OWi Pus &
der the ultimate control of the elee
torate,
Muake no doubt that the Irish vote
will be a block vote against Eng
land and all things English as long
as the Irish _question is allowed to
persist. It must be remembered also
that for 40 years the cause of Ire
land has been pleaded unceasingly
in the United States by a host of
brilllant and persuasive .personali
ties, with the result that a great
body of liberal sentiment is firm in
the belief that Irish wrongs are
real and call for redress.
IRISH-AMERICAN'S SPIRIT.
Nor may it be forgotten that tlm
history of the United States, writlen
in a spirit of bumptious national-"’
ism, has not been caloulated to
make for Anglo-American under- 1
stunding. The comradeship of &
great adventure in humanily mere
ly amesthetized this feeling, ond any
definite anti-English camy®ign will
stir it to ugly Jite.
These forces, assembied and as
sembleable, given unchanged condi
tions, will hdve power to difect and
shape the foreign policies of the
United States.
What, then, is to be the attitude
of those Americans who are not of
Irish blood and who have no con
cern with the Irish question save
as it bears upon the destinies of the
United Stdtes? .
It is idle to adopt a tone of heavy
reproof and talk of “America first.”.
America has always béen first with
the Irish-American, for while love
of Erin is an unchanging passion,
his allegiance, once given, is no?:‘r
divided by a hyphen,
Men c¢f Ireland gave heart and

Not the least or many bitter
nesses of the Irish is that the Eng-
Nsh rule forces them to rise to
greatness in other lands, writing in
every language in every history a
record of capacity which If ex
pressed in their native country,
would have lifted Ireland to a high
place among the nations. |
Macauley, commenting in melan
c¢holy upon the cruel laws and re

men into exile, said:

FRANCE INDEBTED TO IRISH.
France, in particular, still rests
under a heavy burden of gratitude
ta the Irish, In 1641, in 1690 and in
1798 the French promised aid to
Ireland, but gave so nlow(l‘x and so
little that it was more a hurt
than a help,

SERVICE OF EMPIRE.
The British Empire itself has not
scrupled to take the abilities of Irish
for u#e in other countries than Ire
land, or to wear laurels won by
Irish genius.
The great Duke of Wellington
was an Irishman, and even while
England was denying the capacity
of the Gaels to rule themselves;
four Irishmen--Richard Wellesloy,
Franclg Hastings, R§hard Bourke
and Frederick Blackwood -yweje
sent 48 governor generals to hold
sway over al! India.
Guy Carleton, the greatest gov
ernor general that Canada ever
knew, was an irishman; likewise
Lord Dufferin, Jonathan Swift, that
savage satirist; Lawrence Sterne,
Kdmund Burke, Richard Brinsley
Sheridan and Goldsmith were all
Irish, and Goldsmith's “Deserted
Village” was no mere poetic vision
but a faithful plutmg an Irish
village depopulated by Koglish law,
It is the United States, however,
.that has sustained the most inti
mate relations with Ireland, just as
it has received the most and the
best from the love and loyalty of
the Irish.
From the very earliest days there
was kinship between Ireland and
the American colonies, for the same
kings were oppressing both coun
tries, the same cruel laws bore
heavily \Ton both. -
Benjamin Franklin, while in Eng
land on his futile errand of ap
peal to English justice, gave much
time and thought teo pointing out
the sameness of Irish and Ameri
can wrongs and aspirations, a
one of the first acty of the (‘olfil
nental Congress was to frame a
formal address to the people of Ire
land in which these significant par
agraphs appeared:
BRITISH GOVERNMENT CRUEL.
“We are desirous (as is natural
to injured innocence) of possessing
the iood opinion of the virtuous
and humane, * * * We know
that you are not without your
grievances, We sympathize with
you in your distress, and are
pleased to find that the design of
subjugating us has persuaded the
administration to dispense to Ire
land some vagrant rays of minis
terial sunshine,
“Kven the tender mercies of ‘the
British' Government have long been
cruel toward you. In the rich pas
tures of Ireland many hungry par
asites have fed and grown strong
to labor for itg destruction, We
hope the patient abfing of the
meek may not always be forgotten,
and Ged grant that the inquitous
schemes of extirpating liberty may
soon be defeated. * * * For the
achievement of this h"‘x! event we
confide in the good offices of our
wmnnhllom beyond the Atlantie.
Of their friendly dispositions we do
not yet despair, aware ag they must
be, that they have nothing more to
expect from the same coamon ene
my than the humble favor of being
last devoured.” y
In every one of the thirteen eolo
nies were thousands of men and
women of Irish birth or descent,
exiled from their mother land by
the oppressions of English rule, and
it was largely their hitter hatred,
as well as their: passion sos free

