Lloyd George then quotes n letter
written to the Duke of Wellington by
Thomas Davis, "a fervent exponent of
tho Ideals of young Ireland," as advo
cating the retention of the Imperial
Parliament nnd the giving to Ireland
of a senate selected by the people, thc
right of levying customs nnd exclBe nnd
other taxes, the making of roads, linr
boVs, rnilwnjs, cnnnls nnd bridges, en
couraging manufactures, commerce, ng
riculture And fishing, nnd tho settling
of the poor laws, tithes, tenures, grand
juries nnd frnnchUcs.
All That O'ConnclI Ashed
"The British Government' the text
of the reply of Lloyd George continues,
"offered Ireland nil that O'ConnclI nnd
Thomns Davis nsked, nnd more: we
nre met only by nn unnifallfied demand
thnt wc should rccognlre Irelnnd as n
foreign Power. It is playing with
phrases to suggest thnt thc principle of
government by consent of the governed
compels recognition of thnt demand on
our part, or thnt In repudiating it v,o
nre strninlng gcogrnphienl nnd hlstor
Icnl consideration to justify any claim
to ascendancy over the Irish rncc.
"There Ih no volltlcal principle, how
ever clear, that tan be nppllod without
regard to limitations Impopod by pbvsl
cal nnd historical facts, Those limita
tions nre ns neccssnry ns the very prin
ciple itself to the structure of every
free nntion; to deny them would in
volve the dissolution of all democratic
States. It wns on these elcmentnr.v
groupds thnt we cnlled attention to the
governing force of thc geograhplcal
propinquity of these two Islands nnd of
their long nnd historic association, de
splto thc grent difference of character
of the races.
Quotes Lincoln on Union
"We do not believe a permanent ree
oncillintion between Grent Britain and
Irclund can ever be nttalncd without
recognition of their physical nnd his
torical Interdependence, which make
complete political nud economic separa
tion Imprnctlcable for both.
"I ennnot better express the British
standpoint in this respect thnn in the
words used of thc Northern nnd South
ern States by Abraham Lincoln in bis
first Inaugural address. They were
spoken by him on the brink of the
American Civil War, which ho was
striving to avert:
" 'Physically speaking,' he said, 'we
cannot separate. We cannot remove
our respective sections from each other
now and build an Impassable wall be
tween them. It is Impossible
then to make that intercourse more ad
vantageous or more satisfactory nfter
separation thnn before. Suppose
you go to wnr. you cannot fight nlways j
and when, after much, loss on both sides
nnd no gain for cither, you cease fight
ing, the Identical old questions ns to
terms of intercourse ngain are upon
you.'
Britain's Final Offer
"I do not think It can reasonably be
contended that thc relations between
Great Britain and Iceland are in any
different case.
"I thought I had mode it clear, both
in my conversations with you nnd In
my two subsequent communications,
that we can discuss no settlement which
Involves n refusal on the part of Ire
land to accept our Invitation to a free,
equal and loyal partnership In tho Brit
ish Commonwealth under one sovereign.
"I nm reluctant to prccipitnte this
issue, but must point out thnt pro
longntion of the present state of nffairs
is dnngerous. Action Is being tnken in
various directions which, If continued,
would prejudice thc truce and must ul
timately lend to Its termination. This
would indeed be dcplornble.
Stop Mere Writing of Notes
"Whilo therefore prepared to make
every allowance as to time which will
advance tho cause of peace, we cannot
prolong a mere exchange of notes. It
is essential that some definite and im
mediate 'progress should be made toward
a basK upon which further negotiations
can usefully proceed, your letter seems
to us, unfortunately, to show no such
progress.
"In this and my previous letters I
havo tet forth the considerations which
must govern the attitude of His Maj
esty's Government in any negotiations
which they undertake. If you are pre
pared to examine how far these con
siderations enn be reconciled with the
aspirations you represent, I shall be
happy to meet you nnd your colleagues.

Spring Lake Society
Lionizes Dempsey
Contlnnfd from I'ne Ono
tors that he used nt the Dempscy-Car-pentlcr
fracas not even tho mega
phone that wns his constant companion
until he got modern ideas nt the Jersey
City argument.
