Their sole purpose Is to serve Ireland, to win for It very advantage they can, and frequently they accompltoh their ends by hampering and obstructing the business of the empire. They will con tinue to do this as long as they are there to represent Ireland's protest. Gladstone's home rule bills of 1W0 and 1W3 were de feated because they aroused the fears of English Imperialists for the unity and security of the empire. Statesmen of today .re realising that continuance of the sys tem which breeds Irlnh hostility must be a far greater Derll than the granting of autonomy would be. It Is difficult to understsnd the theory that governing a people against their will makes them a source of strength, while giving them the form of government they desire would arouse enmity. Self-Government and Loyalty. Surely this is a strange attitude when the history of the British empire shows, as might be expected, that loyalty Is the re sult, and not the forerunner of, self-government. Australia, Houth Africa, Canada all went through the tame experience as Ireland, except that, being farther from the seat of the Imperial government, they were able to enforce their demands more rapidly. They had their "treasons," plots and re bellions; they suffered coercion, imprison ments, executions. They had. too, their local "ulsters," groups of ultra-loyalists, who called heaven to witness that they alone represented public opinion, and bit terly opposed concessions to the majority on the groundi that such a course meant disintegration of the empire. Yet In each case autonomy was granted, and with what result? That rebellion and opposition died down.

Liike every other American correspon dent who has gone to Ireland to investi gate conditions there, Mr. Sunderland condemns English 'rule In Ireland as op pressive, unwieldy, excessively costly, and wholly out of sympathy with the people. Two extracts . from the book epitomises the author's conclusions. He says: - T)y every test that can be applied the present system of governing Ireland is a failure.

Let those who condemn Ireland for de manding home rule while opposing Imper ial policies consider the case of Canada, as remarkable a parallel as may be found In history. There, as In Ireland, were two races and two religions, and they were separated by animosities far more bitter than today separate nationalists and union Ists. England conferred upon the country, In response to agltitlon, a half-way com promise constitution. Upper Canada (now Ontario) and lower Canada .(now Quebec) had each an elected house ot assembly and a nominated "senate." All executive power, however, remained with' the appointed gov ernor and his council, who were responsible to London and In no degree whatsoever to the people of Canada. Against this sys tem there arose a fierce agitation, which j for years kept the country In turmoil. Mon ster meetings were held when nationalist banners were flaunted and nationalist senti ments flung in the face of the government Coercion Just aa savage as in Ireland was applied. Meetings were proscrltcd, speak ers arrested and imprisoned, newspapers suppressed. A Saecemfnl Revolt. During all this time the Canadian "ulster'" was, of course, active, loudly proclaiming Its loyalty to England, not to Canada and (ailing upon the government to exterminate this propaganda of the majority and restore the rule of the minority. The whole trouble they said and how familiar It sounds was due to the fulmlnatlons of Irresponsible agitators and the efforts of "a majority in numbers only" to dominate the '"wealth, education and enterprise" of the country. In a final effort to quell the agitation, England suspended the Canadian govern mental system altogether. The effect was to consolidate, the opposition and fan the embers of rebellion. In 1837 when the British empire was rejoicing over the as cent of Queen Victoria to the throne, Can. ada was in arms. The revolt was short' lived, but it was successful. England hastened to grant home rule, and for sev enty years Canada, peaceful, loyal and prosperous, has been marching forward In the ranks of the free nations of the world. Two Copious Plctares. As I close these letters two curious pto turee come to me. On a bright June day In 1900 I stood on the railroad platform at Pretoria, chatting with a stout, bearded man who leaned over the rear platform of a train. He .was in military uniform, and the train was loaded with armed troops, which he commanded, infantry and artil lery. Over the stony hills to the south ward came the Irregular thud of field guns for the attacking army was closing In on the Boer capital. Presently the train pulled out, the man on the rear platform waving courteous good-bye. It was General Louis Botha, commander of the Boer troops fichtlna- the British forces, on his way to the front, to main' tain for two years an unequal struggle against the Imperial armies. The other picture was seven, years later- May, 1907. Outside the Guild hall in Lon non, the streets are packed with dense crowds, the buildings gay with many flags. impugn uis mnes or people roils a car riage, preceded by a clattering squadron of mounted guards and followed by a mighty wave of cheers. From the carriage steps a stoutly built man In frock suit and utile hat Bowing gravely to the plaudits of the crowd, he passes Into the Guildhall, to be honored by the greatest men of England and her colonies. It is the Right Honorable General Loul noma, prime minister of the Transvaal, political ruler of a self-governing unit of me empire.

