There were hints of opposition by
the Sinn Fein irreconcilables who
demand a republic and absolute
separation from the British empire.
as the cabinet ministers gathered to
discuss the treaty with President
Kamonin De Valeria.
Leaders of the Irish parleys were
solemn as they gathered for the
meeting. None would express an
opinion as to the decision the cab-
inet will take but privately many
said they expected a final agreement
on the pact.
The general attitude of the com-
mon people in Ireland is one of
resignation. They believe the mat-
ter is in the hands of the Dial
Kireann and the British parliament
and they are content to await the
decision of the two bodies that are
doing the business.''
Opinions Are Guarded.
Opinons in the Dial were closely
guarded.
A dispatch was quoted Sean
O'Kally, Irish envoy to France and
former speaker of the Dial, saying
he would vote asainst the treaty.
"I do not doubt that the Dall will
ratify the pact." O'Kelly Is quoted as
paying. "But I am sure it will cause
ii lively discussion and I, for one
am against It."
1.0rd Mayor of Dublin declared the
agreement "should fill every man,
woi«an and child abiding In Ireland
with delight."
George Russell. Irish author and
economist, said:
"I am enchanted. Now at last w-e
will be able to betake ourselves to
our arts and Industries and to give
tree play to our hopes and our
ideals."
Essentials of Freedom.
The Kreeman's Journal, a sup-
porter of Sinn Fein, stated:
"In the articles of settlement will
be found every essential of that free-
dom for which the Irish people
fought over seven long sorrowful
centuries. Now let the people of
Ireland make their own govern-
ment."
The Dublin stock exchange show ed
a buoyant reaction, railway and in-
dustrial issues and banking being
substantially boosted.

The name of the Duke of York was

The talk of a general election was
on the increase. February is looked
upon as the most likely time. It is
pointed out there will be seventy-
three Irish places vacant in parlia- <
ment aud 106 if Ulster joins the j
south. This would require a re-elec-
tion to make realignments.
"One thing I wai* to make clear,"
Michael Collins, who signed the pact
for the Sinn Fein declared in an in-
terview, is that the association of
Ireland with the empire isn't the as-
sociation of a dominion of empire. It

be shaped so that two peoples may

"I believe there is a new era