age to the American oomplaint
against British tyranny, s

Quick, Apt Reply
(By Interuntional News Serviee.)
LONDON, June 14— Mr, anola. nr
secrotary of the U. 8. Navy, has the gift
of the happy retort, as he showed here
tecently when, someong was twitting him
about his views on prohibition and the
absence of a rume ration in the Amerigean
navy, says The London Evening News.
~ “Do you think your navy fights better
when {t lacks spirits?” Mr. Danlels was
P‘ked.
“Certainly,” was the reply. *“A' navy
naturally fights best on water!”
A, AN
tean Revollltion by his capture of
Fort William and Mary. O'Brien,
ancther Irish exile, struck the first
blow at British sea power in 1775,
and John Barry, a Wexford man~
was virtually the founder of the
American navy. i
PRAISED BY GENERAL |
Among the generals upon w"?mm
Washington most depended, Rich
ard Montgomery, Walter Stewart,
Willlam Thompson, Stephen Moy
lan, Willlam Irvine and Richard
Butler, were Irish exiles, while
among the generals of Irish par
entage were Fdward Hand, Wash
ington's adjutant general; John
Stark, Brown, Marion, George
Clinton, afterward the first Govern
or of New York, and Knox, after
ward Secretary of the War and
Navy.
The Irish not only gave their
blood to American freedom, but
their money as welll. When the
Bank of Pennsylvania was organ
ized to supply funds for the support
of the American army, one-third of
the subscribers, representing more
than one-third the capital, were
members of the Friendly Sons of
St. Patrick, and this organization
later contributed outright the sum
of $517,500 of a total of $1,500,000.
| Washington praised this society
as “distinguished for the firm ad-’
herence of {ts members to the glo
rious cause in which we are iln
volved,” and accepted membership’
in It as offered by a unanimous
vote. »
IN WEST INDIES.
Irish aid was not eonfined to these
shores alone, however, for Count
Arthur Dillon sailed with 2200 Irish
troops from France to fight for
America in the West Indies. It was
this force’s capture of British bases
that relieved wewe men of Irish
birth or parentage, and it is esti
mated that not less than 170,000
Irishmen fought under Lincoln for
the preservation of the Union.
General Thomas Francis Meagher,
an Irish rebel, deported for life by
the English Government and es
eaped from Van Dieman's Land to
the United States, was among the
first to offer his swerd, and this
testimony, from a Britsh observar,
might well serve as a general de
scription of Irish conduct through
out the struggle:
“To the Irish division commanded
by General Meagher was principally
committed the desperate task of
bursting out of the town of Fred
ericksburg, and forming under the
withering fire of the Confederate
batteries, to attack Marye's Heights,
lowering immediately in their front.
“Never at Fontenoy, at Albuera
or at Waterloo was more undoubted
courage displayed by the sons of
Erin than during thosé six frantic
dashes which they directed against
the almost impregnable position of
their foe. The bodies, which lie in
dense masses within 40 vards of the
muzzles of Colonel Walton's guns,
are the best evidence of what man
ner of men they were who pressed
on to death with the dauntlessness
of a race which has gained glory
on a thousand battlefields.”
When the United States, drtven
to war by the outrages and ill-faith
of the Imperial German Govern
ment ealled for men to support the
ideals of democracy, the most in
stant and enthusiastic response was
from the so-ecalled Irish-Americans,
Hatred of England, handed down
from generation to generation
through seven centuries, was put
aside out of devotion to the country
of their adoption, and the records of
the War Office are thick with Irish
names and instances of Irish valor,
WAIVED EXEMPTIONS,
Prior to the adoption as the
treaty arrangements, such unnatu
ralized residents of the United
States as were citizens of a co
belligerent country had the :l:ht to
elaim exemption when drafted. The
report of the provost marshal shows
that this class walved exemption In

Just as they have fought side by

played heroic parts in the victories
of peace,
