THE
IRISH. HOME RULE
VITAL POLITICALLY
Unionist Newspapers Condemn
Prime Minister for Visit and
Speech in Dublin.
ULSTER TRIES TO DICTATE
Minority Presents Solid Front In
Protest Asrainst Measure Now
Up for Passage and Would
Rill It at Any Cost.
DCBL.IN". Aug. 1". (Special.) Pre
mier Asquith" s visit to 'Ireland has
stirred up a great deal of discussion.
It appears to be a fixed Idea with the
unionist newspapers of England that
a British Prime Minister cannot come
to Ireland to address an assembly of
Irishmen without doing; something
which is derogatory to his office or
without displaying himself "in chains"
to the leaders of the Irish party. "There
is," says the London Times, "all the
difference In the world between the
comparatively superficial divisions of
rarty In England and the profound
chasm that divides the two schools of
opinion in Ireland, and therefore. It la
improper for Jlr. Asquith to present
himself on the Dublin side of that gulf
or to address a sympathetic audience
In that city." .
But it is not improper for Bonar
Ut or any leader or the opposition to
present himself in Belfast and encour
age the I'lstermen to fight in the last
ditch. The Belfast demonstrations in
surli circumstances are impressive and
important, whereas the Dublin demon
stration is of no account. Mr. Asquith.
says the Times, must be aware that
"the two demonstrations have far dif
ferent values for the purpose of any
estimate of the real situation or the
elemental forces that have to be reck
oned with."
Y I on point la Strained.
It is clearly the honest opinion of the
writer quoted that the fart that the
great majority of the-Irish people want
home rule is of no account beside the
fac t that a small minority do not want
it. It Is his honest opinion that the
Prime Minister, who sides with the
majority, is guilty of a sort of treason
to the British cause. He cannot con
ceive of a British Prime Minister be
ing favorable to home rule as an Im
perial policy; he can only conceive of
him surrendering against his better
Judgment to tyrannical 'masters, who
"parade him as an ally and a hostage."
In his view the struggle of the minority
against home rule Is "elemental,"
whereas the long struggle of the ma
jority for home rule deserves neither
deference nor respect. As between the
two parties. It is the business of the
British Prime Minister to give his vote
unhesitatingly for the minority.
If anyone will think out this line of
reasoning and Its Implications, lie will
begin to understand what is meant by
the "ascendency" view of the Irish
question and the nature of the "chasm"
which is supposed to exist between par
ties in Ireland. Mr. Asquith, in the
course of his admirable speech, gave a
careful analysis of the views which had
been set before him by deputations
from Ulster, deputations which he
treated with the utmost respect. Ho
asked them whether they had any sug
gestions to make for the improvement
of the home rule bill or the strength
ening of the safeguards against the
evils which they feared. They had no
suggestion to make, and would have
nothing less than the total rejection of
the whole bill. Their attitude Is simply
that they will not have home rule on
any terms, though three-fourths or
four-fifths of their fellow-countrymen
are asking for It; and they speak as if
one-half the Province of Ulster had an
inalienable right to veto any scheme
for the government of Ireland, how
ever heavily indorsed by Irish or Brit
ish majorities, which does not carry
their approval.
lister In Opposition.
Now, this undoubtedly Is the theory
on which all British parties acted dur
ing the greater part of the last cen
tury, and on which the Unionist party
Js now acting. The Irish minority in
Ulster is. from their point of view, all
the Ireland that need be considered.
The imperial government and the Irish
administration at Dublin Castle have
reflected this opinion, with the result
that since the act of union the govern
ment of Ireland has been neither a pop
ular government nor an efficient bu
reaucracy. Its constitution prevented
its being popular, the claims of the
minority to control the machinery and
to fill the appointments prevented it
from being efficient. iAnd all steps to
Improve it. whether undertaken by the
Unionist party or the Liberal party,
have encountered the bitter hostility of
the leaders of the Ulster party, who
have seen in every attempt to popu
larize the administration or liberalize
the policy a threat to their own domi
nant position.
Naturally they resist home rule,
which aims a deadly blow at ascend
ency politics, but it must now be clear
to sensible people that the one chance
of arresting the decay of Ireland and
establishing Its government on a foot
ing which promises some measure of
prosperity and content lies In vetoing
their veto. Xo Liberal party worthy
of the name could shirk this task.
Mr. Asquith's claim that the third
home rule bill Is the best that has been
proposed to Parliament Is a good one,
and his prediction that it will become
law Is sure of fulfillment. When the
bill Is law the visits of English states
men to Dublin will be of everyday
occurrence, and their co-operation in
the common cause will be an estab
lished fact.
EMPEROR HELPS CUPID ON
Coin Supplied Aviator Who Is Too
Poor to Marry Sweetlieart.
VIENNA, Aug. 17. (Special.) The
Kmperor has accorded a special mark
of his favor to First Lieutenant
Ulaschke. who has made excellent rec
ords in aviation lately. The Emperor
received the officer In audience, in
quired Into his personal circumstances,
and heard he was engaged to be mar
ried. but could not marry, as the neces
pary "caution" money required from the
wife of every officer was not forthcom
ing. The Emperor thereupon presented
the pair with over JoOOO. the sum which
was wanting to complete me dower,
from his privy purse.
The fiancee of Lieutenant Blaschke,
Fraulein von Osakay. made several as
cents with him during the Vienna fly

