Excerpt from War Issues for Irishmen: An Open Letter to Col. Arthur Lynch
Irish are all born soldiers of freedom, is remind ing us that if we are too poor to pay we are not too poor to fight, and asking us pretty emphatically which side we are on. Sinn Féin, replying through the mouth of its Congress the other day that it will make itself felt at the Peace Conference (whatever that may he), apparently by some mystical force inherent in doing nothing, has made itself so acutely ridiculous that it had really better elect the ex-kaiser Grand Master of its Order, and retire with him to Dalkey Island, which he would doubtless prefer to Saint Helena as a jumping-off place for any future operations his enthusiasm for Irish liberty may suggest.
There is still time for more Irishmen to affirm their true allegiance to Democracy. They will find in the following pages no attempt to confuse that allegiance with the false allegiance which is only the bargain of Esau. And I am happy to be able to add that they will find no argument which is weakened, and some which are strengthened, by the astonishing turn which Europe has taken since my letter to Colonel Lynch was penned six weeks ago.