Does Ireland aeserve less Will the Interests of the em pue be conserved with lessT EERL.IN, Feb. 6. The kaiser's voice was originally strong by nature, and It remains so to this day. It never seems tired even when, as he often does, he reads aloud for the pleasure and benefit of himself and a party of friends. It often occurs that he will pick up one of his ancient favorites, Horace or Homers or a modern publication and read aloud from It for an hour or an hour and a half at a time. Frequently the publication chosen is a periodical or a newspaper. Nor la his reading aloud confined to classical or German books. He la equally given to choosing works in English or Fiench. When he reads these he Is fond o doing so with a particularly clear and distinct enunciation, partly as practice for himself and partly that Ills hearers may understand him with certainty. There in variably follows a discussion upon what has been read, and in it the kaiser takes a constant and often emphatic part. It has been remarked that at the close of the longest sitting of this character his voice Is as strong and sonorous an It was at the beginning. The human voice is usually a good index to the state of a person's general health. This Is true of the kaiser. Born with an exceptionally sound constitution, he has not failed to develop and strengthen It by careful treatment. He Is a friend of cold water, a partiality which may have been fostered by the training of his EngllHh mother. He has the English belief in the virtues of a dally tub. The bath invariably ends even on the frostiest of mornings in a cold douche. At sea he has a liking for sea water and regularly bathes in it.

The man who wants a piece of land can ill afford to delay, as land is rising so rapidly in value. How about that land you were once going to buy in Nebraska or Iowa, but waited and didn't, and now you want to but can't? Delay and postponement are the destroyers of opportunity.

