Yom jgw wkm yom buy il--ym mm mkm jm m9 A HIGHEST Land league of Scotland, which has been actively at work in Scotland during recent years, aiming to secure .'Scottish independence. It is, in fact, the spearhead of the Scotch Sinn | Fein. Among the leaders of this Highland league are the Earl of Marr, Hon. Rory Erskine and Pringle, the most aggressive of Scottish members in the British parliament. Their Irish kinsmen now, as always, wish them all success. The Democratic members of the foreign relation committee of the U. S. senate are inviting sharp criticism for themselves by reason of their attitude towards the 20,000,000 Americans of Irish blood who ask that justice be done for Ireland. No Democrat t voted in favor of the jgreat hearing of Saturday, August ;30. It was the votes of Republicans exclusively that made the hearings possible. Th^n, at the hearing, for the first hour all Democrats were abtion this week and a large number of our citizens are in attendance.

Senator Hitchcock, the Demo- | oratic leader, shortly following the | hearing, gave an interview, which j was spread throughout the country, j in which he said: "It was believed ! by the administration that only Irish- ' men of th£ radical agitator type were against the treaty and the covenant. He was sure, he said, that the intelligent and thoughtful Irish of the United States were not against the covenant." Senator Hitchcock's sneering remarks are insulting to 20,- 000,000 Americans. Offers Good Positions | Among the nearby cities and towns offering positions to girls and women at good wages and under the very best working conditions is the city of Elgin. Her chief industry, the Elgin watch factory, at this time has posi- ; tions open for quite a number of fe- ! male workers and if there are any in 1 McHenry or the immediate vicinity who are in search of employment we j would suggest a trip to the city of watches. McHenry is already quite j well represented in this institution and, judging from the fact that many of these workers have been employed there for a dozen or more years evidences satisfaction on the part of the (employer. - Besides ideal working conditions at good wages, the company provides in the National House a place where board and room are obtainable at a very reasonable cost. These, together with the company's insurance and profit sharing systems, place the Elgin watch factory in a class by itself and once more we reiterate, if there are any girls or women in -this community who are looking for employment, don't overlook Elgin.
