Treaty Advocate Springs
Bombshell by Reading
Alternative.
VIOLATES SECRET,
SAYS PRESIDENT
Call for Vote on Ratifica-
ton Is Expected
On Thursday.

DUBLIN. Dec. 90. The Dali
Eireann has once more adjourned.
after witnessing the most telling
blow yet delivered at Eamonn de
Valera and his program. A vote for
ratification of the Irish treaty proo-
ably will not be called before Thurs
day, although the Dali Eireann will
reassemble tomorrow morning at IL
O'clock for a continuance of the
debate.
In the midst of a slashing attack
on De Valera's policy, Zaen Milroy,
a deputy supporting Arthur Griffith
and the treaty, sprang a bom5shell
by reading in open session the
oath" prescribed by De Valera as
acceptable to him The oath" made
no mention of the republic, but
pledged allegiance to the King
differing in its wording only slightly
from the oath prescribed by the
treaty.
Surprises His Opponents.
Milroy wrung from De Valera the
admission that he has an alternative
document, "in slightly differeny
form but substantially the same
as the peace treaty signed in
London.
Then I am going to publish it,
Arthur Grifith interjected.
Il am going to fight to finish, y
Milroy continued. How would you
like the following oath instead OF
the oae in the treatyT Thereupon
he read from a document taken from
his pocket:
IT swear to bear faithful allie
glance to the constitution Of Ire
land and to the treaty Of assocfa
ton of Ireland with the Britisl
commonwealth of nations, and &
recognize the King of Great Britain
as the head of the Associated
| States"
rs that more acceptable than tn,
other OATH" he demanded.
"Nor shouted De valera's fol
lowers.
Then" Milroy said dramatically
II am surprised! The cat IL GU
OF the bag. That is De valera
own OATH"
'Unfair:. Shssts De Valera.
Immediately the Dali burst int

A heated exchange then tool

leader demanded immediate publ

to which De Valera finally agreed

Mifroy Scores President
Il am amazed at the Presidents
tactics" Milroy resumed, "in trying
to keep secret the document which
is neither for the republic nor fol-
separation, but which supports hi,

/ IF war should break out, 1t would
! be for De Valera's shadow"
Reading the De Valera oath again
| Milroy said: That is De Valera'i
shadow. Now you know what you
are going to war for"
At the conclusion of the session
| Speaker MacNeil told correspondents
that it was doubtful that a vote or
ratification or rejection would be
reached before Thursday.

Living Ask Ratification;
Proxies for Dead Oppose

DUBLIN, Dec 2o.-The struggle
in Dali Eireann over ratification or
rejection OF the Anglo-Irish peace
treaty today definitely assumed the
character of battle between the liv-
ing and the dead. The dead were
represented by old men and widows
and the living by young men who
have fought in the battle for Ire
land independence and survived.
The living are all in favor of the
ratifications and the proxies for
the dead against.
So far everything indicates that
the living will win. Occasionally
the proxies for the dead are louder
in their appause but that is to be
expected from men and women to
whom their policies are their re-
ligion.
Woman stirs Assembly.
The most dramatic feature of this
mornings session was the speech
made by Mrs. Mary O'Callaghan, the
widow of the murdered lord mayor
of Limerick. 1t was a. masterpiece
of closely reasoned oratory and
even IL 1t had not been, Mrs. O'Cal-
laghan's appearance would have
made 1t effective. She is a woman
of great beauty and education, she
dresses in the most fashionable
Paris mourning and she is devoted
not only to the memory of her hus-
band but to the cause that both
stood for. Add to this a real gift
for oratory and you have a combi-
nation bound to affect any assem-
bly,.
Does any one question my right
to criticise and condemn the treaty?
want 1t understood here and now
that have the clearest right in the
world. paid a big price for the
treaty and my right to stand here.

Why am ! a widow? Was II that

GOOD SERVICE
ATPOWER PLANT
REPAIRS AND NEW INSTALLA-
TIONS AGAIN MAKES SER
VICE DEPENDABLE.

Owing to machine and battery trou-
bic at the plant of the Washington
Light and Power Co. for the past sew
eral weeks, it has been impossible to
is-ue the Telegraph with punctuality.
a. Is with pleasure that we announce
TO our readers, however, that new in
stallations made at the plant this week
has overcome this trouble and the city
again has 4 dependable twenty-four
hour electric service.
AS the telegraph depends entirely
on electric motors for power for some
Of the machines, the impossibility of
running them without available cleo
tricity can readily be seen.
This is the second issue of the Tele-
graph off the press this week, as last
weeks issue did not go to press until
Monday night.

ty during the year. Besides carrying
four pages Of advertising in the last
issue Of the Telegraph, thousands Of
large sale bills have been distributed.
Mr.. Henry and Rev. H. w. Stingley
have made a tour Of several sections
Of the county, distributing sale bills
from their car. These advertising
wizards even invaded numbers of
school houses On the rounds, and they
are credited with having delivered a
number of "orations." 1t is said that
while Mr.. Henry was pointing out the
wonders of the sale to the elder stu
dents and inviting them to attend, the
Rev. Stingley would amaze the smaller
ones with tales of adventure in which
,heir "deddies" figured when this Sec
ton was a part of the wild and woody

says that more than half the quota of
10000 bales has already been signed
up and that the movement is meeting
with favor in every county in the
state.
"The Texas Farm Bureau Cotton
Growers Asso. is getting an average
of $1,000 per bale, net, over the street
prices by selling direct to the spinners
and selling comparatively" says Mr..
Erwin. "There is no question but what
it works. Oklahoma expects to have
ninety-fve per cent Of the. cotton

Texas they are now signing up at the
rate of xixty day, or 1900 a month,
