Etendue et contenuRefers to 'engenious eddy of "Queries" appearing in "The Free State" news sheet by Prof. Eoin MacNeill, whereby he suggests that, to Republicans, since the existence of the Republic seems to them independent of the majority vote, governmental function and recognition by foreign powers, they should be content with this immaterial Republic and let the material Unionists have their way....', Refers to this as 'facetious cynicism', but with an appreciation of a fact that 'the idea of a free and sovereign Ireland... can never die... and... unconquerable allegiance will be given, as it is given to de Valera now... the Republic lives by hope, It is not the dream of sentimentalists... it is...the strong, simple purpose of simple men, straight free thinkers and fighters...'. Refers to Wolf Tone, Robert Emmett, Padraig Pearse, Terence MacSwiney, Kevin Barry, and the 'ignoble treaty,,,the Republic lives today with a three-fold life...', legally and constitutionally, actively in the will of those aiding the Army and loyal to the Chief, and spiritually in the devotion to the ideal. The Republic is a '....victory that shall be.'.
