L lie most outstanding feature
of the Irish uprising is the utter
hopelessness of it. Almost be
fore the sound of the first shots
had died away these members of
Irish race who had the moral and
physical courage to rise in an ef
fort ot throw on the century old
yoke of bondage, find themselves
hedge about wth the staring
muzzles of machine guns while
troop on troop of trained fighting
. men are hurrying to the task of
strangling whatever chance of
success might yet remain. And
in the background looms the gal
lows and an ignoble death for
every mother’s son of them on
**«■ .... , a . ■ . „ a 4
whom the charge of high treason
can be fixed.
It is a sorry answer to the heart
cry of a nation for the God given
right to liberty.
And, to add to the pathos of it,
is the certainty that henceforth
the wrongs of Ireland will be
double hard to right for England
will not forget that Ireland struck
at the most critical time in .her
national career, nl an hour when
the hand of an implacable foe fvaa
grasping at her throat and the
v ery existence of the nation filing
lrembling in the balance
Regardless of the fact that the
Irish patriots arose only to claim
their ancient heritage of freedom
when the moment seemed most
propitous for success, in the eyes
of Englishmen their actioM will
savor of nothing honorable, will
present no aspect of justice or
right.
To them it will be an act of
deepest treachery, a blow in the
dark, that can be neither forgiven
nor forgotten.
With the hanging of her pa
i: int sons Erin’s punishment will
but commence for. should Eng
land survives the bloody strife in
which she is now engaged, the
i bains of British bondage will be
drawn still tighter to the end
that Ireland shall no longer have
an opportunity to rise for free
dom.
The whole effort has been
nothing less than a glaring blun
der for which not even the justice
of Erin’s cause can win complete
forgiveness. \\ hoever planned
the sorry project has clearly been
guilty of a woeful lack of fore
sight for there is no possible
chance for the unorganized, un
trained and unequipped sons of
Ireland, however brave they fight,
to prevail against the militant
England of today.
It is true that England is in
extremities and that she is being
driven to the limit of her re
sou* ces in many ways, but, at the
same time, it is clear that never
in her history has she been better
equipped to meet an enemy that
in the present when every effort
of the empire is being devoted to
the business of fighting.
Ireland might have had some
chance to win at a later period
but not even with the best aid
that could be given by Germany,
who is probably the real instiga
tor of the whole fiasco, could she
hope to prevail at the present
time.

The wireless telephone is not
going to stop wth terrestrial dis
tances. it is as goou lor tne solar
system as it is tor Paris or japan
-uaiconi now says lie will taik to
tile people, of Jupiter, -\tars or
\ enus it there is anybody there
to talk to. That seems highly
possiule. As one gets away trom
tne atmsophere ot the earth ttie
conditions tor wireless commun
ication are niorfe 'favorable. The
wireless operates in tile ether anJ
tfiis strange supernatural element
tills all space.
1 here is big Jupiter up in the
eastern skies tonight. There is
nothing but ether between here
and there, and through that the
human voice proceeds without
limit. It takes only a little over
hall aa hour for light To collie
from that planet to the earth, a
distance of 400,000.000 miles. Still
in the wireless telepixon* .*
pie up there arc our next door
neighbors. And Saturn is nearly
twice as far, but only an hour be
tween us, if we want talk to the
Saturnians, where the sua does
not look much bigger than a sil
ver dollar and where they have
no nights.
Then, would we dare hope to
talk to the Pleiades, away out in
the eastern sky, trillions of miles
away, those beautiful sisters who
are dancing the minuet through
the eternal years? Well, it is
perfectly scientific to hope so, if
the sisters are still there. What
a thought, talking through infin
ity to celectial creatures, getting
their views of things in general
For instance, we would like to
ask Merope if it paid to marry
a mortal, or of Electra, if she is
still weeping over the burning
of Troy.
WE CAN DO IT.

livery phone Main 151 and the People's
