From the Irish Times of March 6, 1909: "Before Mr. H.F. Feeley, Commissioner for Oaths, Mr. James Quinlan was sworn in as High Sherriff of the City of Waterford, and Mr. James Collins as Under-Sherriff." If he was sworn in in March 1909, he must be near the end of his term.

Man boobs ! It looks like another Quinlan, "M.", the Mayor of Waterford, liked full finery too - catalogue.nli.ie/Record/vtls000591753

Sharon Corbet It looks like he was appointed again to the same office in January 1911 as per the Irish Times
DannyM8 said:
It seems clear that he was High Sheriff for 1909 and 1911

Interesting beachcomber australia (the Quinlan connection rather than the shape made by the chain :) ) Do we think M Quinlan (Mayor) and J Quinlan (Sheriff) were related? Or just lots of Quinlans in that part of the world...?

Start today, make no delay!

Sack the sign writer! MacLean on every product and sign, and he (almost certainly, he) manages McLeans.
National Library of Ireland on The Commons said:
Carol Maddock Huh! Is this part of the MacMetoo movement, blaming the men for everything???
Carol Maddock said:
National Library of Ireland on The Commons No, it's the McLeanOut movement!

A testimonial letter (which I'm sure was not made up at all by the ad company!!) is included in one of the ads. The date looks to be 3/10/26 or 5/10/26.

From this article For their impact on the character of trade unionism, the most important state interventions were those on the railway and in agriculture. Under severe rank and file pressure, the London-based National Union of Railwaymen (NUR) sanctioned a national strike in Ireland in December 1916. As private interests would not meet the pay demand, the government stepped in to keep the war effort running smoothly, took control of Ireland's thirty two railway companies, and awarded a substantial war bonus. Over the next nine months the NUR's Irish affiliation rocketed from 5,000 to 17,000 members. It was a victory for the rank and file over the union’s London executive, as well as for the union over the railway companies. In 1917 NUR men launched the monthly journal New Way and developed the most articulate rank and file movement in Ireland during these years. The same article mentions James 'Big Jim' Larkin (and his hat and droopy moustache), but according to en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Larkin he was in the USA between 1914 and 1923.
