
the corps that was defending it hav-
ing mutinied, killed its officers and
joined the Bolsheviki. Semenoff him
self has fled to Japan.

The row between the Western Union
Telegraph company and the admins
tration has reached the acute stage.
1t has to do with the laying of GER
tain cables at Biscayne bay, Miami,
Fla, permission for which was grant
ed some time ago. Connected with it
was the attempt to land a cable from
Barbados, which the Navy department
prevented. The company thereupon
declined to carry further messages for
the State department at reduced rates,
and the Navy department threatened
to destroy the bay cable if the con-
struction work was not stopped. The
company applied for an injunction to
restrain Secretary Daniels from in
t~erfering with the work, and the next
day Secretary of Wal Baker revoked
the permit for the laying of the ca
bles. The courts must now decide the
entire matter.

Unless the temper of the Greek peo-
pie changes, they will vote, on Deem
Der 8, for the return of Constantine
to the throne. This will be the logi-
cal outcome of the victory of GounariS

the new government is placed in a
somewhat uncomfortable position, for
to restore the ex-king will be to alien

that it will withdraw its material and
moral support, but it is not known
certainly what attitude Lloyd George
will assume. The Greek newspapers
favorable to Constantine assert that
Great Britain is willing to recognize
the right of Greece to manage her
own affairs and that King George is

operation of the entente allies, and,
too, they rely on the British to sup

complaint that the press censorship
was being continued and that their
dispatches were suppressed or de-

Paris had press dispatches from
Smyrna saying the Greek army in
Asia Minor was split into two camps,

An echo of the Irish trouble was
heard in New York Thanksgiving day,
when an anti-English mob undertook
to sack the Union club on Fifth ave-

THIS GRAIN TRULY GOLDEN"
How Discovery Of Prolific Gold Field
Was Made In Mysore, State
Of india.

One of the worlds most prolific gold
fields at the present time is in the
Kolar district (Mysore state) Of India.
Discovery Of 1t was made in a curious
way.
In prosperous years, when the gods
favored the valley with an ample har-
vest of rice, grains Of gold were found
now and then on rice ears. This great
ly mystified the natives. who ascribed
the gold to supernatural powers.
What probably happened was that
these grains, derived from the gravelly
soil, lodged on the young rice plants
when they were being grown in nur-
series (for subsequent transportation
| to the fields) and flooded at intervals
with water.
The strange occurrence, at first
deemed supernatural, led to the discov-
cry that the gravels of the valley were
rich in gold, brought down from the
mountains. Since then the Kolar dis
trict has contributed largely to the
worlds supply of the yellow metal.
