area Of six counties.
To the Irish people, this arrange

forward TO the day when, with full
and cordial agreement, Ireland will
have political unity answering to
her geographic economic unity.
standing the febrile cf-
fects OF the two fanaticisms, The
Irish revolution is an accomplished
fact. The new const. tuition is opera
tive and the changes that follow
irom it are being steadily and per-
manently effected.
A new electoral law, in accordance
with the constitution, will secure
that future elections will be held
under the conjoint principles Of
universal adult suffrage and the pro-
polt.onal representation Of minor
ties.
The judicial system is undergo.

it TO the requirements of the Irish
people.
A new and purely civil police or
eanization has replaced the Royal
Irish Constabulary.
A new revenue department will
collect the taxes OF the Free State.
A new army organization will be
the instrument of the national will
expressed through the elected rep
resentatives of the nation, for the
defense of the nation and its instit-
utions.
The far-reaching power Of educa-
tiOn, the molding of the national
mind, is now completely in the peo-
pies hands.
In Great Britain there still re-
mains an element, difficult to meas
ure, finding voice in certain sections
of the press, hostile to the freedom
which Ireland won, and eager to un-
do it.
But the main fact of the situation
is that the elected representatives
of the nation in both houses of the
Oireachtas, the Irish parliamen mt, are
pIdCllCaIIv rs one IN tnelr 0etef-

and develop it for every advantage

Statement to Washington
PRESENTED IN COURT
Jurors Ask RetractiOn Based
on Interview Regarding
Jurors and OathS

! Twenty-seven jurors in federal
court here, after protcstin" in
oDen court against remarks of
| United States District Attorney
M. A. Hildreth alleged to be de-
rogatory to the jurors, were de-
batting today whether or not they
! would forward formal protest
to the Department cf Justice at
Washington, d. C
The Jurors presented before
Judge Miller a demand that the
district attorney either retract
the statements made by him or
furnish proof of the allegation.
Nc action was taken in the court.
The action of the jurors was i'm
PEELED from an interview publish
ed in the Bismarck Tribune in
which District Attorney Hildreth
was quoted as stating that "per-
jury is the most prevalent crime
in the United States today" and
that there is general disrespect
of the oath among jurors as well
as witnesses and that "the truth
Of the matter is that jurors as
well as witnesses will go on the
stand and disregard their oath"
The District Attorney also was
quoted as saying that perjury
cases would constitute an impor-
tant part of the next grand jury's
investigation.
The protest of the jurors, who
believe the remarks derogatory to
them because in the two criminal
cases tried in the federal court,
verdicts Of acquittal were render
ed. In two other cases verdict
of acquittal was directed while the
cases were before ahe juries.
Resolution Read
d. E. Shipley of Dickinson read
the resolution of the jurors, which
incorporated the article referred
to, before Judge Miller.
Assistant District Attorney s.
L. Nuchols objected to the portion
which asked that the resolution be
made a part of the court records.
District Attorney Hildreth was
present in court and said nothing.
Judge Miller received the resol-
ution, discussed the matter. stated
that he did not believe the District
Attorney intended to cast reflcc-
ton upon the jurors at this term
Of court, said with respect to the
two cases in which the jurors re-
turned verdicts of acquittal he be-
lieved the juries found correctly
and said the jurors had given good
service in the court.
The resolution, which travelled
from Mr.. Shipley to the clerk and
to the judge returned by the same
route, and the court ordered bust
ness to proceed.
After quoting the article the
resolution said:
From the reading of the ar
ticle, it appears to the jurors that
this is a reflection on the honesty |.
and integrity Of the members. 1t
is hard for the jurors to take two
or three weeks of their time from
their business; they are, however, |
concious of their duty as jurors; !
they have been trying to be faith

be achieved without heavy cost.
Among all the wrongs and evils
inflicted on Ireland by Dublin Castle,
not the least was this, that the peo-

resistance and neglation became
their chief political tradition.
Then came the great war, with
its disturbing effects on the public
mind throughout the world. Close
upon its traces came the final and
terribly intense stages of the Irish
revolutio onary struggle, which be-

BY w. T. COsgrave
President Of the Irish Free State
To the Editor of The Bismarck Tri-
bune:
Ireland has come through revo-
luton. For some centuries this
country was ruled from Dublin Cas-
tie. Even the independence claimed
for "Gratan's Parliament" ll7So-
lsOD was illusory
Probably no country in the world
ever made in such brief space SO
much material progress as ireland
made during t.,e few years Of legis-
lative freeuom. But The control of
executive, judiciary, and military
power renamed all the time VITA
Dublin Castle, and Dublin Castle did
not await but contrived the oppOr-
tunity to destroy Ireland's legisla-
tive freedom an. concomltAnt pros
perity.
From the time when the discovery
of America gave Ireland place a.
cardinal Importance in the midst O.!
tne world until about year ago,
Ireland was dom mated by Dublin
Castle, ana this domination develop
ed in time to such degree that,
in the words Of recent English
chief secretary, the whole people of

Dublin Castle was an unOrganiZed
bureaucracy, responsible only to the
absentee British government, con-
temptuous of the Irish people and
their representat.v YES, over whom it
appointed its own judges and mag
istrates, its own taXgatherels and
police, its own secret service agents.
1t was supported by the British
army and navy and had It's own arm
of power and intelligence, the Royal
Irish Constabulary, organized on a
military footing and equipped with
military arms, the most centralized
and efficient police that the world
las known. It's power can compare
with that Of any despotism in his
tory.

The Irish revolution, led by Ar
thur Griffith and Michael Collins,
has ended that. Dublin Castle is no
more. Its entire organization has
disappeared. The survivors of it's
great police organization are retired

The air people are sometimes un-
