Plunkett Is Out Again

The Irish Statesman, published by Sir Horace Plunkett, passed away in 1920 during the hottest period of the struggle of the Irish for Independence. Nevertheless it has sprung up anew, its latest issue labeled Vol. I, No. 1.

The means of the revival were secured by Sir Horace in America. Several Irish Americans guaranteed the expenses of the magazine for a period of years. While Sir Horace was in America several months ago making these arrangements, his house in Ireland was burned down by Republican marauders. Undaunted he completed his work here, and now the Irish Statesman is once more.

It is edited by George Russell, much better known as an author by the nom de plume, A. E. Its first number included an article On Throwing Out Dirty Water by G. B. Shaw.
