Another Feature of Meeting Was
Adoption of a Resolution Con
demning Great Britain’s Policy
Toward U. S. in Canal Dispute.
CHICAGO, Auf. 23.—Following the
gigantic demonstration for Irish horn*
rule at the thirty-eighth annual pic
nic of the United Irish Societies of
Chic ago, held in Bfandt Park, sons of
Erin hcie ate confident that in a few
weeks American Hibernians will ha v e
i ilsed n fund that will insure the
home rule for which they have fought
so long and which they have almost
brought about.
Fifteen thousand persons visited
the park during the day and they re
sponded liberally to the cal! for fund*,
with which to carry on their cam
paign Thiee thousand dollars was
raised at that time and the fund has
grown steadily since.
A feature of the occasion was the
reading by James T. Ulark, president
of the United Irish Societies, of a
feiegr-tm from William Randolph
Hearst. in which he warmly favored
home rule. The president was quick
to reply, expressing the thanks of the
societies for me co-operation they
have received in their work from Mr.
Hearst'* papers.
British Canal Stand Scored.
'Another Important feature of the
dav was the resolution prepared In
advance and passed by a unanimous
vote, opposing the British contention
over the Panama Canal tolls.
The resolution* stronglv uphold the
views of the United Stales that thie
country, having built the canal and
paid for it without aid. should have
the right of puiMing her own ships
through it without paying tolls, and
that this action of the United State*
is entirely within its rights as a na
tion and is not subject to the criti
cism of any other nation.
The w »rk of John Redmond, parlia
ment irv leader, in forcing the home
rule hill to the verge of final passage,
also was commended highly.
One of the most impressive features
of t.hg occasion was the exhibition of
a full-size model of the statue of Col
onel F. Finerty, the famous soldier-
journal i-t and a son of whom TCrin
is very proud.
Colonel Finerty wrote the story of
the Custer campaign against old Sit
ting Bull, and the massacre in which
Custer's whole command was wiped
out. In hie later years Colonel Fin
erty was editor of thfl Irish-American,
and devoted all his energies- to the
hf me rule campaign, now so nearly
won.
Work of Irish Sculptor.
The splendid statue of the old fight
er is the work of Professor Charles
J. Mulligan, of the Art Institute, a
pupil of MacMonnlea and Saint-Gaud-
dens.
Among the speakers who addressed
the enthusiastic throng were United
States Senator George R Chamber-
lain of Oregon, former Attorney Gen
eral Maurice T. Maloney, P. H.
O’Donnell Joseph E Ryan. John T.
Sutton, of Lincoln. Neb., and Harry
W Smith, of Springfield. Ill.
In pan. Mr. Maloney said: "We of
the Celtic race have always struggled
for a place in the sun. and have made
a good deal of history, but we have
been accused in tho past of not be
ing quite what we ought to be in the
old country, and did not act to our
own interest. English misgovern-
ment and oppression ware solely to
blame for this.
"Now I can see a new Ireland rising
above the horir.on. a nation once
again The Irish people had advanc
ed with giant strides, now that the
long tribulation of our night Is pass
ing away."
Senator Twiats Lion’e Tail.
United States Senator George E.
Chamberlain of Oregon said:
"My people came to this country
to avoid persecution in the mother
country, persecution by the English
Government. Ireland had no meas
ure of freedom in thou* times.”
Speaking on the Panama Canal, lie
said: "We have a perfect right to
arrange to suit ourselves ( barges on
a (anal that was made in America,
solely by American money. If Eng
land will not send her exhibits to the
San Francisco Exposition on this ao-
I would say let her keep them
at home.
"If we were not careful to with
stand these encroachments of the
British Government, we might in the
end find ourselves in the same case
a« Ireland finds herself to-day. I
foresee horns rule for that country,
Within the next two or three years
without question of doubt."

C ORDIAL telegrams of congratulation and thanks were ex
changed between William Randolph Ilcarst and James T.
(’lark, president of the United Irish Societies of Chicago on
the occasion of their annual picnic recently. Mr. Hearst expressed
his belief in the justness and the ultimate success of the cause of
home rule, while the head of the Irish societies in his reply earn
estly thanked the publisher for his co-operation in their work in
behalf of their fatherland. Mr. Clark’s message follows:
CHICAGO, Aug. 20, 1913.
Hon. William Randolph Hearat,
San Francisco.