"GOOD" BABIES WIN PRIZES
y Competition in London Baffles
Judges as None Cries.
LONDON. Aug. 17. (Special.) To
show that well-trained babies are gen
erally good babies, a novel competition
was held at the St. fancras scnooi xor
Mothers. Ampthlll square, the other
day, the results of which were so satis
factory that the Judge awarded every
entrant a prize.
Every since the school authorities In
vited the mothers to take part in the
good babies competition there has been
keen excitement In the district, excite
ment which reached a climax when
nine mothers arrived early In the
morning, each one fully convinced that
her offspring was about to establish a
record In good behavior.
A bath was the first item on the pro
gramme, through which rather trying
ordeal every baby emerged tearless and
triumphant, thereby adding to tne air
firulty of the Judge's task, who, sur
rounded by exemplary babies, was
obliged to award marks to the mothers
for method. Instead of to the Iniants
for conduct.
The most searching part of the test.
however, came after the Infants had
been dressed and fed. when they were
carried out Into the garden and de
posited in cots, where they were left
to prove their goodness by lying quiet
or going to sleep, for a full hour, dur
ing which time they were under the
observation of an official. Such a
thing as a comforter Is never seen
within the walls of the St. Pancras
School, and its use was strictly pro
hibited, while the fact that not one of
the babies lost marks on account it
whining or tears, speaks well for the
loyalty with which the mothers practice
the Instruction they receive.

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 18. An air of
uncertainty surrounds the disposition
of the second indictment against Clar-
after. a conference between Mr. Whit
man and Detective Burns.
It Is declared a Burns man paid a
prominent police ofriclal J1800 in all
for protection for his establishment.
The additional illuminating detail was
added that the demands of the police
having become so Insistent, and their
percentage so great the "plant" man
ager complained that all of his profits
were go'ing out in protection money.
Police Order "Crooked Wheel."
"No wonder," he was informed.
"Tou are running a straight wheel."
He insisted he wanted to play on the
square, but again he was told there
would be more for both himself and
the police if he should put In a
"crooked" wheel. Relenting, there
upon, the detective asked where he
was to get one.
"I'll send yon one," said his pro
tector, and in due time there arrived
a wheel which was operated against
the player by an electric button placed
under a rug.
It required only a short investiga
tion as to the source of this wheel,
according to the story, to demonstrate
that it was one that had been con
fiscated by the police In a raid on an
other institution a short. time before.
Burns is said to have seen the former
owner of the wheel and got his identi
fication of It.

WIFE SAYS HOUSE IS UNFIT
Coos Bay Man Contests Divorce Suit;
.Watching of Food Annoys.
LOS ANGELES. Aug. 18. (Special.)
"It humiliated me to eat grub at a
house where every mouthful was
watched and where I could see I was
not wanted," Oscar A. Thacker told
Judge Monroe yesterday.
He was contesting his wife's suit for
divorce and alleged that although she
induced him to leave Oregon, where he
was employed In a logging camp on
Coos Bay, and come to Los Angeles,
she now refuses to live with him In
the house he has rented.
Mrs. Thacker asserts the house is
not fit to live in. With the view of
determining the question for himself
Judge Monroe went to the house today.
He said It looked like an effort to get
rid of Thacker, as he had been arrested
for failure to provide. Thacker has
been occupying the house alone for 19
months, waiting for his famtiy to Join
him. Judge Monroe will announce his
ruling tomorrow.
Candidate's Wife Poes Xot Indorse
Smoking of Cigarettes by Wom

of Child-Training.
Confusion caused by the similarity of
the names of Mrs. Woodrow Wilson,
wife of the .Democratic candidate for
President, and Mrs. Wilson Woodrow,
writer ot magazine stories and author
of "The New Missloner" and "The Sil
ver Butterfly," has been caused to
the embarrassment of both women,
who are prominent claimants of public
attention.
Mrs. Woodrow Wilson has recently
had occasion to deny with indignation
an article in a Columbus, Ohio, news-
.. BvihtitiTicr r Vi or views indors
ing the smoking of cigarettes by wo
men, inis is a practice m wmw o.w
does not believe at all and her flat de
nial resulted in the discovery that it
was Mrs. Wilson Woodrow who really
held that opinion.
Mrs. Woodrow said, however, when
the denial of Mrs. Wilson was printed,
that the mistake had not always been
made on that side.
"The same Ohio town," she said, "per
petrated a mistake on me that I feel
as keenly as Mrs. Wilson feels about
smoking. A year ago an article came
out in Columbus with the title 'Mrs.
Wilson's Views on the Training of
Children.' And above it all was my
Dicture with Mrs. Wilsons name un
derneath. Naturally, I wasn't any too
pleased with the combination, for I
have never naa any cnnaren ami fra
ably wouldn't know how to give a
baby its bottle."
Mm. Wilson Woodrow denied that
she was a suffragette in the broad
sense, sne saw, nowever, ui smo Ho
llered in equal rights and that if men
had the right to smoke women had,
too.