Fashion Show First
Joe mouthed It about n great dcnl,
but the force of his remarks was that
the boxing bouts would be delayed until
n fnbhion show on thc second floor of
the club wns completed. Seventeen
young women of the summer colony,
nil prominent socially, took part In this
nffair. They paraded in thc spotlight
with all that Is hew in gowns, from
nlnlnn AnahinlaB in VldiMnr H1,Um TllPtl
Joe informed the palpitating world that
the "boxing exhibition" would begin.
Joe added that this was the first time
in his life thnt he had ever announced
n fight on water nnd every ono knew
what he meant.
Joe Cole nud Al Diamond wcrovthe
first two heroes nnd they came all the
wny from New York to settle their
qunrrcl. From tho wny they went nt
it they must have ridden over in the
snme sent together. Even tho un
sophisticated women in the audlonce
senced that. One looked at It etendlly
through a lorgnette for about a minute
and said :
"This is not a marker to 'the fight in
Cbnrles Hay's last picture."
It wasn't, either, but It did not make
much difference, for most of the eyes
were concentrated on a box fitted with
special chalrB nnd marked "Mr. Jnck
Dempsey." It wns evident thnt the
renl feature of the evening was to be
"Araericn'a foremost fighting mnn.
Even the flag-drapod Governor's box
and the military band from Camp Dlx
did not hold the attention from that
gaping space.
Applause and More
Just as Cole and Diamond finished
their waltr the great event occurred.
There was a strong odor of perfume,
a vision of n silk shirt nnd Mister
Kearns appeared nbout 100 yards be
hind tho perfume. Jnck wns in his
element. He Is a society boy. And
right after Jnck enmo Dempsey himself,
nnd tho dub pool echoed and re-echoed
the applause. .
Joo Humphries bounced back into tno
ring and showed tho social register
.,.. 1 ..,,n,nplnr wnfl llko. WOrK-
Ing just like tho nominating speaker
at a national conveuuuu, no fv .
secret from the crowd who ho was
tnlklng about right up to the last min
ute. Any one familiar with Dempsey'a
record would have been puazlad at that
becauso her is what Joe said:
"It is my sacred privilege to Intro
duce, to you this evening the foremost
fighter In America n mnn who has de
fended the American colore nud kept
the fighting supremacy of the world on
this side of the Atlantic. Ha la honored
and respected by every one who knows
and loves tho manly art of wlf-defense.
Ho stands hero tonight willing to da
fend his title of champion again and
again ngalnat foreign competition i or
Invasion. Ladles and gentleman (Joe
V r
got two or three more 'Indies and gen
tlemen' In his speech), I nm proud to
Introduce to you America's Idol, Mr.
Jack Dempsey."
After tho cheers died down somebody
thought of the Governor, and a man
yay behind Joo Humphries, ns far as
voice went, got in the ring and mumbled
something. But every one knew the
Governor nnd it did not mnke much
difference what his Introducer said. The
Governor wanted to talk about Jack
Dempt-ey, the socred game of boxing
nnd the Stnte of New Jersey In tha
order named.
Praises Commission
The Governor prnlsed the .science of
boxing ns practiced in New Jersey nnd
pointed to the personnel of his boxing
commission with pride. Then he
warmed up on the subject of Dnmpscy
nnd addressed Amcrlen's foremost
glndlntor while he stood In the ring
beside him. Unfortunately for the the
ntries of the Governor's 'address, ho had
occasion to mention the Dcmpscy-Car-pentler
fight. He said:
"Within an hour after the fight, or
boxing match,- so cleanly Is the sport
practiced In New Jersey, both Dempsey
nnd Carpenticr were able to nttend
dinners given In their honor."
When the Governor snld the word
"Cnrpenticr" it very nearly broke up
the speech. Thc Governor had to stop
talking until the applause died down
and smiled sympathetically nt Dump9ey.
