ESPTTE the vigorous action of the
- government In Berlin, the monarch
lists have been stirring up trouble
In many places in Germany. These
were aggravated by the antt-monarch-
list demonstrations that were staged
on July 4 by the Democrats and Social
lists. One of the incidents Of the
week was the attempt to assassinate
Macmillan Harden, the famous edi-
tor who is so thoroughly hated by the
reactionaries.
There is a movement on foot in
Germany that is likely to upset the
cabinet Of Chancellor Wirth and re-
suit in the formation of a purely
soriallst1c government in place Of the
present one, which is a coalition of
minorities. To forestall this, an offer
has been made to the Independent

TN HIS Fourth of July speech at
L the celebration In Marion, o., Presi-
dent Harding had some significant
things to say of the industrial situa-
ton. For instance:
"a free American has the right to
labor without any others leave. 1t
would be no less an abridgement to
deny men the right to bargain cOllec-
lively. Governments can not tolerate
any class or group domination through
force. 1t will be a sorry day when
group domination is reflected in our
laws. Government, and the laws
which government is charged with en-
forcing, must be for all the people,
ever aiming at the common good"
Disclaiming any note of pessimism,
he asserted that the republic is secure.
"Menaces do arise" he added, but
public opinion will efface them. Mean
while government must repress them"
These of course are truisms, but it
is well that they should be repeated
from time to time by the voice of
highest authority.
General P%ershing, who also spoke at
the Marion celebration, was loudly ap-
plauded when he advocated fearless
use of "the strong arm of the law in
communities which "openly sympa-
thize with ruthless murder of inof-
fensive people in the exercise of the
right to earn a livelihood"

CAPTURE of the Four Courts build
~ ing in Dublin by the troops of the
Irish Free State by no means ended
the bloody conflict with the republi-
can irregulars. The latter took re-
fuge in hotels and other buildings in
O'COnnell street and there continued
the battle until the shells of the regu-
lars set fire to almost every structure
in that part of the street. The con-
lagration could not be stopped and
most of the rebels surrendered. De
Valera, who was with them, was said
to have escaped in disguise and fed
to County Wicklow. Cathal Brugha,
minister of defense in the De Valera
cabinet, refused to surrender and was
seriously wounded. Among the pris-
oners wac Mrs. Terence McSwiney,
widow of the late lord mayor of Cork,
and Rory O'COnner, commander of the.
irregulars. The provisional govern
ment Is now putting its entire military
establishment OF an active service
basis and has issued a proclamation
calling for recruits.
The republicans are preparing for
a final struggle in the vicinity of Cork.
That city is in their hands and, hav-
ing ~Skibbereen, they claim control Of
the entire county, as well as Of Coun-
ties Kerry and West Limerick, Water
ford, East Limerick and parts Of TIP

GRASSY SOUND NEWS AND SOME,
THING ABOUT THE NEW ROAD
NOW BUILDING

The WOTk on the ROAD from Bur
leigh to Anglesea, a much delayed i'm
provement, is now progressing rapidly
and this much dreamed of necessity
will soon be a fine reality. The build
ing of the road and the erection of the
bridge at Grassy Sound will be of
more commercial value to Anglesea
than any other improvement made in
years. Anglesea now seems a remote
section of Five Mile Beach, but it will
soon be a main entrance to the island.
Autoists coming to Wildwood now,
only get a view of the business section
of wildwood. After the bridge is built
they can come in at Anglesea and de-
part by the way of Rio Grande ave-
nue., thus getting an excellent tour of
the two municipalities.
At the present time there is only
one entrance to Five Mile Beach. Sup
pose hat a violent storm should rem
der the bridge along this highway i'm
passable? How would the large
motor trucks which bring fresh truck
and other ~perishable foodstuffs get
here to feed the scores of thousands
of visitors that come in during the
summer? Is the present freight SER
vice given by the two railroad COM
panies adequate to handle these food
stuffs for the length of time that it
would take to repair the bridge?
the average citizen has failed to give
due consideration, and yet he is apt
at any time to be confronted with
them. The completion of the new
highway and bridge will bring a sigh
of relief from others who have gone
deeply into the matter.
The course of the County Board of
Freeholders in their efforts to build
the thoroughfare has been a stormy
one. The Freeholders have been con-
fronted with many barriers and much
opposition and are now just beginning
to see a clear road for the awarding
of the contract to build the bridge.
The meadow lands along the proposed
route were owned by many individuals.
order to take the proper condem-
proceedings it was necessary
to notify the holders of this land, sew
eral of whom could not be located.
The public sentiment in other parts
of the county was not in favor of the
improvement. One obstacle followed
another and for several months pro-
gress was retarded by a lot of intri-
cate red tape. The Board must now
await the sanction of the State High
way Commission, the War Depart
ment and the Bureau of Navigation in
order to award the bridge contract.
Plans and specifications for the struct-
ure have been submitted to these three
bodies and it is probable that they will
judgment on them in a short
time. A few weeks ago the contract
for making borings to find a suitable
foundation was given to the Artesian
Well Drilling Company, of Philadel-
was awarded to the Hill Dredging
Company of Atlantic City. The same
jinx which visited the Freeholders has
also hindered the work of the two
companies. During the Fourth of July
rainy spell the barge of the boring
company filed with water and sank.
The barge contained tools and equip
ment and it required several days to
raise the barge and recover the tools.
The mud digger has had b%reakdowns
which delayed the work.

president HARDING's confe

president HARDINGS confer
L ence of representatives of the coal
mine operators and striking miners in
the White House brought no immediate
results, but hope of peaceful ADJUST
ment was not abandoned and the con-
ferees agreed to get together again

has in reserve some drastic govern
ment action if they fail to agree,
though he has not revealed its exact
nature.
In Kansas the coal miners who sup
ported the program of Alexander
Howatt and who, with their officials,
were expelled from the United Mine
Workers of America, have decided to
return to work, that being the only
way they could recover their autonomy
and be restored to membership in the

HOUSE PASSES THE
SOLDIERS BONUS BILL
Measure Is Approved Under So-Called
Gag Rule by Vote of
333 TO 70.

Washington, March 24-The fight
for the soldiers bonus with the sales
tax was transferred to the senate.
when the house, under gag rtrie, passed
the certificate bonus scheme by a vote
of 333 to 70, four voting present. The
bill carries total of $4,000,000.O00 ex-
tending over 20 years, but has no pro-
vision for raising the revenue.
The certificate proposition was
forced through the house with leaders
on all sides admitting that the measure
would be materially changed in the
senate, where consideration of the
bonus bill will be begun within a few
days by the senate committee
Leaders of the sales tax fight In the
house voted for the certificate bill.
They explained, however, that they
did so because they had been placed in
position by Republican house leaders
where they were not permitted to offer
amendments to the ways and means
committee bill, and were forced to vote
for the certificate measure or be
recorded as opposing the soldiers
bonus altogether.
1t was admitted on the floor of the
house that President Harding will veto
the measure if it should be passed by
the senate in any other form than with
the c,-sh bonus restored and the sales
tax attached to finance it.
