FORT WAYNE, IND, January 20, 1905.
To the Editors of The Irish Republic.
GENTLEMEN All Irishmen must feel grateful to you
for your article in this weeks REPUBLIC You utter the
conviction of all honest and candid men, that in the late
abortive negotiations for union England has had the best
of the argument More than month ago you stated, and
you have occasion to repeat it, that there will be
union until forced upon the leaders of both branches by
the patriotic and earnest behind them Everyone who
stands in the way of union be thrust aside Leaders
both sides tell their respective parsans that their branch
has saved its dignity etc. his-wheher saved or no-mat-
tiers little SO long as Ireland is left to perish.
No such union regarding past can be made
Each party claims to be the original party No branch will
or ought opass under the yoke to join the other The
union must be of two Independent parties treating each
other with forbearance and respect and making reciprocal
concessions.
AS matters stand Mr. Savage seems to have gone rthest
in the direction of concaton for he agreed to accept the
constitution of 49, If senator's oahs are obstacles unon
the senators should resign.
On you, gentlemen, mainly depends whether we shall
have union or not The Lish-Amecan and irish People Will
take opposite sides in any controversy which may arise But

at this time was appalling as there were no

Turzauske, Pole, his wife and child. They were
all terribly burned when taken from their apart

DISASTROUS COMPLICATION At HUSTER'S
POINT.

Explosion ON Board Swedish Brig Lade n
with Naphaha-rhe Oil Works Of Rockfeilows,
Andrews u Co. ON Fire-Three Lives Lost
Great Destruction Of Property.
One OF the most destructive ores that occurred in
the neighborhood OF Hunters Point L. l., in num-
Der Of years broke out last night between the hours
OF ten and eleven O'Clock. The cause or the con-
nagralion was owing to an explosion OF naphtha on
board Swedish brig which was lying at the foot
OF Ferry street. The vessel was laden with the com.
bustible material, and moment after the explosion
was heard she was wrapped in one sheet Of flames.
The news OF the disaster rapidly spread and the
agration, which lit up the heavens attracted crowds
OF persons to the river SIDE For length OF time
the fire was confined to the vessel, but eventually
the names communicated with the extensive Oil
works Of Rockfelows, Andrews Co. and Warren's
oil works, In the sheds o, which were stored some
nine or ten thousand barrels Of oil. The gnitable
quality Of the material stored there soon consigned
them and the buildings adjoining to destruction.
As soon as was practicable the vessel was hauled
out into the stream In order to prevent further de-
struction and there, after burning to the waters
Much interest was manifested as to the fate OF the
crew. as the rapidty with which the vessel was
destroyed after the explosion took place rem
on board at the time. One OF the men
was picked up on the dock, but 30 dread
fully injured rom the effects OF the ex-
ploson that he was unable to give any information
that might help in ascertaning the fate Of the
mainder OF the crew-tnree In number.
The armament was brilliantly illuminated by the
burning materials, and the names at times rose 30
high that they could be witnessed at long distance.
The scene among the shipping and along the shore
as the burning vessel was borne on with the tide
was quite executing. 1t was feared a. one time that
many OF the vessels might take fire from the lying
sparks and thus cause much more disaster than has
occurred already.
The fire ragged until long after midnight. and even
at an early hour this morning the sky reflected the
lre which was fast sudsiding
During the prevalence Of the excitement attend
ant on the conhagration man named Thomas Kane
was shot by an unknown rowdy, who was proving
around probably for some Ill purpose
1t was impossible TO obtain any correct estimate OF
the amount OF damage done owing TO the late hour
nc which the fire broke out; but the losses, II Is
thought, win not fall short OF 5000, 900.

The Democratic party are working
hard to make us believe they are
patriots. They want white mans
government and no other. They
howl niger and reputation till
they are hoarse. But, their Shiny
excrcmcnts only show the filth of
hypocracy. They button-hole the
poor laborer and tell him that white
men and white men alone have a
right to govern men. They tell him
that every white man who sets his
foot on American soil has right to
vote. They do not clamor for the
repeal of our naturalization laws. If
ii is ON account of blood that men
are fit to govern why put barrier Of
five years in the way of blood? 1t
is the grossest cringing hypocracy
that provides their party with argu-
ments. The men who run the ma
chine despise the foreigner though
they dare not tell him SO.
Who offered up our public lands in
the west by a gift to thousands of
foreigners who may choose to settle
on them but the Republican party in
Congress? Who kept these same for
eigners out of these lands until we
came into power? A Democratic
Congress and an imbecile Democrat
ic President.
Who toasted Lord Lyons, the Min
lister of the National Oppressor of
the Irish, but the New York Demo-
Gratis.
Who called the Union Soldiers
the Irish Brigade included-Lincoln
hirelings, cut threats, incendiaries,
robbers and thieves, but the whole
pack of Copperheads from La Crosse
to New Hartford? Who furnished
Maximillion with men and money
to assist in destroying the Republic OF
Mexico? Who wept when he was
shot but the cringing fawning sy-
cophants.
They are the Jacobins IF American
politics the Jesuits of political par
ties, without honesty, conceived In
corruption.

We had hoped this week to give
our readers the resultof the impeach-
ment trial, but the final vote has not
been reached. Mr.. Bingham has de-
Iivered the closing argument, and II
only remains for the Court to bring
in their verdict, which will probably
require several days. Many rumors
as to the result are afioat. The Presi-
dents friends are confident of his ac-
quital, while those on the side of the
prosecution are as equally certain oil
his conviction. A few days more
will decide this great question.

The Copperheads will get:

This estimate excludes the niger"
States. as the Democrats call them,
leaving a small margin for the Re-
publicans. Now they claim the
count. They swear by High Heaven
that the Southern States as Recon
structed shall not be allowed to go
into the Electoral College, because
their votes will be based on impartial
suffrage. They tell us besides, that
New York, Pennsylvania, Indiana
and Illinois will go Democratic. New
York hardly will. Pennsylvania we
are sure will not, for the reason that
last fall sixty two thousand Republic
cans stayed away from the polls, aud
oprg AZ 900 Democrats did the same.
This year we will carry the State by
% 600 instead of loosing it by 932, the
change from the former year being
the stay-at- homes, and the Phiiadei-
phia Republicans who voted for
Judge Sharswood because he was
from that city, and better lawyer
than his competitor. There is moth
ing inside of the Democratic party
that can swing Ohio, Indiana and
Illinois. The Democrats nominated
their best men this Spring In Wiscon-
sin for Supreme Judges and were
beaten by Republican gain OF over
1000 on Fairchild's vote last fall.
Logan beat Dickey in Illinois, In
1865. SIS, sS7, and there is not enough
of Democratic thunder in that State
TO unearth Copperheads sufficient to
carry the State. In Indiana, at the
last general election, we beat them
over IA 900, and will roll up heavier
majority this year. This 10 enough
for the figures In the old States VINO
clung to the Union or have since been
restored. Now for tho South. There
will be 10 electoral votes in the ten
re-organized States. Seven-tenths OF
these will be cast for the Republican
candidate, leaving the Democratic
count but a cypher. Ii il scarcely
worth while to notice the rawlings OF
those political maniacs who constant
Dy threaten us with vengeance II we
attempt to carry out our plan OF Res-
toration. They foamed and frothed
ss much when Brownlow's State

The Republican party in this coun-
try represent the people who are alive

suffer no insane, mad, vulgar, pseudo
reyoiutionist to frighten them from
their convictions. 1861 was the time
to fight. Revolution from that side
