was
little

in
the city last
evening.
bt
a
series
of raids
upon
small
business
plac-
es
were carried
out
by armed
men,
who
held
up
the occupants
of
stores
with

volvers wile the cash
drawers

led.
One
shop-keeper
was
dangerously
wounded
during a hold-up.
Dublin, Dec.
21st.
The
majority eith-
er for or
against
the Irish
treaty
will be
small; according
to the
political
corres-
pondent
of
the
‘‘Freemans
Journzl’’,

his readers

directing
their
e _orts towards making
clear
their belief
that
the choice
to
be
taken
is
not
be-
tween
the
status
provided
in the
treaty
and
that
of
an
independent
republic.
They contend
that Eamon
De Valera’s al-
ternative
proposals,
which have
not
yet
been
made
publie,
differ only in
a slight
degree
from
the
terms
of
the
treaty.
Narmly
supporting
the advocates
of
ra-
tification,
the
-*‘lrish Independent’’
this
morning
says
‘'ln Heaven’s
name let Ire-
land take the
substance
and
not dissipate
her
energies
in
discussing
shadows’’,
Both
the ‘‘lndependent’’ and
the
‘‘Free-
mans
Journal’’
feature
the
comparison
of the oath
of allegiance
piovided
for in
the treaty,
and
the
oath
which,
it
is
said,
Mr.
De
Valera
propeses.
Both
newspapers
in
heir
ca>
ion refer
to the
two oaths
as
‘Tweed’
lum
and
tweed-
die-dee’’.
The
''Fre

Journal’’
as-
serts,
the
Government
with
she
consent
of tte
governed
and
self-determination
of people’s
have
vanished
with
the
rve-
No