The sentiment of the United Irish Societies toward your pa
pers has always been one of appreciation. Often In the past we
have admired your unselfish advocacy of the cause of liberty and
the 15,000 Irieh-Americans at the ceremony of unveiling of the
John F. Finerty monument were thrilled by your message in fa
vor of home rule for Ireland. This monument is symbolic of the
revitalized Irish nation that hat been the Inspiration of Parnell,
Redmond and other patriot!, and we believe it would strengthen
the home rule cause Immeasurably If you would publish In your
Sunday papers, In the near future, a comprehensive account of
our recent demonstration here, and emphasize Its significance to
Irish liberty.
JAS. T. CLARK, President,
United Irish Societies.
Mr. Hearst’s Home Rule Message
San Francisco, Aug. 15.
As an American believing ardently in liberty and oppor
tunity in equal rights and equal justice, I believe sincerely in
home rule for Ireland,
If I were an Englishman I would believe with even great
er earnestness in home rule not only for Ireland, but for every
individual integral part of the British Empire.
I would believe in genuine home rule and in general home
rule. I would believe in home rule which would insure com
plete independence in local government for every state and
in a general government which would afford every state equal
rights, equal liberties and proportionate representation.
Such just and genuine home rule is the best and perhaps
the only remedy for the threatened decadence and possible
dissolution of the British Empire. The preservation and per-
petuation of the British Empire in its full prestige and power
are only to be found in a voluntary federation of independent
states, not held together loosely by compulsion but molded
into an imperial entity by the natural and nationalizing forces
of mutual confidence, mutual affection and mutual interest.
If I were an Irishman I would take pride in this fight for
home rule, first because of the benefit I was helping to confer
upon my country and my own countrymen, and, secondly,
because of the benefit which will inevitably ensue to all other
sections of the British Empire and to other nations through
out the world.

an isolated spot in Texas until it has
now' reached the State of Alabama,
and I have been appalled by the dam
age wrought by its ravages. During
all these years I have been hoping
for the discovery by which the pest
could be exterminated, or even check
ed, but in both I have been disap
pointed.
Likes Zone Remedy Plan.
Some time ago the suggestion wa|
made to establish across the entire
cotton belt, east of the areas infested
by the weevil a zone of 100 miles, in
which no cotton should be planted.
It was argued that this would check
the eastward advance of the weevil, as
it subsists only on *he cotton plant,
and it was also argued by entomolo
gists and other experts on plant and
Insect life that my moving this zone
westward from year to year all the
weevils in the Cotton States would be
starved out and entirely exterminated
until the Mexican border was reached.
The idea appealed to me veiy
strongly, and I have given the sub
ject a great deal of study ever since.
I believe this plan is entirely feasi
ble. and while at first thought the
cost may seem prohibitive, yet when
the estimated cost is compared with
the estimated saving the zone plan
must be looked upon as a very sound
business proposition.
The Government. entomologists,
farm demonstration agents and others
admit that if this zone plan is put
into operation it will undoubtedly
check and finally exterminate the boll
weevil, as it v ill have nothing to feed
upon, and they admit at the same
time that no other plan that has been
tried so far has been at all effective
I hav6 had an estimate made of the
cost of the proposed zone and I think
it is a very liberal one. It follows:
■The cessation of cotton growing
er an area of 46,245 square miles, ir
which the crop is valued at $98,990,047
per annum, is at first glance such an
appalling suggestion that, few r have
even thought to look deeper.
See* Need of Substitute.
"We must add also to this the loss
In ginning business, which is com
puted at $2,915,518 er annum and the
loss In seed products totaling $.>,633.-
562. This means that there must be
compensation for a loss in earning
value of $107,539,127 per annum.
"In the first place, any scheme
which would call for the cessation of
cotton growing must provide the
means and knowledge for growing
vometniner else in the place of cottou
“A large crop of trained agricul
turists instructing in the cultivation
of new and profitable crops and In the
principles of rotation, maintenance
of soil fertility, etc., would help the
people to double and treble the output
of their land within very few years.
It would also be necessary to supply
seed for planting the 2.573,072 acres of
cotton land in other crops*. Thus the
greater pari of the prospective loss
o*n he met at a reasonable expense.
"The loss of the ginners and part of
the loss of the oil men will have to be
assumed by the Government. This
Iops would not exceed $9,000,000
• It would be necessary for the west
ern portion of the quarantine area to
remain out of cotton for por-’*' 1 "
three years.
"Last of the proposed quarantine
line there lies an area of 112.027
square miles of territory in which
cotton can be produced. The average
yield per acre (1908-1811) for this
territory has been 3,051.103 bales (500
pound*), of which 32.892 hales (500
pounds whs *#a island cotton. The
value of the latter was $4,224,235.*
Places Faith in Expert.
