Bishop Cohalan
 Says Treaty Is
 Boon To Ireland

CORK, Dec. 9.-BishoY Daniel Co., halan, in an interview today on the subject of the Anglo-Irish agreement said:
 '1 think it is a magnificent set tlement and that our negotiators had a great triumph to secure such a peace. Ireland has now secured a system under which she can develop hef full powers"
 If the Irish people are disap- pointed at not getting a republic, Bishop Cohalan said, he thought that only after 30 to 50 years under a scheme like the present settlement would the people of Ireland be in a position to form a well-grounded opinion as to whether it was better to be an independent republic or a free state in the British common wealth.

THE WEEKLY PApfm

The editor OF a little weekly paper down 1t Midland,
8 D, has been scooping the big city dathes by recefytnx
news bulletins by wireless and printing them soma time
before the big dailies could get the same news to thu
local people. This Is . stroke Of enterprise which his
suoscr4eers should appreciate and which, perhaps. they
90 appreciate But, after an, it Is only occasionally that
the weekly paper can perform Z tat OF that sort. The
country has become so tnteriaced with. railroads and
man routes that 1t is only In the more remote sectors
where a daily paper is not received q few hours alter ts
publication. In the field Of current general news the To-
ca weekly cannot compete with the daily except on rare
occaaons Where such competition Is attempted re<u-
lariy and successfully. the weekly evolves BY natural pro-
cess INTO the daily, with varying reeults.
But this sort Of competition, while Impossible as a
rule Is also utterly unnecessary. The weekly newspaper
can do much better than undertake a losing competition
with tho daily in a field for which the daily, is specially
that is all its own. which the daily cannot serve, and
~ which has a legitimate reason for it's existence, and
which lives up to its Opportunities, Is distinctvety tho
home paper and the family paper. It can present each
week a summary Of the news Of its ne,ghborhood, news
which would often be Of no interest to, the outside reader,
but which means a great deal to the people Of the COM
naua7ty. It can discuss propoeed local improvements and
aid In the solution Of local problems. It can ala In the

CHIEF JUSTICE TAFT.

In his appointment to the position Of chief 1ustace Of
the United States supreme court, william 81. Taft finds
the realization OF an honorable ambition entertained dur
Ing the greater part Of a busy and useful life. And, while
Mr.. Tart undoubtedly appreciated the honor which had
come TO him in being chosen president Of the United
States, It Is quite certain that In his mind even that honor
was not, to him. an acceptable substitute for the judicial
position which he hal long hoped to I'LL, a position which
had several times receded into the distance lust when It
seemed within reach
Mr.. TAFT started ont with q strong liking and aptitude
for judicial work. In 50 far as he could make it 90 his
professional career was one long course OF training for
that work. Placed upon the bench, he served there with
distinction for years, and Il was only in response to what
he interpreted as the imperative call OF duty that he re-
and executive work. The logic Of circumstances made
brought to THAT office a higher sense Of duty; but much
Of the work was foreign to him, and there is doubtless
no e1asgeratton in the statement that on retiring from
that position he felt Ike a boy tt out Of school since
then, as a private citizen occupying a unique position, he
has served his country capably In MAN. useful ways, and
always his conduct has been in keeping with the dignity
which must forever surround the high office which he
had filled.
Chief Justice Taft win be an clement Of strength on
the supreme bench. He Is the first e1-president who has
ever occupied that position and, while If his own tastes
had governed, he would have been on the supreme bench
for these many years. there can be no doubt that his e1-
pe-tence as administrator In the Philippines. as secretary
Of war and as president, and his subsequent work as a
private citizen, have 50 rounded and enriched his Lfe that
he will be a greater Judge than he could possibly have
been without them. .a.

RAIN.
The thirsty ground drank eagerly the
rain,
The roses filed their petaled cups
with giee.
The drink was sweet to every plant
and tree,
1t brought new life unto the growing
grain
And set the brooks to babbling once
again;
The world was made a lovely thing
to see,
Saved for the harvest was the fruit
to BE-
The springttne had not done It's work
in vain!
Too much Of sunshine makes a bar
rem earth,
Parched is the soil which never
feels the rain.
The spirit withers under too much
mirth,
Beauty is born Of trial and Of pain.