Mentioning Carpentler under the cir
cumstances wns undoubtedly a faux
pas. But he made up for it when he
gnve Dempsey the final accolndo by
saying, "It is a matter of great pride
to me to be privileged to siana in tnc
ring with tho Hon. Jack Dempsey."
Then Jnck got his cheers.
Joe Humphries got on his tnlking
clothes ngain and announced thnt the
girls who had tnken part In tho fashion
show were eagor to do honor to the
rhnmplon nnd" meet him personnlly.
The seventeen filed Into tho ring, climb
ing through the ropes with the nid of
the chnmplon's mnssive hnnd, and
formed in a group about him. Then,
to n slow march, the girls circled the
ring half n dozen times while Jack took
his place In the ring nnd filed around
with them. Then he helped them out
again with Chesterficldlan grace nnd
nnnounccd thnt ho would referee the
next bout.
This frnens, the only one not refer
red to by Harry Ertle, the arbiter of
the big fight In Jersey City, wns be
tween two boys named Buck Walter
and Johnnie Jones. They seemed a lit
tle more peeved at one another than tho
other chaps had been, nnd at tbe sight
of real blood the house roused up a
little more enthusiasm.
No Alarm Clock Needed
This roEe to a roar of approval when
thc Jones person sent Walter to slum
berland. Ho did not need nn alnrm
clock to wake up, in fact it might bet
ter be dowlbed as n nap than a dcen
sleep, but it was nenr enongh a knock
out to satlify the crowd nnd to have
Bcferco Dempsey lift the hand of the
victorious boxer.
Then Demnsey took his Dlace In thc
specially decorated box and prepared to
smile benignly on the next qunrrel.
But right in the middle of it, while
every one wns wntcmng the ring
either tired with social life or annoyed
becnuse the crowd had stoDned looking
at him Mr. Dempsey slipped from tho
ciubnousc and motored back to At
lantic City.
The boxing bouts marked the first of
a two-day series of entertainment for
the benefit of the hoipltal. Today
there will be water sports on the
lake and a country fair on the
shore. In the eveninir there will be a
cabaret show, headed by local talent,

Daix Withdrawal
Is Still Mystery
Contlnned from rose One
ones" wcro Informed ns to what was
abffut to happen ns enrly ns 1 o'clock
yesterday afternoon.
Nothing has been heard an yet from
Scnntor Penrose concerning the sudden
shift, though it is believed ho knew of
It in advance.
Noll Said to Be tn Washington
Oscnr Noll, Penrose representative,
who attended tho Inst of the Mayor's
conferences on the ticket, is said to bp
in Washington today calling on the
Senator. Vnro followers nrc clnted
ever tho turn events hnvo taken, and
freely predict thnt Senntor Penrose will
support the "fifty-fifty" ticket.
Those who have any connection with
the situation did not enre to be quoted
over their own names, hoping to be
able to save something out of the wreck.
Privately they did not hesitate to brnnd
the vi'ork of the political mnnlpulntors
as tho most disgraceful boldly exhibited
by machine politicians In years.
Antl-Vare leaders believe the manip
ulation nnd wire-pulling of thc Inst
forty-eight hours hove been for the pur
pose either of Insuring tho success of
the fifty-fifty ticket or of leaving a
modified harmony ticket which would bo
acceptable to the Vnres and the Penroso
men.
Telephoned to Washington
It was pointed out thnt tho first move
wns tho withdrawal of James B. Shee
han as a candidate for renominatlon
for Register of Wills. This is credited
to Varo nnd Penrose leaders working
jointly. In fact, it is known that just
beforo Sheehan withdrew the long-distance
telephone bctwoon Philadelphia
and Washington was kept busy. Then
enmo tho successful move by which
Mayor Moor was induced to take
David T. Hart out of the race as a
candidate for Register of Wills. Tills
left the field clear for Magistrate Camp
bell, the fiftv-fifty candidate for Regii
tcr of. Wills, bo far as Vflre ticket
is concerned. Campbell Is a Penrose
iicutenant. In exchange it is dpclared
that Dalx, a Penrose follower, wns
pulled off! the ticket bo as to clenr the
way for Watson. Watson, howevor,
got moro out of the deal thnn did Camp
bell, as tho former was left without vir
tually nny organized opposition.
