Keithly Lake as well as near the

What Dublin Thinks.

Dublin, Feb. 24.--(By Associated Press )--"rhere was abundant evi- dence yesterday that the three months pact arranged at the Ard Fheis for the purpose of securing unity in the ranks of the Sim Fein organization has brought relief to the great body of the Irish republic" writes the correspondent of the Free mans Journal.
 Suggestions that the agreement !n- volved victory for one side or ihe other were naturally to be heard, but the general disposition was to dis miss them as futile and mischievous.
 'The one thing uppermost in the peoples minds was that split in the national organization had been averted for the moment. The prob ahi'itv of such d division having to be faced later is not to be ignored, but there can be no doubting the general at knowing that it is not to come now and the earnest hope prevails that things will so shape
 0S that it can be avoided al-
