making elaborate preparations to give to the visiting

MOB HYPNOIsNI

TNDER the influence OF that peculiar form OF psy-

savagery.

fifty miles hour through congested streets was pur-

The mob spirit hypnotzed them.
These fits of mob or social insanity happen in fash

WHO'S WHO IN IRELAND.

From the New York Tribune.
The business of determining who's
who in Dublin and southern Ireland
proceeds rapidly and wholesomely.
No doubt is TO be entertained of
the outcome or of its rightfulness.
The Irish Free State has shown the
most exemplary patience. Its gov
ernment cannot be accused of a
single hasty or militaristic act. 1t
has given De Valera and the small
minoriy ranged with him every
chance TO persuade the Irish people
to adopt De Valera's views. Instead
of being convinced they have firmly
and definitely decided the other way.
Such being the case, the presence in
Dublin of an armed force in open
rebellion could be met in only one
way
A vacation may be given to the
old joke that the Irish love a nght
for the fights sake. Under trying
the Irish government
and people have behaved singularly
well. 1t is as unfair to twit them
because of Rory O'Connor as It was
unfair to twit the men of Massa-
chusetts because of Daniel Shays
Domestic difficulties occur in the

Rights, Privileges and Duties
(FrOm the Wall Street Journal.)

If our Department of Justice were
what its name implies and not an
agency largely conducted on basis
OF sentimental mush and scared
politics. the Indictment and prose-
cutlon OF the leader OF the United
Mine WWorkers. as accessory, and
instigating in the artocious murders
at Herrin, ILL.,, would follow as a
matter of course. As might be ex-
pected in a newspaper which ap-
peals to people who cannot reason,
the Hearst American has an edi-
torial devoted to labor privileges" Z"
II one of those privileges is mur-
der, labor leaders will be deeply
gratified. Failing the support of law
and reason they need something OF
the kind to back their arguments.
If our freedom means anything at
all, 1t means that privilege is to us
a thing meaningless and superluous.
When a citizen has his rights guar
anteed to him under the law. he
needs no privilege, When a citizen
discharges the duties required of
him under the law he asks no priv
ilege. Indeed, Matthew Arnold
said:
The deeper 1 go in my own
consciousness, and the more
simply I abandon myself to II,
the more it seems to me that 1
have no rights at all, only
duties"
To the right thinking mind that
sums up the whole thing. 1t is meal
culably better than the sentimentalist

xvTIIMINGToNIANs await with interest the com
w petion Of the new marine terminal at the mouth
Of the Chrstiana river.
They want TO what extent It is appreciated by
the shipping interests what effect is to have upon
the commercial life and interests Of our city.
It is the opinion of the Board Of Harbor Commits
soners that terminal will be ready for use on Janu-
airy l, 1928.
As the wharves will be long enough to berth three
steamships of average size and the ter
ninal will have direct connection with the railroads.

Rule. An older writer, st. Augustine
said that obedience is better than
sacrifice. 1t is an incomparably
higher citizenship which discharges
the duties required of II before It
undertakes altruistic plans for the
uplift OF others. II It neglects those
duties, on the false conception that
some class should be conceded
privileges which can only be enjoyed
at the expense Of other classes all
its sacrifice goes for nothing, or
worse.
History will record what a chance
union labor had and how wickedly
1t threw it away. 1t is labor itself
which should have set the standard
for fine work, raising the quality of
its product with the increasing in
telligence of its members. Prae-
tically all the great Gothic cathe-
drals Of Europe were built within
about a century and a half-from
1900 to 1850. II architecture is poe
try in stone, that work of exquisite
symmetry and detail sings TO us as
the stars sang together when the
world was young. Every workman
was unioniZed. But the guilds of
that day could not unionize his soul
That belonged to his God, and his
work was the perfect prayer.
Is It possible that union workmen
can be as stupid as their leaders?
Every solitary one OF them is be-
by the horrible crime of
Southern Illinois. Can it be believed
that any appreciable number of
American workmen really desire
such privilege as that?

RELAND"s CIVIL WAR.
ON the New York Herald.

From the New York Herald.
There was no way OF avoiding the
civil war which has begun in earn
est in southern Ireland. The Free
State Government was patient with
the Republicans until patience not
only ceased to be a virtue but be-
came a positive danger to the exis-
tence of the new State. The irrecon-
cllables were truly beyond concilia-
tion. They chose no arbitrament but
that of the bullet. and at last they
are having their. choice.
The Collins-Grlfith group has had
a tough time of It. 1t had a hard
fight in London to get what It got
in the treaty. 1t had another hruls-
Ing contest in the Dali Eireann TO
secure Endorsement of the treaty.
Finally il went to the polls to battle
for public support and won il be-
yond the slightest question. Nothing
remained but the conversion of the
Republicans to national sanity. That
has proved to be an impossible task.
II was evident that Collins did
not wish to turn his guns on the
rebels until the last hope of winning
them over had failed He did not de-
sire to arouse sympathy for their
cause by making martyrs of them.
The rebel soldiers proceeded in their
warfare until it became apparent
that in the end one side or the other
would have to be beaten. Collins
could play the game of truce and
postponement with De Valera, but
there was no playing of any game
with O'ConnOr and his little army
except the game of war.
When a nation suddenly comes to
new freedom it IS hard for all to
realize it. This was a handicap to
and Collins and their lieu
tenants. They undoubtedly hoped to
