SHOULD LISTEN TO SHUTS!

Il is not yet too late for De Valera
and the Dali Eireann to follow the adj
vice given by Gen. SHUTS in his letter
OF Aug. 4. Now, as then, the greatest
remaining obstacle to an agreement
between the Sim Fein and the Brit
ish Government lis the cleavage be-
tween the North and South of Ireland
ard the South's insistence on unity
for the island.
Should De Valera and his Cabinet
stick to their contention that Belfast
and the six counties must come in on
any settlement that is made and cast
their lot with the majority they will
piece themselves in an untenable po-
sition. A nation lighting for its free
dem is entitled to sympathy, but If
|. will make terms Only on cdnattion
that another province equally fnde-
pendent in spirit will xaffdnder its
freedom the issue Is blurred ssvhi-
pathy for Dublin is cancelled by sym
pathy for Belfast.
Cen. SHUTS points out two incon-
trovertible reasons why the Southern
leaders should leave the North to its
own devices and accept the dominion
status which Premier Lloyd George
has offered. The North cannot afford
TO separate permanently from the
south. economic and political disad.
yantages will tend to render isolation
unpopular in the long run, but force
applied to bring Belfast into line
wsuld prove quite as effective as 1t
has proved in the South. Neither the
British Government nor an Irish Gov.
o-nment with its capital at Dublin
could coerce Craig and his followers.
Moreover, the South of Ireland once
established Is dominion would have
: voice in the policies OF the British
Empire such as no dominion had five
wears ago. Canada. Australia, and
South Africa have only recently won
;he high place in imperial councils
which is offered to Dublin without re.

Obituary-Mrs. Ella Burkh0lder

Ella V. Powders, born in Orrs-
town, Pa, Oct. 6, 1919, passed away
at the home of her daughter, Mrs.
Bertha Kugler, Sept ,, 1921, aged
II years, 10 months and 81 days.

w. Burkholder. She was one of the
early pioneers of this county, having
come to Kansas with her husband In
1880. They first settled In Rocks
county, where they lived five years
and then moved to Dickinson coun
ty. Mrs. Burkholder at an early age
united with the Lutheran church and
soon after coming to Kansas united
with the Presbyterian church of
which she was a faithful and con-
sistent member. Six children were
born to this union, four of whom
survive to mourn the loss of low
ing mother. They are: Price Burk-
holder, Ray Burkholder, Bertha
Kugler, all of Abilene, and Mary
Mcclellan of Wheatland, WyO. In
addition she leaves nine grandchil-
dren and host of friends and
all of whom were en-
deared to her.
The funeral took place at her
home in Abilene Sunday, Sept. 4,
1921 at 4 p. IN. and the internment
in the Abilene cemetery. The fun
eral sermon was preached by DR..

were endangered though hay stack

laid Is the electric wires where they
