TERRIBLE THINGS ARE. DONE IN IRELAND NOW.
 LETTER HERE STATES'

That Ireland is undergoing one of the darkest and storrniest periods in it's history is information contained in a letter received by John Brick, living six miles west Of this city, from his 1 cousin. David Mahoney, of Ballinorig, County Kerry, Ireland. In this letter is described the deplorable conditions now existing in the little isle. Some parts of the letter are unprintable and others depict with realism the miser- able plight that the Irish people are in. According to MT. Mahoney's letter. the police and British soldiers are I waging campaign of pitiless perse- cution, notwithstanding the reports of 1 the British government to the con- trary. The Sim Fein prisoners are beaten unmercifully and the singing of an Irish song is a cardinal crime, call 1 ing for the most drastic punishment, the letter states. Beating the prison CTS with chains has become a common l occurrence and the cries of these un- fortunates, in many instances, can be heard outside the walls of the prisons, the cousin writes.
 Referring to the death of the lord mayor of Cork, he asserts that 1t has been proven beyond peradyenture that the lord mayors death was caused by the police and not by the Sim Feiners, as charged by the British.
 In concluding his letter, MT. Maho- ney says that the Irish people are praying that America will be acquaint- ed with the true state of affairs and that they hopefully await the coming elections in the fall when they expect to see new president elected who will be favorable to Ireland.
 Following are some excerpts from the letter:
 You think the Ireland of your time is the Ireland of today, but it is not It is an Ireland of misfortune and hardships caused by the people who called for justice for all small na- tions at the outbreak of the war in order to get the U. $. to help them when they were not able to beat the Germans by themselves. IL would put a tear in the eye of a Turk to see our brave lads taken from their beds at the dead of night for nothing but for the love of Ireland If people sing an Irish song they get the butt end of I rifle. The taxes are beyond the limit Of the people. It would be better for man to be dead now than alive under the British government The Sim Fein prisoners can be heard one mile away from the prison shouting pite- ously through the warder's beating hem with chains. The soldiers are
 aken to the prison to beat them. too. of course It is now known that the police shot the lord mayor of Cork. There arc a lot of police leaving the -orce through the cruel act. The Brit 1 isll soldiers waylay girls on the streets 1 and they are never punished. The sol 1 diers go through the streets breaking l shops open and robbing them and they l are not brought to order. There is 1 lothing now here for us but destruc- 1 tion

OBJECT TO THE PERMIT
Prohibition Leaders Join In Re-
quest That Government Put
End To Practice
lAssociated Press Ddspatch.l

Washington, November 20.-Prohibi-
ton leaders today protested to the
government enforcement officers
against the reissuing Of permits to
wholesale liquor dealers to handle in
toxicatiDg liquors. The claim was
made by Wayne B Wheeler, counsel
for the Anti Saloon League that is
suance of the permits to liquor deal
ers, not manufacturers. or wholesale
druggists, was not authorized by the
volstead act. The permits which are
outstanding, expire automatically
Mr.. Wheeler appealed TO the pro-
hibition officers not to grant renew
ais, asserting that the permits had
facilitated the liquor to beverage use.
Result Not DssIrapfe.
Even N It Is permissible to issue
the permits" Mr.. Wheeler contended,
1T Is not compulsory and the disas
trous experience Of the last year. in
Connection with these permits, fur
nishes sufficient proof to show the
wisdom and necessity for rejecting
the wholesale permits as q whole"
Mr.. Wheeler insisted issuance of
the permits was in conflict with the
expressed purpose of the Volstead Act
to prevent the use of intoxicating
liquor as a beverage"
He declared abuse Of the privileges
conveyed by the permits was common
and consumption Of liquor as a bev-
erage was increased thereby. Eight
organizations were parties to the
protest.

They Gathered Up About All
The Game In That
Neighborhood

Eagle Lake, November 20.-The an
nual hunt Of the gunner OF Eagle

a great success. About thirty men
began a hunt early In the morning
with instructions that all game was to
be in the possession of the Judges not
later than eight o'clock in the even
ing. John Compton and Robert Ha-
mie were the captains Of the respec-
tive sides. At the appointed hour

follows: Grey rabbits. f25: jack rab-
bits. 2; grey squirrels, 16; red SPUR

bits; F. N. Kisro bagged the chipmunk
and M. B. Cook a white OWL j. N.
Compton's men won over those Of Ro-
bert Hamiel by 1880 points as against

banquet on the side Of Mr.. Hamlet and
his trusty followers. But 1t must be

defeat was borne with the spirit Of
true sports. 1t was also the rule OF
the hunt that all game was to go to
the loosing side. This they sold to
Mr.. HermansoE o. Mankato. Mr.. j.
N Compton won SIS in bets from var
ious members OF the enemies camp,

ices of Mr.. Anderson, the photograph

both sides. The dinner Is to be fur
