Saturdays Action
(Continusd from PAGE One)

Irish people in regular manner dis
established the republic, it constitu-
tionally went on.
This would be a sovereign body In
the nation, to which the nation look
ed fo- supreme government. 1t was
the executive until the people dis
established it.
Must Keep Up Dali
Nobody was disposed to challenge
this proposition, fore the general
opinion all along had been that dur
ing the transition period Ireland must
keep her representative assembly un-
til the treaty was converted into an
act of Parliament and the Irish
would have an opportunity to erect q
legislature of the free state to replace
the Dali.
Michael Collins in quiet tones fol-
lowed De Valera. He said he did not
regard the result in any spirit of tri-
umph. The men representing the Dali
who would be responsible for taking
over from the British government
control of the Irish administration
should get a fair chance. IN every
country what mattcred most was
public order, and he appealed to the
other side to appoint joint commit
tee of both sides to carry on the gov.
eminent. (This was greeted witt
cheers). President DE Valera held
the same place in his heart as ever.
Then followed violent speech by
Mary MacSwiney, denouncing the re.
suit as worse than the btrayal of Ire.
land in the days of Castlereagh Nis.
count Castlereagh, who was chief sec.
rotary for Ireland in 1898. was instru'
mental in carrying the Union il
1900
Mr.. De Valera rose again, suppos.
edly to reply to Mr.. C0lins's overture
However. he took no notice of it ant
merely appealed to all his own sup
peters in the Dali to meet him at The
Mansion House tomorrow afternoon
at o'clock. This evidently hurt Mr.
Collins very much. but he Quietl,
said: IF the visible presence of my.
self and colleagues is so diStasteful
there might at any rate be some ac-
commodation between the parties fol
the purpose of public order"
Minister Burgess Immediately re.
torted: II will take care that the dis.
cipline Of the army is preserved"
The assembly then separated. e
meet at II o'clock Monday morning
No program for that session is indi-
Gated, and the only notice of n mo-
ton is one by the speaker. Prof Mac
Neill, affirming in general terms Ire.
lands independence and sovereign
status, for which i'll sections of the
Dali Iieht unanimously vote.
The country is completely bewilder-
cd regarding Dc Nalera's intentions.

Harness Meeting
at Cleveland
for Coming Season

Cleveland. o.. Jan. THE harness
horse racing season for 1922 will be
laid here next Monday, Tuesday and
wednesday. when stewards and rep
resentatives of the Grand ami Lake
Eric circuits hold their annual meet
ings and assign dates, upon which
other harness racing dates through
out the country are based.
The Grand Circuit meeting will
open Monday and continue Tuesday.

Will meet Monday afternoon with the
annual DINNER TO be held in the eve
ming. Tuesdays program as mapped
out by Secretary Win II. kinnan. calls
for an open meeting in the morning,
TO which all horscmcn are invited and
an executive meeting of the stewards
in the afternoon at which action will
he taken on rules and schedules
The Lake Erie officials. controlling
the halfmile tracks. will meet on
Wednesday.
one of tho principal questions facing
the Grand Circuit stewards is whether
dates will be assigned to the Kenil-
worth track at Windsor, Ont. across
the river from Detroit. President
Samuel Mcbride of that track. has
significd his intention of applying for
membership with a view to holding a
meeting during the two weeks prcced-
Ing tho North Randall meeting.
Under the Canadian law it is pos
sible only to race three days a week
and in order for a six-day meet to &c
held at the knnilworth track it is noe
ossary 10 rncc in two different weeks.
However tho management of the
North Randall track here is rctic.nt
about rclnquishing the opening of the
Grand Circuit They point to the fact
that they took the opening dates sew
cral years ago when no other track
wanted them and since then has built
up it's open meeting second to none in
tho circuit.
If Lexington dccidcssto substitute a
six day meeting for the two-weeks
gathering it has held for many years,
rs has been reported. this must also
come before tho stewards. Such ac-
ton by Lexington would leave a week
open between the Lexington and At
lanta meetings.
The addition of Kenlworth would
give the Grand Circuit . tracks. Pres
ent members are North Randall, Tole-
do Columbus. Kalamazoo. Lexington,