Substantiation of the charges thnt
Senator Penrose knew nbout the rca
bons for the Dalx wlthdrawl was seen
by independents In tho frpqiicnt dccla
rntlonn during the last few dayn of
Wcglcln-that ho was for whatever Sena
tor Penrose wjntcd. .
Tho Dalx candidacy was announced
following a conference between Penrose,
Weglcln and Dalx. When Wcgleln was
asked why he wns opposing Watson ho
said that he was for Penrose. Inde
pendcntK, therefore, charged that eg
jein, Daix'a political backer, did not
go counter to Penrose when the with
drawal of Dalx was brought about.
Orie of thc sialics ns to the reasons
for the deal is that Penrose hopes to
make up a ticket which will result in
tho Vnres getting the election of
Watson, but losing thc election of .
Freelaud Kendrick for Receiver of
Taxes. Peniosc is more favorable to
Watson than he Is to Kendrick. Sen
ator Vnre, however, bald that Kendrick
and Watson would both be nominated
and elected.
The only thing the Mayor would sa
in connection with tho withdrawal was
this: . ,
"Mv information from the Penrose
nnd Voters League i-ourcc today was
that Mr. Dalx would be the nntl-Vaiu
candidate for Cltv Treasurer, Mr.
Acker, another Penroso man, having
declined to run. I have no further
comment to make at this time."
It was apparent that the Mnyor was
Kerturbcd over the turn in affairs. It
aB been known for some time tbnt ho
hns been annoyed nt thc delay of bona
tor Penroso in ibsulng his statement on
local politics and thnt he felt the Scnn
tnr should clvo him more wholc-hcurted
'support in thc light against the contrac
tor boss combine.
Wcgleln Didn't Know .
Mr. Wcgleln bald that he knew noth
ing of the Dalx withdrawal until after
It had become on accomplished fact He
said that Mr. Dalx had been uncom
municative ns to his reasons, laying
them on personnl grounds.
It Is probable now thnt thc League
wi'l indorse Arthur G. Graham, of the
Forty-second Word. Mr. Grahnm
loomed large for tho League s indorse
ment before Mr. Dnlx entered the field.
After Mr. Acker had retired from
the field of possibilities, following his
indorbcment by the League, that organi
zation had to look nbout for available
timber. Mr. Graham's name has been
mentioned prominently, and he Is
known to have mnny friends in the
League. Mr. ' Graham lives at 502
Sixty-seventh avenue, forty-second
Ward. He bus been nn active anti-organization
worker since 1912.
Ho was an ardent supporter of Theo
dore Roosevlt, nnd did much nctlve
work in the Inst Roosevelt campaign.

Last Three
--.!. - - '
Days of the
August Sale
of Furniture
, The last three days of the Sale will, no
1 doubt, be the greatest since the first week.
There has always been a rush the last few
days of our Sales, but in no former August
Sale have late purchasers been so fortunate
as will those who come on Monday, Tuesday
j and Wednesday of next week.
i New shipments have come in almost up
to the end of this week notably some very
handsome Bedroom Suits to be sold at
$156.50, which is less than one-half the price
! of a year ago, or fully one-third less than
present value. This is a part of a special
! close-out purchase, which includes many
l other equally wonderful values.
I
! Our Stock is as
j Varied and Attractive
as on the First Day
of the August Sale
It has been a wonderful Sale up to now
i exceeding last August in volume of busi
I ness, which means a vastly larger quantity
of Furniture has been sold, for prices are
, now very much lower than a year ago. It
1 will be a wonderful Sale to the very last
hour. Such an opportunity is too good to
1 miss for we cannot possibly continue to
sell at August Sale prices after the 31st of
I August. Special lots will no doubt be
orrerea irom time to time, but there will be
no further opportunity to choose from
Our Entire Stock
At Reduced Prices
Further details of the values will be
found in Monday morning newspapers;
but, whether you read more, or not, you
may come straight to the Store, with assur
ance of finding ample variety for critical
selection.
