LET US GO TO WAR.-John Bull wants fog
ying-lefs give it to him He is insolcnt---lel's
log him He is spreading his power in all quar-
ers OF the world. His armies are all over the
Earth, his ships all over the water, and his merca-
lise all over land and water. Let's hog him
i will cost us . few hundreds of ships and few
hundred millions of dollars, and few score thou
sands OF lives. Ii will turn society upside down,
1--WE rowdes and robbers the upper hand. and en-
AL upon us an arstocracy Of military heroes for
another half century. All the better for that John
Bull needs fogging. and he ought 10 have it, We
want fogging too, and il would do us good We
T. Let us turn TO and have real Irish knock
iown Who is going TO have John Bull set his
ions to growing at across the water Wen
top his noise If il is by thrusting our own heads
Town his throat. Who is going TO spend all his
ife in merchandising and manufacturing and leo
urng and preaching and printing Who wants
o hear this everlasting talk about conscience and
reason, and right and wrongi The world has
become stale and insipid. The ships ought TO be
all captured and the cities battered down. and the
world burnt up, so that we can start again. There
would be lun IN that; some interest, something TO
talk about. The newspapers are NOT worth read
ing; the murders they tell of are only one al
time, and the terrible explosions only go 10 killing
half dozen or so. We want TO men moved
down in long battaons, and artillery trains dragged
over them before they are dead. We want 10 have
Of horst trsmple on men dying, but not
dead, and see the blood spirit when they tread on
living hearts, and the vultures feed on the rich
est sort of carrion. We want, wherever we see
head, TO break 1t wherever heart heats, 10 stop
It wherever there is beauty, TO deform il and
wherever there is order, TO bring in chaos. We
rant bear these restraints which are called cvlza-
ion. "T'hs is mine, and that is yours We
want to own nothing, and rob for every thing This
world has swung out of its orbit, and come too near
o what they call heaven. We want 10 swing il as
ar the other way, until il comes hard by, il not all
'ver in, the Internal regions. III we can do no
more, we want TO fight old mother England, and
log her, and get logged ourselves; and when we
re both iogged well nigh to death, then make
realty, and have something to talk about.