When you want what you want when you want it, say so through The lie Want A 1 Notwithstanding the dlfflcultfes created by the partial uselessncss of one arm, the kaiser is a great lover of lawn tennis. Golfers would probably explain this by saying that he has never learned to play golf. He has been fond of the game since his school days at Cassel and still con tinues to play It, notably at Kiel, where his brother, Prtnco Henry, has a fine tennis court, and at his castles in Berlin and at Potsdam. He takes it seriously, as he does all things, and It is seldom that he ceases play before ho has had two hours exercise at He Is a fair player and wisely chooses partners and opponents of greater skill than himself bo that he must put forth all his powers to keep level with them. Riding and hunting, however, are his pot sports and ho has said that he Is never bo happy as when on horseback. His ordi nary rides usually last for an hour or more and he gallops many a mile. His suite are supposed to keep up with him, though at some little distance to the rear, but It often happens that he leaves them far behind. The same impetuousness - of tempera ment causes him when walking to fall into longer and faster stride than that ot most men, talking often uninterruptedly and fast to those who may accompany him. It is the same when he is mountain eering; his companions have difficulty in keeping pace with him. His climbing is mostly done in Norway, where at least one peak he has ascended bears his name. Tlreleaa Also at Work. Next to riding, particularly at the head of his cavalry in manoeuvres, he takes de light - in hunting. A tireless stalker and excellent shot, he will follow the quarry at his hunting place at Rominten for long hours at a time, bringing down liLa deer on occasion from a distance of 300 or 400 paces. It Is no uncommon thing for him when at Rominten to be afoot at 4 in the morning, return at 10 in the forenoon and renew the chase in the afternoon. The many fatiguing duties of bis station he bears likewise without traces of weari ness. At manoeuvres he has been known to spend the night until 2 in the morning with his gonerals consulting on plans for the next day's work, and yet at t o'clock after a two hour rest, to be up and In the saddle ready for the field day before him. One of the most tiring duties of a mon arch is holding "cercle." as court recen. tlons are called. The task sometimes takes hoursand loud and frequent are the cont plaints or the diplomatists and ' other officials who have to take part in it. The kaiser, who has to bear the chief burden of the reception, -never shows a sign of weariness mentally or physically. The energy of the kaiser is displayed at work, as well as at play, and of all of hi! minlsers none is so industrious as he. And he makes it a point to finish all the many matters that demand his attention during the day, so he insists that his ministers and their subordinates shall do likewise. He works almost as hard when travelling as -when seated Jn his own study in .Berlin or Potsdam castle. Even when traveling he keeps In touch with every Important transaction awaiting settlement In his em pire. He does this by means of well planned arrangements by which the ministers or lesser officials concerned appear by com mand at. designated points on the im perial route, their hands i grasping the portfolio with the necessary documents and their heads full of the details the kaiser may desire to know. The latjor goes on from day to day throughout the week. Rest on Sunday. On Sunday there is a complete rest, for If the kaiser is uncoventlonal in many things, in polotics and art for instance, he is entirely conventional in the observance of the teachings of religion, and among them those regarding the keeping of the Sabbath. It may here be noted that It is strange that against a man who all through his reign has constantly insisted by word and deed on the every tenet of the highest spirit of Christianity the accusation of bad faith, particularly with regard to war and peace, should so often be brought. The accusation indeed Is not made against him In his own country or by his own people; in Germany the notion that the kaiser is planning war; Immediately or In the future. la scouted aa obviously absurb. War may come; some incautious word of his may possibly hasten in some small degree Its coming; but that the maintenance of peace la the basis of all the kaiser's actions and Yet the emperor Is no puritan, save In morals. His Idea of the way to spend the Sabbath is no narrow one. He takes, naturally perhaps, what may be termed the continental view or It, a day to be devoted to Qod Indeed, but not so as to exclude the recreation, even amusement. which Is to prepare the body for the work of the week to come. Tho kaiser eats a substantial breakfast and midday meal, but carefully avoids or has no appetite for a heavy dinner. The breakfast Is after the English fashion, in cluding tea and fish or flesh, the former being more favored than the latter. Lunch at 1 'o'clock Is the next meal, and at It the kaiser usually partakes heartily. When at sea be always calls for fish of some sort and all the better if it baa been freshly Fort George is on the line of the Grand Trunk Pacific, half-way between Edmonton and Prince Rupert. The situation of Fort George is such that it will be the largest city on the Grand Trunk Pacific between Edmonton and Prince Rupert. Fort George is the center and distributing point for Central British Columbia today; and its central geographical location and strategic situation is such that it will continue to be the chief commercial place of Central British Columbia for all time. Central British Columbia is sufficiently rich in natural resources to support a population of millions. That population is already beginning to sweep into this new and Last West, and before half the destined population of British Columbia is attained, Fort George will be one of the larger cities of Canada. And because this new West is the last vast and rich unde veloped section on the continent, its growth will be faster than that of any similar section in the past.

It is, therefore, part of the duty of the crew to fish, and when a capture is made the catch must toe brought to the kaiser for Inspection not only that he may see If it promises good eating, but also as a test for his acquaintance with the in habitants of the sea.

