UNCERTAINTY IN IRELAND.

Dali Eireann resumed it's sessions
at Dublin. yesterday, for a further
consideration OF the peace pact with
England, involving the erection of
ireland into a Free State. but the dis
quieting announcement is made that
the discussion may last another week
Friends of the treaty, OF course. are
desirous OF exploiting it's assuring
promises. while all its opponents seem
determined to give public expression
10 the reasons for their opposition.
But while the general opinion is that
the arrangement will be ratified by
this Irish Parliament. there is fur
ther disquietude in the ominous
threats OF some of the opponents of
any arrangement short OF complete
independence for ireland that even
after approval they will not cease
their opposition and their resistance
20 such a settlement. This, 1t is con-
ceded, would be a great misfortune
and might delay for a long while the
determination OF this vexatious ques-
ton.
Public sentiment in Ireland appar-
entity tavors entering upon the pro-
posed experiment of an Irish Free
/ State and there is no doubt that SEN
| timent among the warm friends of the
\ Irish cause in our country is to the
same effect. 1t favors acceptance
OF the pact. with view to discerning
! its merits or its failures. And moth
! ing but actual experience will prove
how far 1t will go towards securing
for Ireland what the people OF ireland
have longed for and have been patri-
oticelly contending for these man.
