LOJTDON, Aug. 7. An offer to ar
range, a meeting between the Sinn
Fein and Premier Lloyd George waa
made to the premier within the last
'week, the Associated Press learned
Today . from Alexander M. Carlisle,
Director of the National bank of
tLondon and a prominent former Bel
fast Irishman.
"" He -declared that after a visit to
ills office late in July of a representa
tive of the Sinn Fein, he (Mr. Carlisle)
communicated with the premier, in
forming him of the Binn Fein's will
ingness to confer with the govern
ment to effect an Immediate settle
ment of the Irish question.
The premier, he said, through an
aesistant, replied that until the Invi
tation came direct from the Sinn
Kein and details were made clearer
there could be no meeting,
r,i Mr.' Carlisle is not a Sinn Feiner,
'Iut for many years has been active
"In trying to effect a compromise be
tween radical Irishmen and the gov
ernment,
. premier Declared Evasive.
Following the receipt of a reply,
Mr. Carlisle said he attended, in the
west end of London, last Sunday, a
meeting of Orangemen, southern con
eervatives, Sinn Feinera" and several
Kngltshmen, who again charged him
with the task of attempting to bring
the.:Sinn Feiners and the government
together.
Another letter addressed to : the
premier this week again brought
what 'Mr. Carlisle described as- an
evasive reply, whereupon Mc Carlisle
today 'wrote a letter to Mr. Lloyd
George, In which he charges the. gov
ernment with being indirectly respon
sible for conditions in Ireland.
py 'refusing to meet leaders of the
Sinn Fein, the government assumes
full responsibility for the chaos In
Ireland and through the coercion bill
wilV" only further arouse Irishmen,"
tali- 41r. Carlisle to the Associated
I rers. "A week ago when I made an
offer to arrange a meeting I firmly
believed a settlement could have been
effected getween the Sinn Fein and
the "government. Today I regret to
any. that such a settlement could not
be arranged chiefly beause the gov
ernment has seen fit to reply to the
offer by presenting the coercion bill."
" tioveramfnt Xa Aecuned.
Itr bis latest letter. Mr.. Carlisle
said':
"It have definitely accused the gov
ernment of being indirectly responsi
ble for the murder of my co-director,
Mr. Brooke, through its dilatoriness
in effecting a settlement in Ireland.
1 re-itarate that accusation. -
"The situation goes from bad to
worse;
"All" these avenues of settlement
ere-being treated in open contempt.
The-able reply of his majesty's gov
ernment is the new coercion bill. The
situation canot be cured by coer
cion acts. Laws will only be en
forced when , . , Ireland possesses
. government ; with the consent
of the, governed."

est shows is promised by officials of
the Rose City speedway who are stag

ng popularly called, are practically

mon with a three-ring circus, due to
the fact that something will be con
tinually going on. While the horse
nd motorcycle races are being run
off on the big track, wild west stunts
will be pulled off on the smaller In
side track and in the arena.
About 100 thoroughbred and stand
ard-bred horses have been listed to

VANCOUVER, VJash, Aug. 7.
(Special.) The labor group here has
decided to put a third ticket in the
field Instead of indorsing certain can
didates in the republican primaries,
as had been planned.
A meeting was held here last night,
the workers' nonpartisan league, the
farmers' nonpartisan league, the
central labor council, railroad broth
erhoods. 48ers and others. In the
Labor temple.
Aa a result of this decision. It will
mean that those interested will, on
primary day, hold a county conven
tion In this city, nominate a full
ticket and place It in the field, as is
allowed by law.
c t. Moran of the nonpartisan
league said today that they have now
come out into the open and will wage
the fight to a successful finish, and
Is of the opinion that the move to get
out of the republican primaries is for
the best interests of the unionists.
It had been the plan of this group
to wait until after all candidates had
filed and then hold a me sting and
select certain candidatea on the re
publican ticket and Indorse them, se
lecting the ones they thought would
serve their interest best. .
However, it has been found that a
candidate on the republican ticket
would be compelled to subscribe to
the principles laid down at the re
publican convention.
If the allied group supported a republican-it
would place them in the
light of indorsing the republican
platform, and there Is some differ
ence between that and the one they
prefer, so it was deemed best to put
a third party ticket in the field.
Politics Undergoes Change.
KALAMA, Wash., Aug. 7. A decided I
change has taken place in this county
in regard to political matters with I
the announcement that the candidates I
for county offices named by the triple I

file as farmer-labor candidates, be
nominated as such and make a fight
at the general election. The repub
licans have more than one aspirant I
for several of the county offices, sol
the primary election will not lack In
terest. The democrats, so far, have I
no candidatea The non-partisans re
ceived word from state leaders to file 1
as farmer-labor candidates, and were I
informed that the party would put a
full ticket in the field.

It is intensely interesting to observe the
close similarity in the performance of
Dort cars in every section of the country.
-
There is a very striking and significant
sameness to all reports that come to
ns from owners.
Such a situation is possible only when
the cars themselves are designed and
built with unvarying adherence to set
and certain manufacturing practices.
It can be regarded as undeniable evi
dence of the thorough care and exact
skill which surrounds every process in
the production of a Dort.
And it assures every Dort owner
equally excellent and thrifty perform
ance, apart from the slight differences
that must be credited to the care the
car receives or the conditions under
which it operates. .
