PEACE CONFERENCE
 S|DEL|GHTS GIVEN
 BY ANDRE TARD|EU
PEACE CONFERENCE
 IRepubIican A. p. Leased Wire1

PARIS, April 3-Captain Andre Tardieu, one of the French delegates his articles in LIllustration dealing with the peace treaty of Versailles, dwells at length on what he terms the question of silence" and gives some interesting sidelights on the peace conference.
 Captain Tardieu recalled how the press placed great hope in the first of President Wilson's fourteen points. which demanded that conventions be prepared with the Knowledge of the general public. But he says it's hopes were dashed when it became known that President Wilson himself de- clared this did not mean the making public of negotiations, but referred only to making public the debates on engagements made before they be- came definite.
 Former Premier Clemenceau is de- clared to have been the greatest ad- vocate of publicity. but asserts M. Clenenceau's efforts in this direction were not seconded by the allied gov ernments. which arc said to have re- fused even his proposal to make pub lie the terms of the treaty when it was ready to be handed to the Germans. They permitted only a summary to be published before the treaty was signed.
 Captain Tardieu quotes M. Clemen- ceau as having said.
 There Is general expectation among the public which desires that all the subjects of our deliberations be known. It is to our advantage to show it the results of our work"
 Difficulties began at once which continued to be multiplied for the next six months" comments Captain Tar dieu. If the conference had not been held in France, the French government would have been accused of defending French rights, but Frances position was complicated by the conferences being held in France. The press and hospitality received from France inn posed on France the special duty of protection for their benefit"
 To the suggestion that if the public had been informed on peace confer ence doings. France would not have been obliged always to yield to the al- lies, Tardieu replied:
 Tt is false that France yielded. Gen. orally on the contrary. she obtained satisfaction"
 He then gives list of points pro- posed which France succeeded in hav- ing changed Among them were i'm mediate admission to the league of na- tions. no inter allied occupation of the left bank of the Rhine. no Frnch 0c- cupation except perhaps for IS months: France to pay for all state property in Alsace-Lorraine; no cession of the Saare mines to France and no special regime for the Saare population.

Dublin Safeguarded Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

tnCPdoh@du rNs Ts GCSSCN NNHCl ! DUBLIN, April 3.-(By the As- sociated Press). - The military pre- i cautions in Dublin exceed anything | of the kind seen since Easter, 1915. ! Particular attention Is being paid by | the military cordon around the city to loads of hay, which are probed with 1 bayonets, while even the suburban | street cars are stopped and the pas sengers searched for arms.
 At Finglas, on the north side of the city, the military have taken possess sion of some unoccupied houses and appear to contemplate a stay of few days. St. Enid's college at Rathfarn- | ham, formerly conducted by Patrick PearSe. who was executed during the rebellion of 1916, is also occupied by soldiers. They have erected a barri- cade with barbed wire on the roads outside of Cottonwood house, in Rane- lach, where Pearse's mother lives, and the Children's school kept by Miss Duffy, sister of George Gavan Duffy, who was identified with the defense of Sir Roger Easement and Sim Feiu representative at Paris. The residence of Mrs. Humphrey sister of Theo. O'Reilley, who was killed in the street fighting at the time of the rebellion. | was searched and Mrs. Humphreys son -in-law. a student, was arrested. Military Amply Prepared An armored car is stationed at the entrance to Kingston pier to reinforce the military guard there. Soldiers un- loaded fresh supplies of ammunition at Northwall and conveyed it in mot6r cars, protected by armored cars, through the city.
 Dispatches from various parts of the country indicate a similar state of af- l fairs at Derry. Tipperary, Newry, Linn erick and other places.

 We are confronted with a sys- tematic violation of article 43 of the treaty. Bad faith in the explanations offered by the German government for its alleged mistake is evidenced by the despite our interdiction.

following passage occurs in his "Jour'

published in London in 1880:
The name of peppermint tree has
been given to this plant by Mr.. White
on account Of the very great resem'
5lance between the essential Oil drawn
from it's leaves and that obtained from
the peppermint (Mentha piperlta}
which grows in England. This OIL
was found by Mr.. White to be much
more eficacious in removing all
chol;cky complaints than that of the
Ene,lSh peppermint. which he attrib'
utcs 10 its being less purlvnt and
more aromatic.
White not only used the oil in n. 5
Wales, but sent some to England. lie
cot it from tree which be called
Eucalyptus piperita, hut Which was
afterwards renamed Z. capitellata.
