Ireland, the Chief Actor on World's Stage—The Passing
of King Peter of Serbia—Will the United States
Give Anything for More Wood Pulp?-- The New
Alberta . Ceatbinet—Leagtfae of Nations Grows in
Importance.
Ireland is the chief actor on the world's
stage to far as Britain is concerned at
this writing. That country has come
perilously near to the resumption of the
abominable warfare that has spread its
Might over the land for months past, to
be halted only by the negotiaucris over
the proffer of the British Government of a
most generous measure of home rule and
which Premier Lloyd George has declared
will not be enlarged. Eanion de Valera.
President of the Irish Republic, as he is
styled by his followers, has made a speech
before- the Dail Eireann—the Sinn Fein
Parliament—in which he categorically
rejected the offers for himself and his
colkegues of the goverment that sup-
ports him. This following his refusal
reply to Premier Lloyd George produced
a feeling of anxiety throughout Bntain
and Ireland that neither of the countries
baa known since the negotiations were
entered upon. There were incidents about
the mating of the Dail Eireann as dram-
atic u those in a play of thrills and
climaxes. Members took the oath Of
allegiance to the republic. Vast crowds
congregated inside and outside of the
Manion House to Dublin whet the
meetings were held. Those on the outside
prayed and sang during the long hours
they awaited news. Inside. despite in-
junctions that quiet was to be observed,
there were tumultous scenes when de
Valera and his followers reiterated their
determination for an independent republic
or wahine. In fact, viewed from the
standpoint of the variou- enactments,
regulations and proclamations called forth
by the carte of events in Ireland. it wasa
meeting of seditionists preaching sedition.
In some countries it would never have
been a llowed. Britain facilitated the
meeting. her de -ire for peace being
paramount. In spite of the" "no
compromise" spirit of his addresses,
there was in many parts of
le Valera's declarations an indication
that negotiations sere still progressing.

councils in the allied camp. no less than
the lack of men to spare tour the venture.
resulted in delays in sending aid to Serbia
which were fatal. Kin Peter aecorn-
panted the remnants of his armies and tate
stream of attendant refugees in a remark-
able maedi through the mountains into
Albania. 'T'he sick and wounded were

a strong Serbian force, recuperated. ex-

treneferred to the Saloniki front. Here
they played a wonderful part in the
advance that broke the power of the
aulgartien and their allies wbo had over-
run Serbia. That country was (teed and

was seventy-seven years of age when he
died, had a keen mind. He repeatedly
warned the allies that Bulgaria would
throw in her lot with the enemy side, and
sought permission to attack Bulgaria be-
fore the latter country took that step.
Th is was denied. Too late the allies
realised that Peter and his ad-
visers bad foresight. But at the least
the allies could not be caused of having
provoked war on Bulgaria or tacitly sup-
ported any such measure. They played
the game and Bulgaria backed the wrong
base as subsequent events showed.
President Harling has given his blessing

Reference of the Silesian issue to the
League of Nations has given that body -a
greatly increased importance in the eyes
of the gnat powers as well as the smaller
nations of Europe. It comes at a most
significant pend in the history of the
League, the assembly of which is to hold
a season at Geneva in tbe course of a few
weeks. As Germany has perforce become
a temporary member through her accept-
ance of the reference on Silesia, the ques-
tion of her permanent membership in the
body b now a live one. Prominent mem-
bers of the League have been advocating
that course for some time, feeling that
many questions involving Germany could
be better settled there—in other words,
that the League should take the place of
the Supreme Council of the allies in the
efforts to straighten out all tangles arising
out of the peace treaty. It u of interest
