THE ELECTION
 OVER IN IRELAND
Republican Party Making Effort to Pave Way to
 Independence
BY USE OF BALLOT

Much interest Is centered in the outcome of the general election in the Irish Free State. According to press dispatches, nobody knows at this time which side will come out ahead. This sounds encouraging for those who favor the republican party, but after all it is hard to see how DeValcra and his asso- clates can battle successfully with ihcir opponents. The election was called by order of King George. which Is q sufficient guarantee that all loyallsts will stand together. These with the party in power In the Free State make up formid- able combination.
 The republicans take.the ground thnt Ireland should be an inde- pendent state. the same position occupied by the Colonists in this country. while the other side Is content with Dominion status and tho offices.
 During the World War Presi- dent Wilson said that every nation, largo and small. should enjoy the right to choose it's own sovereignty, but things did not turn out that way after 1t was over.