Moderate In Smoking and Drinking-. The kaiser is that rare thing, a moder ate smoker. As a young man he smoked more than now, but he found that it in terfered, with work particularly when writ ing, and doubtless also with some remem brance of the throat affection of 1903, he now keeps himself within moderate limits. When traveling, three or four light cigars dally and six or eight cigarettes are his allowance. When at home half a dozen cigarettes of light Turkish tobacco satisfy him. " As with his eating so with his drinking. Moderation is his rule and habit a glass or .two of Mosel wlno or champagne (French or German), and this Invariably mixed with mineral water. His passage at arms with Bismarck about the: question of drinking German champagne may be repeated. Just before his retirement Bismarck was a guest at the royal castle. German cham pagne was served and the kaiser with his observant eyes noticed that the chancellor refrained from it. The kaiser aaked tho reason, whereupon Bismarck replied that he could not stand it, he could only drink French champagne. "Well," remarked the kaiser, "I drink German champagne for two reasons: In tho first place, it is Inexpensive and I wish to set an example of economy, and in the second plaoe, I consider it a pa triotic duty to encourage a home product." I quite appreciate your majesty's mo tives," replltd the blunt old chancellor. "but for my part, I have no patriotism where my stomach Is concerned." The answer did not seem to please the kaiser, and it has often been said' that the incident helped to hasten the aged states man's downfall. Of course the idea is groundless, and It was a different set of considerations altogether that led to the close of the chancellor's political career. As to other beverages, for the last ten years the kaWr has drunk no beer and he has as carefully abstained from every form of alcohol or liqueurs. It is well that the fact should be known, for in England it Is often supposed that he has given utterance to some of his most war like utterances when under the influence of an extra glass. Praakaesa of the Kaiser. About one tiring all those who have been brought into contact with him are agreed, the charm namely of ' his personal inter course and conversation. The first feeling, it Is said, the stranger has who meets the imperor for the first time is his unaffect edness, the next surprise amounting almost to embarrassment at the frankness of the way in which he expresses his opinions on subjects of the highest importance. Two or three instances of the latter qual ity have by being repeated led to great and angry discussion. The interview with the American who repeated his comments on the necessity of Europe uniting in face of the yellow peril is not yet forgotten. In deed the besetting sin of frankjiess on the kaiser's part on a great number of oc- ce tions became obvious on the publication of the celebrated Daily Telegraph inter view and of the so-called Tweedmouth let ter. But whatever be the subject of tha kaiser's conversation he is by etiquette al ways supposed to suggest the topicthe charm of his frankness remains, and this with an entire absence of pomp, immedi ately puts the stranger at his ease. The day and hour for an audience hav ing been fixed by the kaiser, a note an nouncing the fact reaches the visitor from the court marshal's office. On the day appointed, say at noon, the visitor dresses in evening ctSlhes unless he happens to be in military or other official employment, which requires that he should wear uni form. If the visitor is an ambassador present ing his letters of credence a court car riage drives up to his hotel or residence shortly before the appointed hour and takes him to the palace if the audience is to be held In Berlin. If it Is to be held at Potsdam the ambassador goes by train on his own account to Potsdam and is met at the station there by a royal car riage or motor car to carry him the two or three miles to the new palace. Ceremony In Berlin, Assuming the audience to be in Berlin, the ambassador Is driven into the palace courtyard and the carriage draws up at a side entrance leading to the royal apart ments on the first floor.' There are a couple of servants In livery at the entrance to show the visitor up the flight of stairs at the top of which Is standing a chamber lain, possibly rhe court marshal himself or a vice-master of ceremonies. A dozen lackeys with powdered heads and A nrple liveries and pink silk stockings are 3k. ing In the offing. The court marshal, after bowing to tiie visitor, precedes him to the antechamber of the reception chamber if the audience Is Indoors, or if the audience is outdoors, as fn fluently happens when the weather is fine, and particularly, of course. In summer, to the garden of the palace bordering on the Spree, of If at Potsdam to the small pavilion In a garden of the new palace, outside ef which the kaiser will probably be found. If the visitor is shown to the ante-chamber of the Berlin palace he waits there. Suddenly the wide doors at one side of the chamber are thrown open and the kaUer Is disclosed. He stands almost invariably at audiences of an official character, but often invites private persons to sit beside him on a broad and comparatively small sofa. The viator on seeing the kaiser makes a bow and advances toward his host who probably comes a step or two forward. Arrived close up, the visitor bows again, and as he raises himself finds the kaiser's hand outstretched to greet htm. It la a full and warm grasp, far different from the cold and perfunctory shake of ordin ary Germans. From this moment the sense of em barrassment drops away from the visitor. PETTY BROS.

MO. for the kalsera eyes if keen are kindly, and unless the visitor is an ambassador, who usually speaks first, the kaiser at once opens the conversation. It has been said that the kaiser has a habit of monop olizing the conversation and is impatient of contradiction. The majority of those who have met him and Bpoken afterward on the subject declare that this istnot the case. It is universally admitted that when talking to the kaiser all sense ot embarr assment is soon lost, for he makes one talk however Inclined one might naturally be only or chiefly to listen courteously and TfULoaiiUiiUv. It Is etiquette, naturally so. for the visitors to allow the kaiser to lead the conversation. At the close of the audience there is as little formality as at the beginning. The kaiser, still talking, puts out his hand, ac companies his visitor a little way toward the door, then turns back to his big work table.
