Dark Days For Ireland

After many weeks of negotiations the prospects
for settlement of the Irish controversy be
unavorable than ever before. Nothing short of inde-
pcndence will satisfy the Irish republicans, tho they
profess willingness to enter Independent nation
into treaty of union with the British empire Against
such plan the people of Ulster unaltcrably opposed
and thus far they have shown disposition to
to such proposal for Irish autonomy as the
British government would be willing to approve.
There appears at the present time to be nothing
else for ireland than choice between complete indie
pendencc and attempt coercion by military power
1t might be interesting to speculate upon what would
happen if the Irish given their independence The
sures way Of convincing people that they really
do not want what they demand is to give it to them An
actual experience of Irish independence, followed by
admission of Ireland to the British empire upon terms
just and reasonable to all concerned, would be the
surcst way TO settle the Irish question forever.
Difficult such experiment would bo its cost
money and trouble might be far less than what would
be involved in attempt to Ireland by force

unfortunately there is method by which the truth

In this as in many other things, truth is not alto

The writers, striving to satisfy the public

of a sale of municipal bonds to a Den

Councilman Frank Vinegar and

doing cause thousands of dollars loss

recently been painted the paint on the
car is ruined with subsequent loss OF
$50 or 500 to the owner. Rubber
hose is often cut with loss to owner,
gates torn from hinges. clothes lines
cut. lumber and other lost articles
are also removed from yards. Prob
