It was their inability to unite warring tribes which enabled the English to conquer the island centuries ago. The records of many lands contain accounts of the brilliant individual exploits of the sons of Erin, yet there is a saying that the minute one Irishman gets his head above the crowd another | join Irishman throws a brick at it. There is something untamable about an Irishman and the last thing he will accept is domina- tion from another Irishman. These traits of the Irish character—if in truth they exist— may be somewhat strained under the constitution recently adopted for the Emerald Isle. For an analysis of this unusual document The Tribune is indebted to Flora Cameron Burr of Bottineau, long an advocate of independence from England for all the Celtic peoples. First of all it establishes a Triune God as the source of all authority with the right to rule placed in the hands of the people. An adaptation to democratic principles of the old theory of the Divine right of kings. Freedom of worship and the right to any religion is guaranteed as long as religion is not against pub- lic order or morals, but religious endowments by the state are barred. Thus church and state are definitely separated. Gaelic is made the national language and is to be taught in Irish schools under an educational law which is very similar to that effective in North Dakota.

By RODNEY DUTCHER (Tribune Washington Correspondent) Washington, July 14.—The names and favorite legal tricks of various tax evaders and avoiders have now been paraded by the De- partment before the joint congres- sional committee, and it now remains for Congress to plug up some loop holes in order to make the job of some 45,000 private tax lawyers that much harder, But it would be a mistake to say that the treasury had not lost a few tail feathers in the process, It ought to be said for the Treasury that its primary motive in putting on this show was to rouse Congress to the point of some remedial legislation, thereby increasing revenues. But there is circumstantial evidence that the administration did hope to make necessarily choosey in names which it toosed out to the lons. The Treasury took its first spank- ing when conservative leaders in Con- gress turned down its have Treasury agents hold available to the joint committee, fur- ther 3 administration hopes of bringing evaders and avoiders here in person. One of the first committee reac- tions was to ask the Treasury, in ef- fevers) the devil have you boys n?” Although it had been losing hun dreds * thousands of dollars a over a five-year period through a evasion scheme involving fake fore! insurance companies, and agents hi Teported frauds and evasions through the scheme, no action was taken until February. And, of course, the general question was raised why the Treasury hadn’t made its public exposures long before. x * 8 They May Be Lobbyists, Too | Revenge Fail Light Showers Help Keep H Down With Other Parts of U. &.

This, apparently, is an Irish compromise between property rights and the theory of “human rights above property rights” about which so much has been said in this country in the last few years. Stress is placed on the family as the social unit and ade- quate provisions are made for the protection of mothers and children. Following this idea out to its logical end, divorce is prohibited by constitutional ukase. The presidential term is seven years and the president can serve only two terms. He is elected by the direct vote of the people. Obviating recurrent fights over the amendment of the con- stitution—or perhaps insuring them—provision is made for the revision of the document every 12 years. The national parliament has two branches, one elected by direct vote of the people and the other consisting of 11 “nomi- nated” members and 49 elected by the people. Executive power is placed in the president, even to the appointment of judges. Taken as a whole, the document would probably be termed radical by some in the United States and “forward looking” by others. At the very least it contains interesting innovations and other democratic nations will watch with interest to see how they work out. A King Is Dethroned Events of the last few years have caused a bloodless revo- lution in North Dakota. The farmer in these parts is wonder- ing if he hadn’t better change his allegiance—whether, in truth, wheat should any longer be regarded as the king of our agri- cultural economy. The reason is apparent if one looks at the record. The last good crop of wheat in this area came in 1982. Since then we have been lucky to get our seed back. This year there will be a few fair fields in this area but in most fields the hope of a crop vanished with the drouth and windstorms of May. People talk and think wheat because they got into the| habit after the war. Before that.time Western North Dakota was essentially a cattle country—and it prospered. But high prices and the good yields of early years caused the golden grain to be crowned. Besides, it was an easier method of The bonanza wheat days represented the “life of Riley” but they were too good to last. Farm experts and some others have long recognized the handicap but it is as hard to get away from one bad habit as from another—and wheat has gotten to be a bad habit in this state. Or at least there is a tendency to over-indulge in the practice of raising it. The variety of reasons which have combined to defeat the successful growing of wheat also is a warning. In 1983 and ’34 it was the drouth. In 1935 there was plenty of rain but the rust and heat struck. In 1986 it was the drouth again and this year| cheb it is a combination of drouth and rust. - This is convincing to all but those who will not see. Such a record, taken with the history of other years, indicates very strongly that not only is wheat not THE crop for Western North _— but it is hardly even a GOOD crop for this part of. the state. North Dakota farmers cannot longer give their allegiance to a profligate and unstable king. In his place they might bet-| ‘The most irritating ter have the milk cow as queen with the beef animal as a consort | {P,"y microphone are and hogs, sheep and poultry as the court retinue. ‘The Spanish war may be heartless, but some pictures show thet those | world who are taken serlousiy Adis executed are usually accorded final 2i-machine gun salute.

The fact that thousands of tax law- yers have been graduated into private practice from the Bureau of Internal Revenue after intensive courses — at government expense — in the latest, most improved methods of tax evasion flourished through the Wilson-Hard- ing - Coolidge - Hoover period and is atill going strong.

But it seldom does act where the interests of lawyers and lobbyists Scores, if not hundrers, Congress bear in mind northwest continuing due to feed shortage, the report concluded. U. 8.

Is it all right for drinking water, or what precaution should we take to make water carried in such a tank safe for drinking? (W..W.) é Answer—The tank is all right as a container for drinking water. Unless you have assurance from the health authorities that the water is safe for drinking, you should either boil the water or disinfect each quart Grawn for drinking purposes. For emergencies a drop or two of common tincture of fodin in the quart of water, allowed to stand half an hour, will make the water safe to drink.