"The value of the remaining or up
land cotton valued at 11.9 cents per
pound, was $174,345,554. The valu
of the equivalent amount of seed pro
duced would he $33,943,532. Thus the
annua! value of the producers of the
crop to he protected is $217,514,211
"History of the boll weevil has
shown that if this area is not pro
tected Its production will he lowered
year by year until possibly 50 per cent
of the crop is taken, and sometimes as
high as 75 per cent."
The zone plan is the only sugges
tion that has yet been offered that
holds out any promise of relief. The
cost of tile zone plan is undoubtedly
great, but when the estimated cost
is compared with the estimated sav
ing. the protection of sections not
yet readied and the ultimate eradica
tion of the boll weevil ♦hrougbout
the entire cotton belt, the cost does
not seem io be prohibitive. In fact,
t he cost of the zone system will be
mild compared with the loss that
will be entailed if the boll weevil is
not exterminated.
Sea Island Crop Imperiled.
It is practically certain that if the
boll weevil spreads to the South At
lantic States the sea island cotton in
dustry will be wiped out entirely.
This is by reason of the semi-tropical
nature of the Uplands, the luxuriant
foliage which uffords a safe harbor and
breeding ground for the insects dur
ing winter and summer, and the fact
that there is neither extreme
nor extreme cold, both of which are
destructive to insect life. It is my
deliberate Judgment that if the boll
weevil reaches the sea islands, there
will be no more sea island cotton.
I have spoken of the aggregate
loss to the country, but the feature
that uppeals to me most strongly is
the loss to the individual. The coun
try may eventually recover from the
damage done to the cotton crop, but
the individual cotton farmer whose
income is cut in half or destroyed,
and whose property is marie to de
preciate in value, may never recover.
The loss to him will be irreparable.
My object in writing this is in
order that the people may know just
how seriously the cotton crop is be
ing menaced, and that they may dis
cuss and understand the only plan
that has been offered, which promises
to accomplish the result needed. If
any other plan is suggested that
promises to accomplish the result at
a les i cost or in a quicker manner.
I will give it my heartiest indorse
ment.
I will b«» glad to have tho larm-
iM and others of the South con
sider this problem carefully and
write me what they think of it.

Husband Declares That Their
Conspiracy Kept Him in Bed
Three Years.
CHICAGO, Aug. 23 —Alleging that
his wife was madly Infatuated with
a man of strange, weird, magnetic
powers, and that they conspired to
incapacitate him by administering
mysterious potions, Theodore Speab
er a former undertaker of Chicago,
tive and Lieutenant Governor Martin
Glynn are busy, the one strengthening
his defense, the other preparing to in
vigorate his attack. In the meantime,
the official business of the Empire
State is at a standstill.
The government of New York pre
sents a paradox unique to republican
government. The State has two Gov
ernors, and it has none. Two men
maintain they have the right to trans
act the State’s business. No business
is being transacted.
And in this struggle for power, the
battle seemingly centers about a
w oman, a woman w r ho has no voice in
the government, who is not even al
lowed to vote un v der the statutes of
the State.
Wife’s Illness Questioned.
In addition to the law point raised
by the defenders .of Sulzer that he
can not be impeached or tried for
things he did before he took the oath
of office, the defense lays greatest
stock on the declaration by Sulzer’s
wife that she. not the Governor, used
checks he had received as campaign
contributions to speculate on the stock
market.
On the other hand, it is learned that
the Frawley Committee, which
brought to light the charges on which
the Governor was impeached, will
make her confession the subject of a
iigld examination to shatter, if pos
sible. the defense, which will be based
largely on her statement.
In the meantime, Mrs. Sulzer. it is
reported, is dangerously ill, her nerves
broken, It is said, under the strain
which she has experienced since the
charges were brought against her
husband.
Sulzer’s enemies even question this
Illness. They question it so seriously
that It, too, is to be Investigated. The
first step in this investigation,
Both Accused of "Shamming."
The committee believes that "talk
ing too much" consisted of telling sto
ries of Mrs. Sulzer’s true condition
which were not to the liking of the
Governor. An inkling of this purpose
was contained in an interview with
Assembly Majority Leader Aaron J .
Levy, w r ho declared:
"Not only is Mrs. Sulzer’s confes
sion a sham, but the pretended illness
of Mrs. Sulzer is a sham, of which
William Sulzer is the chief perpe
trator."
How’ever, should Sulzer be re
moved from office by Tammany votes,
with all the judges of the Court of
Appeals voting in his favor, he woul 1
count it a vindicaton and proof of ills
assertion that he is being persecute*!
because he would not turn over the
State to Tammany Hall.

Her work on the demonstration set was satisfactory. The youthful
