American Hibernians Respond
Liberally to Appeal Made After
Great Demonstration in Chicago
Against England’s Domination.
Another Feature of Meeting Was
Adoption of a Resolution Con
demning Great Britain's Policy
Toward U. S. in Canal Dispute.
CHICAGO, Aug 23.—Following the,
gigantic demonstration for Irish hom*
rule at the thirty-eighth annual pic-
n:e of the United Irish Societies* of |
Chicago, held m Brand* Park, sons of
Frin here are confident that in a fev»
" eeks American Hibernians will ha"e
i Ned a fund that will insure the
home rule for which they have fought
*o long ar i which they have almost
bro iR.it about.
Fifteen mouennd perron* visited
the park during the day and they re
sponded liberally to the call for funds
with which to carry on their cam
paign Three thousand dollars was
raised at that time nnd the fund has
grown steadily sin>-e.
A feature of the occasion whs the
reading b\ James T Clark, [(resident
of the United Irish Societies, of a
telegram from William Randolph
Hearst. in which he warmly favored
home rule The preHdent was quick
to rrji'y. expressing the thanks of the
societies for . ne co-operation they
have received in their work from Mr.
Hearst’s papers.
British Canal Stand Scortd.
Another 'niportant feature of the
• av was the resolution prepared in
advance nnd passed by a unanimous
vote, opposing the British contention
over the Panama Canal toll*
The resolutions strongly uphold the
vle'vs of the United States that this
country, having built the canal and
paid for it without aid. should have
the right of pitming her own ships
through it without paying tolls, and
that this anion of the United States
is entirely w’thln its rights as a na
tion and is not subject to the crltl-
c! -m of any other nation
The w *rk of John Redmond, parlln.
ment-irv leader, in forcing the home
r > M l to the verge of final passage
. so was commended highly.
<>n° of the most impressive features
of the occasion wa*« the exhibition of
a full-size model of the statue of Col
onel F. Finerty. the famous soldier-
journalist and a son of whom Frin
is very proud.
Colonel Finerty wrote the story of
the Custer campaign against old Sit-
t ng Bull, and the massacre in which
Custer's whole command was wiped
out. In his later years Colonel Fin
erty was editor of the Irish - American,
and devoted all his energies to the
home rule campaign, now so nearly
won.

lain of Oregon, form» r 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 part. Mr. Maloney said "We of
the Celtic race have always struggled
for a place in the sun. and haw made
a good deal of history, hut we have
been accused in the past of not be
ing quite what we ought to tie in the
old country, and did not act to our
own interest English misgovern-
ment and oppression were solely to
blame for this.
"Now I can see a new Ireland rising
above the horizon, a nation once
again The Irish people had advano- I
**d with giant strides, now that the
long tribulation of our night Is pass
ing away "
Senator Twists Lion's Tail.
United States Senator George F.
Chamberlain of Oregon said:
M> people came to this country
to avoid persecution In the mother
country, persecution b> the English
Government Ireland had no meas
ure of freedom in those times "
Speaking on the Panama Canal, he !
said: "We have a perfect right to |
arrange to suit ourselves charges on
a canal that was made in America,
solely by American mono If Eng
land will not send her exhibits to the
San Francisco Exposition on this ac
count I would say let her keep them
at home
"If we were not careful to wlth-
tand these encroachments of the
British Government we might in the
end find ourselves in the same case
as Ireland finds herself to-day. I
foresee home rule for that country,
within the next two or three years

Irish Societies Leader
Thanks Mr. Hearst for
Support of Home Rule
( "CORDIAL telegrams of congratulation ami thanks were ex
changed between William Randolph Ilea car and James T.
Clark, president of the United Irish Societies of Chicago on
the occasion of their animal picnic recently. Mr. Hearst expressed
l.is 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 Hearst,
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 Irish 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 has been the inspiration of Parnell,
Redmond and other patriots, 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.

Likes Zone Remedy Plan.
Some time ago the suggestion was
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 Nvas 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 very
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 will 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 have 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
over an area of 46,245 square miles, in
which the crop is valued at $98,990,047
per annum, Is at first glance such an
appalling suggestion that few have
even thought to look deeper.
Sees Need of Substitute.
"We must add also to this the loss
in ginning business, which is com
puted at $2,915,318 er annum and the
loss in seed products totaling $5,633,-
662. This means that there must be
com pen.sat ion 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
-ometning else in the place of cotton
"A large crop of trained agricul
turists instructing In the cultivation
• •f 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 2.373.672 acres of
cotton land in other crop*'. Thus the
greater part of the prospective doss
can be 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
loss would not exceed $9 000,000.
It would be necessarv for the west
ern portion of the quarantine area to
remain out of cotton for possibly
three years.
'East of the proposed quarantine
line there lies an area of 112,027
square miles of territory in which
cotton <*an be produced. The average
vield per acre (1908-18111 for this
territory has been 3,051,103 bales (500
pounds), of which 32.892 biles (500
pounds was f*ea 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 value
of the equivalent amount of seed pro
duced would be $33,943,532. Thus the
annual 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 be 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 onlv sugges
tion that has yet been ottered that
holds out any promise of relief. The
cost of the zone plan is undoubtedly
great, but when the estimated cost
is compared with the estimated sav
ing. the protection of sections not
yet reached and the ultimate eradica
tion of the boll weevil throughout
the entire cotton belt, the cost does
not seem to be prohibitive. In fact,
the 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 islands, the luxuriant
foliage which affords a safe harbor and
breeding ground for the insects dur
ing winter and summer, and the fact
that there is neither extreme heat
nor extreme cold, both of which are
destructive to insect life. It is my
deliberate Judgment that if the boil
weevil reaches the sea islands, then*
will be no more sea island cotton.
1 have spoken of the aggregate
loss to the country, but the feature
that appeals 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 made to de
preciate in value, may never recover.
! The loss to him will be irreparable.
My object in writing this is in
i order that the people may know Just
1 how seriously the cotton crop is be
ing menaced, and that they may dis-
I cuss and understand the only plan
that has been offered, which promises
to accomplish the result needed. If
any other plan is suggested that
I promises to accomplish the result at
j a less cost or in a quicker manner.
1 1 will give it my heartiest indorse
ment
1 will glad to have the larm-
f rs and others <>f the South con
ider this problem carefully and
write me what Hi* \ think of it.
Wife's Illness a Sham and
Confession a Ruse.
ALBANY - , N Y. Aug. 23.—Appar
ently deadlocked until the High Court
of Impeachment meets September 18

misdemeanors against Governor Wil
liam Sulzer: both the accused Execu-

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. Tw o . 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
woman, a woman who has no voice in
the government, who is not even al
lowed to vote under 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 lavs 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
mil
On t].e other hand, it is learned that
the Frawley Uommittee, which
brought to light the charges on which
the Governor was impeached, will
make her confession the subject of ,t
rigid examination to shatter, if pos
sible.*the defense, which will be based
largely on her statement.'
In the imaAntime, 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, who declared:
"Not only Is Mrs. Sulzer’s confes
sion a sham, hut the pretended illness
of Mrs. Sulzer is a sham, of which
William Sulzer Is the chief perpe
trator.”
However, 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 vlndicaton and proof of Ills
assertion that he is being persecutes
because he would not turn over the
State to Tammany Hall.
