Sir Edward recalls that during the war Eamonn - De Valera as-; serted that a free Ireland, would be, the destruction- of the British sea power and that- Arthur Grif fith said the freedom of the seaJ would never be attainable while Ireland was in her present state because ' Ireland's Geographical and commercial position gave her the. key .to the Atlantic and Med-, iterranean trade. r Commenting on' Viscount Grey' statement 'that nobody wants to accept the home rule bill now before the house of com mons and that Irishmen will re-fus- to operate it, Sir Edward says It is quite true the TJlstennvm prefer their present position un der the imperial parliament. -Sir Edward contends; that TI ster lias sense enough to see that it is to her own interest to settle down and tackle the questions of education, labow health aRd re settlement which now !'are hlnd ared by the government at Dublin which is forever'being driven in to the. fatal policy of. trying to appease enemies by neglecting friends." . .... , , Salem Still Leads in i Total of Bank Deposits Thirty-five Oregon cities have bank deposits aggregating U 000,000 or more-, according to a statement issued yesterday by Will H, Bennett state superin tendent of banks. , . . : k ' After Portland Salem ' comes first with $8,959,060.08.
