It is hoped. therefore. that

The Daily Telegraph likewise refus:
ed to believe Ireland would deliberate-
ly reject the South African Premier's
“masterly and impressiV'e case for ac—
ceptance of the GOVemment's propos-
als." and said a way still remained
open for the introduction at the meet-
ing of the Dail Eireann on Tuesday
“of the saving element of practical
statesmanship into the negotiations on
the Irish side."
The Daily Express declared its be-
lief that Mr. de Valera was having
trouble with the extremists of his
party. and ventured t0 predict 1"” re-
ply was not the last word from Dub-
lin.
George‘s “generous proposals" would
bone a faVorable effect upon the great
body of the Irish people The news-
piper thought some changes in detail
might still be possible. but agreed with
other newspapers that the GOVern-
ment's proposals must be England's
last word. adding “and they ought to
satisfy every reasonable aspiration of
the Irish race."
Mr.
Government's offer.
the 11:1in Chronicle. revealed many
hands and two tendencies. ., ”one hos—
tile to peace. and the other practical
and favorable and recognizing there
was something to negotiate."
“The hostile tendency.‘ 'the newspa-
per continued. “seems to have won the
upper hand in the Council which
but it
remains to be seen whether Irish pub-
lic opinion and the opinion of the liail
Eireann will confirm that supremacy."
The. Daily Mail said Premier Lloyd
George. would ”have the sympathy of
his country behind him in the attitude
he had taken."
The Daily Herald. representing the
Socialist Labor view. declared the
British offer was “essentially short of
the just and logical Irish demand. and
created a deadlock which causes us to
look to the future with anxiety and
dread. 'I‘his newspaper will stand by
the Irish. whatever decision they
reach. but it hopes the hall Eireann.
in order to save lives and tiling peace.
will be able to accept something less
than Ireland's due."
The Morning Post. taking the view
that the negotiations with Ireland had
reached a most critical stage. de-
nounced the Gmernmsnt for having
deliberately placed this country in the
position of a defeated nation by suing
for terms. "
“Mr. de Valera and his fellows." the
newspaper added. "not unnaturally
decided they would have only to ask
for more to get it. The Liberal and
Labor Parties and the gerater propor-
tion of the British press have given
them every encouragement to belie-ve
they would succeed.”
“All of Ireland' a best friends." said
the Manchester Guardian. “and all
who regard with passionate shame the
wrongs she has suffered will hope and
pray she will not now close the door
of peace."
The Yorkshire Post declared the
Government had already gone far in
even undertaking negotiations under
existing conditions. adding that "what-
ever the consequences may be. it will
not and can norgo further."
The Scotsman. of I'I.dinburgh said:
”’I eacc is now in utmost jeopardy. and
if lllt Sinn I'ein has spoki 11 its last
Vv'md, the rnulsion of temper in this
country will be instant and over-
VV he lining. "
The Glasgow Heia ld said the Gov-
ernment had made an offer of‘ 'nnpar-
alleled liberality and magnanimity."
adding that the continuance of nego-
tiations was not precluded. "because
the 811111 Rein has. to reckon with the
reason of Ireland and the sentiment of
the civilized world."
DI'IHJN. Aug. 15.———In discussing
the situation which has arisen through
the publication of letters exchanged
by I'iumonn de Valera and Prime Min-
ister Lloyd George. the Dublin Inde-
pendent today rejoiced that negotia-
tions looking to peace in Ireland had
not been broken.
“It would be tragic if they were,"
the newspaper said. “and it Is strongly

ter from Eamonn de Valera to Prime
Minister Lloyd George. rejecting the
Government‘s offer of dominion status
for Ireland. as talk of peace has been
regarded with much scepticism. It is
pointed out that should the truce in

The investigations grew out of the

read character and forecast the future.

FACTS ABOCT ASBESTOS.
The art of weaving the mineral fiber
in aslt‘stos. which" is ordinarily in-
destructible. was rediscovered at a
comparatively late period of civiliza-
tion. VV'oven asbestos was used in the
ancient pyre to preserve the royal
ashes Charlemagne is said to have
had a tablecloth made of asbestos and
to haV c cleaned it by throwing it into
the fire. which consumed the dirt. thus
illustrating in a spectacular manner
one of the most valuable properties of
this material.
The fiber of the best grade of as-
bestos is beautiful and silky and has
elasticity. and tensile
according to the United
States Geological Survey. Department
of the Interior. It can be spun into
thread so fine as to run 225 yards to
the ounce. and-as it is lncombustible
as well as a nonconductor of heat and
electricity and resists the action of
most ordinary acids. its field of use is
large. The possible applications of
asbestos are far from fully appre-
ciated not only by the general. public
but by manufacturers. who are in
search of material for special uses to
which asltstos may well be applied.
I‘c'haps it is most generally used to
make fireproof cloth for theater cur-
tains. It has been used also for mak-
ing firemen's clothing. Everywhere in
‘cold countries it is extensively em-
ployed for covering furnaces. boilers.
and pipes to prevent loss of heat. As-
bcs‘os is a good insulator.
THE LESSER EVIL.
A notorious gassip one‘day went
to Dean W. D. \Vilson. burning with
indignation.
"Oh. doctor. have you heard the
disgraceful news? The young peo-
ple of your church are going to have
a dance, they say. How shocking.
\Vhat do you think about it??"
To which the siintly scholar re-
sponded sweetly:
