During “the trouble” it s the least upset of the four prov- es. In Belfast partisanship has r! xtremely high and at bittér tide; in Munster there has been the fiercest untamed Galwayites and Siigo men have been uncompromising in thelr insistence on freedom. But in Lein- ster the prosperous grazing farmers, with Ireland fs. that with their wide acres; the tidy small tiller, the qllmeroll! sentry and the well-to-d6 -town mierchant and pro- fessional man have remuned singu- larly placid during the revolution, and now their chief interest is in a speedy resolution of the political problems so that confidéence may Testored and. the tautened nerves of the last six years may be relaxed.

At- Navan, where we passed our first night and. were mistaken for “black and tans” by the s and waitress of the Royal hostlery situated on the banks of the celebrated River Boyne, came Richard O'Cunnor, submanager of the Munster and Leinster Bank. “Give us a good government under rec State and Ircland wiH get prophesied O'Connor, a slight, be spectacled, serious young man. “The Irish people have found them- sélves in politics and I believe they can do the same in trade and industry. But they cannot keep on thinking politics alone if the people are to be E made happier and more prosperous.”| At - Mullingar, capital® of . County ‘Westmeath, a cattle fair was in prog- ress in the principal street. The beasts stand, heads in, haunches out, in circles, with herdsmen watchfully flicking their quarters to see that they keep their places. The Honorable John Patrick Hayden ‘was industriously at a cigar in the sanctum of the Westmeath Examiner, of which he is editor. On his mantel- plece was ap autographed photograph of John Redmond. Hayden was a member of parliament for a western constituency for several years and still s a constitutional nationalfst, though the party is extinct. ! ho can tell the destiny of Ire- land?” he inquired. “We are a strange .people and there .seems to be a fatality about us, shaping our ends to our undoing. The crying need of the country today is for peace, spirit in addition to the quietude that now reigns outwardly. Sofl Too Riek to THL “About us in Leinster is a grazing country.

Editor Kane, after relating with great circumstantiality that Francis Hackett, . the American Eritic and author, was born ir Kilkenny, and that a nephew of James Gordon Ben- nett, by name Bell, had retired to a country place near here for the sport, adverted to the uppermost topic in Ireland, f.c., What is to become of !rel-ndr need sboubokforaW.LDou‘lu mlosmloahdinthcprmnpd ‘ou will find in ourmmnyhndund hfih—,fineshou we believe values for the money than you hewllete.Our$7.00and88 oodm. bnnnflygootl thn!h for ycmtarememfil | Dmchn.boumputmhnllo‘owatwult i £ ‘We do not make one cent of We are a peaceable p!nple in Leinster,” he observed. *We want the fires to die down and we want to get back to normalcy, if I may be be permitted to borrow an Ameri- canism. Irishism has been asserted politically, now we want to see it as- serted socially and economically, so that Irishmen may have a better time of it and we may be happy again.” Joe, the boots of the clubhouse, gave me some light on the matter of the cats and of Kilkenny's psy- chology. When he came in with the hot-water container in the morning I asked him about the whereabouts of the cats. “Indeed, , sir,” said Joe, “I dou't| know. I' had' a card during ‘the trouble’ from a friend in Sligo. On it ‘wasg a picture of a cat and the words,’ ‘mee-0-e-u-w, Kilkenny, the soldiers’ home’ We were too guiet here and that was what he was re- ferring to.. We had only one ambush and that was of no account.” But Miss Josie, one of tiie three comely daughters of Dame Murphy, the proprietress of the clubhouse, soon afterward gave me the only serious version of the origin of the Kilkenny cat tradition I recelved here. “Sure,” said she, “years ago therc for the highest standard of qnllty at the lowest possible cest. cneortwoex!nprofih. the factory and save monev.
